"Ma, are you going to stay here the whole week?" Prem asked his mother, who's now cooking for their lunch. The woman turned around and shook her head.

"No, i'll go home tomorrow, let me just stay here tonight." She answered.

Prem smiled while walking towards his boyfriend, slumping his ass next to him as he relaxed his head on the older's chest.

"Ao, babe. Sammy is calling." Boun said, handing the younger his cellphone which Prem gladly took it.

"Ohoi!, the birthday girl called, Happy Birthday!"

'Oi, thankyou kha. By the way, are you and p'boun coming?'

"Of course, what time will the party start?"

'Six thirty pm, don't be late! and.. i'm expecting a gift from the both of you, but if you didn't bought it's okay.'

Prem sighed, "Sorry sam, I did—"

'I said it's okayyy, at least you're coming. Alright so babye, i'm still arranging the hall.'

The call ended with Prem smiling, placing the mobile on the table as he eyed his lover and plant a kiss on Boun's forehead. "Boun? Prem?, the food is ready!" They heard the elder called from the kitchen, the couple immediately pull their bodies up.

"Guysss! are you enjoying the party?" Samantha ask the couple who nod their heads with a smile on their faces. Sammy grinned, walking towards their seat and took a sit between them.

"Ao, Sam, you're finally a young adult! you should find boyfriend na." Boun jokes, making the woman pout and sigh hopelessly as she leaned on the table, pulling her birthday gown up. 

"P'Boun, there's no someone interested in me." She says looking at the older man next to him, Prem smiled softly placing his arms on the woman's shoulder. "You can wait right?" He ask, and Sammy nod.

"Of course!" She exclaimed.

The couple shared a look and grinned, "Then, wait for P'Boun's friend to come home this coming saturday, i'll set up a date for you and him!" Prem giggled cutely and faced his bestfriend who's expression puzzled, but soon turned to a happy one upon hearing the latter's words.

"Ooooh, what's his or her name?" she questions excitedly making boun pinch her cheeks.

"His name is Bosston, he's currently in America now but he'll come home this saturday, and about the date for you two, Prem will the one who'll set it up because he's good when it comes to it and gladly, that idiot has been single for twenty two years" Boun replied with a sly smirk.

Samantha chuckles, "Alright, alright. Thankyou in advance if that bosston will court me Ai'Prem, then I should get going na lovely couple, enjoy the party!" And with that she started to walk away, having a little problem with her long pink gown.

Prem faced the older who's now in his phone, "Hia, what time is it?" He ask. Boun checked the time and his eyes widened.

"It's passed midnight babe, should we get going? your mother will be worried." He stated, before sliding
his phone inside his boyfriend's little purse.

Prem sighed, "Yeah she will probably be worried, let's get going but first, we need to take Sammy's permission before leaving or she'll sulk on me." He laughed after saying those words, imagining his bestie's sulky face.

Boun nod and grinned, the two stood up from their seat as they walk to where the birthday celebrant was sat with her other relatives including her mother, father and siblings.

The black-haired man poked sammy's cheeks immediately earning her attention, "Hey, princess. We should get going, it's already midnight." He said, the woman's face is now red from drinking too much wine.

Samantha nod, "Okay, you probably should get going. Thankyou for coming, Ai'Prem and P'Boun 'til next time!" she waved her hands to the couple who just nod and also bid their goodbyes to the other guests they knew.

FAST FORWARD

The couple were now inside the bedroom, when they came home, prem's mother was already asleep on the couch with thick blanket covering her body.

"Hia, are you already asleep? don't sleep yet, i'm not feeling sleepy." The younger mumbled and Boun heard it, he turned around wrapping his arms around Prem as he pulled him closer to his chest.

Prem immediately nuzzle his face on the senior's chest, "Hia, your graduation is approaching." Ye said, his words kind of muffled. Boun lowered his head to face the younger while nodding his head, "Hm, why? do I have a reward after it?" He ask closing his eyes.

The younger blushed when a dirty thought came to his head, but he quickly erased it and shook his head. "No, hia is a big boy. No more reward for hia." He replied.

Boun chuckled, "Okay, hia is going to sleep".

Prem smiled, leaning up to kiss his boyfriend's lips.

"Goodnight, hia."
