"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep
because reality is finally better than your dreams."
― Dr. Seuss
[Ram's POV]
I had always thought that one was with predictable behaviour when viewed as a whole. What I meant is we move like a shoal of fish from one point of departure to one destination; no matter if you were someone rich, poor, young or old. So perhaps I had indeed become one of the many at a time I didn't even realize, feeding off the impulses of those around me to consult my decisions. I wonder what it took to think like an individual in the center of a crowd, or even if walking one's own path was possible.
Honestly, I had a feeling that my life has been planned since the day I was born. Well, don't get me wrong. I was very thankful that the Kijworalaks were the ones to "adopt" me. They gave me at least something which I could call it home: The KR. Bodyguard Organization. However, this uneasy feeling somehow faded away a little since there is someone who suddenly entered my life. He seemed to be the lighthouse that guided the boats towards their destination and helped them to find the right path when they were lost in the darkness.
"Hi, is it your first time being here?" said the man behind me as he sat on the chair next to me.
He saw the shock register on my face before I could hide it. A small smile played on his lips. He probably did that a lot. It wasn't what he said though, his words were normal; normal in a strange sort of way. It was more the richness of his tones – luxurious and warm. He must be a baritone in church. However, he seemed to be very young, I'd say around the age of twenties. His face and his voice just didn't match together and honestly, I'd never have put the two of them together. I bet he also got this kind of comment a lot.
(That's my boi King ready to steal ur man's heart hahahahaha)
"King, are you trying to get another prey? Hahaha," a young man voice caught my attention. He was walking toward us wearing an expensive white suit. He has a bright and fair skin with a sharp and cold face; his thick eyebrows raised slightly as we made eye contact. Under the long and curly eyelashes, the wild and unrestrained eyes were shining while taking a seat beside his friend. His whole person emitted a kind of monstrous monarchy vibe. An evil smile appeared on his face as he was obviously joking earlier, but it somehow seemed offensive to me.
I didn't like him. His first impression gave me chills as his eyes seemed to hide too many secrets. I frowned my eyebrows when I heard the word "prey".
"Nah, not really. But Vee, guess what? I feel some kind of chemistry between me and....this hottie" then he continued "May I know your name?"
"..." I reminded in silence.
"Pfttt" the man named Vee suddenly laughed. I couldn't understand what did he found funny, but at least he broke the awkward silence. I wasn't trying to be rude. It was just the duty of a bodyguard to keep the mouth shut when it wasn't necessary to speak: a question about security and privacy.
"Then, let me tell you a secret." he gave his friend a dirty look before he turned his head toward me and said with a very seductive smile.
"Do you know what my shirt is made of? It's 100% boyfriend materia-" he wasn't able to finish his pick up line since Mark's voice interrupted it.
"Ram, why are you so slow? Can is legit begging for more alcohol. Argh, he is such a problematic kid when he became drunk" Mark stopped talking when he saw Vee and he was just starring intensively at him. A bad feeling rushed to my heart.
"Do you two know each other?" I asked with a very calm voice.
"Yes and No. Well, I mean we have met before, but not enough to actually say that we know each other"
Vee's face showed a little disappointment.
[Third Person POV]
Vee gave a quick laugh as a way to hide his sadness and put his arm around his friend King, "Then, let me introduce myself. My name is Vee and I am 22 years old." Then he turned his head slightly to look at his companion, "And this playboy here-agh" the person next to him nudged him in the stomach and Vee curled up because of the pain.
"My name is King and I am the owner of this bar." he paused a little and walked one step closer to Ram, "I am also single."
Again, Ram frowned his eyebrows. He felt dangerously attracted to this man. King's eyes were too sharp just like an arrow that penetrated his target without pity.
"Since we are all here, how about we take a drink together?" said Vee and he taped King's shoulders, "I am sure he doesn't have any complaint."
Ram signed silently, "Please this way" he grabbed the bottle of wine on the counter and led the group to the VIP room.
When they arrived, Ram was frozen in place.
He pushed his door open against the tide of objects that littered the floor on the other side. He couldn't see even a square centimetre of the VIP room's red carpet. Mark picked his way across the room on tiptoe, trying not to stand on any of the empty bottles of beer. The room wasn't just a mess, it was a disaster zone. It looked like a drunken cyclone had erupted in the room silently. The only clues that this uber-chaos was human-made were the partially drunken cups of alcohol littered about the floor and bedside table in various states of mould growth.
Ram's brain stuttered for a moment and his eyes took in more information than he expected, every part of him went on pause while his thoughts caught up. After a quick look around the room, he stepped from the chamber, feeling a cold chill that climbed up his spine. Mark placed one hand on Ram's shoulder, "It'll be okay, it will."
Vee and King clearly didn't understand the situation. Ram turned to face them, but too slowly to be normal. When he spoke his voice trails slowly like his words are unwilling to take flight. There is a panic in his eyes as he tried to be calm but his shaking voice betrayed him.
"Can disappears."
