"Sir, we are not open yet," the bulky bouncer at the entrance of The Vortex said as he stopped Kongpob and Wad from entering. Oak and Em had decided to go around the area, scouting the place in case they found something interesting or suspicious. Being the loyal bodyguard of the young tycoon, no one even questioned when Wad followed Kongpob immediately. While Kongpob was meant to have several security men keeping a watch on him, if he wanted to venture out for something personal, wad would accompany him. Wad had become even more adamant on not letting Kongpob go anywhere alone after a failed attempt by a mentally unstable employee to drug the bossman. By this point even Kongpob had stopped protesting.

When the bouncer stopped Kongpob from entering, Wad moved ahead and handed a few large bills to the man. He smiled a completely scary Wad-like smile, "You sure do know who this is. We just wanted to have a word with a friend who works here. I believe his shift has already begun and we would like to have a small chat before the evening rush."

Kongpob waited silently as the bouncer looked between the two well-dressed men. He sure did recognize the smaller man, and the bills were definitely a welcome. After a minute of consideration, the bouncer gave a small nod and moved aside. Wad whispered something into his ear and pushed his boss ahead before him.

If the employees preparing for the rush were surprised to see guests already there, they didn't say anything. The staff was busy just getting their own things done as manager of each section screamed orders in every-which direction.

Wad looked around, clueless, "Now what? How do we find the person?"

Kongpob sighed. He wished Em would join them soon. He was a better people person than Wad and himself combined. He knew Em could charm some beautiful waitress and find out who Mork was within minutes.

"I think we should sit somewhere so we don't stand out like sore thumbs and wait for Em. He should be able to get us something.."

Wad, who barely talked to his closest of friends, agreed and moved to sit at the regular booth. Em and Oak found them a few minutes later and immediately the assistant to the CEO knew he had his work cut out for him. He realized and Kongpob and Wad were waiting for him to find out and get the 'Mork' person toalk to them. Em shook his head as he stood up and approached a neatly dressed waitress with dirty blond hair that was tied up a French bun. Putting on his most charming smile, Em expertly flirted with the woman, whispering and making her blush. It was a mystery to his friends what he was saying but as they watched the waitress pointed to guy working at the bar section. She waved Em off smiling as she approached the said guy.

Em came back and slumped down beside his friends but before he could say anything a handsome man approached them, wiping his hands on the apron. He was as tall as Em himself, fair skinned, fluffy cheeks and slightly chubby but well-maintained frame.

"Trisha said you were looking for me..?"

Oak nudged Kongpob to speak, "Ermm..yes. You are..Mork?"

The young man frowned, "umm Yes.."

The CEO of KRS brightened up immediately and stood up to shake Mork's hand, "Hello, I am Kongpob Suthiluck.. It's good to meet you. Please have a seat. I was hoping you could answer some of our questions?"

Mork sat down but his face reflected confusion, "I know who you are. You want me to answer..."

Kongpob nodded. "Yes, I wanted to ask..do you know the guy...Okay this is.."
