Then came a period of deep terror when Vos thought Luna actually had a boyfriend. During those dark days, he sank into a despair so profound it felt like drowning at the bottom of a vast, cold lake of sorrow. He lost the strength to surface, and no matter how many friends tried to reach him, he wanted only to drift away and let go of everything.

After a few excruciating days, Luna gently made him realize the entire thing was a misunderstanding. It was an enormous, life-giving relief, like breaking the surface and inhaling clean air again.

Despite the constant sting of jealousy, his time with her was also filled with dazzling, happy moments. He distinctly remembered buying her a simple keychain for Women's Day. It was a small act of recognition for his special one. Yet, the simple act of presenting the gift made him incredibly nervous. His heart hammered a desperate rhythm against his ribs, but the nervousness was instantly eclipsed by pure delight. He felt that joy because Luna's smile, wide and ear to ear, was reserved entirely for him in that moment.

For a long time, Vos was the only one enduring the jealous agony when she laughed with others. But then, one day, he saw a flicker of that pain reflected in her. It was small, a brief spark of annoyance, just enough to make him lightheaded with suspicion.

The incident began because Luna mistakenly believed he was interested in Beatrix, her best friend. For a short, confusing time, her tone changed, forcing Vos into a frantic, hurried explanation. There was nothing more chaotic than having the person you adored believe you were chasing someone else. It made his mind feel scrambled. However, seeing the immediate, happy warmth return to her smile after his explanation instantly made all the confusion worthwhile.

But the emotional mess was far from over. A new girl appeared, a satellite from a different orbit, who began openly flirting with both Vos and his friend. Luna saw this girl's actions as a calculated, double game. The girl was direct, messaging Vos to ask him to record a rap for her and commenting on his every social media status. She mirrored this behavior with his friend, but Vos quickly dismissed that side story; this narrative was only about him and Luna.

As soon as that new girl entered the picture, Luna's demeanor shifted. Vos was afraid of sounding foolish, but seeing Luna look half jealous and genuinely annoyed whenever he acknowledged the flirtatious girl filled him with an abrupt, undeniable surge of hope. This powerful, selfish feeling was the only proof he needed. Vos logically concluded that Luna must, without a doubt, like him back.
