**************************

The week flew in the blur and it was Friday already again. Time seems to fly so fast these days. After our breakfast, Forth has been very diligent in introducing me to some of his favorite breakfast stall. So, it's safe to say we've been having breakfast together since then.

Professor auntie decided to just let us go early after our nerve wracking, brain draining, hearth stopping moving exam. Kit and Pha decided to eat out with their boyfriends at a mall somewhere around the city.

They invited me but I'm not really in the mood to dine out so I just decided to go to the engineering food court to eat some tom yum. Yes. I'm eating tom yum. Just that. No other reason whatsoever not even hoping to see a certain someone.

I arrived at the engineering food court, parked my car, and made a beeline to the tom yum stall. Since its still quite early, there are only a few students here and there maybe perhaps waiting for their next subject or just arrived early but doesn't want to go inside the classroom just yet...

Satisfied with my meal and drink, I scan the area for a nice spot to eat. There, just outside the food court, are tables scattered strategically and is shaded by trees. I chose a good spot and sat down. The moment I did thought, I can hear a gasp from students around me.

I already notice them staring at me the moment I entered the food court, although it was not uncommon for a med student to be here or from other colleges, but me, being me just draw some unwanted attention I really tried to don't mind them at all.

As I was starting to enjoy my tom yum, more students have been arriving already. It was lunch time. They had a curious glance thrown at me and some looks at me with pity. What's wrong with this people? Is it already a sin eating here? I groaned inwardly but continue eating my noodles. A senior approach me, judging by his red jacket and he spoke to me.

"Nong, do you mind changing tables?" he said softly. He also has the same kind of expression as everyone else. Like I'm a dead meat. weird this guy... I told me.

"I'm almost done na, P' and after I'm finish, I'll clean up and I'll go ahead" I said with respect.

"You don't understand nong, This table is actually reserved for..." he wasn't able to finish his sentence and his eyes grow big looking past me. I can also hear the hushed voices around the food court and felt a very tense atmosphere. I, on the other hand, was stump as I saw Forth having the same girl I saw the last time I was here still in his arms and looking very sweet from a distant food stall.

"Sawadee ka P' Wad!" I heard a familiar voice behind me. I turn around and saw Park talking, Lam with him looking curiously at us.

"sawadee nong Park, nong Lam, I'm already asking this nong to vacate your table. I'm sorry about this. He didn't know about the rules here..." he explained looking determined.

"That's fine na P'! Beam is actually our friend so we don't mind" Lam said.

"I..." I started and looked back at Forth who is already looking straight at me. The girl is also looking at me curiously with a little smirk. what's your problem? I don't even know you! I groaned internally.

The commotion must have got his attention earlier as he made a quick stride towards us. He still has his eyes locked on me and still has the girl in his arms. I cleared my throat and confidently muttered,

"I'll go ahead now. Park, Lam, see you around. Goodbye, P!" I made a wai and was ready to make a quick getaway as a heavy feeling started to overwhelm me. I don't want to see Forth. His stupid face makes me angry.

I quickly cleaned up my plate and was ready to dash away but Forth beat me to it. He was at my side already and I didn't even notice him arriving. He held my arms stopping me from going anywhere. The girl forgotten 3 steps back.

"Hey Beam! You didn't tell me you are having lunch here!" he said, sounding a little sad with his stupid sad face. I wanted to empty my half-eaten noodles in his face.

"Oh, hey Forth! I am now finished so I'll go ahead" taking advantage of his stupid confuse expression, I made a quick getaway, thrown my half-eaten noodles into a bin and headed to the counter to deposit my empty tray and plate.

But even before I can breathe a sigh of relief, Forth was all over me again. He has a mischievous and now playful glint in his eyes and he has his hand securely grasping my arm. Damn those eyes! I want to remove those using my scalpel and stomp them repeatedly then feed it to the birds. Damn you, Jutarapoom! I curse him inwardly. I'm being overly dramatic. 

"What are you doing Forth?" I ask him in my cold voice

"Where are you going Beam?" he replied with a question.

"I'm going back to meds. I have classes" I quickly lied and he chuckled. The nerve of this guy! That's it! I'm castrating him!

"Curiously, I happen to bump into Ming before going here and he told me he will be meeting kit outside campus since you Med students don't have anything to do until later this afternoon" I'm sorry Kit but I'm castrating Ming together with his stupid senior! I made the plan internally.

"I was about to call you to ask you what's your plan until this afternoon but here you are!" he continued, looking proud. The nerve of this guy! I really hate his guts!

"I'll just to back to my dorm, Forth. I'll rest a bit". I informed him.

"That would be a waste of time, Beam. I tell you what. Why not join me first for lunch then you can stay at our hideout until your class resumes? I'm really hungry na. na na???" He eagerly suggested.

"I don't think your girlfriend would like you spending time with me instead of her" I blurted out like a jealous-not-even-a-boyfriend tone.

"What girlfriend?" He amusedly asked. I just rolled my eyes at him and started to go to my waiting car.

"Wait, Beam! If you mean P' Sandee, trust me, I love my sanity too much so I would never date her. Besides, she's my soon to be in-law" he explained like explaining to a 5-year-old that 1 + 1 is 2. Curiously, after hearing those words, the heaviness in my chest strangely vanished.

"I'm really hungry na, Beam. Let's go back inside na?" Forth again with his needy voice.

I just nodded and he casually slip his hand into mine then pulling me back inside the food court. I peek at our entwined hands and the giddy feeling is back. Again, I'm not complaining because I'm enjoying this.
