Yan Mor Tee has decided.
He will not pursue Song Dei Si this time. He heeded the advise of her father and his grandfather to stay away from her so she could focus on her studies first. He will just care for her silently and from a distance.
Thou he did not court her when they were in Grade 10, he made sure that none of the guys in Yan High School could have their chances on her. He guarded her to the point that before they can have their first move he had shooed them away.
The news about them being a couple has also died down at the end of the school year. If you will look at them, you can just say that they were merely classmate.
Classmate without talking to each other.
....
Two years has passed.
Yan Mor Tee and Song Dei Si remained classmate until the last year of their Senior High.
