Arthit POV
I drove away with a smile plastered on my face. "Simba", how cute! He is probably the cutest being I have ever met. Sigh, how I wish I could meet him everyday. Well, I can try tho, he does not seem to refuse any of my offers. Well, well, it should be fine until I don't freak him out. As soon as I reached my apartment, I simply dived into my bed without a second thought with a stupid grin plastered on my face. Aww it's 11pm, I need to get ready for tomorrow. My heart was racing against my chest. I feel mushy all over.
But wait! Who is Cherry? His friend who was then his girlfriend? Doesn't that sound crazy? Or is it just me? How can you still talk normally to your ex-girlfriend? Arggh.I hate it. I hate this feeling of..... I don't know? Just then my my phone pinged indicating a message. I was hyper excited thinking that it was a message from Kongpob. I almost ripped my pants' pocket in the process of taking my phone out of them, just to be disappointed.
"Nong Arthit, get some sleep for the shoot tomorrow dear" messaged P'Yui.
Oh its just her. I replied with a simple okay and threw it haphazardly. I rolled on my back and stared at the Ceiling. Talking about Emma... She wasn't a good experience. Was Cherry like that to him too? Did he go though the same pain. I don't think so. He rather seemed content to have parted ways with her. Am I happy too? Yes. Very much. I am not sure about being happy to have parted ways with Emma but definitely happy over the fact that he broke up with cherry. I don't why? I am extremely in a good mood today but I needed sleep to drive my sleepiness away and just like that I slipped into my dream world.
I am happy today. A new day. A fresh star. I could bet my fortune that I would do a great job today. I took out my phone to look at my LINE. There was one message from particular someone which made elated me even more.
It read, "P' I reached, Thanks for the ride! I slept early yesterday so I couldn't send you the message"
How well mannered! Hoho! HOLD UP? What's so good about the message? Ain't it a basic etiquette? But it is from Kongpob so why not and what not?
That's okay! Good morning to you to you too! Hope you have a great day ahead!
" Oh sorry P' Good morning, have a nice day"
He hehe!! I was giggling to myself. When Someone hit my butt really hard. OUCH!! I winced in pain turned around to see Bright, with his patented - 'Not upto any good' grin on his damned face.
"Eyy Arthit? How are you man? How was your date lol? Did you get some action that night? Have you lost your virginity yet?Don't tell me, you lost your chance again? Did she say that you were a bad kisser? If it didn't work you need not be shy and just ask your expert friend Bright to set you up with one. You know I am very generous. I will surely help. Talking about my generosity, don't you think I could-
I slammed the file I was carrying with me on his face and said, "Will you let me answer? Or are you just gonna blurt out your assumptions and really lose your ability to reproduce? Listen carefully. I am not going repeat this for you--"
"Hey Arthit, I know you are going to decline the fact that you went on a date. It's okay. We celebrities do have life man. Its okay to be reckless."
"Shut your effing mouth up please. Before you say anything more, let me tell you, I was meeting a friend AND he is a guy. So no date whatsoever. Get your mind out of gutter, I have work. Bye."
I drifted away with my work. Meanwhile he shouted behind my back," It's okay, Arthit, I will set you up with one".
"Shut the hell up you jerk."
The day was boring and fun. Fun because, I was engrossed with the new concept shoot. Boring because there was significantly no hint of any messages from the someone. It was 7pm. I slowly made my way out of the building only to be abruptly stopped by Mook, a Co-actor. The female lead of my new drama.
She was a sweet lady with overflowing good vibes around her and always cheerful. "P'Arthit, do you want to have dinner together? All my friends left already and my manager has some more work to do, so I am left alone. Since I am not tired, would like to go with me?"
I mused at the offer for a while. It's not like I had anything to do. Maybe it's not a bad idea. Before I could agree, my phone pinged. I quickly pulled it out. The message was from Kongpob.
"P' my classes are over and since tomorrow is weekend, I have ample amount of time to spare.... Would you mind to train me over dinner? If that's not too much to ask....its okay if you can't.."
Holy shit! Of course I would love to...but lying again? What's his deal? Must find out but then later we won't have reason to meet then. I guess, I will put that matter aside and savour the moment. Without hesitating, I answered,
Okay, Come near the library. I am done with my work too.
By the time I clicked the send button, I would feel my cheeks hurt due to the excessive stretch. And all this while Mook was silently watching me.
"So P'Arthit... Are you coming or not?"
I quickly looked up from my phone and stared at her for a good five seconds and said, "Oh Mook, my friend said he wants to meet up tonight....it's been a while... So I was thinking I could comply while I had time today... I am sorry..."
It didn't not take long before she uttered those irritable words, "Oh P' like I said I am alone, so I don't mind coming along... Can I? I would love to be introduceed to your friend." With that, she smiled at me sweetly.
I couldn't refuse nor did I agree. I was trying my best to find a polite decline.
Before I could even come up with one, she dragged me to my car and said," Go in P' I skipped my lunch, I am really hungry. Let's go already!"Wait up! Did I say that she is rather oddly cheerful when it comes to meddling with others affair? And that's exactly what's happening right now. She has been constantly questioning Kongpob and he seems quite happy replying to her. I could even imagine his whipped smiley faces which he never showed me.Practically, this is the third time we are meeting but still I haven't seen those sides of him.
"Nong Kong, So you are doing Arts and Economics in SSU University? Hoy, that's a prestigious university, isn't it? So what do you plan on doing after University?"
Before he could spill the beans of not being an actor trainee, I interrupted them saying, "Nong Mook,which restaurant would you like to go? Suggest place where 'Kongpob' can be comfortable"
What's with 'KONG'? Even I have not addressed him like that. Okay. Yeah we know each other only for three days, but still.
"P' why ask me if you want Nong Kong to be comfortable? Ask him. If you really want my suggestion then how about the 'City walk' restaurant. Its pricey there but it's safer also."
I contemplated for a second before saying, "Alright! My treat." I drove away and pulled my car near the restaurant and said, "Kongpob get down here with Mook, I will park and be right back". He nodded and got down the car while I went find a parking spot. After parking, I was walking faster not wanting those two to be alone any longer.Just when reached, the scene of Mook touching Kong's forehead made me furious. But before I could snap her hand away from him, she moved her hands away and smiled sweetly at him and he returned it with equal intensity.Uff. I hate this. When I paced towards them, I saw Kong look at me and the edge of his lips twitched revealing his teethy smile. And I smiled right back, not noticing anything abnormal around us.
