Previously on Same Mistakes,

Anita went inside her room and saw her phone ringing. She picked up her phone and saw an incoming call from an unknown number. She picked up the call.

"Hello."

Anita got no response from the other side.

"Who is this?" Anita asked.

The reply made Anita regretting her decision of picking up the call.

"Hey, babydoll. Missed me?"

Anita's heartbeat quickened. She could recognise that voice anywhere, even in the void.

"Kim."

Present,

"Kim."

"Oh, you remember your lover?" Kim asked, sarcastically.

"You're not my lover." Anita said, emphasising on 'not'.

"Hmm, as long as I remember, we never properly broke up, did we?" Kim asked.

"No. You just ran away like a coward." Anita said, seething.

"Oh come on. Don't be like that. I wanted to follow my dreams. Don't you miss me?" Kim asked, mocking a sweet tone.

"No. I don't. I needed you two years ago but you left me. My father just had his funeral and two hours later, I got the news that you've shifted to another apartment because you want to follow a different path and want your involvement to the minimum in the mafia." Anita ranted.

"I'm sorry, okay. I made a dumb mistake. Can't you just forgive me?" Kim asked.

"What the fuck do you want? What's purpose of your call?" Anita asked, changing the topic.

"What? Can't I just call you to know how you're doing?" Kim asked.

"Cut the crap, Kim. What do you want?" Anita asked again.

"Fine. I just wanted to know why Minor family was at the mansion." Kim said.

"They were here for the usual business meeting." Anita informed.

"Okay. But seriously, Ana, I want you to forgive me. I really want this last chance." Kim said, desperation evident in his voice.

"We're not having this conversation again and stop calling me from different number." Anita scolded.

"One day, you will give me a chance." Kim said.

"I'm not going to make same mistakes again." Anita said.

She cut the call. Her hand went to her head and she pulled her hair out of frustration. He knows her too well. He's trying to break down her walls. He knows that one day she'll give chance to him if he keep on insisting. But Anita was stubborn as well. She'll not fall into his trap. She could feel the hot tears sliding down her face. She was getting angry because of her periods and the conversation with Kim. Someone knocked on the door of her room.

"Who is it?" Anita asked, sharply.

"It's Pete." Pete said, nervously.

Anita opened the door. Pete noticed the tear stains on her cheek. Pete furrowed his brows, but didn't asked her anything. He understood the reason of her tears. He hugged her tightly. He knows that Anita, who supports everyone in their daily lives, sometimes needs support as well. Pete could feel Anita shaking in his embrace. She let out a loud sob. Every month, whenever Kim calls, Anita breakdowns in front of Pete and he just holds her.

"Shh. It's alright, Nita." Pete whispered.

"Why me, Pete? Why does he call me? Why does he ask for forgiveness?" Anita asked, crying her heart out.

"I don't know, Nita." Pete said and patted her head.

"He's the reason I'm afraid of falling in love again." Anita confessed.

She hugged Pete tightly. Pete kept whispering comforting words to her. After a while, Anita calm down.

"Do you want to have movie marathon and ice cream?" Pete asked.

"Yes. You're the bestest friend a girl could ask for." Anita said, smiling.

Pete smiled and kissed her forehead. He brought ice cream and put the pendrive in the TV. Anita wanted to watch the Harry Potter series, so Pete put on the first film and both of them watched the movie. In the mid, Porsche also joined them.

In the morning, Anita was with Kinn and Pete. Kinn was working on some business deal. Occassionally, Pete was asking Anita, how she was feeling. Pete and Anita went to see how Porsche, Arm and Pol were doing. Porsche, Anita, Pete, Arm and Pol were sitting lazily on the sofa. Anita was sitting between Arm and Pol and infront of them sat Pete and Porsche. Arm was cleaning his glasses and talking to Anita.

"Don't you guys get bored at all. You've been watching the series all day and night. It's insane." Porsche said, tired.

"That's why I said you're better off with Khun Kinn." Pete said.

"It's kinda fun actually." Pol said, yawning.

Tankhun came in the main room.

"Hey guys."

All the bodyguards stood up.

"What? Sit down, you all." Tankhun said.

"Nita, Kinn is looking for you." Tankhun informed.

Anita nodded and bid her friends goodbye.

"You asked for me, Hia?" Anita asked.

"Yes, Lia. I have a business meeting tomorrow. I need you to make a blueprint that where we're going to need more bodyguards." Kinn said.

Anita nodded and made a blueprint which almost took the whole day to get ready. She showed the blueprint to Kinn, Khun Korn and P'Chan. They all approved the blueprint.

"You're not taking Porsche in this meeting?" Anita asked.

"No." Kinn asnwered.

"Why?" Anita asked.

