"Mr Pruk I apologize but he wasn't in the house when we got there,''

"What?we talked just a few minutes ago where could he have gone..are you sure he isn't around?''

"Positive sir,''

"Ok then I'll be there in 5 minutes,''

Zee hang up the phone and grabbed his jacket almost sprinting towards the door.

"Woah woah woah I'm gonna have to stop you right there,''Lina said blocking his path.

When Zee raised his eyebrows questioningly at her,she cleared her throat and finished her statement."..sir,''

"Much better,''he straightened up his suit"I really need to get going Nunew is missing,''

The woman snorted almost bursting out into a fit of uncontrollable laughter.

"Miss Lina could you kindly share the humour in what I just said?''he said sternly not liking her amusement at the statement.

"Jesus..I'm sorry Mr Pruk but you do realise Nunew is a grown up right?he's allowed to leave the house..he can be at your feet 24/7 that's not how it works,''she finally said..
.smiling.

"But-''

"You've got a lot to learn sir,''

She sighed as he gave her a conflicting gaze.

"I know I'm young and gay but a relationship is a relationship,''

"It's not-we didn't talk about it yet,''

She whistled and walked to her desk.

"Now that isn't going to end well..you two can't keep this charade forever you have to talk things out like actual adults,''

"For a s-''

"And before you say anything,''she raised her finger still facing the other side,''I know I should stick to the work I'm being paid for but it's just a piece of advice take it or leave it,''

Zee opened his mouth and closed it again lacking a comeback.

"I'm leaving,''is all he could come up with.

"Still could've preferred if you had called him first!''she shouted after him but he was already marching towards the elevator.

"Maybe I should just..."he raised his phone to call Nunew but dropped it to his side immediately chuckling "why should I listen to that insufferable child..I know what I'm doing right?''

A throat was cleared behind him and he almost jumped out of his skin.

Almost.

"Jesus Christ why would you be so quiet behind there!''

"I'm sorry sir I was just checking to see if you were alright since you were talking to yourself,''the younger man said fixing his glasses.

"I have never seen you here before and I know all my employees,''

The younger man's eyes widened.

"Ohh! You're Mr Pruk? I apologise sir..I didn't know you were the CEO I really am reckless I should ha-''

"Hey.. relax..you're going to do great Sam,''Zee replied reading his name from his name tag"I have somewhere to rush to ok? my secretary will be your intervieer..just to give you a tip.. be straightforward she doesn't like beating around the bush,''he said and patted the boys shoulder before checking his watch and running off.
