iii. the nerd guy

long time no update 🙃

Earlier the next day, Kongpob got ready for his first day of work. Checking out his appearance, even he couldn't believe who the person was in front of him.

From his usual brushed up hair, as a disguise, he had his hair down covering his forehead creating a full out bangs. He had a pair of eyeglasses covering his dark pupils. To complete his look, he wore a colorful jacket paired up with washed up jeans and rubber shoes contradicting his usual suits. As an accessory, he had a colorful wristwatch instead of the silver watch his mother gave him.

Overall, he really turned into a complete nerd instead different from his smart look.

Beside him, Mr. Khan smiled at him. "If I haven't helped you, I won't think that you're Kong, you really are different from your usual self"

"I am. It's good, the workers there won't even know me"

Mr. Khan gave him another phone, "Here's the phone of wait what will your name be?"

"I haven't think of it but it's better if it's close to my real name like Kong, yeah I think I'll use Kong"

"Okay, Kong, here's your phone, I did what you told me, the only contact there is mine, want me to put your friends' contacts?"

"No, no. I don't want them to know yet, they'll probably think it's stupid"

"Then you better go before any of them wakes up, I'll just entertain them"

"Thanks Loong, as much as possible, don't reveal any of these"

"Of course"

"I'll be going"

As Kongpob stepped out of his house, he felt different, it's as if he's in a different body, different person. He hadn't thought of how to act as a 'Nerd Kong' yet but he thought that he should act appropriately of what people around might expect with a nerd like him.

As he arrived inside the company, when he greeted the woman working at the front desk, instead of flirting with him like yesterday, the woman gave him a brief glance and told him everything what he needed to know. Kongpob didn't know if he would be glad or he would be offended. Some people really, they all just care about looks.

He went inside the elevator and before the doors closed, a hand suddenly shot inside. Kongpob sensed a feeling of déjà vu. The door opened to reveal the elevator guy. Kongpob almost smiled at him but suddenly realized he's supposed to be a different guy so he just nodded.

The elevator guy smiled and damn Kongpob almost fainted. The smile was so beautiful Kongpob was glad he saw it in his lifetime.

Kongpob also realized that the elevator guy didn't recognize it's him or else he'd be frowning at him and calling him the 'elevator creep'.

"You're new here?" The guy asked.

Oh now he's talking to Kongpob. "Yeah. A-actually it's my first day here today" Kongpob shyly said.

"Oh. Goodluck then. Wish you'd like it here" 'Oh. I love it here because of you'

"Y-yeah"

When the door opened, they both went inside. The elevator guy looked at him and smiled, "Oh we have the same floor, wish we'd meet. Bye for now"

"O-okay"

Kongpob was so shocked, not only his crush was smiling at him but he wish that they would meet once in a while. Kongpob smiled and went to the pantry, suddenly, he's hungry.
