_Do you have any plans for tomorrow?

_Huh? Tao’s question snapped me out of my daze. I was still in the office working late, as usual, trying to finish an article that was supposed to hit the printers tomorrow. Fortunately, for me, Tao decided to stay too, to keep me companied. I was grateful for my best friend, I didn’t want to stay alone in the dimly light office and I appreciated the sacrifice he had to make just to stay with me. But my lack of attention to him was apparently getting on his nerves.

_I wouldn’t have stayed if I knew you were going to ignore me the whole time. Tao let out with an exasperated sigh. I felt guilty for dragging him into this mess, so I tried to make it up to him.

_I’m so sorry, Tao I’m just trying to finish this article quickly so we can finally leave. You were saying?

_I said, do you have any plans for tomorrow?

_No, I don’t think I have. Kris is going to Jeju to meet up with some old friends so I’m free. You have something in mind, Panda?

_”It’s been a long while since we last hung out together. Ever since you met Kris, you have no time for me at all. I can barely see you outside of work and at the office you are always busy. I miss you.” He finished his sentence with a pout that made my heart flutter. Tao can be very persuasive when he wants too, and very cute, for that matter, something that I miss a lot, considering that Kris was far, far from being cute.

_”I miss you too my panda.
