    Bryan was a regular guy, just another face in the crowd of the bustling college campus. He was quiet, observant, and thoughtful, always lost in his own thoughts.

    Alex, Bryan's college classmate and friend, was the exact opposite. He was lively, energetic, and always the life of the party. Their friendship was an unlikely one, but it worked.

    Their friendship deepened as they spent more time together, often staying at each other's boarding houses, studying, and just enjoying each other's company.

    But things changed when Bryan started developing feelings for Alex. It was more than just friendship, and it scared him.

    One evening, Bryan gathered his courage and confessed his feelings to Alex. The room was filled with tension and uncertainty as he awaited Alex's response.

    Alex didn't know how to respond. He cared for Bryan but never considered him more than a friend. The confession put a strain on their friendship.

    For a while, things were awkward between Bryan and Alex. They didn't hang out as much, and their conversations were filled with uncomfortable silences.

    Bryan was distraught. He missed his friend but didn't know how to fix things. All he could do was hope that things would eventually get better.

    One day, Alex invited Bryan over to his place. He wanted to clear the air and salvage their friendship.

    Alex admitted that he was taken aback by Bryan's confession, but he valued their friendship more than anything. He proposed that they stay friends, and Bryan agreed.

    Bryan was relieved. He was ready to put his feelings aside to keep his friendship with Alex. They promised to always be honest with each other.
