He is a quite special guy born and raised in the land of Nam Dinh. His personality is completely different from other boys his age.

In the eyes of his friends, Cuong is an enthusiastic, kind, approachable guy with a talent for speaking. Therefore, everyone can improvise funny sentences at any time and of course, the ability to make jokes is very rare.

However, when meeting strangers, especially girls, Cuong’s personality changes. He turned into a completely opposite person. For those who first communicate with Cuong, they may think that he is a shy, reserved man. Sometimes Cuong is misunderstood because he is a difficult person who cannot get along with people around him.

But after a while of getting close to him, when they got to know him, they understood his true personality. In fact, what is exposed to others is just a cover to hide what is inside Cuong’s heart. A secret that he wants to bury carefully and doesn’t want anyone to know.

That secret is his gender.

In his mind, Cuong was a bit confused about his sexuality, he didn’t know if he was gay or not.

What he felt was that he really liked the feeling of touching people of the same sex, that feeling was like a warm water drenching his soul. Cuong’s eyes went wild as he looked at the bare backs of the boys next to him, or rather, blankly.

In contrast to feeling comfortable when being with people of the same sex, Cuong feels afraid when interacting with girls. At some point, he himself also began to doubt his gender because of the psychological manifestations of anti-feminism.

Whenever he encounters women, he always keeps a certain distance. If not, stay away, or find a way to hide. Because he was afraid of the creepy feeling when he was near them. It was as if there was something invisible that made his skin crawl.

You have to interact with Cuong for a very long time to understand his true personality. For that reason, new acquaintances will think that Cuong is a genuine homosexual.

There was no shortage of words around him about Cuong’s strange actions, one rumor, ten thousand words, and from then on, he got the name “Cuong Gay”.

I don’t know when that nickname became a catchphrase every time I called him. At first he was a little uncomfortable, but gradually he got used to hearing it so much that he didn’t care anymore and let people call him whatever they wanted.

Because he’s afraid of interacting with women, at 30 years old, he still hasn’t had a lover. The girls who have met him do not like his somewhat effeminate personality. Indeed, Cuong’s interactions were a bit gentle, because in his heart he had begun to think that he was a girl. What can be felt is the security and desire to be with people of the same sex.

Fate is ironic, when Cuong thought he was gay, God once again teased him. Bringing a girl to make his heart skip a beat for the first time.

It was a sunny day,

After many years of hardship in foreign lands, Cuong decided to return to his hometown to start a career. Stepping off the plane, he glanced at the surroundings. After so many years apart, this place has changed so much. He no longer recognized anything familiar.

Therefore, in Cuong’s heart, the desire to see the changes here arose, so he decided to walk and wander around Hanoi. In the midst of the blazing summer sun, along with the rising heat of the road surface, people feel stuffy and uncomfortable.

The sun had reached its peak, the sunlight had become more intense, his stomach began to make a gurgling sound. At this moment he felt hungry, looked up at the sky, he estimated that it was almost noon, it was time to have lunch. Look for a restaurant. Only then did he discover that there was not a single restaurant here.

Cuong frowned slightly, it seemed he had to walk far to find a restaurant. There was no longer a single person on the street. There are no motorbike taxis, and the phone doesn’t have a SIM card, so how can you call a taxi now? Taking a deep breath, he lamented:

– Well, let’s walk.

After walking for a long time, he saw a few restaurants and was already hungry, so he walked into a roadside restaurant, sat down on a chair, took out a handkerchief to wipe his face, and suddenly a sweet voice rang out:

– What do you want to use?

Raising his head, Cuong’s eyes met a smile, a smile that made his heart flutter. He fell in love, loved at first sight, his heart skipped a beat because of the girl in front of him. Cuong’s face turned slightly pink, like a shy little girl bowing her head and mumbling:

– Give me anything.

The girl smiled softly and said:

– You’re not afraid that I’ll order expensive dishes?

Cuong blushed even more when teased. The voice gets quieter:

– It’s okay, you can eat whatever you give me.

Seeing him blush, she smiled teasingly:

– Could it be that if I feed you poison, you will also eat it?

Seeing that she was also funny, Cuong smiled and teased her:

– Because of you, even if you were poisoned, I would still eat it.

Still smiling on her lips, she told him:

– Just kidding. Well, let me take the shop’s side dish so you can try it. If you find it delicious, please come and support the shop often.

As if the way had been opened, Cuong quickly said:

– Definitely.

When she was gone, he blamed himself for being stupid and saying all the things that made her laugh.

After bringing him food, she asked Cuong:

– Do you want something to drink?

– Whatever.

– So can I get you some coke?

– Okay, please help me get it.

She nodded and answered him.

– Yes, please wait a moment.

Cuong sat down to eat, but his eyes still followed the girl’s figure. Every gesture, even the smallest of her actions, he kept in his eyes. For the first time in his life, he felt uncomfortable and jealous of others, when they were talked to by a girl, even if it was just asking them what to order. For the first time, he secretly wished her smile was only for him.
