As a habit of them, both of their eyes started checking every corner of the hall.. and Tul's eye eventually landed on a five foot short boy who is standing in a corner with a black uniform which was very familiar to his eyes.. The boy was already looking at them and then he bowed his head to which Tul turned his head to look at Max who was nodding to the boy. When he looked back to the boy, the boy is now looking forwards to someone and following the boy's grace Tul saw another person who was six feet tall and much more muscular then the other one.. that person also bowed to Max to which the right hand gave another nod..

"Don't worry, they are one of us.." Max whispered in his ear..

"Did you just made them to follow you to this stupid party? So that you can enjoy and these two could watch over you?" Tul hissed back to which Max just rolled his eyes and fished his phone from his pocket..

"For the brain of yours, you think way too much!!" Max said as he started texting someone..

"Then why the hell are we here?"

Keeping his phone back to his pocket, Max looked at Tul "We are here to attend this award function on behalf of our boss!!"

"Tsk. Did you received the orders?" Of course Tul don't believe this right hand who is also a mess in his eyes..

Sighing, Max replied "No! But some times you have to do some things without getting the orders" With that Max raised his hand to wave to a person who came forward to receive them.. And Tul do recognised this person very well.

"Max!! Man you are late!!!"

"Sorry, Sir Tong.. you know our duties.." Max made a excuse as they started following Tong towards one of the round table..

"Yeah yeah whatever.. it's his big day and your excuse was very lame!!" They three settled around the table..

"I would sincerely apologise for being late, Sir."

"Do that to the one you came for! And you did brought a friend as you said.." Tong said as he shifted his grace from Max to Tul. "Tul, we met again.. Hi.." Even though Tong was smiling formally Tul could not help but to glare at Max.. Tsk! Friend? We would never be!!

"Hi, Sir Tong." Tul replied with a smile..

"Oh, you can cut the sir thing! It's Max way to annoy me taking all in formal but you can just call me Tong" This statement made Tul look at Max to ask if it was okay.. to which Max just glanced at him and returned to look at the stage..

With that Tul smiled and nodded "Okay.. Tong."

Giving a big smile to Tul, Tong looked towards the stage "Hey its starting!! Max you are lucky that you are on time!"

All three looked at the stage were the real occasion started..

"Well well well.. that was the wonderful performance by the most skilled people.. But now its' time to begin the award ceremony.. and I would like to invite of chief guest on the stage and say few words.." A lady was blabbering nonstop which Tul didn't understood any of it..

"What kind of award function is this?" Tul whispered leaning closer to Max.

"Business man of the year"

"And who is that?" Tul whispered again.

A small smirk formed on Max lips as he whispered back "You will see.."

Grinding his jaw, Tul looked forward.. And unknown to them Tong was imagining things between the both high standard bodyguards who were whispered like lovers..

(That's how it looked for Tong. LOL)

"...the business man of the year is not just an award but a success to the life. It gives you strength to work and it also encourages to work more, so that's how this person has reached to the stage for the second time to receive this award.. and it's non other than.. The first ranker in his bachelor degrees..."
