Chapter 2 : The generous guy (?

)
What Should I do?...

He’s so handsome…

Although Techno was so emotional after his only brother took his bike, when he stepped
out from his house, looking right to the guy leaning against the car, that was all he could
think.

This kid was so handsome that it was irritating, and it made him so jealous.

Kengkla was so attractive that Techno couldn’t be mad at him.

Kengkla was tall but not thin. He was muscular because of exercises. Although he was in
university uniform, he looked better than Techno, who was in work uniform. Also, that
attractive face was smiling so you could see his charming cuspid. His sharp, vivid eyes
shone brightly with happiness. Anyone couldn’t resist looking back at Kengkla again.

However, what made Kengkla look more gorgeous wasn’t his notable figure leaning
against that beautiful car but…

“Eat up and grow quickly.”

“Chirp, chirp, chirp.”

The way Kengkla tore croissant into small pieces and gave them to the birds chirping
sound was in the air everywhere and the way he was grinning while looking at the birds
pecking at the bread, they showed how generous he was.

And, it definitely could unquestionably make girls fall for him. But, this perfect guy came
to pick me up… me?

Is he a driver and am I a boss?

Techno walked from his house quietly until he was near the luxury car and looked at a
reflection of himself… he was just a tall guy wearing a light color shirt and slacks with a
knapsack that he has been using since his senior year. It was totally different from that
kid who looked excellent in university uniform.

He must be kidding about the boyfriend thing!

Looking at himself again, Techno couldn’t be more relieved because of the difference in
the look, character, fashion of Kengkla, and himself. There was no way that Kengkla
could fall for him. What happened before must be a mistake. Techno was more relieved
than before, so he came closer to Kengkla and intended to act as a nice big brother. But…

“Good morning, P'no!” 

Kengkla saw him first and bounced to stand next to him with a bigger smile. His eyes…
were sparkling like thousand stars.

Shit! Those eyes give me goosebumps!

“G… G… Good morning.”

Do Thai’s always greet like this? Like in the dramas?

Techno chuckled and was shocked when…

“Let me help you P'.” 

Kengkla came closer to him and abruptly grabbed his knapsack full of documents. His
junior smiled widely and also… opened the car door for him!

I’m 23 now, but I never open a car door for any woman. What’s wrong with me? Why do
I need a guy to open a door for me?

“Kla… I think…”

“What? Is everything okay?” 

His broad smile, those eyes full of hope, and the charming cuspid make Techno
softhearted.

Everything he wanted to say was gone. Techno shook his head slowly and walked like an
exhausted guy to the front seat and mumbled.

“You don’t have to pick me up. I can go by myself actually.”

“No P'. Technic told me he will borrow your bike today. I can’t let my ‘boyfriend’ take a
bus.”

B… Bo… Boy… Boyfriend!!!

The speaker smiled happily, but the listener was shocked. Techno’s heart almost stopped
because of that word. Getting in the car, Techno looked at Kengkla shockingly, and it
made his smile disappeared. Kengkla scratched his cheek gently.
“I’m embarrassed if you look at me like this.”

Shit!

Techno couldn’t say anything. He just looked at his junior, but suddenly Kengkla turned
back and said something that could kill Techno.

“A handsome guy like you look at me like this. It’s quite embarrassing.”

Should you check your eyes?

The good-looking guy (in Kengkla’s eyes) was yelling inside. His hand still held the door
tightly but a bit shaking because Techno now realized that he couldn’t handle his
brother’s friend at all. And it seemed his action made Kengkla assume something
because…

KISS.

“!!!”

“Sorry, I can’t help it.”

“Y… You… You… You kiss… kiss me.”

Who would believe that all of a sudden, the guy in front of him would come closer,
kissing him on his lips softly and breaking off? Techno startled, looking at those begging
eyes full of passion when Kengkla whispered with this sweet voice. It made Techno
stutter.

By the time Techno finished his sentence, the person in front of him had stepped back.

