CHAPTER - 2

When Prem was reaching for the bottle on the table, he notices a mobile phone lying beside it which looked familiar. Prem instantly realizes that it's his phone and wonders about the appearance of it in Boun's cabin.

Prem: ,,Why is my phone lying here in Boun's cabin?"

Prem stands near the table trying to remember and he suddenly remembers Mew's words that the stranger at the airport could be Boun: ,,Or could it be real what Mew said?"

Prem scratches his head and tries to re-picture the person at the airport : ,,Damn Shia! The person at the airport indeed was a blonde guy with a man bun and had piercings as well. It really was Boun!"

Prem: ,,Ai Haa! He was purposefully trying to mock me by acting as if he doesn't know me."

The photo section gets over and Boun goes to the cabin to take a rest. When Boun enters the cabin he sees Prem standing near the table dissolved in his thoughts. Boun silently walks towards Prem and puts his hand on the table where Prem is standing at.

Prem sees two hands reaching the table.

He gets scared and shouts: ,,Shiaaa! Who is it?"

Boun doesn't respond.

Suddenly Prem starts getting nervous and doesn't turn back: ,,Please don't do anything to me. I swear, I won't curse anyone from now on. Please disappear, pleaseeee!"

He closes his eyes and turns around. His nose touches Boun's nose and their eyes meet. Prem gets drawn in by Boun's eyes.

Prem thinks: ,,Why are his eyes sparkling like the stars? It's just so beautiful. It makes me want to get closer and know more about him."

Boun's heart beat races and he thinks: ,,Why is my heart beating faster? Why am I feeling so weak and excited at the same time? Who is he? And why does he look so interesting? But after all.....he is just a boy."

Then the older one suddenly comes back to reality. He grabs the phone and steps one way back from Prem.

Boun looks at a scared Prem and starts laughing: ,,Ai Nong! Why are you such a scary cat?"

But Prem gets angry: ,,Ai Hia! Stop laughing. Why didn't you respond when I asked who it was?"

Boun controls his laugh: ,,Aww, don't be angry, I was just teasing you."

Prem is scrowling: ,,Give me back my phone."

Boun lifts the phone upward to tease Prem again.

Boun: ,,Ai Nong! Take it if you want."

Prem gets annoyed and shouts: ,,Shiaa Pi! Give it back I said."

Then Prem moves closer, trying to grab the phone but Boun continues to tease him.

Boun: ,,Take, take."

Anong goes to the cabin to find Boun and gets irritated by seeing Prem playing around with him.

Anong: ,,Hey assistant! Don't you know how to behave in front of people? Why are you being so noisy? Don't you have any work to do?"

Prem feels hurt and doesn't respond as he just recognizes his status of being just an assistant. Boun notices Prem's smile fading away because of Anong's offensive words and thus decides to respond to her.

Boun: ,,Anong, Prem is my assistant and I will decide how my assistant should behave. So, no one has the right to order or scold him other than me."

Prem smiles by the unexpected respond from Boun.

Anong: ,,Aww, sorry P'Boun. Please don't be angry, I just thought he was making you feel uncomfortable. It's okay if you are close with him."

While Miss Yi walks into the cabin, she notices Anong standing and whispers to her ears: ,,Ask Boun out for lunch."

Anong: ,,P'Boun there is a good restaurant nearby let's go and have lunch over there."

Boun: ,,Well, I am sorry, Anong! I need to have some private conversation with my new assistant. So, he will accompany me for lunch"

Prem gives Boun a confused look.

Boun smiles and asks Prem: ,,Aren't you coming?"

Prem: ,,Eehhhhh..... Yah, Coming!"

Both of them leaves the cabin and walks towards the car parking area. Mr.Kiet notices Boun and Prem leaving and hurries towards them.

When Boun sees Mr.Kiet waiting for them in front of the car, he whispers to him: ,,Let me have lunch alone with my new assistant. Let's see if he is eligible to be my assistant."

Mr Kiet feels nervous: ,,Yah, why not? Sure, you can. But try not to be hard."

Then Mr.Kiet goes back to the set.

Prem stands near the car and looks at Boun.

Prem: ,,P'Boun, thank you for supporting me earlier in front of Anong."

Boun: ,,Well, if you really want to thank me, then come and have lunch with me."

Prem decides not to get tangled with Boun: ,,Thanks Pi! But I don't want to disturb you anymore. I'll take a taxi and eat in a nearby restaurant."

Boun decides to pull out a play: ,,But, I don't know any restaurant around here. Moreover, I don't like to eat alone."

Prem finally gives up: ,,Fine, fine. I'll come."

Boun smirks: ,,Good boy! Don't play too hard to get."

Then he enters the car. Prem opens the back door and gets inside.

Boun: ,,Hey, Lay's boy! What are you doing?"

Prem: ,,Shia Pi! Why Lay's boy?"

Boun: It's because you like to likes eat Lay's. So, I will call you Lay's boy from now on. It's easier to remember and only two of us know about it."

Prem: ,,Ai Pi! This is way too much, stop getting on my nerves."

