Khao's pov:

I was aware I am going to meet First today so I planned to be calm and to stay away from him. I don't want to draw unnecessary attention and piss View off. However, it is so much difficult than I imagined. He looks so damn good in his office attire.

When he arrived, he immediately saw me. I could feel his gaze over me. I couldn't help but check him out. His nice suit, watch and polished boots added to his look. I kept looking at his posture totally mesmerized until my eyes met his. A smirk on his face as if he knows how much I kept thinking about him over the week.

He tried to talk to me but I successfully avoided him until now.

I am with him in a closed storage room as he shoves a cellphone in my hand. I don't want to take it. How can I accept any gift from him? That too, such an expensive one? What are we to each other? I push his hands denying over and over again. I don't know what he is thinking or what he is up to but it sounds like a trouble. I had my experience with letting rich man help me once. I naively trusted him only to get hurt, creating more problems and increasing my debt. He off course went to his own life like nothing happened. First will do same. He belongs to same category of people after all.

"we don't have much time Khao...just accept it....If people find us together for so long in this room, They will ask questions and give me headache... you know them by now right?" First speaks making me worry even more. I keep looking at him and the phone he is giving to me.

"If anyone asks just blame it on me." He says again as he comes dangerously close to me. My back touches the wall. Now I can't move back further. I need to get out of here. My heart is racing as I can smell him. "Ok" I whisper as I take a hold of the phone and shove it into my pocket.

Why does he even have an extra phone lying around in his pocket like that anyway? He was clearly surprised to see me. Rich men things I guess. I quickly try to make my way to the door but he places his hand over the wall blocking my way. I look at him again as he towers over me. Suddenly his index finger from other hand lands on my lower lip. I jump in sudden touch. "Hey what are you doing?" My hands barely holding the bags of spoons as they now become jelly because of him.

"What happened here?" His eyes staring at my lips. "What do you mean?" He taps over middle part of lower lip and feel little pain. "I get it often in this weather. Nothing serious" I say in low voice. "Oh. I thought someone kissed you there" He says casually removing his finger and my cheeks are definitely pink now. "No. Nothing like that!" I reply immediately denying the assumptions and he chuckles as he takes out chapstick out of his pocket.

He puts it on his own lips and press them gently into a thin line. "I like this one. It keeps them soft you know" He says as he puts the same chapstick in my back-pocket. "Use it well. It's now yours"

He gets away from me and I look at him dumbfounded. "I guess I will talk to you later then" He says staring at my lip one last time before chuckling and leaving the room. What was this about? I take the chapstick out and open it. The smell is so good. Should I use it? I guess no problem in taking care of my wounded lip right? Especially if people are gonna assume that it's because of theintense kissing! I put the chapstick on my lips rolling it evenly while feeling grateful for him helping me. But then a thought comes into my mind. That's the chapstick that had just touched First's lips!!!!!!! And then it touched mine?!???????? I feel hot thinking about it. I quickly put it back brushing off all my improper thoughts. I get out of the room quickly.

Rest of the event, First didn't try to contact me in anyway. He looked chill entire time. Me on the other hand, feeling anxious as I keep getting sensation of the phone in my pocket. At the end, everyone bid goodbyes as Phuwin mentions the next plan. When View is busy clinging to First, Bright comes and pulls me in the corner. "This is for you!" He shoves a small bag in my hand. "What is it?"
"First asked me to give you. It's the accessories for your phone"
A pink tint forms on my cheek by now I am sure. I am so embarrassed as well as blushing like an idiot. Well I thought nobody would know about the phone. I take it fast before View can see us and put it inside one of the bags that I'm carrying for View.
