"Fuck,I don't like this!"

Arthit groaned as he sat on the chair in the counter. His teeth grinding each other as he tried to suppress his anger and frustration.

Today was a day like any other weekend but for Arthit, the well-known owner of multiple shops, was having a very frustrating day just because the two employees of his Shoe shop 'Berlay' decided to suddenly come up with excuses for a day off that he himself had to come and manage the shop at the moment.

For Arthit every weekend, especially Saturday, will be a party day. He and his other four best friends with whom he had started his business would roam around the city till it's evening and their night would be spent in the Bar that they own which was under one of his best friend, Bright's control.

Being the owner of many shops and markets was really a miracle for Arthit and his friends. They only started their business with one shoe shop and one bar, soon these both shops became famous all over the city of Bangkok.

They soon started to expand their business, as their profit increased, they started to build a new building for their new shops. At the moment, there are more than 10 shops under their ownership, each shop different from one another.

The five friends begin their business at the age of 19,they were still university students by then. The group of friends had taken each a lottery at that time and two of their lottery won the first and second place.

They won 1 million in total and, Arthit and his four friends decided to start a business, at first it didn't go well but after one year their business started to develop. It was first a shoe shop then they started a bar shop.

It has been 10 years since their business started and expanding all over the city and out.

Arthit looked at his phone mumbling words as he took the ringing phone in his hands and took the phone.

"What!?" Arthit's voice was filled with irritation.

"Oh, Arthit, please don't be angry with me! I'm not the one who let his employees take the leave. You could have told them."

Arthit sighed when he heard Prem's, his best friend's, voice which was teasing him.

"Oh really? On the other hand, why couldn't you guys accompany me for the work rather than roaming around the city?" Arthit grumbled back, his voice filled with irritation.

"We don't want to waste our time sitting in for work 24/7. It's boring. You, on the other hand, loves to sit inside in a closed room," Prem chuckled.

"Oh yeah, but you know I also want fresh air at times and I only go out during Saturdays and Sundays. Idiot!"

Prem laughed when his friend cursed him.

"So, why did you call all of a sudden?" Arthit asked, his hands playing on the small sponge ball which he was squeezing.

"Oh, I totally forgot about that! We arranged a blind date for you!" Prem's voice filled with excitement.

"Date?" Arthit asked confused.

"Yeah, Date. We all have our lovers, Arthit. You are the only one who is single in our group and I don't think you yourself will take initiative to change it, so we decided why not we start doing something about it or else you will end up living in a big house with 50 cats with you."

Arthit sighed. He ran his fingers through his hair, his eyes rolling in annoyance.

"Prem, you know I'm not interested in this." Arthit tried to defend himself from the date.

"We know, Arthit. This one time you meet this person. He looks very handsome and he is a Barista, he is not up to your level in terms of money but according to what I know he is really handsome and kind. Just meet him, Arthit. Please."

Arthit shook his head in distress. He denied the option but soon his friend made him agree to the idea.

"So, where should go? And when?" Arthit asked, even though he didn't like it but deep down just hearing to meet his date made his heart flutter.

"On Thursday, at 5 pm in the Karin Cafe. Don't forget about it, Arthit. You better note down on the calendar or in your phone's remainder."

Arthit hummed a reply before he hung up and placed the phone on the counter as he sighed.

Arthit suddenly looked up when he heard the door to the shop open.

A man with milky skin in long ripped jeans and crip red shirt, wearing black sunglasses entered the shop.

Arthit within one look understood the man who was walking towards him with a weird smile on his face was filthy rich. And this made Arthit groan, he had met many people who are rich that show off their status to get attention, he prayed this guy was not like that.

He was already in a foul mood, he didn't want to ruin his day some more.

The man walked towards Arthit who was at the counter and trying to show his best smile.

"You are a worker here?" The man's voice was soft yet playful, the man removed his sunglasses and stared at Arthit.

Arthit could see the man's eyes traveling from his face to his foot and this made him boil in rage.

"Yes, what can I help you with, Sir?" Arthit asked as politely as he can.

"I would like to see the most expensive shoes in this shop, I would like to buy one," the man said as he leaned forward to the counter.

Arthit smiled politely at the customer before he dragged himself to find the rack with expensive shoes.

Just a few minutes later Arthit came with four shoe boxes in his hands. His eyes gazed at the man who was sitting on the sofa, whistling as he looked at his phone.

