Beam drove directly to Jaturapoom empire's head office as he received news from Lilly that Forth was not home from afternoon. He walked angrily to Forth's cabin where he was sitting with his team. Beam entered. Forth took the chance and walked toward him with an apologetic expression.
" So..." Before he can even complete his word Beam gave him a tight slap. Forth's words disappeared in his mouth and his face turned red from anger. He bit his lip not to blur out his anger on Beam. Lam and Tul were ready to push Beam away before Forth burst the table on his head. " Leave us alone." Are the three words spoken by Forth and all were gone numb in their places. " Didn't you hear me. I said, Leave us Alone." He again barked on higher pitch. They left the cabin.
" What now ? Don't you want to show me your manliness anymore." Beam's voice was roaming in Forth's cabin. But still he was standing speechless as he knew it was his fault as he forced himself on Beam in the afternoon.
" What are you waiting for ? Come forward and hit me." Beam said with the same voice.
" No. I can never hit you, Beam." Forth said in a low voice.
" You can never hit me. But you can force yourself on me." Beam said tears were threatening to fall from his eyes.
" I am Sorry. I ..... I was...." Beam held his right hand in front of Forth gesturing him to stop his explanation.
" P'Bright is Phana's only cousin Forth. Don't hurt him." Forth's eyes snapped open as he heard Bright's name from Beam's mouth. "He doesn't have anything to do with me. He just treats me as a little brother. Don't hurt him please. Don't hurt him for me." Beam's tears were falling from his eyes. He was tired, exhausted mentally. He collapsed and fainted again whispering the same sentence.
Forth laid him to his personal bedroom attached to the cabin. And called his doctor.
" He is in shock, Mr. Jaturapoom. Over working and lack of nutrition also has some effect on him. Nothing serious. Let him rest for a while. He will be ok." After taking advice from the doctor Forth locked the bedroom.
" What happened between you and Beam Forth ?" Lam asked.
" Just don't tell me you hit him ?" Tul warn.
" I didn't. Why would I hit my own husband." Forth retorted and kept silent suddenly when his bedroom door opened and Beam walked nearby them.
" Beam list..." Forth said and stopped as Beam glared at him.
" Don't you dare to explain yourself. Your mistakes were beyond explanation. I am going to the hospital." Beam said and walked further.
" You are not well, you are not going anywhere." Forth tried to stop him.
" I said I am going to the hospital." Beam said.
" Stop your childish behavior. I promised you I would drag you home and lock you there if you didn't listen." Forth warned him.
" I trust you. You can do that." Beam smiled, " You gave me a trailer of that in the afternoon." He said and left the office premises.
That's it, Forth retrieves his gun and shoots at his table and nearby furniture.
Lam made him sit in his cabin as Forth destroyed his own. Lam dragged Park to another cabin, " Care to tell me now what you guys did in Hawaii 5 years ago ?"
Park was just quite,
" Park look into my eyes ." Lam grabs Park's face near his. Park was still hesitating because he didn't want to confess, especially directly to Lam. " Baby." He begins with a peck on Park's lips, " Forth is struggling. He is not in his right mind for now. You know what this means. We have to take charge and find a solution. I would help only when I know the actual problem Park. You and me. We are going to solve this. Right ?" Park nodded his head, " Then please tell me ?"
Park kissed Lam for a while then begin,
" You knew that we sent Rome Hawaii, approximately 6 years ago, right. After generating a spot in Bright's clan successfully, his mission was to disclose the location of his goods' storage to us. He only managed to locate some warehouses of Bright in a short time. But we are greedy. You know Bright was the Underworld King at that time. We thought he was close to Mr. X. That is the main reason he took his father's business so far. His rise in the North was affecting our shine in the south. After spending 6 months also, Rome was unable to get a clutch on his file." Park looked at Lam, " So we thought of using the best weapon in the world."
" You didn't order Rome to play love attempt on him." Lam asked in disbelief and Park lowered his head. " You assholes. You... You guys are sick, Park. Didn't we decide not to use this trick after Max and Tul's incident?"
" Baby, it was the need of the movement." Park answered.
