Can's face looked cheerful when coming out of the locker room. He even took the time to joke around with his team members and greet everyone who passed us. He did not forget to say encouraging words to anyone who looked sad because of their loss, but when he got to my car, his expression changed 180⁰. Theere was no more laughter and joy. Can immediately put the seatbelt on and looked out.

"Can ... Can ..."

"Hmm ..."

"Where do you want to eat?"

Can just shook his head weakly.

"Can, you usually eat a lot after practice. You competed so hard earlier, so you should to eat more than usual. Are you not hungry?"

Can shook his head weakly in response.

To be honest, I never persuaded anyone. Can is the first and only person I have ever persuaded. Usually he is easily persuaded by food, so I thought he will give in easily.

"Can, you can choose any restaurant you want, eat whatever you like, eat as much as you want. I wouldn't protest. Like ..."

"I SAID I DON'T WANT TO EAT!!!! I WANT TO WIN, AI TIN!!! WIN!!!! NOT EAT!!!!!"

This wasn't the first time Can yelled at me, but this time it was different.

"Can, this is just one match. You still have a chance next time. So, don't worry too much, try to be patient and do better next time.

Suddenly Can turned and looked at me sharply.

"It's not about me, Tin. I don't care about myself for this lost."

"Then, why are you like this?," I asked confused.

"Because of the seniors. This is their last match here. We all know what the seniors are doing for us secretly. We know they always come home later than us, often to meet to negotiate game strategies and how to train us. We know it all, Tin. And do you know what we did behind their backs? "

I just shook my head.

"We practiced behind them. We jointly rented fields almost every day. That's why in the past few weeks I've often disappeared from you."

Apparently this was the reason. When I asked Can, he just answered "I'll tell you later after the match. So don't think of anything. Trust me, Tin". And I never asked again afterwards, waiting for today.

"We did our best for the seniors. We are always joking at training and being spoiled off the field to them, but we never joke while competing. We know what we are risking there. Maybe for others, it was nothing, it was just a small match, but we all know how important this match is for the three of them. "

I haven't heard Can talk long and serious like this. And I like this side of Can too.

"Do you know, Tin? The three of them have joined Chulla's team since they entered campus, and they've won the Campus League for 2 years in a row. The three of them are known as 3 monsters on the field. But what happens now? We lost the last game. We lost, Tin. Lost!!! "

"Didn't P'Techno say that you shouldn't blame yourself? Didn't he ask you to blame him if there was someone to blame? Isn't it ....."

Can shouted louder than before and immediately opened the seatbelt, preparing to open the door. Luckily I immediately pulled him back and hugged him.

"Sorry Can. Sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I'm just worried about you. I'm sorry, Can."

"How can we deal with them tomorrow? How, Tin? Sob.... Sob..... sob ....."

Finally Can's defense collapsed. He cried heartily on my shoulder. Luckily it was getting dark and there were no other cars here, so I let Can cry at his will. All I could do for now is give him a shoulder to cry on and rub his back, hinting that I will always be by his side.

"I want to go home, Tin," he said after he stopped crying.

"Are you sure you want to go home like this? You look very messy, Can."

"Can I stay at your apartment?"

"Of course you can, Cannie."

"Hmm ..."

"Can we stop by to buy a meal first? I don't have a stock of food at the apartment."

"Hmm ..."

"You just sleep first, then I'll wake up when we arrive."

"Hmm ..."

Usually I would be angry if Can repeatedly answered me like that, but I had to understand the situation of his heart that was in chaos.

We stopped by Can's favorite sushi restaurant and ordered several servings. Even though he said he didn't want to eat, later tonight he would be noisy because of starvation.

Tin has a private parking lot with an elevator connected directly to his room or rather I say, his floor. Because that floor is specifically for him. Just like Kengkla, Tin's room is located at the top, with a helipad on the roof.

Tin did not have the heart to wake Can who slept very soundly with visible physical and mental fatigue. Luckily, Can's body was so small, Tin easily carried him bridal style.

Arriving at the apartment, Tin put Can on the couch to sleep. Can didn't bathe after the match, so Tin had to wake him up to take a shower before going to bed. It was not because Tin was disgusted or didn't like Can's aroma. He just didn't want Can to feel uncomfortable and wake up in the middle of the night. Tin had finished taking a shower before waking Can.

"Can ... Cannie ... Baby ... wake up ......"

"Eeehmmm ... Where are we, Tin?"

Can's face when waking up looked very adorable.

"At my apartment. You better wake up first, then take a shower with warm water. Meanwhile, I'll prepare food for you. And these are the pajamas for you to wear."

"Eeehh ... How come the pajamas are so small. Who owns these ?," asked Can who was confused to see the size of the pajamas in his hand.

"The pajamas are yours. When you 'disappeared' a few days ago, I took the time to buy you pajamas and clothes. So if you stay here, you don't have to bother carrying a change of clothes."

"Ah... I see. Ok, I'll take a shower first."

"How about if we shower together, Cannie?"

"Seeing your appearance, I'm sure you've taken a shower," Can said as he passed.

💠🔻💠🔺💠🔻💠🔺💠🔻💠🔺💠🔻💠🔺💠

"WOW ..... Sushi!!!! When did you buy it, Tin? How come I didn't know?"

"You're sleeping like a dead person, Can."

"Hehehe hehehe....."

"Let's eat, I'm hungry too."

"Eh yeah, I forgot to ask. How did I get here? Don't tell me that you carried me?"

"Your body is small but very heavy."

"So you really carried me? Why didn't you just wake me up?"

"I told you before, you slept like a dead person. I couldn't bear to wake you up."

"Next time, wake me up. Don't carry me."

"Eh why?"

"You said earlier that I was heavy," he said sullenly.

"I'm kidding, my Cannie. You're as light as a feather."

"Hhmm ..."

"Hey, I'm not lying. You're so light."

"Hhhmmm ...," he replied curtly and was still busy with sushi.

I immediately pulled him and sat him on my lap. He struggles a little, but I didn't care about it.

"What the hell, Tin? Am I a little kid? I'm heavy. Your feet will sore later."

"Hahahahaha ... Baby, you are so cute."

I couldn't bare to not kiss his puffy white cheeks. Can pretend to remove my kiss marks on his cheeks, but he no longer struggled on my lap. I put my hand around his waist and leaned my head on his arm.

"Baby, don't be sad anymore. If you are sad, I feel sad too. Hhhmmm...??"

"Ai Tin, why are you so spoiled now? Where is the arrogant Ice Prince?" Can mocked.

"The Ice Prince is only for other people. But for you, I am the Prince of Lovers, love slave of Cannie."

"Hhhhhuuuueeeekkkkksssssss ...... You made my appetite disappear, Tin."

"Hahahahahahaha ...... The important thing is you're not sad anymore, Baby."

"Hhmmm ... Thank you, Tin," said Can while leaning his head on my chest.

The existence of Can near me like this, in a warm hug, provided comfort and peace. It's a alien feeling for me, but I like this foreign feeling. As long as there is Can, I'm sure my life will be fine.

"I love you so much, Cannie ..." I said as I tightened my arms.
