The Next Day
Arthit was feeling extremely nervous as he made his way to his father's office, last night after his call with Kongpob, he tried to think of ways on how he would deliver his request to his father. He stayed up til two in the morning in his bed thinking of any possible scenarios that might happen.
He stood in front of the large door to his father's office and composed himself. At least I tried, he thought to himself.
The young man knocked three times before someone opened it for him, once he entered he saw the devil smirking as he sat behind his table.
"So son? What brings you here?" his father mockingly said.
"I'm here to talk about the marriage." Arthit said in a firm tone, he needed to sound strong to convince the old man.
"What about it?" raising an eyebrow, his father picked up his pen that was lying on top of his table and started playing with it.
"I'll agree with marrying Namta-"
"See! I knew you'd agree anyways. Why did you have to make such a fuss about it?"
"I'm not yet finished talking father."
"Okay, carry on."
"I'll marry Namtan, only if you let me go for the whole week."
His father stopped for a moment and looked straight to Arthit who stood in front of him like a strong post.
"What do you mean let you go?"
"You will let me go, I'll go spend 7 days with my friends and enjoy my life for once. You don't have to worry about me escaping, because I won't. I'll bring my guards with me if you still have doubts."
"You really thought this through huh?" Arthit's dad said, dropping the pen he held on the table. Arthit just kept his head up and wore a stern expression to let his father know that he's serious about his condition.
"Very well, just make sure you come back here for your wedding. But you have to bring those whom you're going to spend your time with in this house before you leave. If my men reports anything suspicious activities to me when you're with them, I won't think twice about killing every single one of your friends."
"I'll ask them to come here for lunch then." Arthit dismissed himself after that, he wanted to scream in joy but he needed to contain himself. He can't wait to tell Kongpob about the news. He couldn't believe that it actually worked, once he got inside his room he immediately composed a message to send to Kongpob.
📱Arthit🌞:
Kong! It worked 😭 Im so happy
📱Kongpob🌝:
That's great news baby! I'll send you an address where we'll meet. Can't wait to see you😘
📱Arthit🌞:

Btw, he said he has to meet my friends this lunch, so I guess I'm bringing them with me. Can I?
📱Kongpob🌝:
Of course baby, you can bring as many as of them as you want.
📱Arthit🌞:
I actually only have three 👉👈 there's Toota, Knot, and Third. Are you sure it's okay if they come with? I'm actually kinda scared, my dad threatened me, again, that he'll kill them if my guards reports anything suspicious. Will we be okay?
📱Kongpob🌝:
Don't worry about them baby, I asked Khai to bribe both of your guards last night. Hopefully it worked, so I'm sure we'll be just fine.
📱Arthit🌞:
What? You're still with Khai? What about Pete? How are they?
📱Kongpob🌝:
They're doing fine. Pete is actually married now, remember Kao?
📱Arthit🌞:
AKSVDKSVMD WHAT? OMG IM SO HAPPY FOR THEM.
📱Kongpob🌝:
I'll ask them to free a few days on their schedules for this week so we can spend time with them. Would you want that?
📱Arthit🌞:

📱Kongpob🌝:
I love you too baby, I think you better go call your friends now and inform them.
📱Arthit🌞:
Okay okay, see you later😭💓
📱Kongpob🌝:

Arthit puts down his phone for a while and starts rolling on his bed. He was just so happy, he felt like he was a college student again who had a normal life.
He heard his phone vibrate, Kongpob sent him the location where they'll meet this afternoon. He smiled and started calling his three beloved friends through a group call.
*in call*
Arthit: Guys, I need your help.
Third: If we need to bury a body, I'm in.
Arthit: Third, this is serious, you guys know I'm engaged to some random person's sister right?
Knot: Yeah, what about that?
Third: OMG DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE STARTING TO LIKE THAT BITCH EW.
Toota: Third, if you don't shut up I'm burying you alive.
Arthit: Shushh guys, this is serious. You guys also know that I have a connection with Kong again right?
Knot: Yeah.
Arthit: Well I traded my bachelor ass to my father for a week of freedom. And I kinda dragged you guys in it.
Third: You did what! Arthit you're going to get us killed!
Arthit: No, don't worry. I have everything under control. Actually Kongpob, but yeah. We'll be fine. Just come here to my house before lunch and I'll explain everything here in my room okay? My father won't be back from work until lunch, he said he wanted to meet you guys before we go.
Knot: I'm not too sure about this Arthit, but I understand you. We'll be there in about an hour.

Knot: Toota, meet Third in his condo and I'll pick you guys up there. Then let's go to Arthit's house okay?
