Can I sit here?

What do you need?

Nothing, bro.

You seem to avoid me and Thien these days

so I come here to ask whether you're still mad at him.

I’m not mad at him.

He’s always right.

That sounds contrary to what you just said.

They're all detective fiction.

Are you planning to be an author of detective fiction?

No, just planning to be an investigative reporter.

If there is documentary, I want to do it.

You’re also good at Literature.

So Thien wasn't wrong.

But I don’t want to tranfer to Group D.

Thien looked down on me when he was saying that.

You are looking down on yourself, and Group D as well!

Thien just wants you to be better off.

You don’t have to explain.

Thien doesn’t have those kinds of deep thoughts.

He doesn’t have deep thoughts,

but he also doesn’t mean to look down on you.

You’re doing that to yourself.

I'm bad at communicating with strangers,

always bury my nose in books.

Thien is the one who doesn’t worry much.

And you’re always busy helping your mom and taking care of your grandma,

But your studying is very good.

Phuong, our monitor was crying angrily when her Literature grade's lower than yours.

You really don't look down on me, do you?

Are you crazy? Of course not!

My mom wishes I can be a part like you, she would be less worried.

Okay then, don’t avoid us anymore.

These days, you’re nowhere to be found,

Thien was very frustrated,

And I also felt quite empty...

Alright, I won’t do that anymore.

Were you thinking about that day?

Yes, but now I think of it, I should have confessed my feelings.

After summer break, Thuy got himself a girlfriend already.

If it were you, would you feel regret?

Yes, I do...

Anyway, I wanted to ask you in the morning

about your hair, those tattoos, earings, and your mom.

Why're you asking when you already know the answer?

I just wanted to piss her off.

We had a fight last night about my study abroad.

She always thinks for herself.

Like I have zero credit for my scholarship,

and I was just a time waster.

Fighting with your mom isn't an unusual thing,

normally, you don't get angry at her, why now?

Because of the fight last night,

now I know she wants to get rid of me as soon as possible.

So I can't see the one I love anymore.

The one you love?

The one I love,

is not in love with me.

That doesn't make sense to me.

Why is your mom afraid of someone who doesn't love you?

My mom doesn't know.

Because of my bad attitudes, she just want to get rid of me.

I'm familiar with this already.

But since she found out I'm in love with someone,

she thinks that person is the reason of my bad attitudes.

Because of them, I'm disobedient and spoiled.

How is the one you love?

Not bad at all.

Very nice, on the other hand.

But for my mom, that person is bad.

The reason of all my bad behaviors.

She wants to keep me away from that person.

She believes I will return to be a coward afterward.

Always obey to the parents.

I think your parents only want good things to you.

Sometimes, the method is not appropriate.

She doesn't want you to be a coward.

You are such a good child of all mothers,

so you only see the best things in people.

About my mom, I think she doesn't get me.

The love she gives me not as much as for her imaginary son.

You and your father are your mom's lifelong achievements.

Sometimes, she forgets you're a human,

not just an achievement.

Every wife wants her husband and her son to be the lifelong guide

she sacrifices everything for her husband and son.

I wonder if it was me,

would I be able to make those sacrifices?

Then I realize, I've never been forced like my mother.

You really are not bad at all,

very nice, on the other hand.

Very suitable with Social Studies, and being a reporter.

Today is the last day, let not waste any moment.

Let's play hard!

Hey, I took a photo on the way here,

let me show you.

Take a look.

Here.

Not anyone could capture that moment.

You're right, it's not easy to have such a beautiful moment like this.

Are you insane?

What the hell?

I wanted to make it up for you.

What the hell was that for?

I'm the one to blame.

Because you couldn't confess to Thuy last time.

What happened between me and Thuy has nothing to do with you!

Why it has nothing to do with me?

All of it was arranged by me.

What are you talking about?

I did something to stop you from confessing with Thuy.

At least I'm there for him.

You're saying like you like him.

I do like him.

I'm gonna wait for hime to come home and then confess.

Hopefully, Thuy wins the prize.

If he's sad, it will be difficult to confess.

When are you planning to tell hime?

Maybe next Monday.

I'm gonna skip classes that morning to come to his house.

TRIEU: Where are you now?

THUY: In the study room

Thuy, can you take a look, I think there's something in me eye.

Are you insane?

I just messed with you.

What the hell?

Trieu just texted me but where is he now?

Are you waiting for him?

I want to give him this thing, but...

But what? What makes you shy?

I'll tell you, but keep it as a secret.

Okay, tell me.

I prepared this gift for him.

It has my confession inside.

Confession? To Trieu?

I thought he's straight.

What? How can you tell?

He's hitting on a Grade 10 girl.

Come on, because of you...

I'm afraid your confession would make thing awkward between us.

Hey Trieu, suddenly I've known that Thuy is straight, and he seems to have a crush on a girl in our class. Don't be sad, if you want to confess, just say so bro.

If things went wrong, we might not see each others like months, it's not that long. But I don't think it could be that worse.

Yeah, I know... Thanks bro.

You're crazy Thien!

Are you crazy Thien? Do you know what you are talking about?

I love Thuy.

I know he liked you,

so I had to make my own chance.

You know I like him.

I think you know

if you guys had been a thing, it would have been offensive to my eyes.

So you knew exactly what Thuy would feel then.

Of course.

If I couldn't have Thuy, I won't let anyone have their happiness.

Punch me if you want,

so we can end this damage.

Why? Why did you do that Thien? WHY?
