I want to go home. I'm both mentally and physically drained.
"Ma I'm home!" I shout. "Hey Nhu! What happened?" I turn around to see my Brother, Yim. "Oh yim?" He's always been busy with work to visit us, what's he doing here now?"What are you doing here?"I ask, he's never even thought about coming back home. Why's he here now? I have so many questions to ask him right now. "I know you're probably wondering, 'why in the world is he here right now?' But I got a transfer from Hua hin. And...I missed you guys so much!" He says, running up to me with open hands. "Speaking of missing, Where's ma?" I ask, "I haven't seen her today." He says. "She's probably out buying groceries." He says "Ok yim, let's get you settled in my room." "Ok phi"
I get him settled in my room as I tell what happened today. "You mean you applied for Super sun and got accepted? The super sun? The one with the hot ceo?" He asks. "What do you mean he's hot?" I ask back.
"Well I've seen him in a few interviews and I gotta admit, he really hot."
He says, "Oh my god, don't tell me you have a crush on him?"
"What? no! I didn't mean it that way." Thank god. " Anyway I have to go sleep so i can go to work tomorrow. " I say, standing up and waking over to my bed. "Ok phi, Goodnight."he says as I nod my head and wrap my blanket around my body and allowing myself to sleep._______________________
I can bearly keep my eyes open as I get ready for work. That FREAK Nat just ruined my 8 hours of sleep by saying those words. Are pretty people always the weird ones? I get putting a formal suit. Looking in the mirror, "I'm so tired to even compliment myself today" I say."Good luck at work today!" Yim says. "Thank you yim" I say before heading out the door. As I get on the bus, i feel kind of nervous. I didn't even feel this nervous when the interview happened. I hope the Ceo isn't like what nat said.
I go inside the company, looking around for the counter. Seeing that the girl from yesterday isn't there. Instead there's someone else. "Excuse me" I say trying to catch his attention. "Oh nunew?" Nat? What is he doing here? "Nat?" I ask, visibly confused.
"Oh the lady just told me to stay in here while she goes to inform upper management. I'm not the one working at the counter." Well thats a relief the thought of seeing this face every time I walk into the company sends shivers down my spine. "Well if you want to know where the ceo's office is, i suggest you look at the blue board at the front." He says."Well atleast he's being helpful" I murmur under my breath as I go to the blue board. "Ceo's office : 14th floor" I go near the elevator clicking on the button edged with the number 14 on the top. As the elevator comes down, it's packed. "Excuse me, make way please!" I say trying to squeeze in. Are you trying to make me take the stairs universe? Not today! I was lost in my thoughts as I look around seeing nobody around.
"Ow, where did they all go?" I say to myself. "They're probably scared of me." I hear someone say, they turn around, its- Mr.Zee? "Good morning, khun zee" I say trying to get him to wish me back.Instead he just nods, we both walk out of the elevator and I see p'max standing in front of me. "P'max, good morning." I say with wide smile. "Sawadee nunew." He replies. "Get him settled" Mr.zee quickly says before going into his office. "Don't mind him he's always like that." P'Max says.
"This is your office its direct to Zee's office. I'll send you his schedule and appointments. Get them organised and present it to me." He says, handing me some printouts as we walk into my office. "Get these done and after I approve it you can read them to the ceo." He quickly says before rushing off. "Where's he off to?" I say under my breath. I get organised and start to do my work. "Wahh it's over. Why is the ceo this damn busy?" I quickly print it out and proceed to go to Max's office.
I bump into someone on my way. Could it be? Please don't be Nat. Please! "Hey Nhu!" Damn it. It's him "hello, could you please move?" I say, trying to avoid him. "Where do think you're going?" He says. "To P'max's office." I say, still trying to avoid him "My boss?" He says.
"Huh?" I ask in confusion, his boss? "Yep I'm his secretary." He says.
"Oww looky there. You warned me about my boss being a creep, but you're working under one yourself!" I quickly cover my mouth. What was i thinking? Snapping back?!"Well i thought you couldn't talk more than 3 words." He says, chuckling
"What do you want huh? You've been trying to get on my nerve ever since I came here." I snap at him again. "I'm just trying to be your buddy. I mean no harm." He says, waving an imaginary flag in his hand.
"Anyway I have to get these to P'Max." "I'll come with!" He says. "No need!" I shout. He's still following me. Great.I get to his office as nat walks infront of me. He knocks on the door. "Come in!" I hear Phi say at the other side of the door. Nat walks in and so I. "Ow N'Nhu?" Ok Why's everyone getting calling me Nhu now?
"P'Max, here's the files you asked for." I say, handing over the copies.
He goes over them once. "Waa N'Nhu, you're really something. These are so well organised." He compliments me. "Can I get them to the ceo now?" I ask. "Sure, it look good." "Ok phi." I say before walking out and heading to the ceo's office.I knocked on the door, But there was no response. I let myself and I see a exhausted man lying on the couch. It was none other than Mr. Zee Pruk.
"Aww how can anyone say he's a creep? He sleeps like a baby." I say, softly chuckling as I go over to him. "Mr.Zee pruk is now a sleeping beauty." He's so well..cute. i get his bangs out of his face to see long luscious lashes and a pale face. He must be exhausted from working. But then again, It is his job isn't it?"Ow khun zee now all my amazingly organised files have to wait." I say as I turn around to leave. But suddenly a hand catches me. "Khun Zee? What are you doing?" I ask, flustered. He gets up and hugs me tight.
"Why are you so nice to me?" He says, I think he's crying. "Khun Zee, are you ok?" I worriedly ask. "No, no I'm not. Everyone thinks I'm a bad person but I'm not. Why is everyone so mean?" He whines.I let out a small chuckle. "Khun Zee, I'm sorry but this is how the world works." "Nunew, Do you think I'm a bad person too?" I chuckle dryly.
"No, i don't think you're a bad person now." I say, finally hugging him back. "Thank you, i really needed to hear that." Why do i pity him so much? "You can leave if you don't want to see me crying." He says with a weary voice. "Khun zee, I'd be happy if you wanted to talk about it." I say."No, not now. I'm not ready." He says, hugging me again.
"Then we can just stay like this, i don't mind." I say. But this time it wasn't out of pity. It was something else. I check the time. 8:15 I turn back to see Khun Zee already fast asleep.This guy is really something else. I see my reflection in his eyes.
A/N : Again, English is not my first language so it can be a tad bit tacky too. Also, please give me ideas on how to start Max and Nat's love story. Love you guys! 💚