Arthit kept the four boxes beside the sofa and started to unpack each.

"Sir, which model would you like?" Arthit asked as he found the customer's gaze only fixed on his face rather than on the pairs of shoes that were lined infront of him.

"I like this," the customer pointed towards Arthit as he stood up.

"Oh sir, please choose from one of these shoes. We can save you time." Arthit said as he chuckled. Arthit couldn't help but clutch his palm into a fist as he saw the customer's smug look.

"Oh, too bad. I want the one with blue strips of the baton. This size is small. I want the next size of it." The customer said, his eyes still on Arthit.

"Sure, Sir."

Arthit knelt down to take the four boxes and walked away. He hissed in anger when he felt a hand on his butt, but he nevertheless tried to ignore.

Arthit returned back with the said size of shoes and asked the customer to follow him to the counter to pay.

"How much does it cost....handsome?"

Arthit groaned and about to raise his hand but he decided against it.

"1,320 baht, Sir," Arthit replied in a monotone.

"That is really expensive!? Can you reduce it for me, handsome?" The customer leaned forward again the counter as he looked at Arthit with his lustful eyes.

Arthit raised his head from the computer where he was going to enter the bill.

"Excuse me, Sir? You are the one who asked me to give the most expensive shoes here," Arthit reminded the latter arrogantly.

The customer raised his eyebrows and took hold of Arthit's hand.

"Please cutie, can't you reduce a bit for this handsome guy in front of you? I will give you something in return which you will love for sure, what say?"

Arthit's face turned red with anger, he pulled his hands away from the latter and shouted at him.

"Who do you think you are!? You gave you permission to call me handsome or cute?! You are filthy rich and I can see that! You are the one who asks me to take these shoes and now you are asking for a discount!?" Arthit shouted in anger.

The man who stood infront of him grunted his teeth in anger.

"Who do you think you are raising your voice young man? Do respect rich people like us, you scumbag. Do what I say or you will suffer!"

Arthit walked out of the counter and stood infront of the customer.

"You shut your fucking mouth, you bastard! You are just here to ogle at me for no purpose and now you are barking at me!"

Arthit pointed his finger at the man who looked at him with a face that was bright red with anger.

"You are a fucking idiot!" Arthit shouted.

"Hey!"

Arthit and the customer turned their head towards the voice that interrupted them.

A tanned skin man, in a simple black shirt and grey jeans, walked towards the two men who were fighting as he eyed Arthit with threatening eyes.

"What is happening here, Aim? Why is this worker insulting you!?" The man who came towards them asked.

Arthit stared at the man infront him as he groaned. His eyes were plastered on the man's face who was a few inches shorter than him.

"It's nothing, Kongpob. This guy here is very disrespectful, such a shame to this shop!" The tall, fair-skinned customer complains to the man who came into the shop at the moment.

Arthit's palms turned to a fist and veins were popping out of his hand at how hard he clutched his fist. He wanted to say he was the owner of this shop and many others which were famous in the country, and that he was also rich like the man who had insulted him, but he didn't want to create much of an issue.

Kongpob turned his head towards Arthit who was still eyeing Kongpob without blinking his eyes.

Kongpob turned towards his friend and patted his shoulder.

"Aim, go now. We will talk about this later. Uncle had asked me to inform you that he wants to meet you." Kongpob said he didn't fail to notice the frown on the man who he claims to be the worker of the shop.

Aim nodded his head and turned towards Arthit, his eyes glaring at the man before he walked out of the shop.

Kongpob turned towards Arthit with an expressionless face.

"So, you are the one who made my friend angry.  A worker should be at a worker's position and listen to what the customer says. Don't repeat this," Kongpob warned.

Arthit huffed his cheeks and rolled his eyes.

"You don't know anything that happened, young man. Such a nuisance," Arthit mumbled but Kongpob heard it.

Kongpob raised his eyebrows at the man and walked towards him.

Arthit didn't break the contact of his eyes with the man infront of him who was now standing with an inch gap between them.

Arthit's eyes trailed the long black lashes and those pink thin lips that looked tempting to him. Arthit doesn't know why but his heart started to beat fast and his throat became dry.

Kongpob smirked at the Arthit who was sweating infront of him with round black eyes which were not blinking.

"Don't ever repeat it, volcano man."

