Vanilla Boy

Chapter 11

"This ...."

"My house. Oops, sorry, I mean, this is my parents' house. I will buy my own house later after work. Our house," Forth replied with a smile with loving eyes on Beam.

Beam blushed and he looked down to avoid Forth's gaze in embarrassment. Forth has always been open and candid about what he feels and thinks. In contrast to himself who often hides his feelings.

Forth made Beam feel like he was in a new world that was very different from his current world.

His life has been comfortable because Trina Intochar--his adoptive mother loves Beam very much and bestows everything she has on Beam, but sometimes Beam feels lonely and scared even with Phana and Kit always accompanying him.

Forth, made Beam feel like a new person. "Forth, why did you take me to here?" asked Beam confused.

He got off the motorbike and stood behind Forth. The drive from the hostel to Forth's house was only two hours because Forth was very good at running his motorbike and Beam clung to Forth's warm back. "I want to introduce you to my family."

"But why?"

"Because you're my boyfriend?"

Beam scared. He gripped the hem of Forth's jacket tightly and his face was pale. "It was... just last night and I was scared. Your parents probably won't agree, because I'm... a boy?"

Forth laughed and pulled Beam's hand. He hugged Beam with both hands and brought their foreheads together. "Don't measure love by time, Baby. We only became boyfriends last night, but it's forever and I'll start planning my future with you, so you can't regret it and back off now. You'll be tied to me for the rest of our lives."

Beam didn't understand why he blushed so easily in front of Forth. "But we're men...."

"My second brother is married to a lawyer, his name is Brandon Gail. He's American."

Beam's eyes widened. Forth laughed and kissed the tip of his nose. He pulled Beam's hand gently. "Come on."

Forth gripped Beam's hand tightly. He could tell that Beam felt trepidation, from his sweaty hands. Beam has always been cheerful, seductive, and bold, but this time he was different.

"Mom, I'm home," Forth called at the entrance.

Beam squeezed Forth's hand. "You are a prince?" whispered Beam. "Why is your house so majestic and luxurious?"

Forth chuckled and led Beam inside. A middle-aged, plump woman with smooth skin and wearing a floral apron came out of the large doorway to the right of Forth and Beam.

"Baby Wolfie," the woman called out as she spread her arms toward Forth. Her wide, warm smile was very much like Forth's. Beam smiled at the woman's call to Forth.

Forth took the woman into his arms and kissed her forehead. "Mom, you smell so good."

Leah Jamorhnoom kissed Forth on the cheek, then she realized someone was behind Forth. she pushed Forth aside and approached Beam. "Well, hello, who are you?"

Beam formed a wai and bowed to Leah. "Good afternoon, Auntie. My name is Beam Baramee. I'm a friend...."

"He's my boyfriend, Mom," Forth cut in with a proud smile. He stood beside Beam and put his arm around his shoulder.

Leah widened her eyes and looked back and forth at Forth and Beam. Beam's face flushed and he tried to escape from Forth's embrace.

Leah pulled Beam's hand away from Forth and embraced him. "Is it true?"

Beam bit his lower lip in embarrassment and looked at Forth.

Leah reached out and smacked Forth on the shoulder. "Bad boy! I told you not to get into trouble. Why did you bring such a beautiful child here? You must have threatened him so he would follow you, right? So that you could avoid an arranged marriage with your grandmother's choice?"

Forth's brows furrowed. "Mom, this Beam is really my boyfriend."

A tall, big man came out from the inside of the house. Leah walked over to Gary Jamorhnoom--her husband, taking Beam with her. "Honey, our little wolf kidnapped this beautiful child to pretend to be his boyfriend so he wouldn't be betrothed to his grandmother's choice."

Gary looked at Forth and Beam in turn. "What's your name, son? Was Forth being rude to you?" Gary asked Beam.

Forth stomped his feet on the floor in annoyance. "Daad, that Beam really is my boyfriend. I brought him for...."

“Ssh… shut up, Wolfie,” Leah snapped, glancing at Forth. "Let Beam do the talking."

Beam smiled and looked at Forth who was frowning. He reached out and grabbed Forth's hand. "Sir and Aunt, I am indeed Forth's boyfriend and I love your child."

Leah and Gary were stunned. Leah squeezed Beam's hand. "Are you sure you love Forthie? You look so tiny and delicate. Aren't you afraid of him?"

"No," Beam shook his head firmly. "I love him. Forth is very kind, gentle, and funny. He makes me feel comfortable and happy."

Leah looked at Beam with watery eyes. He hugged Beam and squeezed his shoulder gently. "Oh my God, why are you so cute." Leah turned to her husband. "We don't have to look for anyone else. Beam is more than enough to make Mother cancel her plans. Beam is even prettier than that girl."

Gary nodded and walked over to Forth. He hugged Forth and shook Beam's hand. "We need to talk. Your grandma will be here in a minute."

Forth took Beam and followed Gary and Leah into the dining room. Beam looked around him in admiration.

The kitchen in question is a spacious room that opens directly to the garden with a large swimming pool and gazeebo on the outside.

The modern kitchen, which is dominated by elegant black and gold colors, blends with the dining room with a long table and many chairs on the right and left sides. After the dining table is a large, long set of sofas in front of a large, long set of sofas in front of a large, thick rug that spreads in front of a beautiful stone fireplace and a large television above it.

Leah and Gary sat in front of Forth and Beam holding hands under the dining table. "So, Beam, tell me about yourself," Gary said quietly.

Beam gulped. "My name is Beam Baramee, sir. I am a third year medical student, just like Forth. I was an orphan since childhood and a kind woman adopted me until now. She is a doctor, Trina Intochar is her name."

Leah gasped. He took Gary's hand and looked at Beam. "Trina, you say? Trina Parashad Intochar? Doctor Jov Intochar's sister?"

Beam nodded. "Yes. She is my mother now."

"Oh my God," Leah exclaimed as she stood up and walked over to Beam. He hugged Beam tightly. "You are the miracle Forth brought me."

Forth and Beam looked at each other confused.
