Small World

I was at the restroom of the commercial building just outside campus, minding my own business at the urinal. Halfway into it, a guy took the urinal beside mine. I didn’t pay attention to him at first, but then he started making strange noises. I soon realized that he was moaning. I looked at him and found him staring at me while stroking his thing, using his knapsack to somehow hide what he was doing. I panicked. I hurriedly went out of the restroom. When I looked back, I saw that Pervy guy was following me. I almost ran out of the building.

I later told this story to one of my friends. He quickly said that he had been victimized by Pervy guy as well. I thought this was unlikely, and that it was probably a different perv. He kept insisting that it was the same guy, but I was convinced that it wasn’t. Then he asked me if Pervy guy had knapsack.

Shawn and I were sitting on our school grounds with our orgmates. We were members of a student organization for nerds. It was February, and we were waiting for our president, Randy, to come so we can start setting up our booth for the fair. While waiting, I asked him how he and his boyfriend were. He said that things were not going well, and that the reason he’s been active in our org lately was because his boyfriend was asking for space.

Randy finally came after half an hour. He apologized for taking so long, explaining that he saw a cute guy in the jeepney and that he just had to get the guy’s number. He succeeded, and he spent the whole afternoon bragging that he already had a date for Valentine’s.

A few weeks later, Shawn came to my apartment. He was crying as he told me that his boyfriend broke up with him a few days before. He said that it was the first time he cried over the breakup. When I asked why they broke up, he said that it was because of a guy. I asked who the guy was. It was Randy’s jeepney guy.

A couple of days into our trial week, I mentioned to Dainn that I was a member of the Nerd Org. He said that he knew someone from our org. When I asked who, he said it was Shawn. He said that they were housemates.

I started to suspect. I didn’t want to think about it at first, but the urge to know was just too strong. I had to be sure. I texted Shawn. I got my confirmation with his reply.

His ex’s name is Dainn.

Dainn explained to me that he did not leave Shawn for Randy’s jeepney guy. He just got attracted to him. But the fact that he was already getting attracted to others guys made him realize that he no longer loved Shawn. That was why he decided to break up with him.

I finally got to see who jeepney guy was one day. Dainn and I were at school, waiting for his next class when he pointed at a guy. I was shocked for a moment. Then I couldn’t help laughing.

It was Pervy guy.
