Chapter 27: Deal

Third person POV

It was saturday night, Nanon came to their usual 'Black gift' bar. It was not his first time, but he felt like it. Because it was the first time he came after Chimon saw him hugging Puimek that night. He can't help but remember the events happened here.

"Hey Nano! You are looking like its your first time here?" Chimon approached him smiling wide. "Nothing" Nanon replied showing his dimpled smile.

"Heyyyy my buddy is here!" Ohm came to him yelling in loud voice with a glass of drink in his hand.

"Hey idiot! Where is Fah?" Nanon asked because if Fah was here, Ohm will not be like this.

"She can't come. She is busy with her work" Ohm replied.

"Mon, my friends are here, they want to meet you" Pluem came to their gang. After seeing Nanon, he just gave a small polite smile. Chimon excused and went with him.

"What is he doing here?" Nanon asked to Ohm who was looking at the direction they went.

"Yeah, I was also surprised at first. They decided to have it together. So it is more of engagement party without boring adults" Ohm said chugging his drink.

"Ok" Nanon just shrugged and went to bartender to get his drink. He was seated on the barstool but his eyes was on the entrance looking for Puimek. He was nervous whether she will come or not.

"Better you go there and stand as watchman" Chimon said taking a seat next to him. Nanon was still worried and not ready to joke around.

"Nano, she might be getting late or has some other work. If she doesn't come tonight, don't jump to conclusions" he said patting his shoulder sensing his worry. Nanon smiled a little hearing his words.

"She is not coming dude! I am your company today!" Ohm sat on his other side.

"Oiii why are you like this Ohm? He is already worried, you don't have to add up" Chimon said shaking his head disapproving.

"What? I am preparing him for negative outcomes" Ohm defended his attitude.

"You both..." Nanon shook his head tiredly. "One is positive and another is negative. I am stuck in middle" he said throwing his arms on each of them.

"That's how we balance your life!" Chimon said. "If you have one!" Ohm added and all three burst into laughing. They are the best Nanon could ask for.

"Hi Non!" All three turned to see Puimek who was smiling sweetly. "Sorry I got struck in traffic" she gave an apologetic smile.

"Hi Puimek! Thank you for coming" Chimon was the first one to reply. Nanon was still in sweet shock. "Congratulations...also thank you for having me" She smiled awkwardly. She was not really close to other two.

Ohm nudged Nanon to say something. "Hi Puimek, you look pretty today" Nanon said blushing little.

"Ok I will leave you guys now, Ohm come with me" Chimon said and pulled Ohm with him who was reluctant to go.

Very soon, the party was in full flow. Everyone was drinking and chatting. Nanon and Puimek were seated on one side talking and laughing occasionally. Pluem and Chimon were on other table in same way. Ohm was alone seeing them both.

"Hereafter I am never coming to these lovebirds party without Fah" he took a vow in his mind. He was so jealous on seeing all couples and he was left out.

The party begins to wind down and many of Pluem and Chimon's friends left including Ohm.

"Thank you for coming" Chimon said to Puimek who was waiting for Nanon. He asked her to wait and gone out.

"It was actually fun. Thank you for having me" Puimek replied smiling.

"Here" Chimon gave her his wedding invitation. "You should definitely come" he insisted.

"Oh it is on my birthday!" Puimek squealed a little excited. "Then it is going to double fun!" Chimon replied smiling happily.

"Puimek, I got you cab" Nanon informed as soon as he came. "Oh" Puimek face fell disappointed. "Ok then, bye guys" she gave a small hug to both of them and left.

Nanon was looking at the direction she left. Chimon came next to Nanon and smacked his head.

"You dumb!" He muttered. Nanon was rubbing his head confused. "You should have dropped her" Chimon stated the fact.

"Ohh" Nanon slowly realised it.

"I already feel sorry for her. She is going to suffer" Chimon said to tease him. But Nanon didn't respond anything.

"Hey I just said that for fun. I am sorry if you feel offended" Chimon said quickly apologising. "She seems interested in you Nanon. If you confess I think you will have a chance." Chimon said slowly.

"My wedding and her birthday is on same day. You could confess on her birthday" Chimon gave him idea.

"Will you help me?" Nanon asked his voice barely whisper.

"Only if you help me with wedding preparation" he said smiling cheekily.

"Fine" Nanon said showing his fist. They did a fist bump signing their deal.
