-Conversation at Unknown Place-
"He is the current center of attention in the house, especially Khun Kinn," the voice said as he stared straight at the young man puffing a cigarette in his mouth.
"He is daring and has high self-confidence, how could he not be interested?" Chestnut- shaped lips emitted white smoke, spreading all around the room.
"That's right..." The other side clenched his mouth tightly, keeping his gaze.
"He must taste good....what do you think?" In a hoarse voice, he anxiously asked the man in a black suit infront of him.
"Well, just like how you want it..a real man." said the voice before silently staring at his handsome face. This man has a character that was hard to decipher because he could act courteous on the outside, but cold and dangerous on the inside.
"I usually do before this kind of thing, but this is very annoying." The cigarette ash was thrown over a small clear glass. He knows exactly who Kinn has arranged for the night and knows very well what taste he does like. He always arranges those matches beforehand so he could act before Kinn. He wants the other surprised.
He's addicted to the feeling of satisfaction he had by doing something secretly behind his back. If he had known that Kinn would want the same thing that he does, he would have died.
Not to mention Kinn's people who they spend their money for battling with unknown enemy is ready to surrender their own lives for the first family.
"What will you do next?"
"He wants him, doesn't he?" He asked, a thrill in his voice.
"As far as I can see, he probably does." His brows are furrowed before speaking his mind.
"If not, I will be attracted to him. You know what I like," said the dark voice with a grin playing at the corners of his lips.
He still couldn't let go of the topic of their conversation. A man who catches attention at first sight, who looks strong and arrogant on the outside. The guy who has masculine tastes and of course, always offensive. After all, he didn't like someone with a cute and slender figure, He prefers the pleasant manly smell.
"Tell me whatever you want me to do." The man wearing all black was irritated to hear that. He sighed, and then looked back at his face.
"Follow him everywhere, watch whatever he does, then look at Kinn's attitude towards him. The more Kinn likes him, the more I want him for myself."
Annakin's interest in that person has doubled his enthusiasm. He will do whatever it takes to win against Kinn to give him the most painful agony.
"Yes, I will," The man sighed exhaustedly, as he thought of the image of how attractive that person was. But that is fine too, at least use the person in front of you to separate the master from that bastard. He was annoyed and hated it.
"Let us talk more about the business regarding the sending of new drugs. I have reached out for your directions and if you are ready, let me know."
"Umm ... let us look at two more routes. I thought I would bring more. The police are being lazy these days."
The two of them talked about their private business for a bit before splitting back to do their own lives.

----Porsche----
"Porsche... you bastard! I am getting goosebumps, fuck!" Tem shrugged his shoulders away from me as I rested my hand on his, then brought my nose closer and sniffed his neck.
"Let me do it, just a second. " I said in a smooth voice. Now I'm sitting at the wooden table. I was experimenting something right now, but everyone swivels around, scream and move away from me.
"Shit... motherfucker, Porsche, I don't want to." Tem said as he tried to push my face away.
"Hahaha...you are acting weird Porsche, don't you think?" Pete asked me. Yes, today he followed me to the university according to his plea last night and it turns out he doesn't mess around as he wore a white shirt and lengthy pants to make himself look better.
"I just wanted to know how you feel, Damn...Tem." I brushed My friends' hand But Tem Hurriedly moves to the side beside Pete immediately. They already know each other because they got drunk and crazy together at the bar recently and need I remind you that Pete came here to see girls.
[Porsche needs to stops experimenting 😂]
"Tem, so how do you feel when someone sucks your neck like that?" Tem's expression changed from being frightened to confusion. Looking at the bandages wrapping my neck.
"What the fuck!" I instantly put my hands to cover the tape around my neck. I can say I have three plasters on each side! One bite mark and two kiss marks on both sides, Damn it!
"Who sucked your neck like that?"
"Who sucked what? I just want to put a bandage on it." I said looking annoyed. My left leg under the table is silently shaking and my face paled.
"Yes ... yes ... I believe you. Lately you're easily annoyed, why is that?"
