For the first ti when Hyson noticed that he was different, he had done the mistake of ntioning it to Raelle. And the world's best-est best friend answered him with, 'No wonder you managed to stay with for so long. From the beginning, you weren't normal either.'
However, later that sa best friend asked him in detail why he thought he was different. And even took him to a doctor. Later when it was confird that he was an asexual, he wasn't even surprised.
And since he didn't feel any surprise, it didn't change anything in his life either.
"What's with this serious mood?" Hyson chuckled at the reaction of everyone around him. "It's not like I'm sick. Just like people are heterosexual, bi-sexual, I'm just asexual. There is no need to look so sad."
"We are not sad," Pei Zi Hong took the lead to talk.
"Yes, we are just shocked," Fang Yiwen added.
"It seems I'm the only one who is wondering how to help our Xiao Fai," said Huang Shuyi.
"He doesn't need help," Lin Zhen's voice took a sharp turn.
"Lin Zhen, he needs to play the role of soone who devoted his life to love! But he doesn't even know love! Of course, he needs help!"
When Huang Shuyi said it like that, only then did they realize that their original conversation started from this topic. They gathered around to help Hyson find the feeling of love to help him connect better with his role. But now...
"Yi Ge is absolutely right," Hyson also spoke up. "I do need help."
"Yue Fai, you don't think so much about it," said Lin Zhen patiently. "You have the script. You should go through it. First, understand your character well. As for the right feelings, we'll co up with a plan."
Fang Yiwen, "Yes, he is right. You must be tired. Go and take a rest."
As Hyson was pushed towards his room, he didn't resist. He could tell that after sending him away, the four of them planned on having a eting. He was amused by their antics but didn't say anything about it. Instead, as he was told, he went to his room.
After washing up, he slid under the blanket and took out the script he received today. After staring at the title for a long ti, he picked up his phone and made a call.
As soon as the call connected, he whined, "My head hurts."
"Oh, it seems your brain is finally trying to comprehend its own stupidity," ca the prompt reply from the other side. "Good for you. Finally, you're progressing sowhere."
Hyson's lips curved up even though he could clearly hear that his intelligence was being questioned but the person questioning his intelligence was the genius. So, if that genius was the one calling him stupid indirectly then one can't possibly argue.
But just because he accepted it, didn't an he was willing to silently take it all. No way he was going down without a fight!
"I really wish I could turn back the ti. I want to 9 years old again," he said.
"Why? Got new ideas to ruin your life?"
"No, this ti I'll choose to turn left on the road where I lost my way. That way, I'd be able to avoid eting you."
Raelle was silent for a minute before she said, "When you're bound to et the right people, even wrong roads can lead you to them."
Hyson laughed out loud and it took him a while to calm down, "Ellie, I have a question for you."
"What?"
"What do you call a snake that is 3.14m long?"
"I'm not answering that," replied Raelle.
"Why? You don't know the answer?" teased Hyson on purpose.
"A snake that is 3.14m long is called a python! Because 3.14 is the value of pi in calculus. I don't even know why I'm playing along with you."
"Because you always do," he told her with a grin on his face. "I can doubt anything in life but I can never doubt the fact that you won't give an answer. You're my soulmate friend, you not only have answers for , you never shy away from answering ."
Hyson heard so shuffling from her side before he heard her voice, "Hyson, what's going on? There is no way you called to play a childish ga with ."
"And if I did call just for that purpose, what can you do to ?"
"There is so much I can do but..."
"You don't want to," interrupted Hyson. "I'm the only one in your life who can get away with anything."
"Feeling proud?"
"Very!" replied Hyson cheekily.
"If you're done talking nonsense, co back to the main topic."
"I passed the audition."
"Congratulations!" said Raelle. "However, why does it seem like sothing is bothering you?"
"I t the screenwriter earlier and she said sothing that I can't seem to forget."
"What did she say?"
"She said she believes in ," answered Hyson. "Isn't it weird?"
"How is it weird? Didn't I tell you that I believe in you?"
"You're different," stressed Hyson. "You're my friend. Why you believe in , I can sowhat understand. But I can't understand her. This was the second ti we t and yet, she said she believes in . And she even put her own reputation on the line just to give this role. I'm not able to understand it."
"Aren't you quite knowledgeable about human emotions?"
Hyson scoffed, "You and I both know that just because I can feel emotions, I might not be able to understand people like you do. You've studied human behavior for so long. In the end, I might be more willing to believe in your analysis than what I'm feeling."
"I told you before that you should stop assuming that you're not deserving of sothing. You're a lot more talented than you give yourself credit for. You have a confident best friend, why are you so unconfident?" Raelle took a pause and went on, "I don't know that screenwriter but I can tell you why she believes in you. She can see the real you. If anything, I'd say she has a good vision. She has the eye to appreciate my treasured best friend."
Hyson's face stiffened before he whispered, "I might be the treasure but you're the precious one between us. Thank you for keeping up with my mood swings!"
"How troubleso!" said Raelle before hanging up the call making Hyson laugh out at her reaction.
