Khao's pov:

I get ready as fast as I can and pack my clothes into a bag that First gave me earlier. He is in his room as I impatiently wait in the living room.

Last night was unbelievable. I don't recognize what was a reality and what was a dream. I remember him confessing to me and my crying was unstoppable. He even slept in my room while holding me for the whole night.

Now, What's next?

Are we a couple? No way! He is still engaged to View. He said he'll break it off but I can't let my guards down. Even though he promises to protect me; I don't believe that he can. If First wasn't so rich, I would have believed him, but the elites can't be trusted. They themselves never get hurt. I have experienced that every well.

Words gets twisted, people are bought and evidences get manipulated. So even though I know First won't do anything to hurt me, I don't know anything about his family. Why would his parents accept someone like me as their son in law? What will they think if they know their son likes a poor slave boy than a lady who would bring them business, more wealth and birth a heir ?

"Is this for me?" I look up and see First standing in front of me. When did he even come out of his room? I was so absorbed in the thoughts. He looks so good with his brown jacket and different hairstyle. It's more casual. I guess because he isn't going to the office today. I love how his hair falls down on the half side of his forehead.

"Khao?" He smiles while looking right into my eyes. Ugh. My weakness.

"Umm yes..I prepared the breakfast and coffee for you"

He smiles as he sits down in front of the plate. I just watch him eat.

When we are about to leave, he calls my name. I stop and look at him. He smiles and walks closer. What is he doing? I get nervous.

I swallow hard as he stands so close to me. "First?" I ask in a low voice. My knees feel weak. I know we both confessed that we like each other but... but I can't just start being lovey-dovey with him...

He needs to take care of his so called wedding first! I'm just a guy that was brought here for helping in the planning of HIS wedding. I remind myself again. I can't allow myself to get lost in his eyes.

My breath becomes uneven as he leans towards me. His lips practically just few inches apart. Is he going to kiss me?

I panic. "I'll take this to the car!!" I almost shout escaping; before he can trap me. I don't stop to look at him as I run downstairs with my bag.

"It's 8 hours journey to Chiang Rai.." First says as we walk in the parking lot.

He seems to let go of the following questions of the "almost kiss" that I avoided. Atleast for now. I nod and put the bags in the car.

"You know Khao? Chiang Rai has some nice resorts... I was thinking after talking to Monk Sadhu..maybe we both can spend some time together? Talk things through? Relax a bit? I know past days were so stressful for you..." He asks as he caresses my waist before holding it firmly. I hate how perfect it fits into his hold. I gather all the energy and jump away. He looks confused.

This is happening too fast. I don't know how to tell this to First!! Spending time together at resort? What about his wedding??? Isn't that a cheating? Who am I to him? His side boyfriend ?

"Khao? What ha-"

we are interrupted by a voice.

"Hello there!"

Two people walk towards us!

"P'Force ? Book ?" I ask surprised. Lately seeing Book with P'Force a lot. Are they friends? I need to speak with Book about this!
