Chapter 44: I lost on my own revenge

Flashback ...

"Zee !!!"

Zee then turned as soon as he heard his name called. He turned towards the stairs next to the kitchen. He could see Nunew's father looking at his face at that time. Without wasting time, Zee got up and ran towards him.
Zee: Yes, sir ?
Pa: Can we have a talk ?
Zee: yeah, sure sir.
Pa: I will waiting for you at my reading room.
Zee: Krub.

Without waiting any longer, Nunew's father went upstairs while Zee was still on the stairs. He looked at Madame Fah's face.
Zee: Let's talk again later.
Madame Fah: Okay, my son.

Without wasting time, Zee ran upstairs. He then walked towards Nunew's father's reading room. He knocked on the door before entering. As soon as he heard Nunew's father's voice allowing him in, Zee pushed the door slowly and stepped inside.

"Have a sit, Zee."

Zee then walked towards a sofa in the middle of the room. He sat in front of Nunew's father who was reading the newspaper. As soon as he saw Zee in front, Zee's father then put the newspaper on the table. He looked at Zee's face as he leaned on the sofa.
Pa: You knew what happened lately, right ?
Zee: What is it, sir ?
Pa: Nunew's condition is getting more and more dangerous. Lately, many people are trying to attacks him to harm him. That worries me a lot.
Zee: I can see that too, sir.
Pa: I want him to get married as soon as possible.
Zee: What do you mean, sir ?
Pa: I want someone to take care of him as their own life.
Zee: I'm doing it right now.
Pa: I know but somehow you have other priorities too, right ? You have to take care of your younger sister.
Zee: Are you worried if I can't take care of both at the same time?
Pa: No ... it's not like that, Zee. Actually, I have other things on my mind.
Zee: What is it ?
Pa: I want Nunew to get married because I want someone to take care of him and love him as much as they can. You knew that me and his mother rarely at home because we are too busy with our business. We can see that Nunew need some love that we can't give him.
Zee: So, you are searching for someone who can give him the love that you can't gave him ?
Pa: Yes, Zee. Take care of him and love him.
Zee: So, what do you want me to do right now ?
Pa: You know Nunew met a lot of men at the Pentagon, right?
Zee: Then ?

Nunew's Pa looked into Zee's eyes and said, "Call them and let me meet them."

At Pentagon ...

Bboun stepped into the Pentagon as his eyes searched for where Zee was sitting. at that time many people came to the Pentagon so that it was difficult for Bboun to walk past them all. After almost 5 minutes of searching, Bboun finally saw Zee. Without wasting time, he then walked over to Zee who was sitting at the end. He then patted Zee's right shoulder.
Bboun: Hey, bro.
Zee: Hey, Bboun.
Bboun: What happened ? Why do you want to meet me ? Seems urgent.

Zee sighed while drinking his beer. He looked at Bboun.
Zee: I met Nunew's father at home earlier. He said he wants Nunew to get married as soon as possible.
Bboun: What ? Get married ? With whom ?
Zee: I don't know but he want me to call every guy that Nunew have met here before.
Bboun: Do you mean the man who has only been Nunew's game all this time?
Zee: Yes.
Bboun: What the hell is going on ? You knew Nunew is not serious at all. He just never serious with them and now his father want him to get married with one of them ? Oh, so silly.
Zee: ....

Bboun who saw Zee just keeping quiet started to wonder. The Zee in front of him looked completely different.
Bboun: Hey, are you listening ?
Zee: What ?
Bboun: Your mind are not here, Zee. What are you thinking about ?
