Inn was strolling through the school courtyard when he saw Pathn sitting on a bench, absorbed in his phone. Inn hesitated for a moment, but then decided to approach him.

"Hey, P’Pathn, have you heard about the Vet's scholarship?" Inn asked.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrH6qxVoiX
Pathn looked up from his phone, his eyebrows raised in surprise. "No, I haven't. What's that?”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWS0ZxpDSb
"It's a scholarship for students who want to pursue veterinary medicine," Inn explained. "I thought you might be interested in it, since you love animals and all."

Pathn nodded thoughtfully. "Thanks for telling me about it, Inn. I'll look into it.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwPJC7Ovi5
They chatted for a few more minutes, discussing their plans for the evening. Pathn asked if Inn wanted to play basketball later.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IzbBNX81U
Inn's expression fell a little. "Sorry, I can't," he said, looking apologetic. "Froze and I are practicing a song for the 'All Activity Day'. We need to get it perfect.”

Pathn frowned slightly. "Ah, I see," he said, disappointment evident in his voice. "Well, maybe another time then.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qmLDorusU
Inn nodded, looking understanding. "Yeah, definitely. We can play basketball next week or something," he said, trying to cheer Pathn up.

Pathn nodded back, a small smile returning to his face and watched as Inn walked away. As Inn passed by a group of girls, they greeted him excitedly and giggled as he passed by.

Pathn couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. Inn seemed to be well-liked by everyone, especially girls. Pathn, on the other hand, had always been more reserved and kept to himself.

He shook off the feeling and resumed scrolling through his phone. As he did, he saw a notification from his judo team's group chat. They were organizing an evening practice session, and Pathn knew he had to go.

Later that evening, after a grueling judo practice, Pathn and his teammates were feeling exhausted but accomplished. As they were getting ready to head home, Pathn's best friend Ton brought up the topic of Inn and basketball.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xALMLoosz
"So, how's it like playing basketball with Inn?" Ton asked.

"It's great, he's really good. And he's a nice guy," Pathn replied, trying to sound nonchalant.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qEFwe3RXE
Ton raised an eyebrow. "Is that all? He's not hot or anything?”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmSPSXhBZT
Pathn rolled his eyes. "I don't know, I don't really think about that kind of stuff.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1vepKbumr
Ton grinned mischievously. "Come on, don't tell me you've never looked at him and thought, damn, he's fine.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuIGw8OLkF
Pathn chuckled, feeling slightly uncomfortable. "No, I really haven't. I'm not interested in that kind of thing.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm38xDsYGK
Ton shrugged. "Suit yourself, man. But just remember, it's not a bad thing to appreciate good looks.”

Pathn nodded, still feeling awkward. He bid goodbye to his teammates and headed home, eager to relax after a long day. As he entered his house, his dog ran up to greet him, wagging her tail excitedly. Pathn smiled and crouched down to pet her.

After a few minutes of playing with his dog, Pathn's younger sister Pim walked in and greeted him with a warm smile.

"Hey, bro. How was your day?" Pim asked.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6SxLwIP0L
"It was good. Just had a tough judo practice," Pathn replied.
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMABERNIql
Pim nodded sympathetically. "Well, it's good that you're getting better. Hey, do you want to help me with dinner? We're making your favorite, pad thai.”
285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJFw3YzqIZ
Pathn grinned. "Sure thing. Let's get to work.”

As they worked together in the kitchen, Pathn couldn't help but feel grateful for his sister. She was always there for him, even when he didn't show it
