Wai Kit is 23, strikingly good-looking and a student in a local university. He has been aware of his sexuality ever since he was in Junior College, and has been 'in and out of relationships'. His first love was a Junior College schoolmate, who eventually 'turned straight'. Although the relationship only lasted half a year, it has left a deep mark on him, and his memories of it are filled with struggling against the distraction of heartbreak while studying for his exams, and contrasting himself with debased self-loathing against the girl his ex-boyfriend eventually chose as a partner.

Unlike Justin, Wai Kit has allowed this 'first love' to shape his attitude towards relationships in general. He sincerely believes, for example, that it has damaged him to some extent, and that his guarded approach to romance is thus justified. Consequently, Wai Kit invariably develops cold feet whenever any of his relationships reaches a six-month mark. He becomes seized with an irrational dread of abandonment and will initiate a breakup, even under the most promising of circumstances.

Wai Kit's relationship with Justin is thus an anomaly for him- at the six month mark, Justin had begged him to stay on. Sometimes Wai Kit feels himself unworthy, he feels the incongruity between their divergent experiences when it comes to love.

A few months before meeting Justin, Wai Kit had stumbled into a group that held regular 'party-and-play' sessions, a term used for sex parties which are fueled by drugs and chemicals. Wai Kit had met the group where he engages in risky sex, in nihilistic pursuit of an elusive pleasure which is in fact the ultimate numbness.
