Secretly Loving Him [MewGulf]

"Hey, have you seen a piece of paper? Around this size?" Gulf asked Mild as he gestures his hands to show him the size of the paper he is looking for.

"Nah. Why? I have plenty, I can give you if you want," said Mild who is about to get a paper on his bag and give it to Gulf.

"It's not just an ordinary paper, Mild. It's special." Gulf replied while still busy looking for it. Under the table, under the chair, beside, in front, above. Even if he use all the prepositions there are, still it is nowhere to be found. 

"How come that this paper has become special when I am not? Is that paper more special than I am, Gulf? Answer me." He jumped in front of Gulf. It had Gulf stopped but he just nodded yes at Mild.

"What????" Disappointed, Mild went back to his seat and rests his head on his desk.  "Hoping you don't find it. Hmp." Mild said and then closed his eyes.

"Are you looking for me?" 

And then another guy jumps in front of Gulf. When Gulf has landed his eyes on him, he smiled like an idiot. But sorry to burst your bubble, dear, but you are not what Gulf is looking for.

It is the comic strip he's been working on since yesterday. He is about to finish it today but surprisingly, it was already gone.

"No," firmly Gulf said without even looking at Podd. Yes, it is Podd and he is following Gulf even if he is being avoided by him. 

All he wants is to find his precious comic strip. But why is he given a guy who just knows nothing but to pester him?

Until Gulf gasps. His mouth was dropped open and Podd was so startled to see Gulf's reaction.

"Why? Why? Why? What happened, 1000 baht?" Podd immediately went to Gulf and asked why is he like that all of a sudden. But Gulf isn't answering him.

"Oh my goodness. What if P'Mew had already seen that comic strip? Surely, P'Mew will think I am such a weirdo. I will be a dead meat. Oh no no no no. This is so embarrassing. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

Podd was just about to shake Gulf whose hands are both on his face trying to hide his embarrassed face when their next subject teacher came.

"Sawasdee krub. Okay, let us start our class."

Podd had to push Gulf to his seat because he is still stunned at the moment. Mew had also just arrived and that was the time when the imaginary block of ice surrounding Gulf broke.  

"P'Mew uhm." 

Gulf tried calling Mew while still facing front. He doesn't want to caught the attention of their teacher that's why. Mew just hummed to him but is also curious about why Gulf is calling him. He has an idea that it will be because of the comic strip that is now in his possession.

"Have you seen a paper... Uhm..." He is hesitant. How can he tell Mew that he is looking for a paper where the two of them are drawn on it? Of course he can't.

"N-Nothing. Nothing." 

And with that, Mew is certain it is about the comic strip. He can't stop himself from smiling in his head. It is not because he is toying with Gulf but because he finds it cute when Gulf suddenly becomes so silent like that. Like, he's guilty of something or what. 

"I guess I'll just keep this for you, Gulf."  said Mew as he gropes for the comic strip in his pocket.

At last, the class for today has finished. But the anxious Gulf just couldn't stop thinking about his lost comic. He is now on his way home. 

"If it is really lost, I just wish that it will be lost forever. And will never be found, again." and heaves a deep sigh.

"What's with the long face? You still haven't seen what you are looking for, huh?"
