Chapter 14

[Announcemnt]

First of all, I am really sorry that I was gone for so long. I didn't realize it would be this long. But I've finally decided to continue this fic. To be honest, I'm not completely ready but I don't want to be irresponsible and leave my readers just like that. I've read all your comments and I'm extremely thankful for the love and support you guys gave me! You guys are the main reason I decided to continue. And I saw a lot of people were curious about what happened. The person responsible still hasn't apologized but the situation seemed to have died down. The Chinese fans have boycotted this amazing show but I know that there are still a lot of people supporting. Anyway, I will finish this fic and try my best. I am sorry again for just leaving like that.

There were a lot of things on Win's mind. He knew that somehow he has feelings for Bright and he is not confused about it. But the thing that worried him was the stability of their relationship if they were to have one. They barely know each other and he was more worried Bright was only attached to him because he was the only one around Bright during his life crisis. But Win still enjoyed the way Bright cares about him. No one has really done that for him. 

Deep in his thoughts, he didn't realize Thannam had been staring at him for quite a while now. She then snapped her fingers in front of Win to get his attention. "Did you sell your conscious to the devil? I've been sitting in front of you at least five minutes." 

"Sorry, I just have a lot of things going on in my mind," Win sighed. 

"I know that feeling though. But didn't you guys agreed to get to know each other?" Thannam asked. 

"Yes... but I never told you that," Win suspiciously looked at her. 

Thannam sighed and finally decided she was going to tell him. "Okay, there is no point in hiding it anymore. I am Bright's sister."

"Not funny," Win squinted his eyes.

"I am not joking."

"You can't seriously be-" Win paused and saw how serious was Thannam's face. "You've got to be fucking kidding me!! And you decided not to tell me all this?? I basically told you everything about me!" 

"I know! You know I don't like talking about my family. I am sorry, okay? I swear I didn't plan to keep it a secret. At first, I just didn't want the hospital to know I'm his sister. When I decided not to tell you, I never knew things between you two will escalate this much. Please don't be mad at me, okay?"

"I am not mad at you. It's just that... I never expected it. So you know him well? What did he say things about me?" Win asked.

"I thought you would be mad at me but you care more about what he thinks about you?" Thannam crossed her arms. 

"I know how much you don't like speaking about your family. So what did he say about me?"

"I'm not telling you!" Thannam stuck her tongue out. 

"Cmon! I didn't even get mad at you! You should at least tell me a bit!" 

"No!"

Win was called off the case so he was just doing rounds when he ran into P'Dim. He greeted with his two hands and smiled, "Sawadee krub, P'Dim."

"Win? How's the patient from Room 1048 doing?" he asked.

"The vitals are looking good and stable." 

"By the way, since you have no cases right now. Ever thought of going on a vacation?" 

"Vacation? How can a resident dream of going on a vacation?"

"I mean... I checked your records and all. You work pretty long shifts. And you don't have a case right now so might as well take some time off. In a few weeks is flu season, we'll all be busy," P'Dim suggested. 

"O-okay. I will think about it?"

"Y-yeah... I'm suggesting it to a few residents! I didn't have the privilege when I was a resident."

"Krub, P'Dim." Win just nodded. Win was pretty sure that there was no head resident in history that ever suggested a resident go on vacation. He was about to head home when he received a message from Bright.

Saraleo: I'm at the parking lot... are you getting off work soon?

Win shoved his phone into his pocket and quickly got changed. He could feel his phone buzzing meaning Bright probably texted more because he didn't reply. He said goodbye to the other residents and headed towards the parking lot.

He spotted Bright waiting in front of the car with his hands in the pocket. He smiled when Win approached him. "Took you long enough," he said. 

"Yeah, but you didn't have to spam me with messages," Win rolled his eyes as he pulled out to check the messages. 

"I sent you one message," Bright made a grumpy face. 

When Win actually checked, the other messages were from Tor. 

Tor: hey you wanna hang out this weekend? 

Tor: I'm meeting with some of our old friends... they miss you too! 

Tor: I can come and pick you up?

Bright snatched the phone from Win's phone and scrunched his face. He typed something and tossed back the phone and told Win to get in. Win then checked what he sent;

Win: I'm busy. I'm going with someone else. Stop texting me.

"Ai'shiaa, why would you do that?" Win complained as he got into the car. 

"I don't like you text other guys," Bright simply said as he started the engine. 

"Wait, where are we going?"

"To get dinner." 

"You don't just get to show up and kidnap me to a dinner date." 

"Whatever! Let's go on a trip. I feel like we both just need to get away from everything and spend some quality time. That way, he can truly get to know each other. Please say yes, I already made reservations. And I don't get refunded. I'm jobless and broke so you gotta feel pity for me."

"Are you guilt-tripping me?" Win chuckled as he couldn't help how cute Bright sounds. 

"So are you saying yes?"

"Ugh, fine. Somehow someone suggested the same thing. But okay, let's go. Vacation doesn't sound so bad. Where are you thinking?" 

"Let's go to the beach!"
