On Mother's Day, being far from my mom, I could only video call my mom to tell her I love her through communication devices. She was cheerful and chatted with me for almost three hours. I don't know if my phone battery is deteriorating, haha. But for me, Mother's Day isn't that special because I tell my mom I love her every day. ^_^

My friends all acted like good sons, staying with their moms, taking them out, and having meals together. Even Phum went back to sleep at home to please his mom. I felt a bit lonely, hehe, just kidding. I went to see Aunt Pui. I brought a jasmine plant to pay respects and didn't forget to thank her for everything she has done for me. We both teared up a bit (and after that, she screamed, wanting a child of her own).

Peem loves mom and Aunt Pui. ^^

The next night, we had a small celebration. It wasn't related to Mother's Day or my anniversary with Phum, but purely because Q wanted to.

His reason was that it rained often and the coins looked nice. See, if someone wants to drink, they'll find an excuse. Plus, Q wanted a change of scenery, tired of fancy clubs, so we went to a chill local pub. I'm used to it, but I don't know if Beer and Phum have ever been here because we've always gone to clubs since we started dating.

This place is one I often visit with my friends from the faculty (I once sneaked here without Phum knowing, shh). Architecture and Fine Arts students like it because it's retro, vintage, indie, and artsy. The atmosphere is nice, with a cool breeze, and the place is spacious with wooden tables and chairs like those in old coffee shops. Importantly, the owner is a alumnus from my faculty, haha. The highlight is the ice discount.

[T/n: This's Phi Ueay's pub, the 'nut' guy in the Prologue.]

Q called for a gathering at 9 PM, but Phum and I arrived at 10:30 PM because Khun Chai Phum dressed up too much. I made him change into a cool graphic tee instead of a shirt and jacket. If he wore that, he'd stand out even more. No way I'd allow that, haha, I have to be the star.

"Phum, let go, people are watching." As soon as we stepped into the bar, his arm automatically wrapped around my waist. My waist is going to get smaller because of his hugging. Afraid people won't know he's got me? Damn it!

"Phum, let go." I shouted over the singer's voice on stage, but he just looked at me with an exasperated face and pulled me closer. Did I communicate poorly, or is his hearing impaired? Okay, I should stay still, right? Do whatever you want, hug, touch, whatever. I'm all yours.

"Do you care about others or me?"

Look at him asking. I care about myself, I'm embarrassed. That's what I thought, but to keep my life, I said,

"I care about you." T_T

[T/n: 🤣🤣🤣]

"Good, people will know you're mine."

If anyone doesn't know, they must be grazing*. He's making it so obvious. Next time, just write on my forehead that I have a boyfriend. People were staring from the first table to the last. There goes my carefully built image. I don't want to live anymore.

[*graze -> buffalo (Ai kwai) -> idiots
T/n: Image? Do you have something like that, Peem?]

"Best couple of the year, over here!"

Q, you devil. Have you ever thought that I might be embarrassed? Phum and I sat at the spot they saved for us. It seemed everyone was here. My friends smiled and teased about what Q said earlier. Don't let it be my turn.
