Mr. Boss, His Assistant and The Intern

Chapter 42

"Nan?" Nuerna was so shocked when he saw the guy came into his office with one of his assistants.

"Ah, Khun Nattapong knows N'Nan?" The assistant asked. Nuerna blinked while nodding. Nan slightly nodded.

"We have met at university..." Nan said slowly while looking at Nuerna. The assistant tilted her head before formed an O.

"Yes, oh yeah, I totally forgot. Then, that's cool. Make my job easier because I'm sure you guys can work together easily if already know each other."

"P'Pear, you said earlier about a new assistant to replace P'Gorn momentarily... is Nan?"

"Yeap, correct Khun."

"Oh, okay." Nuerna just nodded and looked at Nan. The assistant, Pear looked at them both and hummed.

"Okay, so I no need to introduce both of you. As I mentioned earlier, N'Nan will take over all P'Gorn's responsibility. Don't worry, he will still be around for a month starting today so he will teach you everything. For 6-7 months period, you will work with us and your temporary reporting manager will be Khun Nattapong himself. All clear, N'Nan?"

Nan nodded. "Clear."

"Okay. Khun Nattapong has anything to add?" Pear asked. Nuerna shook his head. "Okay, then that's all for the new assistant reporting. We will take our leave." Pear concluded.

"You may take leave first, I have things to say with Nan." Nuerna said. Pear nodded understandingly and left. The two looked at each other after Pear closed the office door. "Nan, I-"

"I was shocked at first when I saw you on stage that day in the party."

Nuerna frowned. "Party?"

"The night you're publicly announced as the new CEO." Nan answered calmly.

"You're there?" Nuerna shocked. Nan nodded.

"My senior asked me to accompany him. As the party allowed to bring a plus one. Thou I'm also a worker in the company." Nan said.

"Oh... okay that's true. Nan, about this..."

"It's fine, I understand." Nan said. "From what I hear, your identity was never revealed until that night. So, it's fine that you didn't tell me too. But yeah, I'm a bit sad."

"I'm sorry. I want to tell you but I don't know how to start. Plus, when I heard you're going to start working here, I-"

"Please, stop feeling guilty. I'm fine. We're fine." Nan said. Nuerna looked at Nan. He got up from his seat and walked closer to Nan. Nan just watched his movement.

"Nan."

"Yes?"

"I know we haven't talk properly about us after that day." Nuerna started. Nan nodded. "But I hope you know we're in the same page."

"Huum." Nan nodded.

"I have problems... I don't know if it could be called as a trauma or what, but I have a fear of love confession. Precisely, I can't confess and let out my feeling in words." Nuerna started. Nan noticed the hands started to shake as he talked so he instinctively reached to hold it. He kind of know that the guy was forcing himself to talk. Nuerna tightened their hold. "I want to tell you my feeling so bad after you tell me but I- the past-"

"Hey, it's okay. I got you. Don't continue if you can't take it." Nan said caressing the hands with his thumbs soothingly. Nuerna looked at Nan.

"Okay. But at least I know I have the courage to say this one... can we be exclusive?" Nuerna asked with the voice getting smaller word by word. Nan blinked, his cheeks turned rosy.