" That's just an excuse. I am shocked that even Max allowed it." Lam said. " Tell me is it end or if anything happens after that. Tell me the entire scene."
" As per our order Rome acted and Bright fell for him. The trick was easy. Show him some love first, make him fall for you and when he does ask him everything. The first two steps completed successfully but even after asking everything to Bright in his drunken self also didn't help us. Bright was not ready to spill anything. He asked Rome for marriage. Staying with him may be helped in mission. Rome agreed and married him. I don't know about their intimacy level. Rome never mentioned anything in his report. But then we went to Thailand and brought him back. Maybe Bright was seriously in love with him." Park said without looking at Lam.
" Maybe ? You still think that maybe he was in love. Can't you see. He is here for him. He is deeply in love with Rome. You only brought him back without doing any violence ?" Lam asked again.
Park shook his head, " We didn't." He is right they didn't. Bright was the one who almost killed them for Rome.
Lam looked at his lover and rubbed his own forehead with hand. " You guys are giving me a headache. Just go and check that Forth is still alive or kill himself to retrieve his husband back."
Park left Lam alone. After sometime Tul came in, " Hey did Park said anything ?" He asked.
" That Bright is in Love with Rome. He is here for Rome, not for his business. We were wrong, Tul. He is not targeting Forth's chair. He is targeting Forth's relation." Lam said.
Tul sat near him, " That means, He is not here to finish us. He is here to wipe us off. Fuck....." Tul cursed.
" Park said they went and brought Rome back. But I don't think he said the whole truth. There must be something happened between them, which he is avoiding." Lam said.
" Do you remember Lam, they were bruised, stabbed and shot when they arrived back. I remember Max's face was full of bruises. Did he give that to my Max ?" Tul asked, gathering anger in his eyes.
" He might be, but now we have to buckle up, Tul. If we can't harm him. We have to shield our people." Lam said and Tul nodded. " Let's go."
It's been three days... After Forth-Beam's fight. Beam is not coming home. Forth was resisting his urges to drag him back from his own hospital. Beam will again gonna be angry if he did something like that.
" P' please do it for me." Forth came to Sarawat's office and requested to send Tine to bring back Beam so they could have little talk.
" And what reason I should give Tine, Why I am asking his help ? He would shoot 100 of questions on me in one go. I can't lie to him and don't want to." Sarawat clearly states his priority.
" Didn't I say, P'Tine is controlling him. Let's go, you never listen to me Forth." Max interrupted between them and earned a glare from Sarawat.
" I can still shoot you Max, but because of Tul, I am quiet now. Don't push your luck." Sarawat said, Before Park could open his mouth he glared in his direction. The trio left Sarawat's office.
" What can we do now ?" Park asked.
" Didn't I say approaching him is a bad idea? Did you listen to what he said?" Max said with fear in his eyes.
That moment Bright came into their office with Sing.
" What are you doing here ?" Forth asked and targeted his gun toward Bright. In a second Sing targeted his gun toward Forth and Park & Max targeted Sing with their guns.
" Stop it guys." Bbom entered the office.
" Forth put your gun down." Lam entered the cabin with Tul.
Forth and all guys were still holding their guns as Bright walked in and sat on the sofa he saw his surroundings, " Nice. You use my money quite well." He said.
" Our Money." Tul said and smiled as Bright looked in his direction. " We searched for resources and made money from that." He completed his sentence.
" The resources were ours." Sing said, holding his aim on Forth as Forth sat in front of bright but put his gun down.
" You are not the owner of that so just quit. " Lam interrupted.
" I was, I am and I will." Bright spoke.
" Our plan works. Our gain your loss. Past is complicated but we are here to talk about the future." Tul was ready to negotiate from their side. Same time Sarawat walked in the cabin.
" Why every time we meet we need to hold our guns in hand ?" He asked in frustration " Put it down Max, Park." He signals Forth with eyes. Forth eyed and the duo lowered their guns followed by Sing. Sarawat walked in and sat with Forth.
" Why is he here now P' ? " Forth asked Sarawat.
" To sign the contract with us." Sarawat explains.
" I will not allow that..." Forth tried to bargain.