“Because you’re so lovely P'.”

What?

Lovely?

Now, the listener wanted to say ‘What the fuck!!!' to that face the most, but what he
could do was taking his seat wearily, looking at the car owner who smiled at him and
closed the door properly. Kengkla placed Techno’s knapsack at the back before walking
to the driver seat.
“I get you breakfast P', butter croissant, and a hot cappuccino. It’s still hot… so you can
have it while I drive you to your office.”

Kengkla grabbed the paper bag with the famous brand stamp and passed to Techno. The
latter one was still stunned because that warm touch was still lingering on his lips.
That touch was soft but warm, and it sent the heat to his cheek, spreading to his whole
face. It allowed a virgin like Techno, who never touched anyone before, to know what a
kiss felt like.

The familiar kiss like it happened before.

“Just now, P' no I’m sorry.” 

Out of the blue, Kengkla apologized so Techno turned to him and saw a guilty face.

“I should be more patient. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, I’m sorry na P'… but
you’re so cute though.”

“Errrr… Umm…” 
Techno could not say anything because he was caught off guard. He couldn’t think
straight while he started freaking out.

Am I handsome? Am I cute? Am I so kissable?... Nic… it must be something wrong with

your friend for sure!

“And I also… think of that night.”

SPIT.

“Hack, hack” 
Techno, sipping coffee to calm himself, choked. Kengkla, sitting next, tried to help him
cleaning but Techno, shaking his head so hard, moved closer to the door, and snatched
tissue paper to close his mouth. His voice was quivering when he said,

“I… I think that we shouldn’t talk about that night… please.” 

His deep voice softened slowly, and it made Kengkla, who was driving, turned pale.

“You loath…”

“No, no, I don’t, but it’s kind of… I think that night I was drunk, I don’t wanna talk about
it, it’s embarrassing.”

When his brother’s friend turned pale, Techno, softhearted again, added quickly, shaking
his head to comfort his junior because he didn’t want to feel guiltier.
I make a good boy crazy for me this much!

That guilt made Techno cannot deny. Techno immediately felt relieved when Kengkla
smiled again, but he was shocked when his junior said

“Don’t worry, that night you were really ‘sexy’ P'”

FALL.

A croissant was dropped from his hand, Techno turned abruptly and looked Kengkla with
his eyes wide open. It made Kengkla chuckle.

“You’re like a kid. Please eat properly”

said Kengkla. He then grabbed the croissant on Techno’s lap and gave it back to him.

However, Techno put it in the bag because he couldn’t have breakfast without choking
anymore when the word ‘sexy’ echoed in his head.

It has been 23 years, and no one calls me handsome or cute before. But, today, I hear
them all, and the worst one is… sexy…!!!

In the end, Techno couldn’t do anything but sat quietly, and let Kengkla take him to his
office without noticing those eyes of the person sitting next to him.
Those burning eyes that intended to ‘eat’ a person beside him.

A wolf-like Kengkla didn’t attack immediately. He would raise and feed his prey to be
ready to eat, then it would be a happy meal.
And what Techno would never know for a long time was this cute guy who loved
animals… was born a carnivore.

…..
 
“Pum… Let’s get some drink tonight?”

“Have a plan since 9’ o clock? Have you finished all the work on your desk?”
After Techno arrived his office, had breakfast without enjoying it and came back to his
sense, his airheaded brain started thinking about how to escape his nice junior.

Techno didn’t know what made Kengkla so blind to be interested in a person like
himself?
As said, Techno was once a captain of his university’s football team, but he always on his
best friend who was a vice-captain. This, Techno might know all the tricks in the field,
but the person who planned everything was his best friend, not him. When Techno
decided not to tell Type about this, what he could think was something weak and made
no sense.

Keep running!

The way to escape Kengkla came from looking at his senior sitting next to him. Techno
asked because he realized that his senior Pum, small women but fearless, got a car. If he
went with her, he would have an excuse for Kengkla. But Pum scolded him immediately
after he asked.