Boun: ,,Why are you sitting in the back? Come to the front seat. Do you want me to look like your driver?"

Prem looks away from Boun: ,,No! I won't sit in the front seat."

Boun takes out Prem's phone and holds it outside the window.

Boun: ,,Hey, Lay's boy! If you want your phone come to the front."

Prem: ,,Hia! Okay, okay. I'll come."

Prem gets seated in the front seat. Boun shows off a satisfied smile and starts the car.He notices Prem not putting on his seatbelt and glances at him.

Prem: ,,What now, P'Boun?"

Boun: ,,Are you waiting for me to put on your seat belt like in a drama?"

Prem: ,,Damn Pi! No!"

Boun: ,,Aww! You keep cursing me all the time."

Prem: ,,Cause you asks for it all the time."

Prem smiles and puts his seatbelt on. On the way Boun receives the notification about the restaurant location from Mr.Kiet. When they reaches it, both get out of the car and enter the restaurant. After having a look around Prem understands that Boun has taken him to a luxurious restaurant.

Prem: ,,P'Boun, this is an expensive restaurant. Why did you take me to here?"

Boun: ,,Where else where should i have to go instead ? Do you expect me to go to a restaurant full of people?"

Prem scratches his head: ,,Oh! I forgot about that. But, how did you know about this one?"

Boun: ,,P'Kiet messaged me on the way."

Prem: ,,So, you were purposefully pulling up excuses to make me come along?"

Boun rolls his eyes: ,,Why do you keep asking so many things?"

Boun and Prem find a suitable table in the corner and get seated.

Prem goes through the menu: ,,Ai P'Boun! How will I order anything to eat? It's way too expensive."

Boun: ,,You can choose anything, it's on my behalf."

Prem: ,,But I don't like to hold debts to anyone."

Boun grinned: ,,Who said it's for free? You will have to treat me later."

Prem murmures: ,,That was something I expected you to say."

The waiter arrives and both of them orders the food.

Prem recalls about his phone with Boun: ,,Now, please give me back my phone."

Boun hands over the phone and asks about the guy ( Mew ) who called last night: ,,Who is Mew? Are you both very close?"

Prem: ,,Mew is my friend, Yah, we are close enough and I currently live in his house."

Boun doesn't full accept Mew to be Prem's friend and gets disturbed by the point that they are living in the same house.

Prem suddenly remembers about the airport incident: ,,Wait, why did you act as if you didn't know me when P'Kiet introduced me to you?"

Boun lifts one eyebrow: ,,Just wanted to play around."

Prem: ,,Ai Hia! You are just toying with me all the time."

Boun: ,,It's because you look cute when you are annoyed." And it's my wish to decide how to treat my assistant."

Prem's anger spiked up: ,,But, I am not your slave."

Boun bend towards Prem and touches his hair. Prem's body lowers and weakens unable to resist Boun's hands.

Prem regains his senses and pushes Boun away: ,,Ai Hia, Boun! Don't touch my hair, I am not a child."

Boun whispers in Prem's ears: ,,Chill, Lay's boy! Don't get angry, It'll make me more interested in you."

Prem feels his range turning to happiness over those words. The food arrives at the table and both of them starting eating.

Boun takes out his phone: ,,Hey, Lay's boy! I am adding you to my We Chat."

Prem: ,,Ai P'Boun, for what?"

Boun: ,,Of course, to message you. You are my assistant, so I always need to keep in touch with you ."

Prem sighs and nods as a yes.

After finishing the food both of them head out and drive back to the shooting location. They reache the location and the director decides to call the day off. Boun gets ready to head back and he plans to give Prem a ride back home. He goes to look for Prem and sees him being picked up by a guy ( Mew ). Boun leaves being upset and gets into the car with Mr.Kiet instead.

Prem and Mew arrive back home. They get inside and settle down.

Prem: ,,Ai Mew, I don't want to go for work anymore. That Boun is a soo annoying, he always gives me that devil smile and loves to make fun of me. Tell me what should I do? Help me please, Mew."

Mew: ,,It's said that if "A" likes to annoy constantly "B", "A" is in love with "B". And you have been talking only about Boun all the way back home. Of course, there were so many others on the set but you mentioned about no one else."

Prem's eyes widened: ,,Shia Mew! Are you crazy like him? He is just trying to have fun by teasing me. And i just kept talking about him because I am way too stressed."

Mew: ,,Fine, Nong! Keep fighting, I am ready to stand against superstar Boun for my friend."

Prem: ,,That doesnt really suit you. You are already way too biased by him."

Mew runs across to hug Prem: ,,Oooh my friend I love you soo much."

But Prem runs away from Mew: ,,Ai Nong! Stop saying that, it sounds so gross."

Later at the night Mew and Prem have their dinner and Prem goes to sleep. He lies on the bed and tries to sleep. But everytime he closes his eyes, Boun's eyes appear in his mind.

Meanwhile, Boun is lying on his bed thinking about Prem. He thinks about the moment when his heartbeat went crazy while he was so close to him.

Boun thinks: ,,What is so special about him? Why am I so interested in him? It's been only a few hours and I already miss him. But why is it a boy?"
