Volume 1 Chapter 33 (2/2)
”Nong'Yo just replied to my message... So cute.”
”You guys are now officially a couple? Oooh - got it all done through LINE... So tacky!” Ai'Kit teased.
”No... Not yet.”
”What are you waiting for then? Go grab your chance, dude!”
I smirked. ”Just wait and see.”
”Whatever.”
”Oh come on. I wouldn't chase him right away. I have to do it one at a time.”
As long as I know that his heart beats for me the same as I do for him, it will no longer be difficult to take the next move.
I wouldn't let any moment pa.s.s by without doing nothing just what I did back in High School.
Trust me... I won't let Nong'Yo be single that long.

Our car arrives a bit faster than the bus so we made it on time to see the kids get off while the rest help the others carry their luggage one by one. I don't need to waste my time looking for my Baby'Yo. (I like coming up with nicknames for him deep within my heart). s.h.i.+t! I'm so excited. If we meet, how am I supposed to conduct myself?
”P'Pha, you still haven't left yet kha?” Nong'Kuk'Kai greets me with a smile. Beam and Kit threw meaningful looks at each other then takes a step back to let us talk comfortably. I'll kick your a.s.ses later, you traitors! ”Do you want to go have dinner with me?”
”Don't you have to go with your friends, Nong'Sai and the other Nong?” I ask dryly while craning my neck around in search for Forth's car.
”Err...r. ” Nong really chooses the wrong time to talk to me. ”Can't I go with P'Pha?”
What the f.u.c.k is that flirting voice she's using while talking to me? I turn to look at my friends for help but they hurried picking up their sheets pretending to be studying. These idiots really love me for sure!
But when it comes to me and Nong'Yo, they wouldn't hesitate to b.u.t.t in. Perhaps try to help me get out with this one too, maybe?

Thank goodness Forth's car has arrived. ”I'm sorry khrub... I have to go.” I walk towards the car hurriedly forgetting my embarra.s.sment and all. I have to see Nong'Yo's face. Forth was the first one to get out of the car with a surprised and confused look the moment he sees me.
”Where's Nong'Yo?”
”Yo is ...” Ming points at the back seat but... ”Awh... Stupid 'Yo.”
He's gone. Why is he running away from me? Does he think we're playing hide and sick or something?
”Where are u going?” It's so easy to run after him... Didn't actually take that long.

f.u.c.k!!! His face and ears are all red.
I couldn't hold my laughter at all. ”Hahahah!”
”Shut up!” He must be feeling so embarra.s.sed right now. He's trying to be upset but its kind'a funny and makes him look cute instead. I s.n.a.t.c.hed his luggage from his hand to hold it for him.
”Calm down.”
”I said shut up.”
”Still mad at me?”
”Of course!” He yells but it doesn't seem serious though. I know he'll forgive me soon. ”Why didn't you tell me from the start? You knew all along. f.u.c.k you!”
”How would I know that you're still into me?”
”f.u.c.k you.” Thud! He kicks right at one of my s.h.i.+ns.
f.u.c.k!!! That hurts. Come on!!!
”Ouch! You kicked me.” He's slender but why is his kick so powerful?
”You deserve it.”
”I know. It's my fault... P' is sorry.” I raise both hands up in the air.
”s.h.i.+t P'... I don't get it. Why should I always be the one to say it first? It's so embarra.s.sing.” He complains or more like he babbles, making me show him my soft smile. ”You're even laughing about this!” He points his finger at me like I'm some kind of a horrible monster.
”I don't know.” I shrug.
”Man!” Nong'Yo makes a troubled face.
”Calm down.”
”No. Give me back my luggage.” He tries to s.n.a.t.c.h it from my hand.
”Not gonna happen.” I said, raising it high out of his reach. ”Let's get something to eat.” I even took the liberty of holding his shoulders urging him to come with me.
”Not going.” Nong'Yo tries to slip away, but too late. I've already grabbed his arms tight.
”Somebody is still P's servant.”
This baby boy couldn't argue with me anymore. All he can do is make a resentful and begrudging face at me with his cheeks turning crimson red. He looks so adorable with that face. It's like he's so angry yet so embarra.s.sed at the same time.
What have I done to him? Poor boy...
”It's gonna be P's treat.” Hopefully this helps to make him feel better.
...or maybe not? I begin to feel unsure. His face may look red but I couldn't read what he feels right now with that sour face he's wearing.
”Roasted Duck at MK (restaurant)?”
Nah... He's fine. I don't think I'm gonna have a problem with that.

Oh, Baby... You must be starving since you eat a lot. Now he's down to the second plateful of a large size Roasted Duck. Wow. Where did he hide all those food he just ate, huh?
”Why aren't you eating anything?” Nong'Yo asks me while the chopsticks are still in his mouth.
”I'm already full.” Call it cheesy or what not but just seeing my little boy eating makes me already full. I'm so happy.
”I'll surely get fat...” He looks worried for a while. ”Well... Forget it... I don't care.”
”You look a lot better than you were in High School. You must have been taking good care of yourself for all these years.
”For whom?”
f.u.c.k! Seriously?
”Is it because of P'?”
”Yeah...” He talks while eating.
I smiled again thinking about what I just learned.
”P' smiles more often than you used to be.”
”I really don't smile that often.”
”I know.” Nong'Yo speaks ”But quite a lot often now.”
”For whom?”
I threw his question back at him. It makes Nong'Yo stops eating and stare at me while I'm also doing the same thing to him.”
”Shhhh...” his voice sounds like he's in distress. ”Stop scattering your charm everywhere.”
”What?”
”Nothing.”
”It's only for you.”
”Are you sure?” Nong'Yo points at me with his chopsticks. ”Don't make me rake the ashes of what you did during the past few days.”
”?”
”You're always kind and generous to everyone.”
”Haven't you realized that the way I'm treating you is more different compared to the others?”
Nong'Yo is stunted a bit like he's probably thinking and may have finally noticed it too.
”Trust P'...”
I keep staring at him while he keeps avoiding my eyes.
”Are you chasing after Yo now?” He mumbles while stirring his veggie noodles in a bowl with a trembling state.
I smile before saying it with a loud and clear voice.
”Do you even have to ask?”