“Don’t worry! I can finish it by this evening.”

“Are you sure? Do you remember that there will be an outside event in the next two
weeks? Everything is done?” 
His senior asked in a serious tone and gave him a fierce look as Techno laughed,
realizing that in the next two weeks, the Ministry of Public Health would open a booth in
an exhibition and they were in charge.

“Of course, I remember. Why shouldn’t I remember that?”

In fact, he already forgot since he has a boyfriend.

CRANK.

“Hey, Techno! I ask you to work, not rest!” 

shouted his senior, as he, hitting his head on the table, raised his head a bit and frowned.
Yesterday his senior still worried about him, but today they seemed to be unconcerned
that Techno was heartbroken for sure.

It was coincident that the girl who worked downstairs, whom Techno targeted, just had a
boyfriend, so everyone felt sorry for him. But they knew that Techno wouldn’t be sad for
so long, he would recover and be back again. That made Techno murmured.

You guys don’t know that there is a good-looking guy who fell for me.

Of course, he couldn’t say it. Why would he tell everyone?

“Let’s get some drink tonight.”

“No, I have a plan.” 

When the senior next to him said no, Techno did not say anything.
Techno still had other seniors to hang out with, thus, all day, he walked around his office,
asking everyone to go out, to get some foods and drink. However, either it was God’s
will, or it was a punishment, everyone’s answers were the same.

“I have a plan today.”

“I will go shopping, there is a flea market today.”

“Sorry, my wife asks me to come home early.”

“I have to pick up my kids at school.”

Those weren’t enough…

“Techno, can we cancel the football match this Wednesday? No one is free that day.”

“What!”

Those words made Techno cry out loudly, looking at the senior who waved and went
back to their office with his mouth open. Techno didn’t know whether he imagines or he
really felt the cold wind blowing at him until he almost collapsed. He wanted to grab his
head with both hands and shout loudly that…

No one is on my side!!!

“No, no, no. Hold on, I can just tell him I have a plan. Don’t need to pick me up. And I
can go shopping instead.” 
Techno, who did nothing today and wasn’t afraid that someone would scold him, snapped
his fingers happily and took out his phone to send a text. He didn’t make a call because
he didn’t want to come around.

[Today you don’t need to pick me up. I’ll go shopping.]

“So easy. Now I can get rid of him.”

Techno smiled happily, placing his cell phone in the bag, whistling, and going back to
work. It never occurred to him why a person who loved sending him messages didn’t
reply at all.
 
“Hello, Techno.”

STOP.
“Who is he? So handsome!”

The after-hours period was the same as the after-school period. It was a happy hour when
you could do whatever you wanted, and it was Techno’s favorite time. He was no
different from a high school student. But today, Techno wanted his working hours to last
until 8 or 9 pm, or he could work through the night because of this handsome guy.

This handsome guy who made everyone stare at him… especially those older ones.
Today, Techno didn’t have his car, so he intended to wait for the bus with his colleagues.
But now, those hard-working and strict senior who never be so energetic were looking at
him with those sweet eyes as if they were seeing the most sexylicious guy.

Of course, that sexylicious guy isn’t me.

“Hello everybody!”

Kengkla greeted everyone immediately and politely wai each of them while calling all of
them as P’.

The senior holding my arm is now 45 years old, and the one you call P' will retire next
year.

Of course, Techno kept that thought with himself. He did not want to get in trouble, so he
gave them an empty smile.

“You can call me ‘Paa’ Don’t be so sweet… By the way, do you know Techno?” 
The senior who allowed Kengkla to call her Paa asked while smiling broadly like a
satellite dish.

Kengkla smiled back politely but so attractive.

“Yes, I do. Techno is my…”

“Bro… brother!!!”

That moment, Techno’s eyes almost bulged out as he interrupted that conversation with a
shout before Kengkla could introduce himself. Kengkla was startled and had a blank
expression, so Techno rushed in and explained to his colleagues hurriedly.

