After that, the two slipped down from the beds and crouched next to Freddy.

"Dude, what happened? Are you really not afraid to be trashed, saying all that cr*p to Bruno?"

"He would've kept all that to himself if he was. Didn't you see Bruno punching him? Does it hurt?"

With that, one of them poked the corner of Freddy's mouth, but he sat still, unresponsive.

"Freddy, bro?"

"Why isn't he responding? Had Bruno punched his brain out of him?"

The guys poked the corner of Freddy's mouth again, but eliciting no response, they continued to jab at him.

Freddy finally couldn't take it anymore; gritting his teeth, he cursed, "Have you guys had enough? You just have to go poking at my wound, do you? Although my heart hurts more now, I'm still made of flesh and blood. Can you two poke somewhere else?"

For some reason, although Freddy looked textbook woebegone at the moment, his two roommates could not help but guffaw when they heard his laments.

"Man, you sure are funny, Freddy. Shouldn't you be saying something like your heart is dead, apart from a bleeding heart, you don't feel any pain?"

"Yeah, so what are you doing, still saying your wound hurts?"

Freddy looked at his two roommates and snapped, "F*ck off!"

After he scolded, the pain at the corner of his mouth sent him groaning immediately, gasping ceaselessly.

Seeing that, the two roommates laughed even louder!

Incensed, Freddy gave each of them a kick.

"Whatever happened tonight stays here. I was drunk, and I was talking nonsense."

"Then why the stubborn act when you know what exactly you were doing? Bruno was so pissed he left because of you."

At that subject, Freddy became silent, his eyes dark and serious.

"I don't regret saying any of that."

Some cards had to be laid on the table, especially if it was love, never wise to be vague.

He could keep the topic away from Mashauva; all she needed to do was continue being her innocent self, but why couldn't he have resolved it with Bruno? Freddy was dead set on him clarifying things! Late at night.
