Chapter 2
“I thought you said she’ll be here at 6!” Rome snapped down the phone.
“Mr. Nampan, you should know what flights are like and she is coming from England it might have rained
or snowed.” Dar said on the other end of the line.
Rome groaned “Well it would have said on the screens, plus I’m a busy man. I got mothers to see!”
Dar made a hmming sound on the other end.
Rome rolled his eyes and sighed “What does she look like again?”
“I image half English/Thai. You have a sign with her name on it? Yes?”
“Yes” Rome let out a sigh before adding “I’ll see you tomorrow.” Then he put the phone down.
When Rome turned around, he saw a young lady in front of him, which made him jump.
“Mr. Nampan?” she asked
“Yes” he said flatly
“I’m Pinky” she replied, holding her hand out.
Rome didn’t say anything just simply lifted a eye brow.
“You’re waiting for me?”
“You must be mistaken” then nodded to confirm what he was saying.
Pinky frowned at the man standing in front of her.
“You are Mr. Nampan right?” she asked him.
“Yes” he said sharply
“Well I’m Miss. Roberts like it says on your sign” Pinky said nodding toward the sign he still held.
“You can’t be” he whispered.
Pinky knew that she wasn’t meant to have heard that but she can’t help what she hears.
“Why can’t I be?” she asked sharply.
That got his attention and his eyes widen in shock but he did reply “err... umm...”
Pinky knew he wasn’t comfortable but it was his own doing she thought “Yes?”
“You don’t look half English/Thai” he simply said, then straightening his back.
“Then how do I look?” Pinky asked with raised brow, she knew she didn’t look English but more Indian.
“Maybe Thai and Indian”
“Hmm”
Rome straightened his back even more and said “Well then ready to go?”
“Yes”
On the way to the hotel Pinky would be staying and working, it was quiet only simple questions where
asked like Is it nice to be back in Thailand and when was the last time you were here, and Pinky simply awnsered yes is nice to be back, and I was 14 last time I was here that
when I lived here. And Rome simply nodded when she awnsered the questions.
When they got out the car Pinky saw the massive building that her granddad owned and she would be
running.
“Wow this is big, how can someone run a place like this it massive” Pinky said with her jaw still half
dropped in amazement.
“Easily if you know what you’re doing.” Rome replied.
A bit snappy, Pinky thought.
“Well hopefully, your have time to show me around” Pinky said, turning to Rome at smiling up at him.
“Yes I’ll have to show you in the afternoon, I’ve got meetings all afternoon” Rome said sharply and
started walking into the hotel.
Pinky ran up to Rome who was walking fast toward the elevator and then he suddenly stopped which made
Pinky run into him.
When Rome felt Pinky run into him he turned around and quickly gasped her by the shoulders,
they’re eyes locked.
When Rome looked into her eyes he finally noticed that Pinkys eyes where the most beautiful eyes he
had ever seen.
“You alright?” he asked, eyes still looked.
Pinky just simply nodded.
When the elevator pinged opened, Rome quickly broke eye contact and let go of her.
“I think I can find my way to the room, thank you for picking me up and dropping me off. Mr. Nampan” Pinky said and quickly got into the elevator and let the door shut before Rome could say anything.
When the elevator doors shut, Rome let out a loud groan and turned around and walked out the hotel.
When Pinky got to her room, she flopped herself on the bed and let out a loud sigh.
The last time she got feeling like she did when Rome looked at her was with Ken and she felt guilty
feeling those feelings as she loved another.
Then she closed her eye and let her mind drift off.
“2 weeks until school holidays” Pinky declared when she walked into Kens living room with his sister/friend Kwan.
Kwan giggled “I know it exiting right?”
“Yep and well have the whole week to do nothing!” Pinky giggled.
“What you two giggling at?” Ken asked as he walked into the room.
Pinky and Kwan gasped in shock and turned around.
“You scared up P’Ken” Pinky said hand on her heart.
Ken chuckled and said “Kwan mum wants to see you in the kitchen”
Kwan nodded and turned to Pinky “I’ll be back in a minute ok?”
Pinky nodded no taking her eye off Ken.
When Kwan walked out Pinky could hear her giggle, but nether took they’re eyes off each other.
“I passed my basketball class” Pinky suddenly said.
“Really? I’m in shock” Ken said with a chuckle
Pinky giggled and stuck her tongue out and playfully punched him on the arm.
“Ow!” Ken said, pretending to be hurt and putting his arm on his arm.
Pinky lifted her chin playfully “You should be mean then” then she giggled.
When she stopped she looked up at Ken and said “I never really thanked you”
Ken smiled “You don’t need to”
“I want to”
The Pinky went on her tip toes and leaned into give Ken a kiss on the check but Ken turned his head and it landed on his lips.
