Lately, It's Winter Season.

Chapter 16 - They say soulmates often dream of each other.

It's the right temperature, neither too hot nor too cold. I was in the park, which was unfamiliar to me. The surrounding atmosphere is shady and quiet. The right hand is warmer when someone is holding mine, especially when we're seeing people. Smaller than walking next to each other, holding ice cream, and eating deliciously. For a while, it seemed like I was looking at him, so I turned to smile.

"Do you want to eat?"

"No," I shook my head and extended my other hand to wipe the corner of the other party's messy mouth. That sweet smile made my heart beat hard. Send a smile back without knowing it. The same hand moved up a little more to rub the white cheeks.

"Do you rub the ice cream that you just wiped on your cheek?"

"No, who will tease you like that?"

"It's you." Cold pouted, making his cheeks slightly puffy. Raise your hand to rub. My cheeks are strong. "It's good, not sticky."

"I told you I'm not pretending," I replied. We kept walking along the road and chatting happily. After a long time, we stopped at the edge of the garden to sit and watch the sunset together. I don't know what inspired me to confess my love. The other party's face turned a deep shade of red. He was so embarrassed that he couldn't do anything at all. I just nodded slowly.

... Cute

"Ah... Ugh"

"What about you?" I deliberately asked back because I wanted to hear the answer.

"Craddling"

"Huh?"

"Craddling"

...!!!

I was startled because of the loud noise near my ear. I turned around and found that it was Mick who snored loudly, and I thought it was a lion roaring. I slept with a lion. I couldn't help but pick up the pillow and hit him once. The person who was hit turned to the other side and looked annoyed. I have to be annoyed with you, animal. People who are having a good dream. Is Cold about to confess his love?

Additionally, the atmosphere remains very good. Even if you can't remember where it is, sigh. I lost the opportunity to hear the word love from your mouth from now on. When will I have a chance to dream like this again....

Why do I dream of the Cold? Is it because I miss him too much? Or because he's thinking about me too? Probably the latter.

Nao may want to confess to me that he loves me.

I giggled in my throat in the silence of the dim room. After a while, I heard Mick's movements, followed by the same snoring.

"Straddle, ugh, straddle"

There is also a hiccup rhythm. It's gone.

Cold wouldn't snore like this. Cold would be a soft sound of breathing. When you sleep, it's a cherished moment. Look at him and feel calm.

"Craddling"

Wow! Can you put a pillow to your face, you bastard, Mick?

Hey!

"Mick, turn to sleep on your side." I shook his body so that he would turn to sleep on the other side. At least, sleeping on your side may be better. It forgot to wake up with sleepy eyes before falling asleep again. "Mick, you snore so loudly, you animal lying on your stomach."

"Uh, hmm, hmm," became like chewing something. Instead, are you chewing your own tongue?

I let out a sigh. Turned to lie on my side, turned my back to him and covered my ears with a pillow. I could only curse in my heart irritably that the animal is asleep.

"Mick, you were so bad last night, do you realise?"

"What?"

"You're snoring like the sky is going to collapse, motherfucker." I couldn't help but scold. It was 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. All three of us woke up. My words made Mick laugh dryly.

"Sorry for not realising it at all"

"You didn't hear me, Field?" I turned to ask. I was shaking my head.

"No, I'm just there."

"Damn it," I complained. "I'm having a good dream and dreaming of the cold. We walked hand in hand in the garden. The atmosphere is so good. Cold was about to confess his true love to me. Choose to make a crackling sound. The lion just roars. I'm confused. I think I'm sleeping with a Lion," Mick laughed out loud.

"I'm sorry, my sister complained that I snored loudly. Until now, I've asked my father to separate the room for me"

"Well, it's worth it."

"Is it that loud?" Mick raised his eyebrows and asked. "I don't think it's that loud, I guess."

"Next time, I'll record it for you. But don't have a next time. Sigh, it's so bad." I sighed boredly. When I consolied my eyes to sleep successfully, I didn't dream about anything else. It's awful. "Why are you dreaming? What are you guys? It's an omen?"

"You must be thinking about the cold too much."

"Huh?" I nodded in agreement. If you don't miss cold, who will you miss? "But in a dream, it's perfect. It's very realistic. Even if it's a place you can't remember."

"Where is it?" Mick asked.

"The park, but I don't know where it is. The atmosphere is perfect."

"It's cold, he might be missing you, too."

"Well, you think like me. If you don't think about it, there's no other reason. Is that right?"

"Really," Mick nodded and made a serious face. "The mind is connected. Soulmate."

"Hey, Mick, you keep talking." I accidentally hit my hand on Mick's shoulder with a shyness that I can't keep. Smiling widely, with a feeling of unease, it collapsed in my heart. Are you a soulmate? Damn it.

"It's true, he said that soul mates often dream of each other."

