10. I am possessive of my girl

Singto questions seriously, "Gammu! Be serious. What type of clothes do you both wear?"

Gammon bites down a chuckle and says, "Sorry, sorry! My friend is wearing a pink T-Shirt and brown shorts."

"Okay!" Singto says with a sigh of relief. And his heart calms by knowing she is not Chut-Thai girl. But his heart is saying the voice of that girl and this girl are the same.

Jack and Sophia check out the hotel. They book a room in a five-star hotel where the customer's information is secured. Jack tries again to call Khun Da by phone. The phone still says out of the coverage area. As they both were exhausted they fell asleep.

Gammon's mind is in a dilemma whether he has to send Emma safely from here. His heart is telling him to spend some more time with her. Because her life is in danger he says caringly, "Those thugs are at the exit. So you just go away from the entrance. But please be careful while going away. Cars can hit you, my friend."

Emma is touched by Gammon's concern. She holds onto his arm and looks up at him with her round glimmering eyes. Gammon finds himself lost for words for the first time.

"It's OK, Chingu."

"Chingu???" Gammon's eyebrows lift in confusion.

"Chingu means friend in Korean," Emma explains.

"Are you from Korea?" Gammon asks curiously.

"Nope! I am Thai but I grew up in New York," Emma said and continued, "Thanks," with a hug.

He felt a pang of pain deep inside him. He didn't expect that within a short span of time he would be attached to her. He can't hold her and ask her to stay with him. He looks at Sam and his people. What mattered more was her safety. All he can say is, "Chingu, be careful. Can I have your phone number?".

Emma says, "Oh! Sorry! My New York number doesn't work here and I didn't remember my Thai number as I took that number a week ago."

He questions in anxiety, "Didn't you have a phone now?". Gammon thinks 'God! How can I meet her again, If I didn't have her number?'

"I have. But because of that punk 'Mr. What' I lost it. I fell down and my phone broke into pieces." Emma shows her broken phone to Gammon.

Just as she is going to walk away, he says "You can take my phone, so you can contact your family members. I will take my phone back tomorrow. I will call you tomorrow and you can hand over the phone at your safe place."

Warnings of giving away possessions to strangers flash in his mind but his ears fall deaf to them. He believes deep in his heart that Emma will not betray his trust. He can see that genuineness in her eyes.

"Okay, thank you," she says appreciatively. She takes his phone and goes away through the entrance.

After reaching the home, Khun Da presses the ON button of her phone. She sees 80 missed calls from Jack. Her heart drops at the barrage of calls. She calls his number to call him back. Because the battery is low, Jack's phone is dead. He is still dead asleep. When Jack doesn't answer the call, Khun Da thinks he may be busy and decides to call him later.

*************************

Singto's car came through the entrance. When Emma saw a car coming towards her, she hid behind a pillar to not get hit by the car. As she hid behind the pillar, Singto didn't see her.

Singto calls Gammon. Emma answers the call. "Hello."

Singto's mind says it is the same voice. But he didn't like to listen to his mind anymore. As it is still stuck with Chut-Thai girl.

Singto asks "Who are you? Why do you have my brother's phone?"

"Khun! I am his friend. He has given his phone to help me.", answers Emma calmly.

Anger boils up in Singto's mind thinking that she left his brother in danger. "Oh! You left my brother to those thugs and you're running away? What a jerk you are. Just tell me where my brother is?"

Emma tries to explain to him, "Khun! You're misunderstanding me? Your brother is a good person. He is the first person that I liked...."

Emma was going to say "I liked in Pattaya. And he himself told me to run away". But Singto cuts her words when he hears 'the first person I liked'.

"Who are you to like my brother? " Singto interrupted harshly.

When she heard that the other person was thinking narrowly about her, she cut the call angrily. She hates judgmental people who jump to conclusions most of all.

Emma thought "Such a difference both brothers have. One is narrow-minded and another one is kind-hearted. If I ever want a person to be my friend in Pattaya, I will choose my 'Chingu', not an arrogant fellow like Mr. What. Ah! Why am I thinking about Mr. What?"

Emma immediately comes out of her daze of thoughts when she hears the phone ring.

Emma doesn't pick up. She refuses to talk with a person who misunderstood her. She sends a message to Singto that his Chingu is at B - block and behind the car number SK 0062. Singto reached the B- block parking area.

When Sam saw Singto from afar, he immediately called his men to come out. He doesn't want to be seen by Singto while he is with thugs. Sam doesn't want to know by Singto that he has some tie-ups with those kinds of people.

When Gammon sees the thugs going away and Singto coming to his rescue, he comes out of his hiding spot. When Singto saw Gammon, he was immediately met with a hug.

"Bro, thank you very much," Gammon thanked profusely. He was glad to finally be safe from the thugs. Singto patted his back.

"It's OK! But why are you helping a jerk who can't be loyal?"

"Oh! Bro! Whom are you saying is a jerk? She is my girlfriend! I am very possessive with my girlfriend."
