“Please God , not now ” Beam became restless because of his irregular breath. He tried to control his little episode of panic attack. His tear stained cheeks became red due to continuous wiping.

After some struggle Beam finally able to stand with the support of the wall and went outside of the building. The night was a cold one.  Beam's thin sweater was not much help.

By the thought of someone following him, Beam's tear started flowing again .

Terrified Beam reached his home after a very long walk. He curled up against the wall to protect himself from this lonely dark night and let the darkness took care of him.

Next morning when Beam open his eyes it was already a sunny day. Beam decided to find another job. Because he knew that after yesterday's incident there was no way the company would allow him to work there .

Beam started his job hunting but couldn't get a job. In the middle of his job hunting, his phone started ringing . “Where the hell are you? ” someone shouted on the other side of the line. “If
You don't reach here within 1 hour, you will be fired ” before Beam could answer the man on the other side growled again. “Manager Garry? ” Beam was beyond shocked. “I'm not fired ”Beam muttered to himself. Beam was confused, why he was not fired. But decided to go to his workplace. Because he desperately needed a job.

When he reached at his workplace manager Garry just scolded him for getting late and ordered Beam to do his work. Everybody in the workplace behaved like nothing happened yesterday. Everything was normal. Even manager Garry didn't mention about yesterday. It confused Beam but he decided to ignore it.

The day went normally without anything happening.

The following weeks were totally normal . People just ignored Beam just like they used to do. Beam finally could take a breath of relief after months.

In a regular day Beam was working in the warehouse of the company. Suddenly some heavy boxes slipped from its placed but before the fallen boxes hit Beam someone shielded him from getting hurt. Instantly Beam found himself in someone's warm embrace.

“Shit” the person cursed when the boxes hit his backside and shoulders. When Beam open his eyes he was too shocked to even breath. Beam found himself in the embrace of CEO Forth Jaturapoom. Who was now blankly staring at Beam's face. Beam's face flashed with an adorable blush under the instance staring of the CEO. The CEO slowly let go of Beam and straighten his expensive suit.

“Are you okay sir? ”the bodyguard ran to there place and started checking the CEO. CEO just nodded his head as a reply and went out of the warehouse without giving a second glance at Beam. The bodyguard glared at Beam before leaving the place.

Beam was too surprise to say thank you to the CEO. Beam scolded himself for his stupidity.  Beam was determined to thank the CEO. Even in his wildest dream  Beam didn't dare to dream about saving his pathetic self by the CEO. It had been very long time that someone actually helped Beam and because of that Beam felt a cosy feeling in his heart.

When Beam reached the top floor the CEO's secretary informed Beam that the CEO was busy. Beam determined to come next time and ready to leave the place, in that time the scary looking bodyguard of the CEO told Beam to go inside. Before stepping inside the office Beam took a long breath but When Beam went inside the office  his heart started to beat soo violently that he could hear his own heartbeat. The sight that welcomed Beam,   stopped his heartbeat for a second . Before him was a shirtless CEO, sitting in the luxurious long couch and silently observing Beam's face.

The CEO's hair was messy and his suit and shirt were tossed aside on the couch. The CEO's body was build like some Greek God . His packs were  complementing his strong physique. And his veiny strong hands was holding a medicine tube.. Wait a medicine tube? Then finally Beam noticed that the CEO was applying medicine. A medicine kit was placed on the table.

“Done starring ” the CEO broke the awkward silence.

“ye.. Yes  ..I...I mean..No.. I.. ”Beam mentally facepalmed himself for embarrassing again before the big boss.

The CEO just sighed and started to do his previous work. The CEO didn't try to converse again.

Beam felt guilty because he knew that CEO was hurt because of him.

“Thank you Sir” Beam finally managed to utter his thought. Again the CEO didn't answer Beam.

“Ca..can..I..I help you.. Si.. Sir? ”Beam offered his helped when CEO was struggling with cleaning the bruises because the bruises were on his back. His hands couldn't reach the wounded place properly.

The CEO didn't say anything and turned his back towards Beam. Beam took this gesture as a yes and started to cleaning the bruises gently. After cleaning the bruises  Beam applied some medicine and bandaged them properly. Because of the close proximity to the CEO and his shirtless back , Beam's face covered with pink dust which even reached  his ears and neck.

When Beam finished he didn't dare to break the silence but the silence was not awkward. It was a peaceful one.

“If you want to thank me then why don't you clean my office regularly ”. Beam was not allowed to clean this part of the company.“But remember to do it in my presence only ” before Beam could answer , the CEO clarified his statement and didn't leave any points for argument. It was a clear order from the big boss not a request.

Then the CEO grab his shirt and went to the join room leaving a bewildered Beam there.
