Chapter 3: Bangkok, Thailand

After 45 minutes in the traffic and listening to my playlist, we arrived at our destination which is Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Tor: Nong Seph, we are here on your accomodation. Let's go.

Seph: P'Tor, would you mind if I ask you why I have to be on a hotel? I know my dad lives in Bangkok, why I can't live in his house?

Tor: I'm sorry but I also don't have an idea. You can ask him if you meet him.

Seph: I see. Sorry for asking and thank you for helping me this much. What should I do next? P'Tor?

Tor: You need to take some rest first and please prepare before 8 pm, you will have a dinner with your Uncle Ped and his family.

Seph: Can you give me a little background about them? I need to remember something about them and their names since we will bee meeting for the first time.

Tor: Okay. Your Uncle Ped is the a CEO of the Siam Commercial Bank. His company is one of the leading bank on Thailand. His wife, your Aunt Violene is a full pledge house wife and also one of the powerful woman in Thailand, she was feature in different magazines.

Seph: In short, they are rich (Seph sigh).

Tor: Yes, they are. They have two kids. Their son, Tee is still in college his major is Economics. He is a star football player in University of Bangkok. Their daughter, Jane is still in Grade 10, she is a very popular model and fashion icon. She also into music and excels on her studying.

Seph: Sh*t, how I can socialize with them. I'm not on their level.

Tor: I know it's a lot of information but you should know this basic information about them so you can start a conversation with them. Also, please watch your language. They are very formal people, they can scold you if you still using your expressions.

Seph: I see and sorry about my expressions.

Tor: It's okay. By the way, this is Copter. He will personally accompany you from here.

Copter: Sawatdee krab. Welcome to our hotel.

Tor: Please follow Copter he will guide you on your room.

Seph: Khap kun na krab, P.

Copter: This way please.

I follow Copter, we are now on the elevator with the bell boy who is carrying my luggage. Copter presses 17th floor.  He gave me the key card of my room. When we arrived at my room he open it with a master key card and the bell boy move my things inside. The room is superb and by looking at it I can say it was an expensive room. It has a staircase that leads to master bedroom and when you come in you will see the living room on the left and the kitchen to the right. I think it's a bit much for a hotel room.

Copter: This will be your room, Tao Kae Noi. Please enjoy your stay here on our hotel.

Seph: You can call me Seph, P. Khap kun Krab.

I try to unpack some things on my luggage and hit the shower. I still don't know what is happening now. I thought my dad is just a simple persom working for a big company here in Thailand but it maybe different from what I think of since they call me young master and I got this hotel room which I think is an expensive one. After I finished taking a shower, I lay down on the bed and try to make a sleep, I set my time now on Bangkok's time. It's still 5 hours before 8 pm, I will just set my alarm by 7 pm.

….................................

I wake up by a knock on the door on my bed room. I look at my phone and it's just 6 pm. I try to force myself to stand up and open the door. When I open the door, I see someone who is very good looking guy, the clean haircut, his eyes are sparkling, his nose is very prominent and his lips is red, his teeth is also perfect and his smile is so dreaming.

Tee: Watdee, Seph. I'm Tee. I am your cousin.

Seph: Oh, sorry if I keep you waiting.

I try to give my hand for shakehands but he looks at me with a confusing eyes.

Seph: Shakehands, this is how we greet back in Manila.

Tee give me his hands and shake my hand.

Tee: I see. Nice meeting you.

Seph. Nice meeting you too, P' Tee.

Tee: By the way, I am here to help you get dressed. We need to be on our formal wear later. Don't worry I already call our family stylist. P' Arm will be here anytime soon. He will bring some clothes that we can choose to wear for the dinner.

Seph: Khap kun na Krap, P.

Tee: No worries, you are in good hand. I also wanted to meet you before the dinner so we can talk. I don't want you to feel awkward if you all meet us on the same time.

Seph: Thank you so much, P. It will be a great help for me and thank you for thinking this way.

Tee: You're very much welcome, Nong Seph.

We talked a lot of things about our college life and how different we live our lives until P' Arm arrived and help us with our clothes and what to wear. P' Arm is very detailed and focus on it, no wonder he is on this field. We have a lot of fun trying suits and mix and match. All the suits are good and uses a high quality material. At the end, my suit is black, with a polo inside which is color maroon while P' Tee use a black suit with white polo inside. Actually, anything looks good at him. Even wearing just a plain white shirt and a ripped jeans when he arrived at my hotel room.

Arm: Everything looks good on you, Tee and Seph. No wonder, you are from the same blood line.

Tee: I know that I am handsome.

Seph: We know that.

We laughed at Tee like what he said is a joke.

.................................

Tor arrived and picked us so we can go to the dinner. When we leave on the hotel ptoperty there are 2 cars left and right that are following us and a motorcycle infron of us leading the way. I ask Tee about it, he just smile and says bodyguards. I finally realized that my dad's family wasn't normal and they are crazy rich people. I still can't believe it. I try to open my phone and check my messenger. I message my mom and Vin that I am going to a dinner to meet dad's family and about their social status here in Thailand. Vin is still offline but mom, reply to me we talk for a while and she said good luck to me. I hope everything will be okay on the dinner. I hope I meet my dad on the dinner.