" No one asked you. You are not in the state to make any decision for now. I am watching you for three days, you didn't go home nor eat your meal. You are not even sleeping asshole. You fired 25 employees in three days, killed 10 business partners for denying you, what next ? should we destroy this city because you are having a conflict with your husband ?" Sarawat said frustratingly.
" It's not about him P' ?"
Sarawat just lowered his head and pushed his bangs behind with his hands. He is in stress because of these people. Bright chuckled.
" What are you laughing at, asshole ? " Forth try to grab Bright but Sarawat glared at him again.
" He is the reason P'. He is turning Beam against us." Park spoke between.
" And those people were making mistakes continuously so we have to take strict action against them." Max continued further.
" Stop fooling around me. You guys are not kids anymore. I know what is going even with you two. So just shut up and we will talk about this later." Lam and Tul met Sarawat and told him that they knew the truth. They are disappointed with Sarawat that he didn't stop the trio from taking harsh decisions. He turned toward Bright, " The deal will be on, you better be attentive. The goods will be your responsibility until it reached and leaves the Hawaii border. Are we clear, Bright ?"
" Yes of course. I know the rules." Bright said, leaning forward from the couch.
" What about his connection with Mr. X ?" Forth asked.
" Are you so dumb to think that I will divide my kingdom with someone so low and scared one. You know the story of 2 cats and a monkey. Between cat fights the Monkey took the opportunity. Now I am back and I won't allow any monkey to take the opportunity. I want everything back what was mine, starting from a lover, including the basement I created for my kingdom. Are we clear?" He said.
" He is right Forth. I check the records. He is clear between the rise of Mr. X. Bright left the chair and he snatched. The Colombian Mafia is big coward." Tul replied.
" How do you know he is from Colombia ?" Max asked the question before Forth.
" Sing helps me to find his past. We are digging deep." Tul replied.
" Fine, he is clear. What next ?" Forth asked, " Still we are doing business with the enemy." He said.
" No you are not, if you are ready to give my husband back." Bright said.
" He is not my slave. I don't have any right to him. He doesn't want you. Open your eyes Bright, Rome is not in love with you." Forth said.
" You want to see." Bright took his hunting knife and again opened his sewed wound. The blood started to run from his chest but he was calm as a sea. Sing dialed Rome's number, " Rome can you bring Beam here in the Jaturapoom empire. We were in the meeting and suddenly Mr. Kai's stitches opened. Please." He ended the call.
" You fucker this is how you confused my husband that I harm you." Forth spoke.
" This is unethical, Bright. Are you out of your mind ? " Sarawat roared.
" I didn't tell anything to Beam P'. He assumed and without clarifying went here." Bright said.
" Liar." Max said.
" We are not you. We didn't play your silly game. Before Mr. Kai explained anything, Beam assumed and ran here." Sing said in his deep voice. Between their glaring competition in no time Rome opened the meeting room door and ran toward Bright with Beam, Phana followed after them. Beam glared at Forth and turned his face away.
Beam was looking exhausted, his soft pale skin was dehydrated, the big dark eyes were red now. Did he cry ? Thinking about the whole thing caused Forth pain in his chest. Forth clutched his chest with right hand but no use the pain was rising. Seeing Beam in this condition, in front of him he can't tolerate more.
" Beam....." Forth fainted right there where he stood when Beam joined the office.
Forth opened his eyes in a white dull room. He tried to move his hand,
" No need. Relax and stay still." Beam replied in his soft caring voice, tapping forehead.
Forth looked here and there. " Why am I in hospital ?" He asked.
" Why didn't you eat properly ?" Beam asked.
" How would I eat when my husband is not talking to me ?" He said matching the gaze with Beam's eyes which were way to calm now.
Beam's eyes turned teary, " I am sorry for the misunderstanding." He controlled his tears.
Forth sat on bed and took Beam in his embraced. " Hey don't cry please. I am sorry. I am the one who is wrong here, sorry love. I gave you pain again." Forth said.
Beam buried his face in Forth's neck and said, " P' Bright told me about what he was talking about that day, but maybe I am so upset with you that I misunderstood the entire situation. I am sorry."