"Friends ..." I said and tried to calm down, but Pete wont stop looking at me with a funny grin on his face,
"What..?"
"What is wrong with you? If you have something to ask, ask directly. Doing strange behaviour like this is quite intimidating you know." Pete said looking at my other friends. I bet he told them about what have I done with Arm.
"Shut up!"
"Did your taste change?"
asked Jom.
"Come on, you don't need to be embarrassed, we are open to such matters Tem still applauds Kinn for being handsome until now." I fell silent as soon as Jom talked about the bastard.
"Bastard! I didn't change my taste. I still like big breasts!" I replied in frustration.
"Do you like Khun Kinn, Tem? Well, my boss..." Pete seemed to be enthusiastic about Jom's words. I didn't let him finish and immediately spoke.
"Let's go into the class and start studying." I was a little annoyed by hearing that idiot's name. I always get anxious just by hearing his name.
"You can go for a walk and do whatever you want. If you are hungry, go to the cafeteria there, when the class is finished, I will call you."
"Are there beautiful girls?" Pete asked, looking around.
"Well, there's none here in the Faculty of Sport Science coz the students are mostly boys. You can go to the Faculty of Communication Arts, to find lots of beautiful girls."
Jom said, suggesting to another building in the distance.
"Cool, I'll go there!" Pete said enthusiastically and Jom instructed him the way.
I went up to the building. I don't know what would have happened to me if I didn't get to know Pete in the gang's house. Pete was the one who treated my wound, he woke me up last night to take medicine and change my bandages and I asked him not to tell Tem and Jom because I am too lazy to answer questions. They also didn't notice because I am wearing a long sleeved shirt to cover it up.
After I finished my classes, I called Pete back to the faculty. He smiled from the cafeteria and walked towards me. I guess the girls must have liked him.
"Hey, what have you got?" I asked him.
"I got two rows of girls lining up!" Pete said while waving with Tem and Jom. I bent down to look behind him. To be honest, I haven't had engaged to any women these past few weeks. I had better find some spare time to hunt with Tem. I feel a little uncomfortable using Japanese AV clips as a way to let out the steam. It did help a little, but it just felt different compared to actually doing it with a girl.
"Are you going back? Shall I drop you?" I asked Pete. Today we came on my motorbike. At first, I suggested to use the car, but I was amazed when he wanted to ride the motorbike with me.
"We can go together and eat at the nearest store." Pete gave me a knowing look, and I frowned when I saw it.
"If you are hungry, why didn't you eat at the cafeteria? What did you do there?"
"Let's go to the shopping mall, I am on my day off, so I want to go out too."
Fuck Pete!! If only you weren't a boxer, I would have knocked you off.
"Let's go, I am hungry too." I sighed childishly. Meanwhile, my two friends also felt obliged to agree with his request. We went straight to the mall with Pete on my bike. Meanwhile, Jom rode in Tem's car.
Arriving, I quitely followed the three of them. I, as well as most men, prefer the outdoors than this mall. Besides, if I didn't need to buy things, I would never come just to eat or take a walk here unless my friends insisted on having a get together occasionally.
"What do you want to eat ... can you hurry up?"
"Are you not happy to be out of the house for a little longer? Plus, I don't need to see our boss, so I am excited." Pete said in a joking manner. I actually agree with what he said. However on holidays, I would rather go home immediately to sleep. I think that doing something like this is a waste of personal energy.
"Let's just eat here, I am too lazy to walk further." I pointed randomly at one of the food store. I rarely eat at a cafe. Eating rice and curry on the roadside is good enough. They look at the menu in front of the shop and agreed on what food we should eat since it was a buffet restaurant. It turned out that the place to eat at was Momo Paradise, a Japanese suki restaurant whose price was quite luxurious for my taste. Normally, I would pay less than a hundred baht, but today I paid over a thousand baht for one meal. It's hard for me but it is I who chose this so maybe I should try some.
"Oh... Pete, what are you doing here..." I heard a familliar voice as chills run up my spine upon hearing it.
