MEW'S POV

I wake up feeling dizzy and groggy, we drank 1 bottle of scotch and all I can remember was I pass out and I dreamt of kissing Gulf.

Then I turn to the other side of the bed and I saw the half naked Art.

"What the fuck nong?" I jolted in bed only to lie again because of the dizziness.

Art wakes up and rub his eyes.
"Why are you shouting Phi? I have jetlag and hang over!" Art turn to bury his body again in the comforter but I pulled him.

"Did something happen to us?"
I ask him looking intently in his eyes.

"Nothing phi." he looked offended.

"Was that hickeys on your neck?"

"I got them before I came here, but you kiss me hard and call me Gulf many times then you pass out."

"I kissed you?" Dumbfounded i grip my aching head. It's impossible, I only had the urge to kiss Gulf, and him alone. How did I ever managed to kiss and mistook someone as him?

"Yeah, it doesnt matter. Now let me sleep."
Art dove again in the bed.

I check my phone if Gulf call or chat but nothing.

So I stand up to go to the bathroom and freshen up.

It's late in the afternoon and I can't cook while I have a headache so I just ordered pizza.

When the pizza came, I ate and leave some for Art, then I leave a note in the table saying I'll be in the hospital.

I stay with my mom until midnight then. when I came home, Art and I did a bar hopping.

"I don't want to drink nong please I still had a headache."

"It's up to you." He lifts up the long glass filled with Mojito and drink on it.

My mind flies to Bangkok why Gulf didn't call or chat me. The day won't end up if Gulf didn't call me, If he still won't call me tomorrow I will go to Bangkok to check on him.

We transferred to a various clubs here in Brooklyn. MARQUEE is the nicest, it has big area to dance and the music are nice too.

I let Art dance and meet with anyone while I remain sitting on the couch.

"Hey handsome, ALONE?" A blond lady with a skimpy dress came near me.

"Sorry I am gay." I shook my head when she go away immediately while saying
"Why does all the handsome men these days has to be Gay?"

We decided to go home when the club closes, Art was totally wasted and asleep.
When we arrived home I drop him to bed and I will sleep on the couch.

I don't want to kiss him again. It feels so wrong and I can't cheat on Gulf.

When I wake up the next day, still no sign of Gulf and my worries are eating me.
So I made a decision, and I pack a small traveling bag and book a flight.

I inform Art and he decided to go with me.

I call the hospital and tell the personal caregiver of my mom that I'll be away for a while.

While on the plane, I'm holding my gift for him.

I will give this in advance. I can't relax while thinking why he ignored me.

GULF'S POV

I'm not moving, I just stare on the ceiling of my room the whole day. I didn't get out of the room. My chest felt heavy but I can't cry, my tears won't come out. I feel Numb.

"Gulfie! Yohoo! Get out now!!" Thats Win's voice.

He keep on calling me while banging the door.

"Get up now because we have a problem, go to the library now."

I opened up the door and he saw me.
"Aww cousin you stink! Quick! Take a shower and we will wait for you in the library." Win immediately go down and I take a shower.

When I finished, I go straight to the library and I saw my parents and Win's parents talking.

"Hello everyone, what's this meeting all about?" I give each of them a peck on the cheeks.

"I just want you and Win to know that I am summoned by the Ministry Of Health." My Father sounds problematic.

"About what?" Win and I asked in unison.

"Someone reported that our hospital was incompetent and lack of good service, that's what written in the summon." Win's dad said. "The secretary wanted to mee me for formality."

"This is not true the people who we served can justify that." My mom said.

"We can sue them Libel on whoever spreading that fake news." Win said, in our age he knows a lot about the law.

"Then I'll use dirty tactics, think about the hundreds of nurses, doctors and staffs under you."

The voice of mew's father echoed on my mind.

"We will investigate this issue."  Win's mother said.

"Dad, gather all our permits, any papers for legalization, papers for our health equipments, computer datas and everything. Then tell our lawyer to prepare a libel case." I said while gritting my teeth in anger.

We continued planning and after that my dad talk to me alone.

"Son, I have an idea who did this to us, I think it is Mr. Jongcheveevat, I know that his son is special to you but I don't want our people to suffer the same fate of the previous lover of his son, their business face a lot of problems and it undergoes bankruptcy. I don't want that to happen on us... We are important in the health department, whatever you have is precious I know but it's up to you to decide for the better, but please choose the best."

I nodded and smiled at him, without my usual joyful glow." I understand Dad."

He mess my hair, and pinch my cheek. "I'll go ahead I need to prepare my meeting to the Ministry Of Health."
He tapped my back, I nodded and ran back to my room.

MEW'S POV

After Art and I arrived in Bangkok, I directly went to our home to prepare to go to Gulf's house, I was standing in the living room where our househelps watched a news Channel.

"THE MINISTER OF HEALTH IN THAILAND CALLED OUT THE DIRECTOR OF BANGKOK MEDICAL CENTER FOR AN INVESTIGATION ON A CERTAIN ISSUE OF INCOMPETENCY AND LACK OF GOOD SERVICE, RIGHT AT THE MOMENT THE MEDIA PANEL WAS TALKING TO DOCTOR TRAIPIPATANAPONG ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT HE SAID WE WILL JUST WAIT FOR UPDATES. THIS IS OFF REPORTING TO LINE TV NEWS. "

INCOMPETENCY?
LACK OF GOOD SERVICE?
BMC was one of the best hospitals in Thailand.

I remember what happened to Lhong's family business. It's MY FATHER.

I grabbed my car keys and put the small velvet box of the necklace and then I drive to Gulf's house nearly smashing the doorbell.

His mother opened the gate for me.

"Hello, Auntie, May I speak to Gulf?" I politely greeted her

"Come in, three days ago my son acted strange, did you two had a  fight?"

My jaw dropped when I heard that.

"What? He didn't contact me those days."

"You know the way to his room? Go ask him yourself."

I nodded, "Thank you, Auntie."

I climb up the stairs and knock his door.

"Hi baby, It's me.. Open up please let's talk.. I came here because you ignore me in 3 days and I dont know why. Baby please open up!" I keep on knocking until a crying Gulf opened the door and without further a do.

HE SLAP ME.
