— Chapter 2 —
Time passed until dusk. Amid the darkness, there was still a light coming from the temporary elephant hospital pavilion of the Chodchasi Forest Ranger Unit.
On the elephant's back, Dr. Chol is deftly changing the saline bottle for it. His expression was satisfied with the work that he was able to heal the elephant until it got better in a short period of time.
Doctor Chol throws down an old saline bottle that's already empty to Rung. Before reaching and rubbing the elephant's body in comfort"You good now, Puhm. You're going to be okay."
"Doctor, are you going to leave now?
Because when I finish packing, I'll drop you
off."The young assistant asked as he packed
his stuff."Don't have to, Rung. After finishing
packing, you can go back to rest. I remember the way back there, and Kwan already gave me the key, so don't worry."
"You sure?"The young man looking upward, hesitantly asked the person on the elephant's back. Doctor Chol smiled back with a confident expression as well.
"Yes, I'm sure. You don't have to wait for me. I had written the prescription for you, it's on the table. Tomorrow, I'd like you to give the medicine to Puhm on time too."
"Yes doctor, then I'll go first. If you want to get off of the elephant's back, call the mahout, his name is Ming, he probably walking around and smoke a cigarette."Doctor Chol nodded and smiled. After Rung finished packing the stuff, he then push the cart, walking out of there. The man on the elephant spent some time enjoying with the elephant before he started looking for Uncle Ming but couldn't see him.
"Uncle Ming, are you around here? Uncle Ming?"
The young vet called for Uncle Ming, but there was no response. He looked outside in the pitch darkness and saw no one around. So he thought that the mahout might go to the bathroom. So he hesitated for a moment. Before looking downward, he saw a wooden chair that he used climbed up placed in the elephant's front legs.
Doctor Chol finally decided to turn his back and slide down, place his feet on the wooden chair, successfully.
At that moment, Puhm slowly shifted. Its front leg hit the small chair that Doctor Chol was stepping on until he fell over. Doctor Chol, who was unexpected that this would happen flipped from the chair."Hey!!!"
The young vet thought he was going to be in serious pain, he grits his teeth, preparing for the impinge. But then, the impinge that he could feel was not the hard ground beneath him, but rather the strong bosom of someone who had carried him in time.
The strong arm of the person firmly held onto the young vet's waist. Plus, the strong chest attached to his back right now, is a very good shield. The touch made the doctor still for a moment. After regaining consciousness, he hurriedly jumped out of those arms and immediately turned his head to look at the person.
And that made Doctor Chol stunned, momentarily. When he saw the handsome face of the tall man in front of him who was looking at him with a still expression which was hard to guess what's on his mind. The more he looked at the man, the more he felt surprisingly familiar with him."Uh, thank you."
"It is dangerous to be alone with an elephant, don't you know?"
"Yes, I was improvident."
"Be careful next time."The young veterinarian's face was a
little pale as the person's words in front of him seemed to be blaming him."You must be the new vet?"
"Yes, my name is Cholatharn, you can call me Chol, and you?..."
"My name is Sinth. The chief of this forest ranger. If you need anything, you can send someone to tell me."
"Yes, Chief Sinth."Doctor Chol smiled and bowed his head slightly to show respect for the elders.
Suddenly, the young veterinarian's eyes fixed on the name tag, on the right chest of
