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

Chapter 45-Chasing Chocolate Dreams

In the eerie stillness of Lava's room at 2:30 am, darkness enveloped her as she sat on the floor, back against the bed. Beside her lay a mobile phone, a digital repository of memories from her college days with Kao. Two tears glistened in her eyes as she uttered to herself, a blend of anguish and frustration in her voice, "Kao is not with me; he's with that Nil. He should have been with me. I want to sleep with my head on Kao's chest. Why is that damn Nil in my place? Arghhh...ahhhh."

Her internal turmoil echoed in the room. After a moment, she decided to reach out to Mis. Nin, finding solace in the familiarity of a late-night conversation. However, her call was abruptly cut, leaving Lava simmering with indignation. "How dare she cut my call?" she exclaimed in a tone laced with anger.

Determined, Lava dialed again, and this time, Mis. Nin answered. Yet, instead of engaging in a conversation, Mis. Nin preemptively spoke, her tone tinged with irritation, "How dare you to call me? What a girl you are; you couldn't attract a young man to yourself. But I will do what you couldn't."

Perplexed, Lava inquired, "What do you want to do?" The question lingered unanswered as Mis. Nin abruptly ended the call. Frustration surged within Lava, prompting her to hurl the mobile onto the bed.

As time ticked by, her mobile stirred to life with a ringing tone, eliciting a momentary excitement. Hopeful that it might be Kao on the line, she hastily answered, only to find an unknown number on the display. With hands trembling, she reluctantly picked up the call, pondering, "Who could call from an unknown number so late at night?"

In the quietude of the night, a voice pierced through the darkness, instantly recognizable as Gamora, the formidable contract killer. Her words, delivered with a stern edge, cut through the air.

Gamora: "Why does it take so long to pick up the phone? I don't have much time to talk. Send me 80 thousand baht to my account within 2 hours."

Lava, taken aback, retorted, "What money? I've already paid you in full. Where am I supposed to get such a sum on short notice?"

Gamora, unmoved, replied, "Where to bring it, what to do—it's not my headache. That's something you should have considered before hiring me to deal with Nil."

Lava sighed, probing, "Are you blackmailing me?"

Gamora, with a hint of indifference, affirmed, "You can take it as you wish."

Growing increasingly frustrated, Lava's anger surfaced, "Youuuu..."