“He… he is my brother.”

“You two look different. What’s your name, boy?”

“My name is K… Keng…”

“Oh! I just realize that we have to go somewhere. Sorry I have to leave… Take care!” 
Techno didn’t want Kengkla to introduce himself and want no one to ask anything. The
guy who just lost his virginity grabbed the shoulder of his brother’s friend, said goodbye
loudly and pushed his junior to the parking. But the good boy still tried to wai everyone.

“So… I have to leave now.”

“Take care… Techno, you should wai your senior like your brother!”

Techno didn’t wait for scolding, he pushed his brother’s friend to walk as fast as possible
while wanting to cry in German (if it was different from Thai) that…

I’ve been working here for a year. Everyone loves me. But you’re just here, and I become
ill-mannered?

While Techno was whining, he didn’t notice the expression of the guy beside him that
became more and more serious until they walked into empty parking.

“Techno.”

“What?” 
Still looking back to check that no one followed them, Techno replied and turned to his
junior.

The face that expressed stress, sadness, and hurt made him freeze, looking at his junior
who was talking in an uncertain tone.

“You don’t want to tell everyone that we’re dating?”

Use your brain, we are both men!

Techno definitely wanted to scold his junior, but the sad face, those dim eyes and those
lips slightly downward like a small frown made him feel sorry.

“I think… What should I say? We are both men, and I also work for the Ministry, so I
don’t want any problem,” 
Techno made an excuse quickly. He thanked himself for being able to come up with the
explanation because the expression of the guy in front of him looked better but still hurt.

The expression that made him anxious.

He’s so cute that I feel guilty when he acts like this.

“I understand… but… I’m sorry… maybe I am too self-centered. I should think more
about your reputation”

HURT.

When Kengkla talked about his reputation, why it was hurt?

My face can’t compare to you. You should worry about yours, not mine!

Techno thought, wanting to grab his head but…

GRAB.

STARTLE.

“Err… Kengkla.” 
Kengkla suddenly hold Techno hands as the older shuddered, looking around. Kengkla
confirmed that,

“Techno, I won’t make you worried. I won’t tell anyone that we’re dating but when we’re
together… we’re a couple, right?” 

I just want to die now!

Techno kept blinking, looking at the Prince of Faculty, who was pleading and asking for
his sympathy. Those hands held him tightly. The deep voice was steady, sincere,
determined… and begging.

The begging gesture plus that striking face made Techno’s heart tremble.

 Of course, you do. Try starting at someone a lot more handsome than yourself!

“Kla… I…”

“Please Techno… we’re lovers, right?... right?”

That anxious face made him nod unintentionally.

SMILE.
As soon as Techno accepted, Kengkla smiled broadly, showing his adorable cuspid. His
eyes dazzlingly shone so Techno felt like he was blinded for a moment. It was like the
aura hit his eyes and he couldn’t say anything.

“I’m so happy. I love you more and more.”

I really want to die.

Techno, confident that his junior would be delusional, not more than 3 days, almost
collapsed. He looked at Kengkla who just confessed his love confidently with those
honest eyes and a sincere smile and started to be emotional.

Could a person who dated no one and never won any girls before resist it?

“Er… Kla…”

“You want to go shopping? I got your message. Today my teacher cancelled the class, so
I came to pick you up. Let’s go shopping and grab something to eat. I haven’t eaten
anything since morning,”
Kengkla said with a smile, and it made his face sweeter.

“Err…”

“Let’s go. What should we have for dinner? Japanese food? Grilled food? Technic told
me you love to have grilled food with your friends.”

Techno didn’t say anything while his junior suggested enthusiastically. The smile and
those eyes made the person who never broke anyone heart only respond,

“Grilled food sounds good for me.”

“Okay!”

After they decided, Kengkla smiled and walked to his car while still naturally holding
Techno’s hand.
Kengkla…