" Hey really, I don't mind, please don't cry. If I upset you next time, just tie me to bed and do your surgery practice. Just don't ignore me. I can't take that silent treatment. Please love." Forth said and Beam just smiled, Forth saw him smiling. " Hey, naughty love. Are you still thinking about tying me to bed and doing...."
Beam closed Forth's mouth with his hands, " Stop it Forth....."
Forth removed his hand from mouth and pulled Beam closer, " I am your P'. Call me P'." He said in a husky voice.
He was talking from a very close distance. " Stop it Forth this is not the place for such actions." Beam spoke again.
Forth turn him around and caught between his feet. Now Forth was sitting on bed hanging his leg with Beam in between. Forth buried his lips in Beam's neck. Kissing his pale neck, biting him on neck and sucking the spot.
Beam was feeling uncomfortable, the conversation he had with Bright pops up in his mind. He just hit Forth lightly and moved away from his grip. " You are not well Forth . Take a rest. If you need anything just ring the bell." He said and tried to walk away.
Forth grabbed his hand and stopped him, " What happened ? Didn't Bright clear the misunderstanding ?" He asked.
" Yeah he did. But that didn't change what you did with me." Beam said.
" I can't turn the time back, Beam, that's why I said sorry." Forth explained his point.
" Yeah right. If I can, I will use it to fix the day we met." Beam pushed his hand back from Forth's grip.
" That much you hate me ? That you want to change our most precious moment of our life." Forth ask.
" Who cares about my feelings, Forth ? Who cares about what I want and what I don't ?" Beam exploded his inner emotions, " Meeting me is very precious to you right ? Then why are you forcing an unwanted marriage on me ?" He said moving near Forth. " Can't you see I am struggling ? Can't you see my pain ? You abandoned me from my friend and married me using your force. Showing me love - dove emotion, now you are getting on my nerves. Do you know I didn't eat properly when we were not talking to each other. I was unable to sleep as it was always cold because I wanted your embraced me . I am crying at every fucking little thing. For god sake someone remind me that I am a man. Man never cries. How can I love the person who is changing me drastically ? How can I stay near you when I know you will leave me as soon as....." Beam stopped his words.
" As soon as what ? Tell me." Forth asked.
" That you know better than me. You want to marry me, I marry you. That's the universal truth, let's accept it." Beam said and turned to leave, Forth tried to stop him but because of weakness he stumbled and hit the nearby table. Beam heard the noise and turned. His eyes met with the weak Forth who was trying to stand with the help of a table. Beam helped him and laid him down on the bed. He checked his vitals. Forth was not in his sense.
" Can you hear me Mr. Jaturapoom." Beam asked.
Lam came into the VIP room with others. Rome moved forward and stood near Beam.
" What happened ? Guard told us they heard some noise ?" He asked.
" After my warnings also, he tried to get up and fell on the ground." Beam said while adjusting Forth's IV.
He moved to the other side of the bed to check Forth when Lam was tearing him with a dark gaze.
" What ?" Beam asked in frustratingly, Forth even held his hand in his unconscious state.
" You are not allowed to be alone with him ?" Lam said in a serious tone.
" I am not allowed. I don't need your permission, I am his husband." Beam hissed back.
" We know very well what kind of husband thing you guys are playing so until further orders you heard Lam." Tul said.
" Hhhhhh. And I seriously thought of you as my friend Tul." Beam said while still checking Forth.
" I am Beam. That's why I am telling you to follow Lam's order. Forth was never this weak. Look at him. Congratulations, you tore a big man in days." Tul said while clapping.
" No one is able to kill him with weapons. But you successfully manage to give him a heart attack in his 30's. I must say you are something." Lam said, still glaring at Beam.
" It's not because of me, damn it. It's because he didn't eat properly. He was suffering through acidity. That gas causes pressure on his heart." Beam explains.
" And who was the reason for his hunger strike ? He is our Boss Beam, our loyalty is always on his side." Tul asked.
" If something happened to him because of you. I will bury you alive in the same grave with his body." Lam said.
" I will not allow you to touch him even slightly." Bright came into the room when Lam was threatening Beam. " His brother is here with him."