"So it means that it's cold and dreaming of me too, fuck."

It's possible, it's the same situation as yours.

"You animal," I said, unable to stop smiling. My hands twisted with embarrassment. Just thinking about it makes me happy. "Mick, keep talking, you. Who would be crazy to the point of being a soulmate? The soulmate is crazy. What are you hoping for?"

"Sigh," Field sighed, "I don't expect this. You bastard"

"So, how can I go to fight the winter? In a cold dream, he’s still so cute. How can I resist the cuteness of the real one?" I sat, twisting around without paying attention to Field's face. The more I imagined the dream last night, the happier I was. My hands were warm. Even in my dream, I still ate Mumm until my mouth was dirty.

"Who brought hot water to splash my friend, motherfucker?"

"Why, Field?" I made a mocking voice. "Never dreamed of Nuea Adi. Well, you miss many people. I dreamed that I thought it was a meeting. Let's get together."

"Kwai" Field said that he was ready to laugh. Mick himself told the Same, "I don't have anything to anyone anymore."

"Yes, believe me." I'm ready to shake my head.

"Oh, so you don't like the north alone?" Mick raised his eyebrows and asked, "Wow.

We are more sincere."

"Sincere," Field said in a stiff voice. "I'm serious about the far north, but I'm still not dating anyone?"

"So talk to many people?" I asked.

"Well, he said hello to me."

"Well, you're a handsome guy. You can choose the pattern of the flirtatious person. He said hello to himself. I can't help it." I kept teasing. I used to say that Field is a spacious person. I'm not kidding. I know a lot of people. Many people like him. There are many people to talk to. It's like flirtatious, my friend. Sigh, if you want to flirt like a field friend, I'd rather die.

"Where did you get a lot of people to talk to?" Mick raised his eyebrows.  “I Talk to You Alone."

"Well, I'm talking alone," Field said, "I mean, you're talking alone. So I saw a heavy chat on the right. Recently, I was blocked."

"Go to hell, motherfucker," Mick scolded so hotly that Field and I laughed. Why is it not balanced at all? One person can choose another person they like, but they decide not to talk to me.

"Well, but why did Mick come to sleep in the field room?" I asked as if I had just realised that Mick usually has to go home. He rarely comes to sleep in the field room.

"I'm studying for the exam."

"What is the exam?"

"... Oh," Mick frowned in confusion, "Don't you know?"

"What do you know?"

"It's a midterm exam." He made a slightly stunned face. "Oh, how can you not know? The exam was scheduled a long time ago."

"Oh, I forgot." I'm honest. I remember that the midterm exam is approaching, as I've been feeling increasingly distracted lately. My mind is not with my body. It makes me completely forget. "When is the first day of the exam?"

"This Monday"

"Huh?" I bounced and sat back straight in shock. "Today is Saturday?"

"Yes"

"Sabai", I shrugged my shoulders. Two days before the exam. "What's the exam?"

"Biology, Thai language, basic math, society"

"Shit", I replied. The midterm can be solved. Don't be serious. Besides, the content is not difficult at all.

"Tiger" Field moved closer, looking excited like he couldn't keep it.

"No," I said first. The other party stopped, "No, next. Don't call it a Tiger."

"Why?"

"It will let the cold call alone," Mick replied. I nodded. Field frowned. "I don't know what to do. It's strange. We've been calling him like this since kindergarten, Field, right?"

"Eh, what's wrong with you? Are you trying to make it look special?"

"Yes"

"After a while, he will wonder why you let only him call you Tiger." Field replied, squinting, "It's okay to do it."

"No, ah," I started to be self-centred again. "Let's call you alone. He won't notice. You guys try to call Tiger. Sometimes Suea can be called Tiger, but when we are together, let's call me Tiger."

"I'm not used to it." Field is still bullish. "For me, your name is Suea. Not a Tiger."

"You can't make a big deal."

"Well, there's no end to arguing with you, Tiger."

"What's up?"

"We went to tutor at Nao Dee's house," Field smiled. The subjects taken are the same for the entire grade level. The content is the same. Why can't we tutor together? You said, well, I'm going to ask Nuea to tutor you. North is good at studying, right? How are we going to go? The more tutoring, the better."

"The plan to approach the north?" I narrowed my eyes. This individual is attempting to approach the north well. "Won't it be strange?"

"It's not strange," Field said, "I know Nao. In addition, I'm addicted to him. Let's go. There is no strangeness at all."

"Well," I nodded. "It's good. Hey, you guys, I can go. The person who tutors cold will look cool. Like a smart man"

"How, what are you going to teach others?" Field asked back. "I don't see this semester. What the hell are you going to study hard? The homework is just copying me. You took the exam to collect points”.

