ArmMacau Side Story [White Bishop]

1 - I choose Minor Family

Refers to Chapter 59 - Fenghuang (The Phoenix) from The Way You Taste – Chess Room

Arm's POV

"I will not release you, Arm. Look what happened to Pete! It's dangerous to be on the Minor Family side."

"Because it's dangerous does it mean it's not worth fighting alongside the ones we love?"

"Arm...listen to me...you're watching too many BL series. I shouldn't have introduced that world to you. It was my fault, I admit it. (1)"

Khun Noo pats my shoulder and goes back to lying on the spa bed.

"I'm leaving, Khun Noo."

"Sure...you can go. Take a rest. Get your thoughts straight. But before, call the massage therapist back."

"No! I'm not leaving the room...I quit."

"Quit?! What do you mean you quit?!"

"I'm sorry but I quit my job as your head bodyguard, Khun Noo"

"WHAT?!...oh...Fuck!" Khun Noo falls out of bed.

Pol and I hurried to help him up.

"Are you hurt, Khun Noo?!" I ask.

"Of course I am!" He rubs his elbow... "My heart hurts after your stab!"

By the Buddha, he will start again.

At another time I might have remained patient, but not today.

"I'm sorry you feel this way, Khun Noo. But if you don't release me to stay with Macau for a while, I'm leaving. And this is my final decision."

He pouted.

And frowned.

But finally...

"Fine! But only until Pete returns! And it better happen soon! Otherwise, Pol will personally pick you up from that haunted house."

"Me?!"

"Of course! You are the only one left! Or are you leaving to live with Nop too?!"

"Nop?! God, no! Why!?! I'm staying with you, Khun Noo!"

"Congratulations, Pol! You're my head bodyguard now, as previous ones chose annoying Minor Family brothers over me."

"Thank you so much Khun Noo...Pol."

"Don't look so happy to leave me, ungrateful bastard."

"No, I'm not... I'm sorry..."

"Get out!"

Macau's POV

"Won't you eat more, Nong Macau?!"

"I'm waiting for my brother, aunt."

"Khun Vegas has already retired to his room, Nong."

"Again? But did he eat anything?"

"Very little, I'm afraid."

My brother rushes to our father's bedroom every night.

He can't sleep in his old room. That room he used to share with Phi.

Venice's room remains locked. None of us dare enter.

Because of his injury, he is not at the office all day.

As soon as he arrives, he barely eats and goes upstairs and lock himself.

I can't understand my brother's decision.