" How dare you threaten him Lam ?" Phana came forward and stood behind Beam.
" Try to touch him once and we will show you how we operate the sizer in the operation theater." Kit also joined the verbal war.
Lam greeted his teeth, " Catch them." He ordered. In know time Park, Max even Tul with their guards targeted guns toward Beam and the group.
Rome came in front of Beam. On Bright's nod Sing, Rome and Bright's man pointed their gun at the opposite group.
" Rome ?" Park asked.
" P' Forth instructed me P'. No matter what condition is, no matter if he is there or not, till his last breath, P'Beam is my priority and I am gonna protect him from everyone including you. I know you are second in command still P'Forth is the one who calls shots P'Lam. Until his further order you are not allowed near P'Beam." Rome released his safety plug and loaded the gun.
Beam's tears were following from his eyes when he heard Rome. ' What are you doing asshole ? Just wake up ? Wake up and hit me & others. So I can hate you. Seeing you being a jerk, I know I will hate you. Just get up. I can't hate you if you're gonna act so vulnerable P'. Wake up.' He thought.
Sarawat entered the VIP hospital room with the doctor and a worried Tine.
" Beam...." Tine ran between the guns to Beam as soon as he saw him crying.
" P' Tine..." Tine hugged him from the side as Forth was tightly holding Beam's hand.
" What the fuck are you guys doing from morning ?" Sarawat glared at Park and Max.
Seeing Sarawat here Lam ordered, " Withdraw." Bright follows his action.
All were still standing there when the head doctor checked Forth, Beam gave Forth's report to the Head Doctor. After checking Forth doctor moved toward Sarawat who is standing with Forth's gang. " I checked the patient Mr. Guthithanon. The reports were right. Patient is healthy but the acid levels in his body are high which caused the pressure on his heart because of that he fainted in the office. No need to worry, I checked the medication. It is correct and effective. Dr. Beam informed me that he was conscious for 15 min. and again stumbled and fainted. For that I think he is going through some stress. Tell him to rest and just don't pressurize him for anything. Yoga therapy will work. I will check him again in four hours. Allow me to leave." Doctor said and bowed in respect before leaving the room.
" Let's go Beam." Phana was dragging Beam outside.
" Where are you taking me ? " Beam was looking at Forth as Phana tried to get him out of the room.
" Are you dumb ? Didn't you see their true colors ? Forth is admitted here for an hour and they pointed guns toward you. Still, you want to stay here ?" Phana said in frustration as Beam was denying to go back.
" My husband is laying here Pha. How can I leave him alone with the same people as you mentioned before. If they do this to me they could do more to him as he is not in his good state." Beam said, clutching his hand back from Phana's grip.
Bright put his hand on Phana's shoulder to stop him from pushing Beam. Lam hissed and stood to say something but Sarawat pushed his hand and signed him to keep quiet. Kit moved forward and gave a stool so Beam can sit near Forth.
" You go back to duty. I will stay with him tonight. We can't trust these people." Kit said to Phana and both nodded their heads. Bright appointed his four best men out of the room when he walked out with Sing and Phana.
" Don't worry Pha. Rome is the best fighter. He will never allow anyone near him. And you also know Kit. Right ?" Bright assured Phana.
" You saw them right P'. Please tell Beam to cut all ties with this man. He is not good for him." Phana again started his old track.
Bright looked into Phana eyes, put his one hand on Phana's shoulder and said, " Look I know you are worried for Beam, But the way he went towards Forth listened to my one advice. You can't drag him away from his husband. You have to divert his attention from him, so he can leave him. Don't use your force again on him, or else he will never listen to you." Phana node and they walked away.
In Forth's room,
Sarawat was sitting on the sofa with Lam on his left and Tine on his right. For the privacy of Forth, Beam on the partition dividing the bed with hall. Lam was definitely against this decision but Sarawat made him quit as he was unable to fight Tine's glare.
" Why are you sitting so quiet ? just scold them ?" Tine said.
