STRAWBERRY | Forthbeam

Chapter 16

Lam POV

After settling things with Forth, me and Park went to apartment where Park lives. The reason I didn't sleep at his place he is messy. And he can't cook. After today's incidence I am never letting him enter the kitchen.

He is guilty about what happened to Forth's place. But I don't blame him. He was absent minded today. I couldn't sleep well last night so he takes care of me all night. Forth was sleeping alone so he got a good night sleep. My fever went down because Park stayed all night. I didn't want to go to the hospital. So he takes care of me every time I get sick. It is rare for me to get sick. But when I do it gets very bad. Forth will force me to go to the hospital or send me home. But Park he never complains. He just does everything I want like usual. He never complains.

That is also the reason I like Park. No scratch that I love him. Yes this cold heart man is in love with a man child. I can't help it. I don't know when it started but I fell so hard for him. But I am never going to tell him. First he is straight and second he is a player. He never had a serious relationship. He never takes anyone to his heart. So it is better that I don't confess.

Park POV

After reaching my dorm I went to the nearby food stall to get dinner for Lam and me.

My mind is running like a roller coaster. Today I destroyed Forth's dorm room. Then we went Lam's cousin. I am guilty about burning down the room. And I am happy that Lam found him a place to stay. But I don't like P'Mew. It is not that I think he is a bad person. It is just that the way he acted towards Lam. Calling him baby like that. And Lam what with all the hugging. The only person he ever hugs is me that too only when he is sick.

When I reached my place Lam was cleaning my place.

"Lam you are sick, take rest"

"it is ok I am fine now. I cant see all this mess and do nothing"

"Lam take rest. Don't make me force you". I said in a warning tone.

"Park I told you I am fine now" And continued to clean.

I went near him and throw him on my shoulder and carried him to my bed room. I pushed him onto my bed. But he tried to get up. So I pushed him again on the bed and sat on top of him.

"I said take rest". I said while looking sharply into his eyes. His face was so close to mine. I have never seen him this close to me. He avoided my eyes I can see his face is getting red. Wait is he blushing?.

He is really handsome and his lips are inviting. Suddenly I wanted to taste his lips. While looking at him my heart skips a beat. Oh god what is this. I got up quickly and give him the food.

"You eat it first". Then I started cleaning the mess in my room. We didn't say anything after that.

Forth POV

It is been few days since I have been staying at P'mew's place. So far I don't have any issues the dorm room maintenance will take more time than I expected. I packed my bag and hoped on my bike. Today I am trying new route. The route I always take was always cause too much traffic problems. Yesterday p'mew told me about a route which is not filled with traffic. On my way to the college I saw some kids are trying to climb up to a fence at a home. I stopped my bike there.

"What are you guys doing?". I asked one kid.

"We are trying to get the strawberry that is on the fence". Now I heard about the strawberry I took a look at the fence clearly. It does have some strawberries hanging on. Most part is growing inside but we can get a handful from outside. But it is too difficult to grab by hands. I am taller than the kids but my hands couldn't reach it. It looks delicious. I want to have a bite too.

"Why don't you ask the owner for it?"

"No we can't, he will scold us. Or tell our parents about it"

"Well we only need few. He won't be that cruel"

"You don't know him. He won't give it us. He will chase us away. He is scary".

"who lives here?"

"One scary person. He lives alone"

Lives alone here?. The house is big enough for at least four people. It has a beautiful garden at the front. There is a car parked I can't see which car is it because it is covered. I think the owner is still inside.

"Phi, Can you use this stick to get it. We couldn't reach it with this stick. Please Phi". A kid begged me with his puppy eyes. I couldn't resist it.

"Ok. I will". I grabbed the stick and started to grab the strawberries. But it is very difficult to get them from the plant. I started beating the plant because I was getting frustrated of not getting like the way I expected it. Because of my force 2 pots near the fence fell down and broke.

Suddenly we heard a yelling.

"What is going on in there?"

"Shit. Run guys or we will get caught". The kids said and started running. I don't want to cause any problems so I get on my bike and started it. Curious about whom was the owner I turned around and looked back. The person I found caused my eyes to turn into big saucers. The person was beyond furious. I ride my bike fast. I think saying sorry won't cut it this time.
