No Strings Attached

Chapter 10

"With your other friend, Nat?"

Despite everything, he can't help but smile. Zee haven't met his two closest friends in person but he already remember their names. It meant nothing, but it still made him feel warm inside.

"No. Just me and James. He just came from a vacation and I wanted to see him ASAP!"

"Okay. See you later, Nhu."

"See you later."

He ended the call and he sigh deeply.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

James haven't arrive yet. The server walk towards him with the menu but he said he was still waiting for someone. The server nods and leave.

While waiting for his friend, he checked his phone to see if James send a text message but he didn't see any.

"Nunew Chawarin?"

He look up and he saw a beautiful woman. The woman had long, black, straight hair and soft pale skin. She looked like a porcelain doll. She wore a lacy pink dress which makes her even more radiant.

He didn't recognize her immediately. She was more glowing in person than the standee in the supermarket.

"I'm Kimmy Walt, one of Zee Pruk's former fuck buddies." The woman sat opposite him before he could even start to talk. "Sorry for the blunt introduction, you're probably busy and I don't want to waste your time with meaningless chatter."

He knows he needs his sharp tongue to make her disappear... that is if he could remember how to speak.

"Just hear me out, Khun Nunew. I just want to warn you. Believe me, I don't have any bad intention in approaching you. I just want to warn you about Zee. I've seen your pictures on Twitter posts and it seems like you're his new toy~~"

"Stop!" He was surprise that his brain cells function again and he unleash the diva Nhu that he is. "I want to say it's a pleasure to meet you, Khun Kim, but I don't want to fake. I don't know why you approached me, and I don't care. I'm waiting for someone and I don't have time for you. So if you don't mind?"

"I know, Khun Nunew. I know."

Her eyes full of sympathy and he felt like there's a poison flowing on his stomach. It was killing all the good feelings he felt inside of him, leaving him with nothing but emptiness.

"I know I might look like some bitter ex-fling but that's not why I'm here. I just want to tell you to be careful with Zee. I know he seems wonderful and perfect; and in many ways, he is. He makes you feel special and loved. He already told you from the start that he was just after sex right? But he was not acting like one, am I right?"

Nunew was speechless. Cat got his tongue.

"He's attentive and almost sweet and it's impossible not to feel that maybe, just maybe, you could be more to him than his latest fuck buddy. But it won't happen, Khun Nunew." Her eyes becomes teary but it never make her less beautiful. Kimmy looks even more pretty when she's sad or crying. "He's selfish, manipulative bastard. He loves to play with feelings. He wants you to be in love with him. He likes the challenge. Then, when he could see that you couldn't live without him, he would cut you in half and leave you bleeding. And then, he'll blame it on you. He'll remind you that he said from the start that he didn't want anything more than sex. That it's your fault for~~~"

"Leave!" His voice wasn't as stable and as loud as he wanted to but it was enough. It was enough to keep himself from falling apart. "My relationship with Zee Pruk is none of your concern, Khun Kimmy. I don't know you and you certainly don't know me. I do not appreciate your condescending and unsolicited advice. Don't speak to me about this again. Better yet, don't speak to me ever again."