"The guy will die out there for nothing." Kinn answered.

"He's trying to improve, Hia." Anita argued.

"Until and unless he is completely trained and won't repeat his mistake like the last time, he's not coming with any of us." Kinn said, leaving no room for arguements.

Anita nodded. She felt bad for Porsche. The guy left his 17 year old brother to work as a bodyguard only to be left behind while everyone else is going on missions. Kinn looked at Anita and held her shoulders.

"Look, I promise you that the minute the reports will show that his performance is improved, I will take him as one of my bodyguard." Kinn assured Anita.

Anita smiled at Kinn and nodded. Anita wanted Porsche to improve his skills. She decided that after coming from this meeting, she would help Porsche in his trainings.

Next day, half of the bodyguards went with Khun Korn and Kinn to the meeting. Anita and P'Chan were sitting in a car, together. P'Chan looked at Anita, who seemed to be in deep thought.

"You shouldn't think so much, you know. You just recovered from a head injury." P'Chan cracked a joke. 

Anita looked at P'Chan and gave him a half-hearted smile. P'Chan sighed.

"You know, I sometimes don't like the serious you. What's going on, Anita? I'm your senior. You can tell me." P'Chan said.

"I feel bad for Porsche. He left behind his brother, the only family he has, to work here and we're leaving him behind." Anita said.

P'Chan said the same thing as Kinn to which Anita nodded, again. After the meeting was over, Anita went towards her room and saw Porsche with a dejected face.

"Do you want to become the best? And join us for the meeting and mission?" Anita asked.

Porsche looked at  Anita and nodded.

"Then, I'll train you and you have to give your best. No excuses." Anita said. 

Porsche nodded with a determined face. He stood up and hugged her tightly.

"Your hug feels like home." Porsche said.

"So I've been told." Anita said and grinned.

For the next few days, till the next progress test was due, Anita trained Porsche properly. Arm, Pol and Pete also helped in his training. They were more supportive than Big and Ken. When the next progress test came, Anita was supervising with P'Chan. She saw how Porsche excelled in the shooting test. For the next test, only Porsche and Ken competed. Anita tied Porsche and Ken's hands and feets and pushed them into the pool. Porsche surfaced before Ken and sat on the edge of the pool.

"Hey, Nice one, loser." Porsche mocked.

Ken glared at Porsche and Anita. Anita gave Ken a sarcastic smile and middle finger. Ken and Big left the pool area. Porsche looked at P'Chan.

"You're alright."P'Chan said with a stern face.

P'Chan smiled at Anita and patted her head and he also left the pool area. Pete and Pol hugged Porche, while screaming happily.

"You're the best man." Pete said.

Porsche looked at Anita, who looked proud of him.

"Thank you, Anita." Porsche said. 

Anita shook her head and hugged him tightly and left the pool area as well. Anita was done for the day and went to her room. She picked up her phone from counter amd saw that she got 7 missed calls from Kim. Anita just kept her phone back on the counter. She promised Pete that she won't cry anymore. Anita calmed herself down and went to bed.

Kinn informed Anita on the next morning that they were going to collect debt from a guy.

"Will you take Porsche with us now?" Anita asked.

"I'll think about it." Kinn answered

"You said you'll take him as one of your bodyguard the minute you see his progress." Anita argued.

"I'll think about it, Lia." Kinn said, firmly.

Anita nodded and left the room. Kinn sighed and stood up. Kinn followed Anita and ran to get past her and stood in front of her.

"Hia-" Anita started but was silenced when Kinn stopped her.

"Look, Lia. I know I seem like I'm underestimating him and all but as you said, he has a brother who needs him. By not letting him come with us, I'm saving his brother from a lifetime of grief. Don't think for a minute that I'm doing this because of our grudge." Kinn said.

Anita looked at Kinn with a blank face. Kinn was getting nervous.

"Say something."

"Hia, I was just going to change into my uniform." Anita said.

Kinn looked at her with wide eyes and he mouth formed into 'o'. He cleared his throat and stepped aside for her.

"Well, better hurry up, then." Kinn said and went to his room.

Anita chuckled and changed into her uniform. She went towards Kinn's room. Kinn came out of his room and they walked towards the entrance of the mansion when Porsche came towards them, running.

"I want to join you guys. Please." Porsche pleaded.

Kinn and Anita looked at each other. Anita knew Kinn was going to send Porsche back to Tankhun so she didn't argue but to her and Porsche surprise, Kinn nodded and went ahead of them. Anita and Porsche grinned at each other and hugged.

Kinn, Anita, Porsche, Pete and Ken went inside the house of the guy. Ken dragged the man in front of Kinn and slammed his body on to his table.

