30 - She Is Her Safe Zone

How can she be this classy and beautiful but also handsome at the same time?

I cannot take my eyes off Nong Orm as we are on our way to the awards show. Despite the nervousness I start to feel because of the crowd and celebrities that will also be there, my heart is beating rapidly for another reason. My gorgeous date.

Not even needing to think twice, my hands immediately cover her dress and hold her arm as she gets out of the vehicle. I want my lady to be safe.

Finally facing forward, here comes the part of my job that gives me lots of stress; red carpet and tons of cameras. Damn, can I solely act on set and not attend events? I guess not.

Oh right, Nong Orm!

I swiftly look back and lend my hand for her to take as we automatically intertwine our fingers together. The way she rubs her thumb on my palm brings peace inside me as my smile naturally grows.

But my anxiety still finds the chance to kick in when I need to greet the crowd. And I do not understand how Orm can always find ways to comfort me when she does not have a social phobia like I do.

When I feel suffocated, her arm will wrap protectively around my waist to remind me I am not alone. When I am too nervous to stand properly, her hands will guide my body to pose with her. And how she would occasionally smile at me to make sure I was alright escalating the warmth in my chest.

"You're like a goddess, Tee rak. "

"You're a gorgeous lady, P'Ling. You shine."

"I'm so proud to be your date, Lingling."

Those words of affirmation that she will whisper only to me and the knowing look in her eyes that means she can understand my nervous state make me melt straight away. That's why whenever I gaze at her, my widest grin appears effortlessly. She deserves to receive the warmest smile every time for not only loving me but for being willing to understand me whilst reminding me of my worth. I love her so much.

"P'Ling, you never tell me that being your top spender for your brand means I'd not see you often."

We are finally seated, and Orm doesn't let a single second pass for me to dwell on my anxiety, as she keeps me entertained with her animated, nonstop chatter.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"You've been going home late these days. My busy actress girlfriend juggling with her new business means less time for her baby." I laugh at how she can easily say she is my baby when she used to hate that phrase on her before. My laughter then makes her pout even more apparent but unfortunately, I can only stare at her lips without kissing them.

"I'm working this hard so I can marry you, Nong."

I know marriage still feels so long for my young lady but I just cannot help but tease her.

"But I want you beside me more often, P'Ling." I believe if we are not at an awards show right now, she must have started her baby tantrum by this time like always.

I then turn to Orm's mom beside me and speak at a lower volume so Orm cannot eavesdrop our convo. "Mommy, how to handle this baby if she cries?"

Mommy Koy who has been listening to us with a wide smile on her face whispers back to me, "Let her hear some sweet nothings." Is it Orm who wants that or Mommy who wants to enjoy her sailing ship moments?

"What are you guys talking about?!" Orm has been moving her body around, trying to catch anything but to her dismay, she heard nothing.

"How thankful I am to have a clingy sweet lover like you, Nong Orm." Her blush seems to make her brain stop working as she believes that all along. It is not a lie though, I think about her like that for real.
