Eyes on me

002

Porchay got off the limousine, and a gigantic mansion stood in his view. The gates were 9 feet tall, guarding the white palace that resided magnificently behind it and surrounding it was the garden that housed lush green trees and perfectly trimmed bushes of various designs.

"All memorized?" Kim asked, and Porchay nodded. The boy had spent sleepless nights trying to remember all the information that was in the files like he was told.

Kim led Porchay into the house, with Big following behind. It took them almost 5 minutes to reach the main entrance, pass the huge garden and pond. If not for Kim and Big, Porchay was sure he would have gotten lost in this enormous place.

Now that they entered the main house, Porchay couldn't help but feel nervous as many eyes watched him closely. Everyone was dressed to the nines, and Porchay definitely was out of place given that he was dressed simply in a white t-shirt with a checkered flannel over it and a pair of dark blue jeans, coupled with the best sneakers he could find.

Porchay gulped. To be fair, Big didn't tell him what the dress code was, he just said to look presentable which Porchay believes he does. Kinda.

Kim, on the other hand, was dressed in an expensive looking maroon leather jacket and a simple black t-shirt under it, along with a pair of matching leather pants and black polished shoes. Everything about him screams 'classy', Porchay thinks to himself, as he trailed behind the brunette closely.

"Young master." The middle aged lady in glasses greeted Kim respectfully before leading him into the main living hall where the rest of the family was.

By the time the pair had arrived, seated at the main hall was a middle aged man Porchay supposes it was Kim's father, and another young woman in her 20s who was sitting right across from him. She was absolutely gorgeous, and like the rest of the family, her poise revealed her elegance and status.

"Ah, Kim." Mr Korn said, but the brunette did not respond. He merely took his seat opposite the young woman and gestured for Porchay to do the same.

Nevertheless, Mr Korn continued talking. "Your brothers will arrive shortly. In the meantime, would you care to introduce...your friend over here?" Mr Korn's stern gaze fell on Porchay, and the boy couldn't help but fidget under his stare.

"This is my boyfriend, Porchay." Porchay tried to suppress the cough that was rising up his throat as Kim answered his father. His ears had turned bright red.

"H-hello, sir." Porchay greeted Kim's father anxiously as he anticipated his response. But,  

Mr Korn didn't seem at all surprised, and he did not comment further. He only smiled politely in return, and then his attention was directed back at Kim.

"I was not expecting another guest." Mr Korn said, his legs crossed and hands clasped in front as he rested his arms on the armchair. "Sorry for my son's impoliteness, Ms Aom." Mr Korn then shifted his gaze to the young woman Porchay now learns the name of.

"Not at all." Aom responded with a curt smile but anyone could tell she was not happy about Porchay being here.

"Guess this meeting with Ms Aom isn't necessary then." Porchay heard Kim speak nonchalantly.

Then the young master looked at the woman, unapologetically. "I'm sorry Ms Aom. I've wasted your time."

Porchay noticed a muscle in the lady's jaw twitch, she scowled at Kim but when she realized he was unperturbed, she glared at Mr Korn demanding for an explanation. But Mr Korn only chuckled as he shrugged in response...not exactly what Porchay was expecting. From what Big told him, Mr Korn intended to set Kim up with someone. Yet now, he didn't appear the least offended when Kim had brought his 'boyfriend' over.
