Breakfast was congee and deep-fried pork belly, dipped in some spicy hot oil. When New saw the meal, he also wished he could drink some alcohol after eating, but because of Anurak, New only drinks when he is alone these days. It was boring but Sud made him do it. Anurak's drinking was really getting out of hand and they wanted to help him control it.
After the meal, just as Dao was clearing the table and Anurak was taking his vitamins, his phone rang. It was King. Anurak saved his number with a question mark. He was tempted to ignore it but after two rings, he gave in.
"Hello, Phi."
"Angel, how was your night?" King asked in a gentle voice. He felt a tingling sensation in his stomach as King's voice made him shiver involuntarily. King wasn't just calling him 'Angel' like his mother did, but he was also being gentle and soft, just like her. Plus, Anurak had always liked that voice. He was always wanting to hear it say more.
