Jason leaned in his chair, his thoughts racing. When he was in New York, he had spent all his life working at his grandpa's company-the branch at New York. Now that he has come back to Thailand, he keeps working like there's no tomorrow.
The moment he's done with a file, another file comes in place. This went on until he decided to take a break from his self.
Jason went downstairs to make coffee for his tired eyes. He took the elevator instead of the stairs. As the elevator door opened, Jason saw the most beautiful person he had ever seen in his entire life. Jason stood in awe staring at the boy in elevator with adoration in his eyes. It was like his world lit up back. The boy looked so innocent, with fair and smooth skin, silk hair, crystal blue eyes and a nice stature. Jason felt like he met a demigod.
At the expense of looking, the boy broke him out of his trance.
Boy:
Sir, aren't you getting on?
The boy asked with innocence
Jason flinched at the boy's question.
Jason:
I am.
Jason got in the elevator before it closed. Jason stood firm trying not to loose his composure even when he still stole glances of the boy. There was a brief silence in the elevator before Jason finally spoke.
Jason:
So...what are you doing here? Are you here to meet someone?
Jason asked in a friendly manner. Jason wasn't the kind of person to speak with strangers but the boy was too beautiful not to speak to.
The boy turned to Jason to respond
Boy:
No! Actually I'm here for work as a personal secretary. Today's my first day, I hope it goes well.
Jason smiled knowing a demigod was going to be his personal secretary.
Jason:
Ohhh...really? I work here and I think it will go well.
Boy:
Thanks for your mantra.
The boy turned to Jason and gave him a friendly smile.
Jason felt his heart race more than usual. He hadn't felt this way with someone but he liked it.
Just as Jason was about ask the boy for his name, the elevator stopped making them stumble. The lights went off in the elevator.
Jason:
Why this now?
He said with a long sigh. He took out the phone to call for help. As he was about to dail the number, he heard loud panting and gasping. He immediately turned to his side, to see the boy panting and crying heavily. Jason quickly crouched down beside the boy and pulled him in a hug, comforting him. He strokes the boy head with his hands.
Jason:
What's wrong? Are you okay?
Jason asked with a concerned expression
The boy gasped as he talked in between sentences
Boy:
Please... turn on.... the lights.
On hearing the boy's trembling voice, Jason quickly turned the torch of his phone.
Jason:
Is this okay? At least there's little light.
On seeing the light on, the boy's crying died down. Jason strokes the boy's hair, making him feel at peace in his arms.
⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚⌚
The boy just sat on the floor of the elevator, his body stiff. Jason looked at the boy with concern in his face. He never thought his demigod would be afraid of the dark.
Jason also sat beside the boy out of empathy.
Jason:
Help is on the way. Are you okay now?
There was silence. The boy didn't respond.
Jason:
What's your name? I never asked.
Jason stared at the boy waiting for a response.
Boy:
Chan Naravit is my name.
The boy said in a low voice.
Jason felt like things fell apart.
Jason:
You've got a nice name. My name is Jason Tanawit.
Silence.
Some minutes later, electricians came to their rescue. Jason and Chan got out of the elevator. Chan got out of the elevator in a swift motion. He ran for his life. Jason smiled as he watched Chan leave knowing he's still going to meet him the next day.
Jason laid on his bed reminiscing what happened in the elevator and the beauty he met. There was something about Chan that made Jason attracted to him. All his life, people only be friends with him because of money but Chan seemed different. He didn't even seem to give Jason face. Jason couldn't stop thinking about him. Jason stopped his self from thinking about Chan.
Jason:
Snap out of it. He's just a human being.
Just as Jason was thinking about his beloved.
DING DING DING!!!!
He received a message from Pie.
Pie:
Mr. Jason! The new secretary came today but said he didn't seem to see you in your office.
Pie:
I've sent his resume to you. His name is Chan and 21 years old.
Jason smiles when he saw the message. He messaged her back.
Jason:
Oh...really? I've not met him. Well I hope to see him tomorrow because the workload is getting too much.
Pie:
Ok sir!
Jason just left it on read. Jason turned to his side to turn off the lamp light beside his bed. He checked the time and it was still 8pm.
Jason:
Well... I got to sleep. Can't wait to see my angel tomorrow.
He pulled the blanket over his body, it didn't even take to minutes before he dozed off.

Fai, in his bedroom, lay on the bed staring at the ceiling and checking his phone constantly waiting for a call from his baby, Wine.
Fai stood from his bed and paced around in his bedroom. Just as he was waiting, Wine finally called.
Wine:
Hello? Babe I'm sorry. I was busy.
Fai:
Oh, really! I believe you so much. Why are you calling me by 10pm?
Wine:
I'm really sorry, love. I had lots of work to do. I promise to make it up to you.
Fai:
That's your business, not mine. And I don't wanna talk to you.
Wine:
Sweetie, please, naa. What about a candlelight dinner? I promise to make it romantic.
Fai:
No!!!
Wine:
How about shopping with my platinum credit card. Buy what ever you want.
Fai:
No way. I'm also rich, you know that.
Wine:
Then what do you want?
Fai gave a mischievous grin.
Fai:
What about a sexy night? Just both of us. Nobody else. I kinda miss you.
Wine:
Really? Fine! Are you ok now?
Fai:
Yes but I'm still going to take the candlelight dinner and your platinum credit card.
Wine:
I know you wouldn't let it go just like that.
Have you eaten? And why are you not sleeping?
Fai:
You dare to ask me why I'm not sleeping and have not eaten?
He said in an angry voice.
Wine:
Babe, slow it down. I was just asking
Fai:
Then don't ask.
With that Fai cuts the call and angrily goes to bed...