"Khun Kinn, hello!" Pete greets his boss, who was wearing his student uniform and was with his three friends who looked familiar. He smiled faintly as he walked straight to my group.
"What a coincidence." He looked at me, but I turned my face away to avoid his gaze.
"What are you up to?" Kinn asked.
"Oh, it is my day off, so I went to see Porsche's institute and find some girls," Pete said with a chuckle. My other friends raised their hands to wai to the group. It looks like they are third-year students whereas we are in the second year. But I won't do the same huh!
No wayyy!!!!
"Time, do you want to eat at this restaurant?" Kinn turned his head to ask his friend to which he answered with a nod.
"I have met my bodyguard, so let us have a meal together, my treat."
I turned back as I looked at him with a frown.
"Thanks," My friends and Pete said in unison. We are not able to choose, but I don't have the tolerance today to look at him for a longer period if time so it is better to go and find something else.
"Where are you going?" He asked as he moved in front of me.
"That is my business." I snapped looking at him.
"Hey, aren't we going to eat together?"
"No." I said, my face calm, trying not to look too much into the eyes of the man in front of me.
"Let us eat together ... I will treat you ..." Kinn said, his face calm but his voice was long and restless.
"That is why I do not want to." I sighed. I don't know what else he will use to bother me. The earlier incident is still glued in my mind and I still cannot find an answer until I got tired of understanding everything about it.
"Usually, you like to extort money out of me, right? (Referring to their first meet) Well, today I will treat you to the most expensive food."
He said as he stepped closer to me, I took a step back.
What is he doing stepping up to me like that? It shocked me!!!
"I won't eat with you!" I refused the invitation again.
"Come on hurry up and sit down." Suddenly, Pete's arm wrapped around my shoulder and locked my position to sit back down with him. I tried to fight back and fought hard to rebuff but it was all in vain. All eyes are looking at us, watching in confusion.
Probably because of Kinn's handsome face and because they have no idea what kind of person he is. A female staff member walked over to our table. Pete didn't let me go until the two of them managed to push and maneuver me to sit on the chair again. Kinn shifted to sit next to me, I was then ready to get up and leave again.
"I ... what ... no, if you dont sit there and eat peacefully, I will put my feet over yours like this." He said stepping on my foot under the table.
Dammit, he is smart ... I pushed against each side, grunted a little and then gave up to continue sitting there. Kinn, after making sure that I can't escape, came to sit opposite mine and the others completely spread out, clearly divided.
The guards sat on the table one either side of us. Kinn's friend accepted the menu and skillfully ordered the food. Meanwhile, he looked up from playing on his cellphone and stared at me. I pretend to look across to the other side of the table, trying to ignore him!
"Have you taken your medicine today?" He suddenly asked me. I glanced at Tem and Jom in fear they might hear what the asshole has said. He always brings up that incident. The day I still remember how hard he cursed me for being so careless.
"You are so noisy!!" I answered as I leaned back on the chair, raising my hands to stop him from saying further. Kinn gave a throaty laugh and smirked. It is the times like these that really scare me as he always likes to taunt me with suspicious faces.
He really is a psychopath!
"Please allow permission to serve." The staff put the pork and beef cutlets down, then my friends walked to get the vegetables on the buffet table. There were so many dishes on the table that it was filled with fresh meat and vegetables waiting to be cooked in the black hot pot.
"Eat up."
Pete took the vegetables and meat then drop them on the hot pot grill. I admit it smells delicious as I have never eaten something like this before. However, unknown to everyone but myself and Pete, Kinn had turned a deathly shade of white.
"Ah ... I'm okay, but can you eat meat?" Kinn dropped the meat on my plate. I slightly tilted my face and uttered a profanity.
"I can still use my hands thank you." Then I grabbed my chopsticks and put the cutlet on my plate. He smiled with satisfaction, lowered his head and continued eating. I am the only one with a confused face. I saw the entire table was focused on eating, so I took some meat and put it in the grill. When I saw that it was well cooked, I took it and went to dip it into the sauce, but I didn't see any cup of sauce as I looked around the table.
