First Meeting.
This was what Evelyn has always wanted. Attending the fan meeting of her most favorite BL pairs of Thailand. She loved everything about the country, although it had its ups and downs. Which country doesn't have that?.
But she was lost. She didn't know anyone there. She had just arrived at Bangkok international airport and the fan meeting was in 2hours. There was no way she was gonna make it on time. She was starting to get anxious and a little bit regretful for coming without thinking on how she was even gonna get to the fan meeting.
She trudged through the little crowd going for the restroom, which she found with no stress. Evelyn stood by the large mirror with her hands under the tap washing them when she heard a muffle. Followed by mumbled of someone talking in Thai to someone on the phone. She could tell it was a girl. She didn't understand what the person was saying but from her little knowledge of Thai language, she knew that person was complaining about something. She decided to wait.
After waiting for 2 minutes. The girl came out with puffed red eyes. She was almost Evelyn's height. 5 foot tall and very pretty eyes with brown hair. She darted her eyes to the floor immediately she saw Evelyn mumbling a little sawahdi ka beneath her breath.
She walked to the mirror pouring water on her face. Evelyn decided to start a conversation.
" Sewahdi ka," she tried. But got no reply.
She decided to say something different.
" Uhmm hello. How are you? I'm Evelyn and you are?"
The girl jerked her head up looking at her skeptically like a child watching a stranger.
" I'm Mo. You're not from Thailand?"
"No . No I'm not, I just came in today but I don't really know the routes to where I wanna go and I'm too nervous to ask anyone." She stopped, putting her hands on her mouth. "I'm so sorry if I'm talking too much, I only speak Thai a little" She exclaimed.Mo smiled, getting to the hand dryer.
" It's okay, I can speak English."
" OMG. Really?"
" Yep"
Evelyn was very happy about this. Mo's accent was spectacular. Her pronunciations were explicit. She deserved a compliment. Evelyn thought to herself.
" I love your accent Mo."
" You do? I love languages so I spend a lot of time learning them."
" Woah, that's so cool. I just started learning Thai and my progress is slow but I'm getting the hang of it. " She laughed. "What languages can you speak now?"" I speak Thai, English, Chinese, Swedish and a little bit of Spanish. Still going for more."
" Oh my, you have to teach me." Evelyn exclaimed. Grinning ear to ear.
" So what brought you to Thai?"
" I actually came for a fan meeting!"
" Woah. Which fan meeting?"
" The one for first and khaotung!!"
" OMG. You're a fan too?"
" Yes. Wait. Are you?"
" Of course. What are you doing here then? You're gonna be late. I was on my way there after seeing off my mom. But…" Mo stopped. Evelyn knew this could be the reason she was crying.
" It's okay if you don't wanna talk about it." Evelyn suggested.
" No. I'm fine. It's my boyfriend. He broke up with me over the phone."
Evelyn cursed in Thai.
" Oh the nerve of him!!"
Mo laughed.
" I'm okay. In Fact what do you say about going to the fan meeting together."
Evelyn shrieked.
" Yes. Yes. Yes. You seriously wanna go with me mo?"
" Come on, you just saved my mind from overthinking and I have to thank you. I planned on missing the fan meet." Mo stated.
" Thank the Lord I came through and I'll be thanking you too. Now I have not just a direction but also someone to go with. Awesome."
" Let's get going before we get too late to even see their faces."
They both raced to the fan meet. Got to take a picture with first and khaotung, everything was just the way Evelyn imagined it.
After having a lot of fun. The night came and Mo had to go home.
" So where are you going to sleep? " Mo asked.
" Don't worry,this one I already took care of." She said laughing." Okay. It was so nice meeting you Evelyn."
" Same here Mo!"
Mo's ride arrived and she got in.
Saying see you in Thailand, which Evelyn understood and replied the same.
After a few minutes of Mo's departure. Evelyn figured out that she didn't get Mo's contact nor Line ID or even her home address.
Now she wasn't sure she was ever gonna meet Mo again.
