Chapter 8
Round World​

A brand new European car pulls up in front of the house. Muey went out to get the tall owner who carrying a bag on his shoulders with his laptop and work papers coming out with him. He’s in a bad mood because of the hot weather Muey can tell by looking at his eyes it says it all. She took his belongings, and the tall figure continued to walk to his work table near the living room. He put his laptop bag down took off his tie and threw it on the sofa. From there, he grabbed his phone out of his pocket and called to continue to talk about work with the person on the other line. Muey can tell he’s busy with work. He even sat down and opened his laptop. As she was sure that he didn’t see, Nateerin dared to laugh at how busy he is. For a while, she’s been feeling more happy often after being stressed about having to live a new life. As soon as she sees P’Tian is busy, she’s afraid that his throat would be dry, so she gave him a glass of cold water and put it by his side without saying anything. The calm eyes quickly stared at her as he’s still running his mouth with the other person on the phone. Once she left, she saw the hands typing then grabbed the glass of water and drank it until it was gone seeing that she secretly smile again. As he’s done clearing work, he went to shower before coming down in casual clothing. It’s time for dinner the table is full of food as Mr. pretty boy wants. He went to sit down on the chair glanced at Muey a bit and kept quiet. Muey stares, recently P’Tian is able to eat a lot and isn’t really angry with her easily like before. He didn’t show that he’s uncomfortable like she thought from the start. The only thing that’s the same is he’s still busy with work. For her, P’Tian is a really capable person besides his cold hearted personality, he’s a really precious person and same with P’Ri. Because he knows what he like, he walks the comfortable and skilled path even though he goes against standards that the old folks that put down. The face of the person who’s eating without associating himself with anyone who’s unfamiliar. Even though P’Tian is an adult now, she still sees the same little boy secretly inside him. Is humans, no matter how much we’ve grown we still have that small light inside us that will never change. Same goes for her whenever she looks at him, the feelings she has for him never changed and never will. She still looks at him the same way as she did when she was a kid. Even though she doesn’t get to see him face every time, she feels like she’s getting to know him more. The words aunt Jee use to describe her son were ‘he will always be the most difficult person in this world to aunt Jee.’ Muey thought to herself and realize they’ve grown a lot these pass months and years together, and the intimate feeling she has developed over the years has become love. Nateerin first met P’Tian when she entered the university. P’Tian and aunt Jee came to congratulate her for passing the entrance exam. Muey knew right away that it was P’Tian no one had to tell her. The feeling she had when she first saw him was that he was more than she imagined. He’s tall, white skin, everything about him was perfect. His long hair was tied back, and it seems like he doesn’t care for his appearance. Many years passed it seems like P’Tian doesn’t remember the young girl who’s the owner of the image that he drew a beginning for. But forget it...he already have the name of being her husband. She always wonder what he’s thinking when he’s staring at her with those cold eyes. Is he angry and annoyed with her? That’s what goes through her head. The more she guess the more it forces her to search. The more she looks at him the more cute he is...the thick hair that’s just washed and wiped to dry is still wet, but he doesn’t care. The person that has the name of being his wife thought of wanting to take a towel and dry his hair so bad. All she can do is think of it because if she wants to continue living, then don’t dare to touch P’Tian when he’s normal! Nateerin can only stare and stare thinking that she doesn’t have to eat she can still live...because just staring at him, her heart is already full. ‘Huey Don’t want to wake up from this dream honestly.’ Tianwat is standing consulting with another architect from the team then there was a report on the land in Burma in no time it’ll be here. “What should we do Tian?” “Well, we’re going to have to destroy everything and redo it. Call the engineer tell them to postpone the work first. We must take action in the meeting.” Tianwat said with stressed voiced. “And the owner of the task won’t say anything about the budget.” A member of the team brought up. “It’s okay I’ll talk to them in a bit. Increase the asset to 2 or 3 percent and it’ll be okay if the cover up will be worthwhile.” The person who has the power decided. Tianwat is in charge of this project. As he was standing speaking in the conference room, Buripong came in and said. “Tian, P’Chayt said if you return to the office, go search for him.” Tianwat nodded and continued with the meeting. No matter how exhausted he is,Tianwat has to go back to the office. He walked into the office and sat himself down on the chair. “Hey Tian, the design I told you to work on how is it going? The person who is straightforward didn’t know where to start, so he told him something else. “It’s starting to come together. I’m going to take it to the next meeting next week.” The person stared at the calm face of Tianwat before taking a deep breath. “Tian, today’s route the elders had ordered it.” He see’s that Tianwat is still and listening calmly without any reaction. “Today there’s a meeting about the stocks. Mr. Tada...Yada’s father wants to see you but I Told him you weren’t here. You were onsite.” This time the person listening started to frown. “About Yada no matter what, she’s the daughter of the stock share. The elders ordered that they don’t want you...to be standoffish towards her too much.” Tianwat stared at him as if he’s stabbing him before answering with a calm and rude voice. “It won’t happen P’Chayt. I came here to work not to do something else.” “I understand. I’m not asking you to do anything like that. Just pretend that you don’t know each other that’s all. Every time you see her, you avoid her. If she ends up feeling upset, it won’t effect