Bangkok.
"Perth!" The woman squealed with joy before literally running to Perth.
"Bua" Perth said unimpressively.
"Gosh! I missed you so much!" Bua said while snaking her arms around Perth's neck and planting a kiss on Perth's left cheek.
"Nice to see you again Bua" Perth said grimacing before he pried the arms away from his neck. He ignored the frown on Bua's face when he was not so discreetly wiping the kiss' trace on his cheek.
Perth's attention shifted towards Saint who was kneeling on the floor.
"Saint, are you alright? Why are you kneeling on the floor? Your knee's still hurting. Sit on the bed." He said while approaching Saint.
Saint stood up just before Perth got to touch him. "I'm going to clean the bathroom. Please excuse me sir, ma'am." He said before walking away from the scene.
Perth frowned while looking at Saint retreating backside. He thought that they already had some developement but at that moment he was not sure anymore. In his plan, he wanted to have some time alone with the gorgeous boy but Bua's presence had to ruin his chance. He made a mental note to talk to Saint after that.
Bua glared at the retreating maid with a scowl on her face before her expression shifted. "Perth! Let's have brunch together. It's been a long time since we hang out together." She smiled at Perth while holding on his arm.
Perth pulled his arm away from Bua's hold. "I don't know Bua. I need to meet Mean." Perth said before he walked into his closet.
Bua pouted but she didn't want to give up. "What about dinner? We can have dinner before my flight" She said while trailing after Perth into his closet.
Perth opened his drawer. "You're going back to New York tonight?"
"Yes... what a pity isn't it? I want to spend more time with you." Bua whispered seductively after stepping in front of Perth. She held on Perth's robe sash while batting her lashes seductively at the tall lad.
Perth's laugh boomed in the closet. "Bloody hell Bua! You're scaring me. Please leave my closet now because I want to dress up."
"Perth! We need to talk. Your mother wants to have a brunch together." Bua reasoned didn't want to give up.
Perth sighed. His mother was meddling. "Fine, get out from here. I want to wear my pants." Perth said while pushing Bua out from his closet.
"Perth!" Bua shouted in front of the closed door. She crossed her arms on her chest. She always got what she wants, she told herself.
Saint closed the bathroom door tightly after he heard the booming laugh from the closet. He leaned against the door while exhaling a soft sight.
"Of course he has a woman..." Saint muttered under his breath. But why did he feel sick? His stomach knotted when he saw the woman kissed Perth's cheek.
Saint traced the band-aid on his finger. "He should stop being so kind to me." He whispered. Shaking all the thoughts away from his mind, he went to resume his work.

"Both of you are looking good together." Tuli said with a lingering smile on her face.
Bua was smiling shyly after she put down the scones on Perth's plate.
Perth groaned before he took his cup of coffee sipping on the hot liquid while rolling his eyes. He would rather burn his tongue than imagining them together.