"I know it's my fault. But I'm really in the red. My kid is still so little." The man pleaded with Kinn.

"You owe me millions. You've embezzled from the company. Those, I can still let go. But you're selling my secret, isn't just a rumor, is it?" Kinn asked with a cold face and stern voice.

The man started crying. Kinn looked at the man with no emotions what so ever.

"Make him talk." Kinn ordered.

Ken slammed the man's body on the table.

"Please, for the sake of me working with your family for so long." The man begged.

Porsche was feeling uncomfortable. He looked around to see if anyone else was feeling like that. Porsche looked at  Anita who stood behind Kinn with a stoic face. Anita looked back at Porsche and offered him a small smile.

"Then you know, what you'll have to face." Kinn said and leaned back.

Ken pushed the man on the floor and he and Pete continuously kicked the guy. Kinn had a small sadistic and satisfied smile on his face. Anita glanced at Porsche and saw he was feeling uncomfortable. Anita put her hand on Kinn's shoulder, gaining his attention. She gestured towards Porsche who was looking outside. Kinn ordered Pete to take Porsche outside.

Ken continued to beat the guy for 10 minutes before Kinn asked him to stop.

"I'll give you three day." Kinn said and went out with Ken and Anita in tow.

Anita, Kinn and Ken went out of the house and within a minute the man came running out with the gun.

"Kinn." He shouted.

Anita pushed Kinn behind her and Ken. Pete and Porsche came running towards them for extra cover. Porsche tried to reason with the guy and asked him to tell them the name because of which he sold the Theerapanyakul information. The man put down his gun only to pick it up again and shoot. Porsche got shot in the arm. Anita, Pete and Ken shot the man. They went to the mansion and Porsche was rushed to the doctor. Thankfully, it was a minor injury.

"That's what I was trying to avoid, Lia. He got shot. If you would've listened to me, he would still be safe." Kinn said, annoyed.

Anita just looked at Kinn, incredulously.

"Hia, that's how he will learn things." Anita argued.

"Maybe. But now his life will continuously be in danger and you'll be responsible if anything happens to him. You understand, Anita?" Kin asked.

"Yes, Khun Kinn." Anita said.

Kinn knew it was wrong of him to be rude with her without any reason but he can't help it. Anita walked away from him. 

Anita was sitting in her room in the evening when someone knocked on her door. She opened the door and saw Tay outside. Anita smiled and hugged him tightly.

"I missed you so much, P'Tay." Anita said.

"Me too. Now get ready. We're going to a bar." Tay said.

"We?" Anita asked.

"You, me, Tem and Kinn." Tay said.

Anita frowned. Tay saw her facial expression and sighed.

"You and Kinn fought again?" Tay asked.

"No." Anita said, avoiding eye contact.

" Right. Well, you can stay with me all night. I'm choosing your dress, okay?" Tay said and entered her room not letting Anita answer.

Anita shook her head and closed her door. She led Tay to her room and opened her wardrobe. Tay chose a dress for her.

THE DRESS

MAKEUP

HAIR

After getting ready, Tay and Anita went down. Tem and Kinn saw them. Tem went to Tay and Kinn looked at Anita who was avoiding Kinn's eye contact. 

"Let's go. We are going to Yok's bar." Kinn said.

Tay pushed Tem with Kinn and Tay put his arm around Anita's shoulder and both of them sat in the backseat. They arrived at the bar and got out of the car. Anita saw Tankhun, Porsche, Pete, Arm and Pol there.

"Oh, Kinn! Why did you follow me? If you're taking me home, I'm just gonna say I won't. And Nita, we asked if you would join us, you said no and now you're here." Tankhun said, narrowing his eyes.

"I couldn't say no to P'Tay." Anita said.

"Porsche said it's so much fun here. So I want to know if it's true." Kinn said.

"Khun, why didn't you invite me?" Tay asked.

"Hmm, as if you party in these kind of bar. If Kinn didn't ask us to come, you wouldn't come." Tem said which resulted in him getting pinched by Tay.

"Come on, don't fight. The more, the merrier. But know this while partying with me, your energy can't drop, okay?" Tankhun said with swag.

"Well, well, now that Khun Kinn and his friends and Anita are here, tonight, I, Porsche will give you damn blast that you'll never forget." Porsche said. 

The night went partying, dancing and drinking shots and at last everyone was exhausted and slept on the sofa. Anita was sleeping in the arms of Tay. She felt someone was pulling her out of the Tay's grip and was carrying her. Anita opened her eyes a bit but couldn't see anything. Everything was blur. Anita again came into senses when she felt like someone was carrying her again and made her lie down on a soft surface. Anita groaned and tried to sit.

"Hush. Sleep, my love."

This was the last thing she heard before giving into her sleep.