"I just didn't mean it. So I'll study hard." If I'm good at studying, I have to be cool in his eyes. Become a reliable man. Not a sly person who waits for him to comfort me. Well, it's time to save my image. "Let’s pack up and go eat at the restaurant. Go to tutoring"

"Is it good to call first?" Mick offered, "Call and ask first in case the north may not be tutoring or busy"

"Well, it's true, Tiger, Tiger, my friend, you call now."

"Did you call?" I began to hesitate. "But think about it, if I have to meet you. Can I be smooth? Is it not too fast? I just got ready yesterday."

"This is for us to be with. It's a good starting point," Field said. I nodded, not very confidently. Look at the cold name that Mem put in. Take a deep breath before pressing the call. Not long after, the call was received.

Ra... I have received it.

(What's up)

"Ah, you," my voice trembled a little. I coughed a little to adjust the tone and make it sound normal.

"Are you interested in tutoring?" But it turns out that it looks too sober. Mick and Field held back a big laugh until I had to turn to look at the hammer. 

(Midterm tutoring? Well, Dan is going to tutor me in the afternoon.)

"Ah, oh, oh, so, uh, I don't tutor myself."

(Oh, you can)

"Can you come with Mick and Field?"

(Yes, my friend is coming)

"Who is it?"

(Po and Tul, the bastards are going to come, but I think it's chaotic. We won't be tutoring each other.)

"Okay, it's afternoon, right?"

(Yes)

"Okay", then I hung up. I sighed in relief.

Turned to look at the two people who were giggling. I couldn't help but slap each of their heads. "What the hell are you laughing at?"

"Your voice is like a Chinese movie hero, asshole, I'm, are you interested in tutoring?" Field laughed and made a mocking sound. I made a sour face at it.

"But it's cold, he doesn't sound surprised at all." It's said, "It's so weird.

The beast, since the first time you stuttered, and the sound was shaking.

"I told you it was stupid."

"Don't say it's cold. It's cold, it's not stupid. It's just a little honest." I defended not letting anyone say it was cold. "But after coming, it's smooth, right?"

"Well, it's hard to behave normally," Field said.

"Tui, the field animal. When I was with the north, my face and ears were red. I walked with my head down." I couldn't help but tease. I made it like someone else. I was helpless.

"He called it deliberately, showing that he likes it."

"Yes," I replied sarcastically, "Nao said in the afternoon, what should I do?"

"You can go eat and wait. I'm getting hungry," Mick said. "Go eat at Nao's restaurant. Okay, I'll study in the afternoon, but it doesn't mean I can't go to you first."

"Will it be good? Won't it look strange?"

"What the hell is so weird? What the hell are you going to do?" Field asked.

Out of emotion, "Normally sleeping at his house for a month, I never feel strange."

"It's not smooth," I pouted, "It's like we want to go. Also."

"Or don't want to?"

"Well... I want to," I replied softly.

"You don't have to worry about whether it's smooth or not. In the past, it was so bad. The Tiger doesn't worry about the beast," Field sighed.

************************

Amid the people's cheers, the light from the bright spotlight shone down on me. The announcement was called by name by the MC. I walked along the way and jumped up on the stage. Raised my hand to call for louder cheers than before. Soon, the competitor wearing a red robe approached the stage. Not waiting long, I began to lift the first place. I took a deep breath to wake up. When the rhythm was precise, I was clear that the first fist was full.

"Ouch!!" The loud cry startled me, and I got up quickly.

Dream...

"It hurts, Duan," the owner of the cry just now said. Dan put his hand on his nose and made a painful expression. I opened my eyes wide in shock when I remembered what I had done. Before I could say an apology, Dan had a nosebleed.

"Hey, shit, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, 

I think I'm nervous. I'm trying to hold Dan's hand out of the way so that I can see the wound. I'm afraid that Dan will hurt more than before. What the hell am I doing? Dreaming that I'm boxing. When punching, the opponent in my dream punched the person lying next to me. "Dan"

Dan didn't answer anything, just trying to get out of bed. I was about to go in to support, but it turned out to be a mess. I was helpless. My wooden hands were shaking all over.

"Dan, don't be anything. Dan, are you angry? Sorry, Moon didn't mean to be angry. You can punch me back." When I saw that the other person was silent, it made me even more heartbroken. I slowly follow Dan down. "If Dan doesn't want to punch, Duan can punch himself."

"Stupid boy," Dan turned around and said softly, ready to tap my head. He walked to get a tissue to wipe the blood and pick up the ice from the refrigerator to join me. While sitting on the sofa, he glanced at me a little. As soon as he was looked at, his body became stiff without realising it.

"Dreaming of boxing. In my dream, I was so excited. Bloody. Pumping," I said in my mouth, as my voice was muffled. "Does it hurt a lot?"

"Hurt"

"Sorry"

"It's okay."

"Aren't you angry?"

