Ko felt suffocated sitting in the backseat of the black Bentley parked not far from the party location. He was starting to regret having agreed to go there with the two Wongsrisai brothers.

Looking outside the window, he could clearly see Sak and Jui getting out of the car in front of the villa along with his elder brother and brother-in-law. Sak and Jui were stuck to each other's side.

Seeing this scene the two Wongsrisai brothers were emitting murderous auras.

He could somewhat guess why the youngest Wongsrisai was being so worked up about the situation. Given the latter's 'history' with Sak and the level of possessiveness and dominative traits that ran down the Wongsrisai bloodline, it was a reasonable reaction. 

What he couldn't comprehend was, why eldest Wongsrisai looked like he wanted butcher someone live. 

Ko had always been a tad bit more scared of Saifah than others. The older could really kill just by being next to him.

"Ko, call Lom and tell him to ask Nai if we could join the party as well," Saifah said in an emotionless voice as he kept staring at the entrance of the villa even though the party of four had already gone inside.

"Khrab," Ko didn't dare miss a beat and pulled out his phone to make the call. He could literally hear his heart pounding hard as he dialed Sailom's number.

He felt like the god had heard his prayers when he finally heard from Sailom that they could go in. If by any chance Sailom had said that they couldn't, he would have had to face the wrath of the two Wongsrisai brothers by himself. He jus.t hoped that rest of the night goes peacefully.

"When did you get that?" He stared at the huge bouquet and a duckling stuffed toy in Sailub's hand.

"I brought it with me," Sailub shrugged and strode forward.

Ko had no option but to follow the two brothers.

As they reached the villa, Sailom was waiting for them. "Didn't think that you three would reach here so quickly." He said sarcastically.

Saifah just ignored his comment and walked into the villa as if he owned the place. Sailom cursed in his heart and joined his twin.

"P' Jui!" Ko ran up to Jui as soon as he saw him. He didn't want to stay beside the monsters anymore.

"Ko, my darling!" Jui was pleasantly surprised to see Ko at the party and welcomed him with a warm hug.

"You guys know each other?" Nai asked as he spotted his brother-in-law hugging his best friend. Though he was in a bad mood, he didn't want to ruin his little brother's party because of it. Hence, he was putting on his best temper for the time being.

"Khrab, Hia. I have been to P' Jui's boutique a few times before," Ko replied cheerfully.

"Hia? How do you know him?" Jui looked alternatively between Ko and Nai.

"He is my Nong," Zo joined the conversation, wrapping his hand around Nai's waist.

Nai was pissed about the action but didn't react as he didn't want to cause a scene.

Zo and Jui acted oblivious to Nai's anger and concentrated on their conversation with Ko. 

Nai's gaze fell on the guy who was giving flowers to his younger brother and strode over. Seeing Nai leaving such a hurry, the trio followed him.

"Welcome back na," Sailub smiled at Sak.

Sak stared at the flowers and the duckling plushie that were being offered to him and accepted it quietly.  He didn't know how to react. Seeing Sailub appear in front of him like this was the last thing he expected to happen on the day he returned to Thailand.

Most of the people gathered there, including his parents and elder brother didn't know what had happened in the past between him and Sailub. There were only three people who knew the whole story. One was him, other was Sailub and Jui, to whom he had said everything.

There was no way Jui would invite Sailub to his party, then it had to be either his brother or Aum who invited him.

"How have you been?" Sailub noticed Sak zoning out a bit.

"Not bad," Sak's voice didn't have any sign of joy or excitement.

Sensing the atmosphere turn heavy, Sailom quickly interjected. "Let me introduce him to everybody. This is my Nong Chaai, Sailub. He was Sak's senior in university."

Sailub waied to everyone around him. Sailom's introduction had dispelled half of the speculations within the room.

"And this is my twin, Saifah." He didn't forget to add his elder twin as well.

Nai's focus was on Sak and Sailub. He could see that Sak was visibly uncomfortable with Sailub's presence. He could sense something was wrong. 

He was suspicious of their relationship and wondered if Sak and Sailub were seeing each other. Or else, what kind of senior would bring flowers and toys to a junior guy?

Aum on the other hand had his attention on Jui. Jui was not being Jui at all. He was oddly silent ever since he saw Saifah and Sailub in the party. 

His face turned even gloomier when Sailom introduced the two as his siblings. It was as if his personality had taken a one eighty-degree turn. Given the way he had always treated Sailom, he should be equally enthusiastic towards Sailom's brothers as well, but he didn't even bother to wai at the two. 

Aum felt that something was out of place but couldn't put a finger on it. His gaze moved to Saifah, the eldest of the three brothers. He could see that Saifah was staring at Jui pretty intently and the latter was pretending he couldn't feel Saifah's gaze at all.

This made Aum further confused. He knew that if Jui had ever dated someone like Saifah, he would definitely brag about it to them be it a successful relationship or a flop one. He was sure that he had never heard Jui mention Saifah before.

"Hey, we meet again," Saifah greeted Jui.

"Have we met before?" Jui asked with a clueless expression.

Saifah could see that Jui actually remembered him but was acting otherwise. So, he decided to play along and see where it goes. "Yes. We met at the cafe yesterday. I took your order by mistake."

Running into Jui at the cafe had indeed been a coincidence. He had ordered the same drink as Jui and accidentally took Jui's order as his. As he had seen Jui from the photo Zo had shown them and heard about the younger guy from Sailom, he had been intrigued about the stylist.

What roused his curiosity was the way Jui reacted when he realized that their orders were interchanged. As far as he was told, Jui was the kind of guy who would make a move on him. But to his surprise, when Jui found out that his order has been taken by Saifah, he gave a rather indifferent response.

He had expected Jui to use this opportunity to interact with him, but the latter had just walked away with his new drink. This attitude didn't sit well with Saifah.

"Oh? I am sorry I didn't recognize you, Khun Saifah." Jui apologized modestly.

"You don't have to be so formal with me. You can just call me P' Fah," Saifah flashed his signature dimpled smile at Jui.

The dialogue almost gave Zo a heart attack. Saifah allowing Jui to call him 'P' Fah' didn't seem like a good sign to him.

I know this chapter is a mess but I hope I managed to bring the situation of all the characters together in this chapter.

Sorry about the late updates. I had been a bit caught up with work and didn't get much free time to commit to writing.
