CHAPTER 25

a/n: I love this two. Oh well! I am in a writing frenzy so please let me...

*****

It's the Sunday and I was back at my dorm room. After the Boss' emotional confession, I want to comfort him but he dismissed me.

I didn't take it personally as Pran had pointed out, the Boss doesn't want to show tears. Because, after losing his only son, he always says that tears are a sign of weakness.

I was left alone in my room in the huge mansion but I didn't notice the time until Pran knocked on my door and asked if I wanted to go back to my dorm.

The Boss was now off to some important appointment and they don't need me for now so I'm free to go.

I decided to stay for the night hoping to see or talk with the Boss but he never came back.

I left just this morning with my car and said my goodbyes to Pran saying that if anything came up, they could always contact he and Pran did agreed.

"shit!" I cursed loudly since I remember that I haven't contacted Pha, Kit or Forth since my hurried get away from the restaurant way back Friday.

I rummage for my phone to find it. I tried turning it on but the battery had drained. Hhhmmmm that's why I haven't heard from them since then.

I plugged it and lied down in my bed. Sprawled while waiting for my phone to power back on.

20 missed calls, 50 text messages. Both from Pha and Kit. I felt a sting not seeing Forth's name on my phone. He must be really mad at me. He didn't even ask how I was.

I sent a quick chat to mine, Pha and Kits group chat saying I'm back at my dorm. Well, Mine and Kits' but whatever.

I received a *we're coming over* reply not long after. I need to do a quick lie about this.

After some time, I heard the door being unlocked. Pha and Kit was looking at me intently. They also bring foods with them. There goes my plan of buying my way out with foods...

We made a quick work with the foods that they brought. We had it in the table in no time.

"Now, I know we were supposed to be off each other's neck on Sundays but I believe this is an emergency" Pha stated when we are all seated in our dining table.

"Beam, tell us what's happening. We were worried last Friday when you just left in a hurry, we've waited for your chat but it never came. We almost called the cops on you but then Forth told us your home early Sunday morning" – Kit.

Forth knew I came home early today? How? I wonder but never got the chance to voice it out since Pha and Kit are both waiting for my explanation.

"I was called to work. You see, I already had a work as an assistant to a private doctor and it was confidential thats why I cannot say more. Please don't make me lose my job." I beg them both. I wasn't really lying per se. "I also didn't notice my phone battery died because I was busy working"

Pha and Kit let out shaky breath. I can feel the tension dissipated at least a little.

"Please don't do it again, Beam. You know we will always worry about you. You can always say to us what's happening with you" – Pha

"Yes, DAD"... I trailed. Making Kit choke a laughter and Pha eying me sharply.

We continued eating and was having small talks about what happen after I left last Friday. They just go their separate ways after my untimely departure.
