"Mae..." A smile appeared on the pink lips. "I checked your room this afternoon, but Mae wasn't there."

"I've just arrived."

"Oh? Are you working overtime today, Mae?"

"It seems like that. A big company from aboard booked many rooms today, it will be a busy night for night shift. Mae need to supervise it myself." Mae explained.

"Then, I will accompany you."

"You need to go home."

"But, Mae–"

"Mae don't need you here." Mother cut him off. It drew a sad face on Pete's face. "Don''t give Mae that face. Mae want Pete to take care of your house. You have to play the role as a husband, too."

After the long explanation, Pete blushed. "I will go home, then. But, Mae, it doesn't mean Pete don't wanna help Mae na..."

"Ja... Mae know..." Mother smiled. Pete still acted like a spoiled son she used to know everytime they met. "Now, please go home, Dear. Mae need to work, too."

"Okay khrab, Mae. Excuse Pete na~ see you tomorrow."

As Pete enter the elevator, Mother also walked to her office room.

6 PM

Pete sighed. He was bored, indeed. Comparing these two days without Ae was not working at all because the scene in Pete's head when they were together not only cooking, watching movies, and having dinner together, but also making out and making love. Recalling those times would make Pete going insane, so he better stopped.

"Watching movie... watching movie..." Pete convinced himself. He opened the large and big wood buffet contained all Ae and his movie DVD collection and picked one of them to accompany him tonight.

The sound of a motorcycle's horn honking...

Pete startled. Who? He asked himself. No one have ever come this house with motorcycle, except Ae's soccer club friends. Pete peeped from the window first before welcoming the guest. He found two familiar faces waffed at him.

Pete hurriedly opened the door for them. "P'No?! P'Type?!"

The two seniors from university came to visit Ae. At least, that's what Pete thought at the moment.

While Techno was parking his motorcycle, Type already stood in front of Pete, asking... "Where is Ai Ae?"

"He is on a business trip khrab."

"I see. What are you doing now?"

"I have a plan to watch movie tonight."

"Have you had dinner? We bought fried chickens." Type pointed at a big box inside white plastic bags in Techno's hand.

"Oh, I haven't eaten yet. But I have food, too. Maybe we can share it together." Pete remembered the food Par Jiew have given him yesterday.

"Great! We can come inside, right? I'm hungry." Techno excused himself and come in. "Wah, Ai Pete, what are you going to watch? This one?"

"Khrab."

"Alone, huh?" Type asked softly. Techno couldn't hear it because he kept babbling about the movie they were going to watch. "Feel lonely?"

Pete smiled hopelessly, "I thought I wouldn't."

"But you are."

"I am now, but please, P'Type... don't tell Ae about this." Pete begged.
