Win's POV
What the heck does Sapol want right now? I asked myself when I saw on my screen who was calling me. I was already starting to enjoy the feel of Ohm's warm arms around me when Sapol had to go and interrupt Ohm's and my fuzzy feeling moment.
I swiped my phone screen.
"Sapol?" I said in greeting.
"Hey, love," I heard him say.
I winced. I did not want to hear him calling me that because we were no longer together.
"I was wondering if you could make it to my birthday celebration next week."
Oh shit, I had totally forgotten about his birthday.
I was tempted to lie and say that I was going to have exams on that day but then if he found out that the semester had ended by then, I didn't want to get caught in a lie.
"I could but I don't know what present to buy for you. You already have everything that money can buy," I replied.
"Win, you already know what I want," he said, "and it's not something material."
When I kept quiet he continued, "I want your love. You know that."
"I'm afraid that's something I can't give you," I said, trying to make my voice sound regretful.
I heard him sigh into his phone.
"At least make me happy on my birthday with your presence," I heard him say.
"What time do I have to be there?" I asked.
"You can come over any time. The earlier the better," he replied.
"Very well, then," I said. "You can expect me to attend your birthday party."
"Thank you, Win," Sapol said, his voice starting to sound emotional. "I love you so much, you know that." I heard the catch in his voice.
I could not say the same to him so I just said, "See you next week, Sapol" and cut the call.
I walked back into Ohm's kitchen. He had already laid out the bacon tomato scallion omelettes on two separate plates. Beside each omelette he had placed a large oblong garlic bread which looked really crunchy. I grabbed one and bit into. Mmm... it was indeed crunchy and tasty.
I saw Ohm's smile.
"I'm always happy to see anyone enjoying the dishes that I have put together," he said, his smile widening when he saw me form a circle with my thumb and index finger.
Just after we finished eating every single crumb of our omelettes and garlic bread, my alarm sounded indicating that I had half an hour to get ready for my class.
I looked at Ohm with a regretful face before downing the last few drops of my orange juice.
"Thank you for a wonderful breakfast," I said sincerely to Ohm.
"If you want to really thank me, do it with a kiss and an embrace," Ohm said. Did I hear his voice quivering?
I slowly walked over to where he was standing with his arms outstretched.
I walked into them and they encircled me completely. Once more I savored the warmth of his strong arms.
I placed my hands on either side of his face.
He closed his eyes as my face slowly approached his.
The moment my lips touched his, I felt him grab the back of my neck and felt him deepen the kiss.
I was starting to enjoy the feel of his tongue caressing the tip of mine when I suddenly remembered that I was going to be late for my class if we did not get going right away.
"Ohm!" I said, breaking the kiss and stepping out of his embrace, "I will be late for my class!"
"Let's go then," he said, sounding very unhappy.
"I'm afraid you will have to drop me off right in front of the building where my classes are," I told Ohm, "otherwise I won't be able to make it on time."
"Sure," Ohm said, still sounding unhappy.
I turned to Ohm when he stopped in front of my building.
"Thanks for the breakfast and for the ride," I said.
He did not reply. Instead he reached out for my neck and planted a kiss on my lips.
"I will be thinking the whole day of you," he said almost in a whisper when we broke the kiss.
I couldn't respond with "Me, too" because that would be lying to him.
"Thanks again," I said before stepping out of his car.
As soon as I stepped on the curb, I realized that Bright was standing just a few yards away from where Ohm had parked his car.
He had seen the kiss that Ohm and I had just shared. I was sure of that.
When I saw him turn and start walking away, I was tempted to run after him but I knew that if I were to do that I was going to be late for class. Besides what was my guarantee that he was going to listen to me.
I said a silent prayer that Bright would not press me for an explanation when I got back to our dorm room before entering my classroom.
