CHAPTER 2: Tonkla

At the office all workers were already at their work spot, he quickly rushed over to his chair making a light whimp of sigh relieved that he was not seen by "Tonkla" the team leader but actually speaking of the devil and here he comes.

" why are you late Teerak?" the flush of adrenaline rushed through him as he jumped from his sit.

He started stuttering " s—sir, i —I'm sorry sir, i woke up late!" he said with his head bowed down and his hands at the side of his laps which shows his sincere apology for his mistakes.

"everytime you always have excuses every danmed fucking time, you feeble of a thing"

That word "Feeble" struck him really hard sinking into his heart like that of a ship sinking its journey to the bottom of the sea.

His eyes went blank and devastated with what he heard, recalling his years of hearing that same word.

He got bullied during kindergarton, high school and Univetsity and now in the office he can't seem to run from it.

"I'm.....sorry sir..." he said with his head buried on his shoulders

" sorry for your feebleness" the team leader said and stormed out.

Everybody was afraid because once Tonkla is angry all hell is bent to let loose.

"mmhmm" Teerak made a Whimpy sound and sat on his chair with his eyes soggy with emotions.

"Teerak" his colleague Mundmee who also was his best and child hood friend called.

"are you okay" she asked with concern in her eyes

"mmmm, I'm fyn, don't worry it's just a word it won't kill me ..... don't worry..." he said trying to hide the pain in his eyes with a smile.

He looked back at his monitor and starred at it with intense emotional eyes.

After work hours he headed to the bus station with his best friend while she tried lightning up the mood.

" heeyyy!!!!! Teerak what are you doing during the weekend, are you free tomorrow any vacations or shooping or dates i mean it's........" she was caught off by Teerak.

"Mundmee….. I'm not going any where and can you stop the date thing I'm not intetested and obviously no vacations okay, I'm just gonna stay at home and sleee........" his phone made a beep notification sound and he was checking the message.

"hhmmm, what a buzz killer" Mundmee muttered.

"No no no no......." Teerak yeld as he was gazing at his phone Mundmee asked and Teerak showed her the phone

" hhhaaaa!! you're fired... why.... You didn’t do anything" she asked angrily and was about to storm back to the office but Teerak drew her back.

"are you crazy do you also want to get fired too" he said

"it's injustice they can't fire you just because you came late" she was about to go again but Teerak stopped her.

" no need nobody is at the office now its already late and I'm sure everybody must have gone by now including the manager" he said.

“oooh yea… true its already late, are you okay, I'm sorry Teerak but i promise I'll visit you every weekend okay?"

"fyn, but don't snore in my ears and kick me off the bed?"

mundmee frowned and made an attempt to kick him but he dogged it and told her

" okay no playing around it's time to go, its late already" he told her

"mmm, no problem I'm already at the bus" she was about to leave but turned back ran and hugged her best friend.

" promise you'll be okay" she said pointing out her little red pinky finger.

"promise, and make sure you take care of your self and be careful" he said knotting his pinky finger to hers and also mutter to her in a low tone

" and also try to have a boyfriend its not good for a girl been single at this age, you might age too and get wrinkles on you face"

he laughed and she tried to hit him again which he actually dogged.

"I'm not old and a matter of fact you will age and get wrinkles too!!!!" she said with a puffy eye and lips.

" well you will because I'm younger than you big sis" he said

She looked at him with a soft and tender eyes

"I’m really going now… bye" she said

"Bye——- bye" Teerak said.

They hugged each other and Mundmee was the first to go making a long wave of goodbye from the bus to Teerak who was waiting for his own bus.

He stopped waving untill she was out of site.