much, but she played us and went to tell her father to cancel the stocks.” “I’m sorry P’Chayt, but I can’t help you with this. Yada has a husband already. It won’t be right if we were to do something like that.” “You don’t have to be scared about that Tian. She just divorced her husband. She’s single now. The senior architect told him. With all that’s happening at work and how Yada is acting, he can’t stand it any longer and decided to tell the truth. “She can divorce or marry anyone that’s not my problem...because I’m already married too. “What?!” The person listening cried out. Boxes and papers are scattered everywhere around the new office. Staying at a small company in the outskirts area but now their moving to a high tall building in the middle of the suburbs. The cause is the change in the company. Though the place is messy, they get things done. Everyone doesn’t seem happy because they missed the old place. It was nice and quiet than this looking around people walking in and out from the lobby. It’s weird because their dressed properly and fancy. It made the people who moved here feel pressured. Muey, come eat lunch together.” The friends setup the table and then called her. Nateerin looks at the clock the time flew by fast. she must setup the table late more than the others because the IT department installed her system last. Nateerin looked at the cars passing by then looked at all the skyscrapers which made her uncomfortable. It’s not the same as the old home office that only had 3 floors because it was modified from a house that’s in the garden. Before they were able to go sit outside to work and look at the beautiful view of the garden,

‘And what about this place what can she do to be familiar with it?’ Nateerin and her friends walked into the new lift and looked around it to see what department is which. As they realize there’s a canteen, they were about to stop the lift and get off. Then Nateerin’s eyes stumbled upon a sign that specify the department floor 22, but she didn’t say anything. “We have to hurry and eat someone is going to come at 3 to check. P’Gob told everybody. They quickly set the table and ate in a hurry not caring about how the food taste. After that they went back to the office. It’s 3pm and people from the administration is here. Nateerin doesn’t know if the smile she has on her face in front of her boss and the people from the administration is real or not. She loves her company and her friends so she has to concentrate on working. Though the company’s ‘Hammock’ has been brought down, its been taken over by a big company like TPC until they had to come move to this company. As all the people from the administration left, everyone went to setup their desk. There’s a strange individual remaining who should have left with the administration people, but he’s still peeping around because the young woman that cute and loving. Once he saw her, he fell in love. “Muey that P’Chaat guy is still here.” A voice telling Nateerin to run but it’s too late someone came and stood in front of them. “Muey.” A soft voice said which made Nateerin cringe. “Tonight come and have dinner with me. You can invite your friends as well. It’s my treat.” Nateerin doesn’t like when he speak like that, but she still had to smile and be nice towards him because he’s from TPC. He’s here to watch over the workers. “Please Muey.” He said harassing her to the highest because it’s the first time move to this place. The Hammock employees couldn’t stand it anymore. “What do you see us as doing whatever you want.” A person said. Nateerin saw everyone’s expression they all look like a bomb about to explode. Today, the whole building doesn’t know the truth except for ‘Thoom’ a close friend of hers since high school. They saw each other again when they got hired in the same company. “I can’t go. I’m already married. It’s not right if I go out somewhere with another man.” “N’Muey it’s better not to use that to hide from me.” Chaat said. It doesn’t look like she’d be the type to get married so soon she’s too pure and sweet. Everyone stared and though this young employee is joking with Chaat. “It’s the truth. I’m not lying.” Nateerin said showing the ring on her left finger that Tianwat gave her on their wedding day. Chaat drew back because he never seen it before. “Who is he?” Why didn’t I know about this?” “I got married in Phuket. It’s been over a month since I’ve married.” Nateerin decided to tell the truth. “And what does he do?” Chaat thought of looking down on that Nateerin chose a country person instead of him. it seems like his position isn’t that low and most importantly he should be more than wealthy because he still see’s Nateerin riding a bus to work that means that jerk isn’t smart enough to buy a motorcycle to bring his wife to work. “He’s an architect.” Nateerin replied not anxious or scared but before the situation become bigger than this. A voice of a person that seems powerful called out to him. “Mr. Chaatchai what are you doing here?” His voice is firm and powerful. It made everyone know that someone new is joining the situation, and there’s about 3 to 4 men standing. They look more differently than the administers. The person asked stood with great stance staring at Chaatchai. The others gazed then looked away. “Alright everyone.” P’Gob the eldest brother in Hammock. “I’m going to introduce the architect that’s going to help us with the design. This time everyone’s eyes is on the new person. Even though their all working together for this company in the end their all enemies here. “Let start from Mr. Tian he’s going to be the new section chief for our work.” P’Gob made a gesture with his hands towards the group of men. Though the men who came are all good looking but this tall figure is remarkable mesmerized every eyes of the women employees except one person who’s not feeling excited. Its the interior design department standing with a stressful look on her face because she didn’t think it would stab her underneath like this. His eyes staring straight at Nateerin till her sweat is dripping because she just spit out the top secret live. She’s heated because he told her not to reveal it. The new section chief and is the person Chaatchai thought of looking down on stepped forward and introduced himself with a calm and steady face. “Hi I’m Tianwat.” [\spoiler]
