New was tired from lack of sleep and standing continuously through out the day with out any breaks doing take after take. It was already getting dark when he grabbed his mobile to check the time. But his eyes went wide when he saw that he is getting a call from Off... he could see numerous missed calls on his notifications and he knew he need to pick the call without any dwelling...

"OFF! What's wrong? Where is Tay? Is he fine?" New asked, he didn't need Off to explain the uneasy feeling he has been feeling through out the afternoon was because of Tay.

"No New, he is not, He was in an accident and now he is in the emergency room being operated upon. He lost a lot of blood and.... New,  I know you guys broke up and are just professional collogues now... but..." Off was saying but New didn't need him to finish.

"Off please,  Send me the address and ask them to prepare everything, they don't need to test me, I got my blood tested only last week, they can  certainly use it... " New said unbothered about the tears running down his cheeks now as he ran to his car. 

The heavy Bangkok traffic never felt this heart wrenching for New as he kept turning every alley he sees and not stop, Because stopping meant a sequence of Tay's smile videos playing in his head and some how the guilt is twisting his insides to a point that he wants to throw up. 

And he did, as soon as he parked the car at the hospital gate he ran to the nearest washroom to throw up, just the thought of Tay in pain has made it difficult for him to function normally. Ignoring the painful goosebumps on his skin, New ran in all the ways to find Off outside the emergency room. 

As soon as Off saw New he hugged him tight... "Thank god New..." he said holding New at a shoulder's distance ... "They will take you in now... Be strong... I will be right here... Remember, you are doing this for Tay, don't loose it okay....." New looked at Off blankly only processing half of what Off is saying. Tay can't be in such a bad condition he thought.

Gun and others are all right there but New is no condition to great or acknowledge anyone as he was ushered into the emergency room. New only got time to silently slip his phone on to Off's hand. He is not gonna pay attention to anyone when Tay is in such need of him. 

New tried hard not to look, not to look at how bad Tay is hurt, his body is already having jolts of ache merely from the imagination of Tay being hurt, if he actually sees it, he is not sure he will be able to bear it. But he had to, coz Tay was right infront of him on the bed, looking more like a pile rather than a person. 

New was not sure what happened to him when his knees gave out, just the idea of Tay suffering has shut the functioning of his brain... "Sir, Are you okay?..." Are the last words new heard as he blacked out.

"Hin...." Tay pouted looking at New reaching out to destroy the neatly arranged dish on his plate... "Please na... the chef has put in a lot of efforts into it, please don't destroy it na..." Tay's cute voice made New smile and want to kiss him badly. 

He didn't look at Tay as he knew that would break his will and excused himself to the restroom. The group of young actors at the table who were busy in engaging with each other didn't even notice Tay following him. But as innocent as Tay was, he only followed New to give him company. New however was not in agreement. As soon as he saw Tay enter the room he shut the door and pinned Tay to the door, Tay stared at him dumbfound. 

"Ouch Hin, what are you doing...?" Tay screeched a little, making sure his voice is not audible outside.

"Food or you?" New asked with his deep seducing voice. Tay frowned at the question. 

"I need to destroy something today, Do you want it to be you or the food?" He asked again impatiently tightening his grip and leaning more into Tay showing his rage.
