Bangladesh to Thailand: The Journey of Nil and Stranger's Love [BL]

Chapter 9-Stranger the Guardian Angel

Lava approached Kao with concern etched on her face, her voice gentle as she inquired, "Kao, is there something you need?"

His frustration and anger flared as he responded with a terse edge in his voice, "Will you all please leave me alone? There's no point in explaining to any of you. I'm leaving."

Lava attempted to reach out, calling his name, "But, Kao..."

However, her pleas fell on deaf ears as Kao disregarded her and swiftly departed. He took the wheel of his car, and as the engine roared to life, a torrent of questions swirled in his mind.

Suddenly, Kao's attention was seized by a troubling sight. Nil was walking down the road, pursued by three menacing young men who seemed to revel in their cruelty, relentlessly taunting him. With each step, Nil pressed forward, determined to ignore their presence.

However, the situation took a sinister turn as one of the tormentors seized Nil's hand, his intentions clearly sinister. He advanced, attempting to touch Nil inappropriately. In a desperate act of self-defense, Nil raised his hand to ward off the aggressor. But, just as he did, another one of the thugs lunged and successfully immobilized Nil's arm.

Kao's temper flared, and he approached the scene with the air of a protective hero. Confronting the bullies, they dared to challenge him, their demeanor a mix of arrogance and menace.

One of the goons sneered, "If you want to live, you'd better back off."

Kao, his voice firm and laced with an underlying warning, retorted, "If I were to make the same offer to you, I doubt it would be in your best interest."

With an unwavering determination, Kao held Nil's hand and led him towards the car, resolute in his protective stance. But one of the aggressors, undeterred and fueled by their collective arrogance, attempted to snatch Nil's hand once more. This time, however,  Kao didn't hesitate; he unleashed a swift punch and sternly declared, "How dare you touch him again."

The blows rained down, and a fierce altercation ensued. During the scuffle, Kao's previously injured hand began to bleed once more, and his car sustained damage from the confrontation. The chaos continued as one of the assailants tried to launch a surprise attack from behind, but Nil intervened, using a large stone to fend off the attacker. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Nil, despite his reservations, placed a call to the police.

As the siren of approaching police vehicles grew louder, the attackers fled in haste. Nil turned to Kao, puzzled and concerned, and inquired, "Why did you feel the need to get involved with them on my behalf?"

 Nil's handkerchief was now bound tightly around Kao's injured hand, and he gazed at Nil, his thoughts a whirlwind. He muttered to himself, "I always try to distance myself from you, but you keep finding a way back into my life, again and again. Why, Nil? Why do you make this so difficult for me?"
