Me After You

Too Late

Even though the clock Is still spinning
I have to stop loving you

Don't look at me with eyes like that
It makes my heart ache
The things I've given you with all my heart
You've never looked at them, never notice them

Don't tell me you love me
Not today
It makes it hard to withhold tears
If it was really important to you, why did you neglect me?
You threw away the love and the memories
Let the time pass until it was too late

You threw away the love and the memories
Let the time pass until it was too late

Beam doesn't want to go home but he can't disobey his parents. He was staring at the Jaturaphoom family present at their dining table. He doesn't understand why they're here and what's their purpose. He had a hunch that this something to do with Forth since the guy seems happy while eating.

The two Jaturaphoom brothers were just silently eating while Mrs. Jaturaphoom was giving him death glares and Mr. Jaturaphoom had a smirk on his face. He looked at his parents and he can sense that they are tense. He glanced at Chahub beside him and the big baby seems restless as well.

After dinner, both families went to the living room.

"Let's cut to the chase here Robert. I asked you nicely but you are not cooperating. I don't have any choice but to do it this way." Mr. Jaturaphoom sternly said to the head of the Baramee family.

"What do you mean?"

"I will remove you as the shareholder under all of my companies that you are included and automatic all our agreed business deals will be canceled. And you know what that means."

"No, you can't. That's a breach of contract." Mr. Baramee yelled.

"Oh, you forget that it stated on section 10, under every contract you've signed, that the highest shareholder or the owner of the company can and will have the right to terminate the agreed contract under any circumstances that the other shareholders agreed for the termination."

"You're playing dirty here Greg." Mr. Baramee sternly said.

"Well, business is business Robert and I don't have any choice. If you don't believe me. Here's a copy of our agreed contracts and the signed agreement by all the shareholders."

Mr. Jaturaphoom threw the documents at the center table and Mr. Baramee took it all and read it.

Beam saw his parents worried face. He looked at the Jaturaphoom family across him. Mr. Jarturaphoom was sitting at the single chair while looking at his father's misery. Mrs. Jaturaphoom sat on the long sofa with Forth and the other two Jaturaphoom heir. The two brothers of Forth whom he knew as Earth and Mew was just giving stoic expressions. But when he looked at Forth, the guy was smiling. He doesn't like the atmosphere and where this talk is going.

"What's going on here?" Beam said while suppressing his anger.

"Oh, you didn't know. I asked your father to let Forth marry you but he refused."

"That's because Beam's not a thing that you can just own if you want." Mr. Baramee yelled.

"Honey, stop. Relax." Mrs. Baramee said trying to pacify his furious husband.

"Let me tell you Robert. You owe me a lot. If I didn't help you and have you as one of my business associates, if my father did not buy your family's dying bus company then you will not be where you are right now. You will not have that money, power, and that status. Your family will be one of those low-class street beggars. So, think twice before you fight against me."