Sarawat just looks at Tine, " Tine, they are not totally wrong. Forth is head of Jaturapoom empire. His safety is their priority. How many times have you seen him in this state ? He was even conscious when they removed three bullet's from his body. He didn't allow them to give him chloroform. As he didn't allow his mind to sleep. Now with three days of separation and quarrel with his husband has admitted him in hospital. We must thoroughly check the entire matter. He is not a weak link. Someone must have poisoned him. We need to take some measures. "
" You didn't love me anymore Wat." Tine turned his gaze in another direction and sulk.
Lam and others just watched the scene shockingly where Tul was smiling looking at sulking Tine.
" How come my love would be less if I didn't scold them ? " Sarawat asked his sulking husband.
" They pointed a gun toward my Beam." Tine said.
" Awww P' I thought I am your favorite, but it seems you have a new favorite now." Tul said sulkily.
" Shut up Tul. You also pointed a gun toward Beam. Now you are not my favorite." Tine scolded Tul and Max caressed his head with hand for sympathy.
Finally, the day ended.
When Forth opened his eyes at midnight, he saw Beam sleeping in a seated position. He was going to caress his head when suddenly he remembered the moment when Beam was fighting with him. Rome was also up from Forth's moment, but Forth signed him to keep quiet.
He just pulled IV seringa out from his hand. After knowing Beam is in deep sleep he lifted him and tucked in bed where he slept before sometime. He walks out of the bed compartment and finds his friends on the sofa. He kicked Lam's leg and Lam got up.
With Forth the team left the hospital.
Forth's study room at home,
Forth changed his hospital gown and now sits in his study, with his team. No one was talking, Forth was also sitting there resting his head on the chair's headboard.
Lam breaks the silence, " Forth say something ?"
Max walked near his work desk and sat in front of him. " What happened man ? We are friends, if you have some problem just talk."
Other also join them,
" Forth, even if it's about Beam, you can still talk to us. Max is right, we are Friends before any business and you know that." Park said.
" Max, remember when Charles shot you in the heart and the bullet was only an inch away. Before that Tul shot you but far away from your heart. Which one causes more pain ?" Forth asked.
" Hmmmmm " Max smiled, " Not a single wound was pain full. But the moment Tul raises the gun on me. A pain aroused in my heart. Still the last point I was praying to God, for giving me back my love. I can't bear Tul's ignorance." Max said while holding Tul's hand.
" I am so..." Tul tried to say something.
" No need. The time has passed. Now we are happy, that is what matters. Right ?" Max asked and Tul nodded.
A smile form on Forth's face,
" What happened Forth ? Are you in trouble because of Beam ? Tell me. We will listen to you." Lam said.
" Lam, some days ago you asked me. Why is he controlling me ?" Lam nodded his head, " I lied to you. I love him." Forth said and all the eyes in room go wide. " I really thought at first that because he is good in bed I am attracted to him. But what I have been suffering for the last 3 days was like hell. And the pain I felt when today when he turned away from me is beyond my limit. It's like someone is pulling my heart out of my body when I am still alive. Remember I fainted again in hospital ? " He asked his friends and they nodded. " Beam detached him again from me. My vision blurred and it's like my soul left my body. I am thinking here, what will I do if he really leaves me one day ? Would I die ? On the basis of my today's condition, I will definitely die." He said, holding a smile on his lips.
" You gonna dia. Why are you smiling then ?" Lam asked.
" I don't know whenever his name pops into my mind a smile forms on my lips, without my consideration." Forth said.
" Don't worry Forth, if anything happens to you Lam will burry Beam alive in the same coffin so you can rest in peace." Tul said and all chuckled.
" I decided. I don't want this vulnerable feeling with me. If my heart is causing this conflict to me I will cut it out from my body. Bright will not harm Beam because he is like a brother to him, but if others knew about this, Beam would become their ultimate target. I have to take extreme measures for his safety." Forth just completed his sentence and the study door opens with a thud.
" Please tell him to stop coming to your personal study like this." Lam rolled his eyes as Beam walked up to Forth panting heavily as Forth only nodded.
His team walked toward door eyeing Beam, they signed Rome to go out with them.
Lam stopped on the door, " And Forth I mean it what Tul said sometime ago. Please take care." He said while closing the door.
