Cute, Lovable and engrossing BL~ Find it on YouTube ❣️

Let's talk about Ben first Coz he really kept me glued on to this!
His eyes, his face, his hair everything is just an eye candy to begin with.
Great acting skills paired with lovely expressive eyes is all what one can praise in him other than his cute looks.

Jim on other hand is just ok for me look-wise coz there's a lot of hype created over his looks in the series which I don't get.. like why 🤷🏻‍♀️ coz the other supporting actors Olan and Leo are more handsome.
Anyway.. acting wise he's good so no complaints.


Plot is really good.
An open gay- Ben- Just gotten out of an abusive relationship with Leo, meets his longtime best friend and first love who is also his neighbour - Jim - who's straight (until he meets Ben of course!)

There's also a delivery guy Olan (who's really cute) who becomes a jealousy factor between these two friends and renders Jim to question his sexuality when he finds him getting uncomfortable with olan and Ben's closeness.

Then there is our besh - Flo- who's very lovable character and also a Ben supporter/ guide.
Little things like transferring money instantly to Ben after seeing a bunch of his unpaid bills will really make you want such a caring friend for yourself too.

With limited characters and amid this quarantine, this series is a good one which will bring back the memories of your first love and the butterflies you had then in your stomach will start flying again.

Ben's cuteness/ shyness/ drooling over his friend -will keep the smile intact on your face❤️

Though I have few complaints with characterisation of both the leads like Ben is shown too nosy into the affairs of Jim giving the feels of a stalker living next door while Jim is that kind of straight friend who shows his homo side only to a gay friend thereby playing with his feelings.

Anyway, all in all- go for it on YouTube and enjoy this BL coz its worth your time.