Then I realized that everyone was not using a sauce to eat and that they just took the cooked meat and mix it in raw egg and eat like that... isn't that strange?
"This Japanese sukiyaki is eaten with raw eggs," Kinn said. The egg in the cup was far from me.
"You can try mine first, my eggs are not fishy."
Suddenly I heard a cough, it was Pete's choking voice right after Kinn finished speaking. I looked at him in surprise then turned around and kept looking at Kinn.
What?
[😂😂 Pete the bastard knows it]
"I don't want to eat that"
then I stuffed my mouth with the raw meat without dipping it in any sauce. It tastes good anyway. But dipping it into raw egg?....I don't want to get diarrhea.
"What the hell or do you want to eat something fishy? I have it ..."
Kinn took the egg cup back to its original place. The annoyed tones in his voice and a face who looks like someone who wants a revenge kept looking my way and yet it felt natural to keep quiet.
"Dont mess with me today!" I used his own words against him.
"It's delicious," Pete said as he chewed. I continued to eat, the taste of the food starting to replace the irritation in my heart! All right this is not soo bad.
"Do you not like to eat vegetables at all?" Kinn asked because, for my third course, I am eating more meat and do not even come close to vegetables at all.
"Yes!" I answered in an annoyed voice.
"Weak" I took a deep breath, trying to ignore his words. The more he talked about it, the more he won the hearts of people like this rascal beside me.
"Do you eat mochi?" Now I am sure, he wanted to start a conversation with me, how annoying it feels. I lifted my head to stare at him angrily.
Can I eat in peace? bastard!
"What is mochi? A dessert?"I asked. Is he going to bother me again? I dont have any idea what it is just by looking at it, so I am naive. Oi, I knew it okay!
"Huh ... not mochi. Mochi is a type of flour! Oh! Let's eat."
Kinn laughed while shaking his head and clipped the soft flour out of the bowl and put it on my plate. I looked at him in disbelief before he ate his serving of mochi. I am lazy to ask more about it and I take a bite because it looks weird and maybe tastes good.
"Is it edible?" I asked.
"Of course, to be honest, it is just flour with regular broth."
"Can you really eat it?" Pete repeated my words, so I lifted my head and looked at him with a frown.
"Yes, it can be eaten!!" He answered.
"Tell yourself that...." He let out a haughty laugh followed by a playful smile at the corner of his mouth.
"What did you say?" Seeing Kinn and Pete laughing for a long time, I turned to look at the grinning Pete. I want to ask what they are talking about but when he noticed me looking, he returned to being serious and asked me to continue eating.
What are they up to?
"Second brother!" The voice made the entire table turn to look. The tall man, as handsome as Kinn, walked with a confident smile towards our table.
"Hey, Vegas," Kinn said grinning.
"Hello, P'Tae, P'Time, P'Mew."
"Why is your cousin Vegas here?" Asked his friend named Tae, smiling sweetly at the new comer until the man named Time pulled his head back. I am a little confused by his behaviour, but I am not really bothered.
"Ah, I just came to meet my friend." Vegas as what Kinn Called him was somehow familar to me, because he was one of the guests at Kinn's House.
"What are you celebrating today? It seems Like everyone is gathering?"
"No, we are just having lunch, do you want to eat too? Why don't you join us?" Kinn said thoughtfully.
"Hmmm ... I will just sit here and wait for my friend. I promised to meet him at this restaurant." Kinn motions Vegas to sit next to him. Then he turned to look at me, I smiled back politely.
"Eat up."
"No, better if nong sits and waits."
"Well, look how lucky, it's Kinn who is with us today, if the one to meet him was Khun, the suki pot would have certainly landed on Vegas's head," Pete whispers to me in a low voice, which makes me wonder.
"Why?"
"Oh! It seems like there is no way the Main and Second family can get along. Only Kinn can have a better relationship with them than the others."
"So, he comes from the second family ..."
"Yes, and his little brother Macau, the kid you were going to hit on that meeting day."
"They must be cousins, right?" I murmured back to Pete.
"Hi ..." Vegas unexpectedly greeted me.
