Arthit

Arthit forgot where he was.  His eyes were transfixed on the figure walking on to the stage.  He was right.

His palms started to sweat.  His heart was in his mouth.  He could feel sweat forming on his forehead despite the air conditioning.

Arthit was swelling in pride.  That was his best friend being recognized by many company heads.

Arthit didn't remove his gaze away from Knott.  His eyes followed Knott to where he was seated.  The others at his table were extending their arms, congratulating him.  He couldn't see Knott after he took his seat.  He waited until the ceremony was over and headed towards Knott's table and tapped on his shoulder.

"I'm doing great Arthit

"I'm doing great Arthit.  I see you already met my husband and daughter," Fang said smiling.

"Your husband?  You are married to Knott?"