Kongpob laughed silently before he walked past Arthit.

"Hey! Why are you simply standing there? Come on, show me some good shoes. I want to buy one," Kongpob said as he moved towards the rack of shoes.

Arthit smacked his own head in distress before he followed Kongpob. He couldn't help but think how this guy could make him feel such weird feelings inside him. Something inside him made him feel that this guy was of no harm again.

"Take that shoe," Kongpob pointed towards the white Adidas shoes in the rack.

Arthit looked at Kongpob in disbelief, the shoes were just a few inches away from him and he could take it and try it on. But he called Arthit for taking that shoe from the rack.

Arthit groaned before he walked forward and took the shoes and walked back towards Kongpob who was already seated on the sofa for trying the shoes on.

"Make me wear this shoe," Kongpob ordered, a smirk forming on his lips as he flung his hands over the sofa head.

Arthit looked at Kongpob with wide eyes.

What the fuck?!!

No one has ever asked him to put shoes on their feet. Even the arrogant brat customer, Aim, didn't ask him to wear the shoes on his foot, well that man's eyes were on him.

"What are you looking at? Do as I say, now!" Kongpob ordered as he looked at Arthit with daring eyes.

"Do you know who I am?" Arthit asked his voice strong and fiercely which send shivers in Kongpob's body.

Kongpob tried to show as if he was not bothered by the latter's tone of speech as he looked at Arthit from head to toe.

"You are a worker and I'm your customer. Be respectful to your customers. Or I will complain to the manager of the shop. This shop has a very good reputation in the country, don't ruin it by your daring actions."

Kongpob's eyes sparkled with mischief as a small smirk spread over his lips as he asked Arthit to put on the shoes on his feet with his eyes.

Arthit clutched his hands and restricted himself from bursting. Somehow he didn't feel to shout at the man in front of him.

He was very wrong about this person.

Arthit groaned before he scouted down and took Kongpob's feet in his hands to put the shoes on his feet.

"You are just a bastard idiot..." Arthit mumbled.

"Did you say something?" Kongpob asked with a sly smile on his face.

"Nothing...Sir," Arthit smiled awkwardly at the latter.

"Then it's good," Kongpob said as he relaxed onto the sofa, he had clearly

Kongpob looked at Arthit with a smirk,he could feel the frustration through Arthit's attitude.

After Arthit makes him wear the shoes, Kongpob shook his head in dissatisfaction. Kongpob asked Arthit to show him some more shoes and made him wear those shoes on his feet.

******

Arthit took the last pair of shoes in the rack and gave it to Kongpob who made Arthit wear the shoes on his feet.

"Sir, this is the 50th shoes, are you buying this?" Arthit asked as he heaved a sigh.

Kongpob stood up from the sofa and looked at the shoes that were scattered on the floor.

Kongpob's fingers were on his chin and his eyelashes fluttered.

Arthit's eyes didn't miss the way Kongpob's tongue slipping out between his lips as he gazed at the floor.

He couldn't help but think the latter looked cute.

Kongpob took two pair of shoes in each of his hand and showed it to Arthit.

"What do you think? Is the white one or red one looks nice for me?" An innocent smile was plastered on Kongpob's face which made Arthit's head flutter.

Arthit looked at Kongpob's lips which were pouted lightly and gulped.

"I... I...I think the white suits better," Arthit said, his voice shuttering.

Kongpob kept the red shoes on the floor and took the white one in his hands and stood up.

Arthit looked at the man confused seeing him walking towards the rack of shoes and placing the white shoes in his hands on the empty space on it.

"What are you doing, Sir?" Arthit asked confused.

Kongpob shrugged his shoulders and asked Arthit to follow him towards the counter.

Kongpob shook Arthit's hand who was still confused.

"I think I will buy the shoes some other day, I'm not interested in it now," Kongpob said as he smiled innocently at Arthit.

Arthit's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he heard. His hands were paining from taking all those shoes and making them wear on the customer's foot.

"What the fuck are you telling?" Arthit's voice raised.

Kongpob smiled sweetly at the latter and waved his hands.

"Bye! See you next time, volcano man!"

Arthit didn't have a chance to speak, he could see the latter laughing as he walked away from his shop.

Arthit punched the wall near him in anger.

"If I get you in my hands again, I'm going to kill you. Bastard!"
