Kimmon's POV

The moment we heard Bas' cry for help, we all stood up from where we were seated. Actually P'Tae  was the first to be up on his feet and was already running in the direction of the vegetable garden. The rest of us followed closely.

Shit, the vegetable garden was empty when we got there and the wooden gate leading to the mini cottage was left slightly open!

P'Tae flung the gate open wider and ran in the direction of the mini cottage with the rest of us not far behind.

When we got inside, Ptae asked, "Okay, who between the two of you cried for help?"

Why would he even ask when it was obviously Bas who cried for help. However when I looked closely, Bas had been the one ripping open Godt's shirt and Godt quickly bent over and pulled his shirt together to cover his bare chest when he saw us staring.

Bas turned to us, smiling sheepishly.

"I'm sorry, P's" he said, "I was only playing with P'Godt."

We slowly walked back to where we came from to give the two love birds some privacy.

As I walked back with the others to the main cottage, I wondered who between the two of them confessed first. Well, it didn't really matter. I just wished that I had the guts to do the same to Copter. I stole a quick glance at him as he was walking beside Tee. He was looking down on the ground, seemingly deep in thought. I would have given a million bahts to know what was going on in his mind.

Tee's POV

I wasn't too surprised to stumble upon the intimate scene between Godt and Bas. I had already some kind of inkling that Godt was carrying a torch for Bas. I had some doubts with Bas, though,  because of the Kong incident. But now, I guess, it has been confirmed that both of them had something going for each other.

I wished, with an aching heart, that before our vacation was over, that I could decipher in some way whether P'Tae felt something for me. I mean, he did kiss me and almost did more than kiss me if we had not been interrupted by Copter and Godt, but he had not said a single thing about how he felt for me. He could have just been reacting to my physical nearness and gave in to the temptation of taking what I was obviously offering.

I observed him secretly as he went about preparing our lunch. Copter was standing closely by his side cutting up the ingredients that he needed for whatever dish it was that he was trying to put together.

P'Tae bent to whisper something in Copter's ears and Copter smiled shyly, his cheeks turning pink.

I felt a painful tug of jealousy.  Did he confess to Copter that he liked Copter? Was he emboldened to do so after witnessing how Godt and Bas found the courage to confess to each other their secret feelings? My breathing started to turn shallow.

I had been planning to help P'Tae cook lunch but I guess I would only end up being a third wheel. P'Kim was at the other end of the kitchen busy taking care of cooking the rice and was probably not even aware of what was going on between P'Tae and Copter.

I decided to step out of the cottage to get some fresh air. I badly needed to get some air. My chest was starting to grow tight.
