Haohao puts on a mask and sits inside the subway car, feeling the rhythmic swaying of the car body and the continuous sound coming from the tracks. In Taipei at 10 o'clock at night, the subway car is filled with various smells, from students just out of school, to office workers finishing overtime, and other people bustling about in urban life. Their faces are filled with the fatigue and relaxation of the day, but Haohao's heart is wandering in another world.
Sitting alone in a seat by the side, Haohao holds a book, but his eyes are not focused on reading. From time to time, his gaze wanders aimlessly inside the car, capturing every passing person. The light inside the car casts a faint glow on his glasses, reflecting the scene inside the car.
Haohao's thoughts were completely immersed in the conversation he had just had with Anthon in the taxi. He recalled Anthon's final roar, the emotional voice piercing his heart like a blade, making it difficult for him to calm down. A sense of powerlessness, worry, and sadness intertwined like a storm raging in his heart. He deeply understood how painful and chaotic Anthon was in that moment, yet he couldn't immediately alleviate his pain.
The sound of the subway's movement seemed like background music, and as the carriages moved forward, Haohao's mind continued to ponder how to help Anthon, how to restore the harmony and balance between them. He knew it would take time, perhaps even more patience and understanding, but he was willing to try. After all, he cherished the friendship with Anthon and was willing to make an effort to maintain it.
In the subway car, Haohao felt a kind of inner loneliness and helplessness, but at the same time, a firm determination surged within him. He knew that no matter what difficulties he faced, as long as he held sincerity and goodwill in his heart, their friendship could overcome everything.
As the subway car gradually quieted down, Haohao's thoughts became clearer. He began to realize that the problem between them was not just a simple matter of friendship. The relationship between him and Anthon seemed to have become more ambiguous and subtle unconsciously. This change left Haohao feeling confused because he had never entertained thoughts about Anthon beyond the scope of friendship.
Haohao tried to recall when exactly did Anthon start to have some... inappropriate thoughts in his attitude towards him? He asked himself, feeling a surge of complex emotions. On one hand, he felt repulsed by this unknown and sudden change, as it exceeded his consistent understanding of their relationship. On the other hand, he found that he was not completely unable to accept this possibility, which made him feel inexplicably strange.
Haohao sat there, his eyes becoming deep. He began to contemplate what his true feelings for Anthon were. Was it purely friendship? Or had they unintentionally planted other emotions between them? This contemplation made Haohao feel uneasy and made him realize that he needed a deeper understanding and awareness of his own feelings.
The sound of the subway wheels accompanies the silence of the night, and Haohao feels a sense of loneliness creeping in. He knows that what he needs to do next is to sit down with Anthon and have an open and honest discussion about everything. Regardless of the outcome, they need to clarify their feelings for each other and ensure that this subtle change does not affect their precious friendship. It is a courageous exploration that Haohao is ready to face.
Haohao sits in the subway car, having already made up his mind. He knows that, in any case, he does not want to lose a good friend like Anthon. Regarding the gradually blurred emotional boundaries between them, Haohao believes that they need to sit down and have an open and honest conversation. Even if the ultimate conclusion is to return to friendship, they should at least part on good terms, without regrets.
Just as Haohao was determined to take action, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. He snapped back to reality and pulled out the device. A notification popped up on the screen—an email from Da Shewan. This enigmatic figure always seemed to appear at the most unexpected moments, as if he could sense when Haohao was distracted.
Haohao lightly tapped to open the email, curious about what Da Shewan had to say this time. The content could be about a new video collaboration or perhaps some latest developments in the industry. However, no matter what the message contained, Haohao knew he needed to first address the issues with Anthon, ensuring they could face each other honestly before considering anything else.
As Haohao was lost in thought about his future conversations with Anthon, his phone vibrated again, interrupting his train of thought. This time, the caller ID showed that it was Da Shewan calling. Surprised, Haohao answered the phone, and Da Shewan's vibrant and enthusiastic voice filled the air, injecting a bit of energy into the calm subway car.
"Brother Hao! How have you been lately?" Da Shewan's voice always had a way of uplifting people, carrying a light and cheerful tone.
Haohao smiled lightly, though there were still some complex emotions lingering in his heart. He replied, "I'm doing fine, Da Shewan. What's up? Why the sudden call? Are you coming to Taipei?"
On the other end of the line, Da Shewan chuckled. He always had a way of bringing good cheer without even trying. "Haha, no, I'm not coming to Taipei this time. I just suddenly remembered that there's something I wanted to talk to you about, and I wanted to check in on how you've been lately."
Listening to Da Shewan's humorous words, Haohao gradually felt more relaxed. Although he knew that the issues with Anthon still needed to be faced and resolved, the phone call at that moment provided him with a sense of temporary relief, allowing him to step away from his heavy thoughts. At least during this brief conversation, he could feel the warmth and concern from an old friend.