"..."
I can only look at him and bow my head slightly in greeting. I don't know if he still holds a grudge because of what happened that day. Even Kinn's family cursed me and he was the rotten boy's older brother, so naturally, he would have a grudge against me.
"Phi Kinn, he's the one who wanted to slap Macau, right? Hahaha,"
Kinn nodded as I kept my eyes glued at the suki pot.
"Why don't you slap him? I will even let you do it twice." He said but I don't know whether it is a joke or sarcasm. What I'm certain is that when he said it, he smiled and laughed, but still looked polite.
"How is Macau?" Kinn asked to his cousin as he took the mochi placing it in my plate again. I saw Vegas' eyes follow the little gesture. I was frustrated that he took a lot of food and moved it on to my plate.
"Enough ... I am full." I keep the rude words in my throat because I remember Kinn's words well that I must respect him when we are in front of the second clan and his guests. So, I try to speak with respect...
"Keep eating, am I making you uncomfortable?" Vegas asked me.
I just shook my head instead of answering. Right now, it is as if there is a partition that separates me, Kinn, Vegas and Pete, and mine and Kinn's friends as if there's a wall between, They talk and chat in a relaxed manner, it seems like it was fun, but strangely this side felt a little deranged and stiff.
"Oh, Porsche, I have been wanting to ask. Did someone hurt your neck?" The invisible wall is broken when Time stared at my neck curiously. I am not surprised that he found out my name, this bastard Kinn often calls me when he is with his friends.
"He said that pretending to put on a bandage around his neck is a weird new trend." Tem replied and smiled. On the other hand, I saw Kinn who was leaning back on the chair infront of me, crossed his arms along his chest while smiling.
SHIT... It is all because of you, bastard!
"A new trend? Wow! You?"
Someone called Mew said. I didn't respond to anything and sneakily looked at Kinn. Damn!!! I hated seeing put on a happy face. I was getting frustrated seeing that smug look on Kinn's face until I forget that right now, people are watching me.
"It must be very hot," said Vegas who saw my face began to blush. I didn't want to be the center if attention so I got up and walked out of there.
"Where are you going?" Exclaimed Pete.
"I am done, and I want to go home," I replied impudently without looking back.
"Hey, you'll go and leave me like this? Khun Kinn, I will leave now, thank you for the treat" Pete shouted, after a while, he followed me. I hurried to the parking lot and immediately started up the motorbike, which Pete hurriedly jumped on the back of.
"Your attitude is really bad just finished eating and walked away." Pete looked up as the motorbike sped away.
"You want me to take you home right away?"
"No! Tonight, can I sleep at your house? Play a game or something ...., I don't want to go back there."
"No, so you better go back to your house."
"My house is in another province I want to play on your home computer; you said you have a lot of games on the computer."
I took a deep breath. I don't know what has possessed Pete today. All-day he is sticking to me and now he wants to sleep at my house.
Shit Pete!!! Even though I rushed home because I wanted to sleep and rest. I guess it is because Pete interacts with that bastard Kinn a lot, so he started catching Kinn's annoying virus.
"Are you not working tomorrow? How are you going to get back? I don't want to get up early."
I quickly denied him, because I only had a ten o'clock class tomorrow, so I wanted to sleep a little longer.
"Oh, I will take a taxi, so take it easy."
As soon as I got home, I fell on my bed. Today is very exhausting just like during working hours. Instead of being happy and enjoying my college time outside of the mafia house, I had to meet that damn Kinn again!
"Take your medicine." Pete walked over with the medicine and a water bottle in hand. Once he toured around my house, he immediately walked to the kitchen. It is also felt weird to have someone watch over me and bring medicine.
"I will clean your wound a bit," Pete said as he pulled the first aid bag from my closet.
"You don't have to take care of me this much." I said, scowling at the same time. I know that he is good, but maybe this is a little too much right?
"Come on.."
I kept silent and pulled my sleeves up letting Pete wrapping it in a new bandage. I took a peak outside and found no shoes. Che must not be home, I was relieved. Because if he saw this, he'll definitely ask lot's of questions and I'll have to explain him everything.
