Sweetness

Chapter 13

After P'Forth went away, Beam waited for Pha's returned. His best friend texted him before hand so they could went home together. Beam were waiting alone when suddenly out of nowhere Prink approached him.

"Ai Beam. What a surprise to see you here. Usually both you and Kit be with Pha but today both of you were absent. Got yourself a date, hm?"

Beam smiled politely. He didn't feel comfortable being alone with Prink at the moment. "Afternoon, Prink. Yeah, we got our own agenda today. You were here for the star moon meeting, right? Pha told me to wait for him so we could hang out together."

Prink have him a surprised look. "Oh your date leave you already? He's quite handsome, though. I saw you both came here on his bike. So how about my offer? You will get a better date than that one. No more going around on a bike. Want to take it?" Prink winked at him.

Beam shook his head. "Thanks Prink but I'm fine with him." He felt insulted on Forth behalf. So what if P' Forth love going around with his bike? It's his choice anyway.

"Ai Beam, sorry for the wait. Let's go. See you when I see you, Prink." Pha's voice made Beam stood and move out from the table. "Pha, can I went along with you guys? I have free time today." Prink asked, definitely tried to tag along.

"I heard P' Jeed were looking for you. Better you meet her, it seems important. You know it's not wise to keep her waiting, na. Beam, come on. I believe Kit's waiting."

Pha told her off politely while urging Beam to tag along.

Beam waved at Prink then followed Pha. Wew, free from the witch. Pha seemed in a bad mood. Maybe he's just hungry. Beam reached towards his plastic bag and offered Pha a banana cake (P'Forth bougth it for him but that's nobody business). Pha received it and start eating.

"The guy I saw with you earlier, he is the client, right? The one Ging told us about."

Beam nodded. "How is he?" Pha already demolished the cake so his mouth were free to interogate Beam.

"He's ok, I guess? Polite, mature, good looking. Seemed financially stable to have a boy toy." Hearing his words, Pha's face got a scowl on. Beam clucked his tounge.

"Ai Pha, don't interogate me like this. Ai Kit already called earlier to check for serial killer potential. Not you too. I'm not underage. I know what I'm doing. We only talked and had lunch together. No funny business. I do have a date with his tonight though."

Pha turned his head toward Beam. "Promise me you will tell Kit and me if something alarming happened, ok? We're just worry you know. It's already gnawing at my consience to let you do something like this."

Beam felt touched. Ah, his mother hen duo. "I promised. So erase that frown na, you'll scare your fans with that face." Pha just mumbled. Beam laughed at him. Like that could happened. Knowing Pha's fans, they will keep swooned at his glare. They reached Pha's Bentley and drove out the campus.

Pha dropped him off then went to his own room. Beam steeled his nerve. From what he heard from Kit's phone call, he got another worried mother hen, right at his room. It's no surprise for him that as soon as he entered their apartment, Kit started to hound him like hyperactive corgi. Beam had to pull him down to the couch to calm him down.

"Ai Kit, calm down, calm down na. I'm alright! Nothing bad happened to me. See, still alive and kicking! Let's breath together. Come on. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale." Beam's word earned his a whack from Kit.

"Shitty Beam! I'm not a woman in emergency to give birth! I don't need breathing instruction. I'm just worry, you fool."

Beam only grinned hearing Kit's words. Sometime Kit indeed need the breathing instruction. With his quick temper, it's a safety procedure to avoid a tantrum, just in case. Beam never knew how often he will asked Kit to breath in the future, especially when that future suitor of his were involved.

"I tell you once more, everything is fine. P'Forth is a gentleman. Pha accidentally met him and you know how's Pha attitude. P'Forth acknowledged both your worry but he's my business. I promise you, like I did Ai Pha, that I'll tell you if something happened."

Kit searched his face, looking for deception. He sighed because he found none. Kit believed Beam's judgement but it's still better safe than sorry. Beam gave him a sweet smile. "Hmm, actually you could see him by yourself. He'll be here on 6 to pick me up."

Seeing the big question mark above Kit's head, Beam told him their agenda.

"I'm having a date with him tonight."
