"Teddy, please. For the thirteenth time today, stop bothering me. I am busy with my job hunting." pleaded by Mari with his pissed off face facing Teddy, his suitor. No, his annoyer.

Back to their high school days to their college days, Teddy Sangat, a Thai\-American ex friend of his would always be there to bother him, wherever it is, whenever it is. Not that he cared but soon as these lines: "Let's date please." "I've known you since forever, give me a chance." "I would never hurt you. Please let me date you." " Mari, wouldn't you want to be mine?" spatted out of Teddy's mouth, his ears would produce a ringing sound that in his own judgement, an alarm. An alarm for him to stay away from this man. He's not ugly, no, not too handsome too. An average face that would go to an 'okay' ideal of a female's criteria of choosing a boyfriend but in his life, lovel life and relationships are nothing but a bother. Listed to the last of his priority.

He needs money, an official work or a proper job, he studied hard to land in a good job that would fit into his college degree. Because if it doesn't fit, then why would the he studied that freaking course. He had given his best in school, so he believed that work will come to him. Sad part was, he had to hunt it.

The girls in his generation to generation was described as "sexily beautiful". And not to deny, even though heis a boy, Marion LaBeouf standing in height of five feet three inches, as an omega, it is pretty tall, in his opinion. He weighs around fifty two to fifty three pound.

His father used to say that his face was like his mother, Elizabeth. Round small face, hazel to brown eyes, button nose, pouty cherry plum lips. Almost a living little doll.

Having 3 siblings, two brothers, a twins, born after him, who study in their respective grade in high school. And a grade schooler little girl. His father was divorced to their adulterer mother. Taken care of them, never complaining, loves them endlessly. Works as a mechanic in a auto parts shop.

Some time around his age of sixteen or seventeen, he listens to his dad from outside his room where he and his mother, Elizabeth, would reside at night. Asking questions of whys and hows. It was painful to watch and listen. As a child, that moment all he wanted to do was yo comfort his crying daddy. But as it passes by the ray of sun, his daddy's pain settle like how sun settle to the west. They settled.

"Mari, just date me. I know you also like me. I can see you are into me too." Teddy arrogantly claimed. See? Some of the few reasons why he cannot and he can't, all of the negative of possible were about to be used but no.

"Such an arrogant \*\*\*\*." he murmurs. He continue walking fast to reach the Central Department Store, where his best friend works. He would try his luck there.

"Mari, you know my number. I can give you work if you wanted to. Or better yet, just marry me then you can settle to my house, bear my babies and wait for me to come home to, you know, take care of me." he said as he smirk, knowing what kind of 'take care of me'. He finally face him.

"You know. I didn't know you were idiot. So low to the level of low. When would stop saying those things to me? We used to be friends. We used to be. But knowing that you don't respect me anymore, it puzzles me if you are really like this from the beginning or what. Stop bothering me. There are many fishes out there, try your luck somewhere." he spat with a pure anger in his voice, he continues to walk away.

"You know it's because I like you. I'll pick you up!" Teddy shouted.

How many no's has he given and spitted to that guy? He couldn't count anymore. They were in good terms before. If Teddy didn't turn out the way he is now. He would have dated him.

Teddy was a good friend. Good times had also shared between them. All those times he wasn't into falling in love and being in a relationship, he's focused on how he could help his daddy. He learned that Teddy sells drugs in their high school, having a father who supplies Teddy with the parcels, he became a user with a terrible friends. He saw how he became a bully. Then, his and Will, his gay friend, another omega, started to drift away. They were best friends, an inseparable kids from their beginning of life.

There was one time when his brother, Marlone, told him how that guy,Teddy, fucked some girl in an alley, looking drugged with red eyes. His brother was scared for him and asked him to stay away from that idiot, Teddy.

One more thing was, Teddy lifted his arm to slap Will. One thing that he and Will can never forget. As he reminiscence about it, he reached his destination.

"Hello, sweetcheek. I see you still haven't landed a job." Will started as he assembles the newly stocked clothes.

" Nothing Will. Why? The jobs were too easy for me and why can't they give it to me. Saying that my grades are high but inexperienced. I am a fresh graduate of course, I have no experience. I am a \*\*\*\*\*\*!" he complained to Will with a twisted lips and deep frown.

Will laughs at his complain and declaration.

" Should they know that you are a \*\*\*\*\*\*?" he asked with a smirked.

" ok. Maybe not. But I am a very fresh graduate! Of course, I have no experience. The only job experience I have was. When I babysitted Nari. You know, our neighbor's little kid? What do they expect from me? " he pouted, still complaining. He can hear Will's chuckles.

" Besides that dear. Do you remember that it is my birthday today, do you not?" he asked while raising his brows to him.

" Oh, of course I do remember. Your gift, its in my room. Whar time is you out? Let's eat out." he said.

" Aha. My sweetcheek is going to take me out? I'm not sure let me think. Hmmm." he teased while assemblying the clothes on it's racks.

"Then, it's settled. I'll wait for you downstairs at food court." he declared as he walks away.

" But I haven't said yes yet, sweetcheek." he replied as he watch him walked away.

Mari turn around with an open mouth signing "Whatever" then continue to walk away.

Leaving his best friend to chuckle. Will had no other option but to comply. He was defeated by his cute friend again.