"I can't get angry," Dan said, ready to stretch out his hand and gently rub his head. That made me feel. Indescribably overwhelmed.

"Dan, why are you so kind?" I bowed my head to rub it. I rub the other person's hand with my head. Going back and forth begging, until Dan let go of his hand. "Is it better?"

"Yes, it's good, not too strong."

"But in my dream, I put it in full force."

"That's a dream," Dan said. Wait for a while for the bleeding to stop, and then take each other back to the room. Now it's half past two in the morning. I continue to sleep. Dan is reading.

"Why don't you take a nap for a little longer? Don't you usually wake up and read at three o'clock?"

"I can't sleep anymore. Besides, I have an exam on Monday."

"The exam is indeed on Monday," I complained about the doorbell. Which knowledge will you take to the exam? What the hell are you studying without knowing anything? But the worry about the exam didn't last long. I fell asleep shortly after.

Since the shop was closed, I considered waking up late, but I woke up at eight o'clock. I don't know why I woke up. Because before my friends came to tutor, it was in the afternoon. But if I went back to sleep, I couldn't sleep. I walked down and saw my mother and Dan going out.

"Mom, where are you going?"

"Mom is going to the market. Today, the shop is closed, so I'm going for a walk for A little bit," my mother said, "You can scoop the rice and eat it. After eating, soak it for mom."

"Yes," I nodded. "Is Dan going to go?"

"Do you want to go together?" Dan asked.

"I'm lazy. I'll stay at home."

"So, do you want anything?" My mother asked. I shook my head instead of answering. "What about the snacks?"

"Oh, let me buy some snacks. My friend will come in the afternoon. Exam tutoring, too."

"Okay," Mom replied first. The two of them will walk out to hitchhike two rows in front of the road. I walked to the kitchen to scoop rice and sit down to eat. When I finished eating, I put it in the refrigerator as my mother told me. I intend just to stir my feet and play. She didn't tell me where to soak it. After a while, Suea called and said that he would come to tutor. Soon after, the phone rang. Suea called again.

"What's up?"

(Uh, it's cold. Is the shop closed today?)

"Yes, take a break, why?"

(We are going to come to eat)

"Oh, the shop is closed, but there is rice in the house."

(There are Mick and Field with you)

"Well, then it probably won't be enough."

(Ah, then we can eat at another restaurant)

"Okay," I replied before hanging up. 

While waiting for others to come, I went to wipe the marble horse table in the backyard and sweep the leaves. After twenty minutes, Tiger called again and told me to open the door in front of the house. I went out to open it. It was Suea, Field and Mick. As soon as I saw Field, I couldn't help but squint my eyes at him suspiciously.

"Don't think you can sit close to the land."

"Choose."

"Oh, scold me again."

"I just came to your house," Mick said while sweeping his eyes around "Where does the Tiger usually sleep?"

"Sofa", I answered while pointing to the sofa located in the middle of the house.

"So why is the shop closed today?" Mick asked, "I came to eat at your restaurant to the fullest at first"

"Rest, mom said she was tired."

"What about the north?" Field offered to ask.

"Going to the market with mom"

"Oh, where is the tutoring so I can put the bag first?"

"The backyard," I said, ready to take the three of them out to the marble horse table in the back of the house. They put the bag down and sat, waiting.

"The garden is beautiful," Field praised after sweeping his eyes to look around.

"Of course, it’s Dan's garden," I shrugged. Most of the time, Dan will be the one who takes care of and waters the plants every day. As for me, I have to do labour, such as digging the soil or lifting things. "I go to the market and buy more trees."

"Well, let's go to the bathroom."

"Walking in, I saw the bathroom. It's on the first floor," I said.

"Well, I just saw it."

"I will go with you. It hurts, too," Field said.

"But the bathroom has only one room."

"I'll go stand and wait for it," Field said before the two of them got up, leaving only me and the two Tigers. He was sitting on the chair next to him with a not very good attitude. He looked tense while frowning at those two guys.

"Have you recovered from stress?" I asked because I remember that yesterday, Field said that he was stressed, so he acted strangely at the game store. The Tiger turned around and looked in panic after hearing the question, sitting with his hands together and shaking his legs.

"What's wrong with you? You can talk."

".. Uh, I"

"Hey, is it okay?" I raised my hand and gently touched his shoulder. As soon as my hand touched it, it stood up suddenly, and I was shocked. "What?"

"A... I'd like to go to the bathroom for a moment."

"Mick and the field can come back first, so you don't have to stand and wait for the bathroom. There is only one room."

"You can go and ask to enter first."

"It hurts so much-oh", I looked at the Tiger who ran back into the house. What's so hurried? Or is it diarrhoea? Why do you look tense? It's diarrhoea. Well, there should be mineral salts here. Let's go, I'll be shocked to death.
