CHAPTER 4: BREAKING THE ICE

-------CHE--------

It was the middle of the night when I woke up from slumber. All day, I stayed inside the room and cleaned, played games on my phone then went out for lunch when Phi Pete knocked on my door. I did everything I could to get my head out of the current situation, but I just can't. The growing anxiety from my brother's disappearance is starting to root inside my chest and weakening my resolve.

My appetite has drastically declined. From a four cup of rice per meal before, I now get full at a cup of potato and omelet. Seeing all the food in the pantry could make my mouth salivate if I wasn't in turmoil right now, but just looking at a plate of food now makes my stomach churn upside down for no reason. My head is constantly dizzy and the throbbing pain never leaves my temple.

Phi Pete has given me some pain reliever after lunch, so I fell fast asleep an hour later making me miss dinner.

And now, just past midnight, I woke up from my rumbling guts. I'm freaking hungry!

I scratched the sleep from my eyes and slowly opened the door of the room. Peeking from the opening, I saw that there were two men stationed just outside the door. They weren't there earlier. Am I being watched now?

I need to find Phi Pete.

Getting back inside, I looked for my brother's phone and dialed Phi Pete's number which he didn't answer. So, I started to look around the room, hoping that Phi had something stashed in here. But this must be one of my unlucky days, I knew that Phi never stacked food in his room, silly me to hope for something impossible. Aside from a few pieces of those weird looking chocolates on his drawer, there's nothing here to eat.

Why do I have to be hungry at this hour?

Son of a gun, I need some chow!

I sat on the edge of the bed, decided to just ignore my growling stomach, and sleep it off. But this monster residing in my intestines wouldn't let it slide this time. I need to eat!

Before I could even think deeply about it, my feet moved on their own towards the door and opened it wide. The two men looked at me in surprise at the same time that had me swallowing down my saliva.

They look scary!

"Where are you going?"

One of them asked and assessed me from head to toe. His scrutinizing gaze feels degrading somehow and I could read a 'Is this Porsche's brother? Looks shabby' words written on his face.

"I ugh... Can I get something to eat, sir?"

Stuttering in slight trepidation and hunger, I bit my lips. Silently praying that they allow me to strut my way to the pantry or even the kitchen. Phi Pete told me that the kitchen here is open twenty-four-seven.

"Are you Porsche's little brother?"

The other man couldn't hold his curiosity anymore and asked smirking. I could see the silent mocking in his eyes that didn't sit well with me.

"Yes, I am. What about it? Are you close with my brother?"

I eyed them suspiciously. They might be someone who bullies my brother while at work, or worse, they might be an accomplice to the kidnapping! It could be an inside job!

"No, we are not close. He's Khun Kinn's guard while we are Khun Kim's, who ordered us to keep watch here."

Oh.
