The moment I saw the other man, who was glowering at Max my fuzzy brain patched the details and I knew who they were. But what puzzled me was why were they here.

"Is there a remote possibility that you could ever behave in a responsible manner?" The first guy demanded angrily.

The two still hadn't noticed me, they were so focused on Max.

"Why are you here?" Max asked. "And why do you always have to come unannounced?" Max was sounding irritated.

"If you would bother to pick your phone, sorry, first if you bothered to keep your phone switched on we would be able to call you." The second guy shouted at Max.

"Do you even check the news? This area has been on red alert for the past 4 days. And we couldn't get through to you. What did you expect us to do?" Now it was the first guy who was shouting.

"And why the hell is the generator off? Can you ever stop acting childish and grow up a little?"

"And why the hell are you naked?"

I had had enough of watching them attack Max with their words. I saw him fold his arms across his chest and shift from one foot to the other.

I walked down the remaining steps and circled my arm around his bare shoulders. I didn't care what their relationship with Max was, but I was not going to stand around and let them yell at him.

"Hi Khun New!" I greeted the second guy, then turning slightly to the first guy and greeted him as well. "Hi Khun Gulf!"

The two looked at me just a little startled.

"Khun Tul!" New exclaimed in surprise.

New was one of the popular actors in the entertainment industry presently and was currently on contract with one of my companies. The other man was Gulf who was a star football player with the national team. He had appeared in interviews on several of the sports and news channels that my company owned, but I had never met him in person before. Unlike New whom I had met on several occasions, thanks to my cousin Tay who was very much interested in him.

Gulf greeted me with a silent waai and looked at me curiously. I could make out from his expression he knew who I was. After all I regularly made the front page news thanks to the nature of my business and my close connections with several political leaders and other huge business empires and ofcourse celebrities.

"Would you two like something to eat or drink maybe?" Max asked in a resigned voice. "What about you P'Tul? Would you like some coffee, chocolate or maybe a night cap?"

He shrugged off my hand and walked down the remaining steps and headed towards the kitchen not waiting for anyone's answer.

The other two exchanged a look of exasperation, spared me a brief look and followed him.

I in my turn made a small detour to the linen cupboard and took out 2 bathrobes. I wore one and took one to Max, who just took it and draped it on one of the chairs. It did make me a little uncomfortable to have Max flash his body in front of the other two men.

But from the looks of it the two were atleast used to it or were disinterested. Which made me quite curious about their relationship with Max. They couldn't possibly be brothers. As far as I knew New and Gulf were not related. Otherwise some fan or the other would have by now found out a connection. Neither had I ever heard of Max being related to either of them.

"Its odd seeing you here Khun Tul." New remarked.

"Likewise!" I replied. Hoping he would take the hint and elaborate.
