Third POV

     The air is cold and there is no sound in a certain house. Yes, it's still early in the morning. The sun doesn't appear yet make two persons whose laying in their bed cuddled each other because of the morning coldness and coldness from room air conditioner.

     Eventually one of them open his eyes. This early bird name is Ae. He is the head of Intouch household. The called household just consist of Ae and his beautiful 'wife', Pete.

     Before fully awakes, Ae takes a deep breath of his wife aroma. Pete's smell like a baby powder every time Ae smelling him. After gives a lot of butterfly kisses on his wife's hair and cheeks, Ae ready to leave their love nest. He carefully untangled himself from his lovely wife, afraid the adorable creature awakened.

     It's still 4 am, but Ae already out of bed to make some exercises. He always run in the morning in his house complex then make preparation for breakfast. The sound from kitchen and lack of warm from his husband make the beautiful person awakes.

"Ae~....Ae khrub~" a lovely voices heard from the bedroom makes Ae halted his activities and rushes to the source of the voice.

"Awake darling? Ae just in the kitchen made 'tom kha gai' for breakfast."

"Hemm, but Pete wants shrimp porridge Ae, na na~" Pete whining while hugging his husband in bed.

"Haha, but we already eat that yesterday. Why my baby always want shrimp porridge huh?" Ae can't help to chuckle a little before his wife.

"Because Ae loves shrimp porridge of course." Pete answer with his pouting.

"But Ae loves Pete more." Then the sweet talker attacks his wife with kisses on his white and smooth neck. The action makes Pete squealing and giggling.

"Ahaha... Ae~ stop, ahh... please~"

"Okay then. Let's get up and have breakfast together." Just when Ae wanna pickup his wife from bed, Pete holds his hand.

"Pete will walk Ae." Pete said with determination.

"No Pete. I don't want you to fall and hurt yourself." Pete smiles after heard what Ae said.

"It's okay Ae, doctor said that Pete must walk regularly although just for a little."

     Ae's eyes full of concern. His wife had an accident 7 months ago and got intensive care in the hospital because of the critical condition and just 2 days ago they could go home. Despite of doctor allowed Pete to go home, Pete has an issue with his feets. He still can't walk normally and have to attend therapy session every weeks.

     The bad memories make Ae clenched his hands hard. He always blame himself every times he looked Pete laying in hospital bed for months. He can't forgive himself because he harmed the most important person in his life. He still can't understand why he acted so stupid and shameless until made Pete suffered because of him.

"Ae really sorry na Pete." Pete got stunned hear Ae miserable apologize.

"Ae, please don't blame yourself anymore. It's already in the past, and Ae right now take care of Pete with so much love. Sometimes Pete thinks that Pete doesn't deserve Ae full attention."

"What are you saying Pete. Of course you deserve it." Ae hastily cut Pete words.

"But Ae can't do that. Ae should give some attention to another like Mae, Por, P'Oh, P'Nat, and N'Yim, and and don't forget our friends. They always asked Ae to hangout but Ae always reject them." Pete continued his speech while pouting to his husband.

"Our family understand that Ae must take care of you Pete, and don't listen to Pond when he complained I didn't go to his birthday party or football team reunion. You are more important. I can't leave you alone or took you there because you're still weak and need a lot of rest okay. Let's stop this matter here, and let me carry you to dinning room." Ae bridal carry Pete and went to have their breakfast. Pete just went along his husband because he knows there's no room for retaliate.

Ae's POV

     After we had breakfast we have bath together. I can't let Pete to bath himself because God's know that he can hurt himself in the bathroom. Clock already show at 7 when I got dressed to work.

"Pete, just stay inside house na. Don't go anywhere. When you need something just call Par Pring."

"Krub Ae." Pete answer while give his cute smile as always.

"Good. Ae will come at 3. See you soon koon chai." I give Pete passionate kisses then close our bedroom door leaving Pete alone on bed.

     Before I reached garage to take my car, Par Pring come opening gate. Par Pring is a kind woman and always has smile in her face. She already 50 years old this year but she really strong, much stronger than my wife.

"Good morning Par Pring."

"Good morning Khun Ae, did I come to early this morning?" Par Pring answer my greeting while opening the gate for my car.

"No Par Pring, thanks for always come early morning. Please take care of Pete today."

"Of course Khun Ae, don't worry about Khun Pete. I'll take a good care of him today as well."

"Thank you Par, and please don't let Pete to walk by himself krub." I ask Par Pring the same request after Pete went home from hospital. I always get worried if Pete fall when walk, so I request Pete to stick on our bed.

"Understood khun Ae." I saw Par Pring shake her head while smilling. She already knew my worries and obsession of Pete.

"Then, see you later Par Pring. Please call me when something happen." I ignite my car and go to work.