Pak, pak, pak.
The sound of footsteps coming from the next room made me pull my arm out of Pete's hand and pull the sleeve of my shirt down.
"Phi is back ... I knew it!!"
Che's face looked happy at first, but when he saw me, he suddenly stopped. Even if I could cover my wounds quickly, it was not faster than Che's eyes staring at me confused. He walked over to me and lifted my sleeve. Pete stepped back a little and looked at my brother in confusion.
"I was walking careless, so the branches left some scratches on my arm." I said softly, secretly holding my breath. I know my brother didn't believe in what I just said.
"...."
Silence spread in the atmosphere. I turned my eyes away and looked outside. While Che continuously stared at me.
"Who the fuck are you...?" Pete yells, as he could not stand this awkwardness.
"My brother, Porchè....and this Bastard is Pete...oiii Pete pay respect to my brother." I tried to joke to lighten up the atmosphere, but seems like it didn't work.
"Hi.." Pete raised his hands and waved at my brother, who doesn't bother to even glance at Pete, but stares at me with anger in his eyes.
"I am sure nong doesn't believe you. Damn... when you're angry, you look like that too!" Whispered Pete again as I sighed.
"I thought you weren't home, I didn't see any shoes"
"I took them off at the back side of the house....Phi haven't changed at all, What happened to you?" Che asked in a raspy voice. Sitting between me and Pete. I glanced at my wound again.
"Oh.. it's just uh.. A bullet grazed my arm. Nothing else." I said in a soft tone.
"Bullets?! You got hit!!!" Che shouted loudly
"Stop screaming, my ears aches!"
"How can this be alright? After this, then what?" He continued to scream non-stop.
"I am fine," I said softly. I didn't even dare to look at him.
Che was still grumbling and forcing me to quit my job, so Pete had to take a step back and go to the dinning room to leave us alone.
At the time of the incident at the shooting range, I just followed my anger and never had the thought to stop. Maybe that is one of my weaknesses. When I am angry, I tend to lose control of myself. But after this, I must think a lot before deciding. If it is only me, it is okay.
However, Che would definitely dig my grave, curse me and won't let me die in peace. I was just thinking about that, when I saw his face that was looking at me so disappointedly.
"Don't do this again. You have to get out of that organization!"
"Che, I promise there won't happen again... I am sorry." My voice softened before turning to look at Che and gently rubbing his head.
"I don't believe that. I am afraid something more serious will happen to you." He said with trembling hands.
"No..there won't be ... I promise, everything will be fine."
"This time, if your head had been shot, what would you do?" He asked again.
I kept saying that I wouldn't quit.
"I am tough you know!" It took me a long time to comfort him.
"I have a strange feeling about this. I am worried about you, don't you ?" His eyes flickered, and I ruffled his hair softly.
"You think too much."
"Really Phi, I have been having a strange dream too." he held a serious expression on his face with his hand holding on to my arm, asking me to believe what he said.
"What dream did you have?"
I asked back.
"That Hia is crying."
(Hia also means brother)
Che was even more uncomfortable, and this time, he spoke in a trembling voice, lowering his head as if he were thinking of an image in his dream.
Che closed his mouth tightly and looked back at me worriedly before inhaling sharply. Making a terrible face, he then finished putting the bandage back on my wound.
"Can you leave this job, I am feeling uncomfortable, Phi... that dream feels real. I keep crying, but I couldn't do anything." The fact that his voice began to shake means he is serious about this so I had to reach out, grabbing his neck in my arms and jokingly smacked his head.
"Stop the drama, I am embarrassed in front of my friend." Pete who was still sitting, waved at me and my brother, smiling as if to say: 'finally you guys noticed someone sitting over here!"
I shook my head gently, as I must calm him down with a gentle head smack. I don't know what the future holds, and I was not surprised that Che was so distracted. This intuition of his was probably because he kept thinking about me doing dangerous work. He is going to continue being like this ... So, I thought over the things that happened and felt bad for him....
