Mil and Bright got along very well. Mil guided Bright step by step into the process of how to handle and deal with the job requirements. Mil helped Bright with finishing the paperwork and rectifying the proposal before sending to Mr.Win for the final approvals.

Bright was more than thankful and looked up to Mil as an elder brother.

Midday Mil invited Bright to have lunch with the team and the team was super friendly with Bright, but Bright was not happy to be on this table?

Why, you ask ? Because at the head of the table sat none other than the person he hated, Win Metawin and Bright was sitting on his right.

Bright chatted with everyone on the table except Win, earning a hand on his thigh from Win underneath the table.

Brights' face jerked from his senior straight towards Win. Underneath the table Bright lifted Win's hand and shoved it away from his leg hitting Wins hand on the armrest of the chair

"ouch" Win cried

"Are you alright!" Phukong, a senior chief of Win's team asked

"I am alright, don't worry, cat bite" he said smirking

Little did they know that Mil had observed this interaction.

In the evening Bright met Gulf and exchanged some insights. The grabbed coffee together and then headed home.

"Bro, how was work" Liz, Brights' sister asked

"The same as usual, how was your studies?, need help" Bright asked

"No, I'll do it myself" she said "Let go say hi to big bro" dragging Bright to the other room where his brother's memorabilia were kept.

The framed photo of Seo brought nothing but tears in both Bright and Liz's eyes. Their favorite elder brother was no longer with them. It was routine for Bright and Liz to say Hi to their brother everyday. They didn't want to forget him, even if he was not physically there for them.

Few minutes later Liz went to the kitchen leaving Bright alone in the room

Bright sat next to the picture and put his head in his hands.

"Why him, Bro, it could have been anyone else, I can't seem to forgive him no matter what...... why couldn't you hate him after all he did to you. It was his fault, bro, why?" Bright sobbed

"Seo, can you guess, who is my superior, its him, as much as I want to excel at work, his presence always holds me back, I can't do this but I don't have any other choice... bro what can I do"

After releasing his frustration out, he tapped his eyes dry and walked out of the room as he didn't want to worry his mother.

But mothers are mothers, they know everything

"Is my big baby alright?" Bright's mom asked

"Moooooooom" Bright put his head on her shoulder and hugged her for a solid 10 minutes

"Mom, is always going to be here for her babies, don't worry " she continued

Bright just nodded staying nothing

"Who wants to eat chocolate cookies?" Mom said making the atmosphere lighter

"Me" chimed both Liz and Bright and they dashed to the cooling rack to grab the cookies, later in the evening, she also sent some over to Gulf's house.

The next few days at work, everything went well until this happened.....

"Bright for the upcoming contract with the Babii corporation, Mr. Win has delegated you to handle the case" Mil announced at the morning meeting which consisted of only himself and Bright

Finally Bright would get to handle a big contract. Now he can show his talents off.

Days went by preparing the proposal, Mil kept on sending it back to Bright to correct the errors that he felt needing adjusting. Bright worked effortlessly to accommodate his work.

After Bright had finished the proposal he send it to Mil for a final check as a hardcopy. Mil had initially told Bright not to send the proposal over email as Mil might sometimes miss it. So Bright printed the papers and set the file on top of Mils' desk after texting Mil that he had done so and went home

The day came finally for the proposal presentation. Bright was so excited that he almost couldn't sleep the previous night.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the proposal presentation for the Babii corporation. As you all know the Mil has explained to you, that the committee will decide the best proposal and delegate that person to be in charge of the collaboration" As Win was saying the words made no sense to Bright...Mil told him he was already delegated.....what the hell was going on

"I am expecting a lot from the newbies" Win finished his sentence, whilst eyeing Bright

Resining to this fate Bright looked around to find Mil, but Mil was not even looking at his face. Bright was the fourth presenter, as his name was called up and handed out his proposal.

The room went dark and Bright turned towards the audience, midway his presentation, an executive lifted his hand and stopped him.

He motioned the lights to be switched on and looked straight into Brights eyes

"You disappoint me, young lad" His glared at Bright

"Excuse me!" Bright was unable to comprehend what just happened

"If you want to copy someones proposal atleast change the numbers and not only the name on the front page" he continued

"But Sir, this is the proposal I wrote" Bright reasoned

The executive took a file and hurled it towards Bright "you have the nerve to copy your seniors work"

Bright looked down to see a blue file with his project title but the presenters work was not Bright Vachiravit rather Mil..........................

This was not happening, who would ever play such a serious joke.
