FALLIN' ALL IN YOU (Completed)

Chapter 116

"Kam, don't get too close to the water!" Arthit shouts to make sure Kamron can hear him.

Even though Kamron has on a life vest and he's only a stone's throw away, he doesn't trust the waves. They're only here to play in the sand and dip their feet in the water. When Arthit asked what Kamron wanted to do this morning, the child had no requests. They have the whole day together so he wanted to take Kamron somewhere fun. So he asked Luke what's a fun place to take a child and Luke presented the most horrifying option in the whole world to Arthit.

The freaking amusement park. Arthit absolutely loathes the insane crowd, the horrendous lines, the obnoxiously loud kids, the overpriced junk food, and above all, the terrifying rides. Even as a kid he only liked the games at the amusement park. He remembers how his father forced him to go on roller coaster rides one after another in an attempt to toughen him up. His father didn't care that he's afraid of heights. His father didn't care that he was in tears and dragging his feet. His father would say things like 'be a man for God's sake, it's only a damn ride.' Arthit remembers emptying his stomach the instant he got off his first loopy roller coaster ride. Till this day, just the thought of getting on a roller coaster can make him nauseous.

Arthit immediately passed on that idea saying it's too hot and crowded. Luke only smirked as if he couldn't tell there's more to it just by the panicked look on Arthit's face, and of course Luke knows Arthit's fear of heights, but there are also kiddie rides that barely leave the ground. Oh well, it's not like Luke enjoys being in the crowd either. So he offered another idea. The beach.

Kamron's eyes immediately sparkled upon hearing the word beach. So it was settled that they would go to a beach. However, since Kongpob took the helicopter to Chiang Mai with Thak, they can only drive. Luke suggested going to the closest beach in Bang Saen. It's only about an hour and a half away from Bangkok. The beach and its sand there are definitely not as beautiful as Phuket or Pattaya, but it's a lot closer for a day trip and it's not as tourist-packed. So Bang Saen it is.

"So how do you like playing dad?" Luke takes a sip of his iced tea leaning back with his feet in the sand. They are currently sitting on lounge chairs under umbrella shades. He would love to be drinking an ice-cold beer right about now but too bad he's on duty.

"I don't know, but Kamron is a nice kid. So far he's been pretty easy. He's only four but he's very smart and mature. I bet he can beat you in chess." Arthit chuckles watching Popeye knock a laughing Kamron down in the sand. Arthit swears someone has swapped his dog. His Popeye has never been this active. The dog that doesn't even want to go out for his walks is now chasing a four year old around. Simply unbelievable!

"No way! Just because you suck, don't underestimate my skills."

Arthit only laughs at that. It's probably true. He's never been very good at chess. "Do you like kids?"
