KINNPORSCHE CHAPTER 5
Ep. 5 Choice
-Kinn-
I
sat crossed on the sofa with my weapon in hand, staring at the wooden
dragon pattern door. Concentrate on someone coming. The guy I am playing
now is in a fun battle.
"He
has arrived, sir." Before long, the large door opened and a tall figure
appeared. The tattoo under the white camel was so striking that I
couldn't help but take a glance at it. His eyes took note of the
situation around him, before stopping in front of me and staring for a
long time.
“Sit!” Big pushed him to sit on the sofa in front of me.
“…”
Silence enveloped the entire room. No one said anything, neither did I.
He glared at me and I looked back at him so hard that we looked at each
other and no one gave up.
“What
do you want …” he said in a calm, low voice. His confident eyes turned
alert and harbored a kind of suspicion that I had never seen. He glanced
at the bodyguard standing behind in a black mask. His face was
terrified.
“Come
and work with me,” I said without taking my gaze from him. As soon as I
finished my sentence, his usual harsh voice suddenly resounded again.
“No!”
“Huh
… you’re more stubborn than I thought,” I laughed. Before looking at
his attitude and analyzing his behavior. Porsche is an aggressive
stubborn man, trying to look tough to hide some of his feelings inside.
More importantly, he has high intolerance and tends to reject new
people. Even though I’m oonly in my early twenties. But I’ve been
through a lot, the things around me have shaped me as someone who can
see people’s flaws. And know how to care for someone.
“Why are you doing this?”
“What did I do?” I raised a small smile.
“You disturb the people around me, mess up my work and you hunt me down just to want me to work with you.”
“Yes…”
“You
messed up at my work and threatened Che Jade so I wouldn’t have a job.
You purposely overturned my nerves about this damn thing. You know that
he’s a different person.”
“Ah, about a man named Jom ?! I intend to teach you who dared to trick me.” I keep staring at him.
“Don’t disturb the people around me!”
“And
if I didn’t do that, would you come to me today?” I saw a look that
seemed impatient. That’s great because, like this, he will enter my game
very easily. If he uses his strength to face Porsche, he will never
give up and will fight with all his heart. But if you use the pressure
method using the people around him, he will be cornered into a corner
like now.
Don’t
tell me that I’m bad. Because I tried to negotiate with him, but he
didn’t listen. If there weren’t any problems soon, I wouldn’t have held
this many cards. And this stubborn person has always liked opposing me,
so I have to tell him he’s dealing with the wrong person …
“Why me … Why do you want me so badly?” He said angrily,
“Because
someone like me never wants anything. And they don’t.” At the end of my
sentence, I smiled. He also looks at me a little. Selfish words, but
they are true. Because at home, my father has power in owning the
environment. I grew up comfortably. If I want something everyone is
prepared to get it. And even if what I want is harder to get and
requires effort, it only adds to the interest in owning it. Like this
time.
“And why should I follow your wishes?”
“Let me tell you. If you offend someone like me, what do you think will happen?”
“Who do you think you are! Just do what you are and talk selfishly like that !!!” Suddenly he got up from the sofa.
All
my subordinates entered and surrounded him. Until he stopped and looked
around. His eyes were terrified before slamming himself onto the sofa.
It doesn’t matter how strong he is, but if he had to face my nearly ten
bodyguards who surrounded him, anyone would naturally be afraid. Because
this is my place, he doesn’t dare go on a rampage.
“Porsche,
I know people like you don’t like being forced. But since you’re such a
good person, I just wanted to go along the way.” I changed my sitting
position. Bend down and put your arms down and your forelegs. I intend
to talk seriously.
“I won’t do it.” He said, still in a loud voice.
“You
guys go out first.” I sent my subordinates away because, after this, I
will discuss the details of my offer to him and don’t want any of my
subordinates to know. After all, they will feel inequality.
“But
.. Khun Kinn …” Big protested and I immediately looked back with fierce
eyes, not letting it finish. “Hey … !! If you do something to Khun
Kinn, I will kill you!”
Before
he left, Big pointed at the Porsche’s face and told him. Before Porsche
was getting frustrated. He lifted his leg to kick the sofa nearby.
Chasing my other subordinates and shouting curses.
“Of course, you and your sandbags!” He scoffed, making Big look away slightly and shut the door.
“Hey, I like your courage,” I said while shaking my head.
“I’ll
say it again. I want you to work for me. And you can say how much pay
you want.” I thought this was an offer that might be easy because people
like Porsche need money.
“… one million per month. Can you pay me?” I saw him with a smile. He is something.
“So cute! What do you have to offer, based on the truth?”
“It’s
based on reality. You want me so badly, so I think a million a month
makes sense. For a footballer, they make up to ten million. So I guess a
million is enough.” He changed his sitting position to a more relaxed
one, leaning back on the sofa comfortably. Hemmh, so he thinks it’s
negotiable now ..
“But
you are not a footballer … You must be thinking that you will work for
me for a month and redeem your house. After that ignore me.” I realized
what he was thinking, until he turned around with a slightly surprised
face. I wasn’t surprised by the expression he put on. I can read
everything. Don’t even think of messing with me!
“Then I won’t …”
“I
wonder, for three hundred and fifty a day at your tavern, when are you
going to raise money to take your house back? … Hmm, ten years? Not
forty years? … I can’t count it.” I already feel like a winner here.
“I have my own way!” He hurried into the garden.
“Got
?!” I developed my smirk and phoned my subordinates who were already
getting ready in front of the new liquor store, where Porsche works. “Do
it!” I ordered someone on the other side of the phone. Hear that, the
curious Porsche looked at me.
“What would you do?”
“Wait
and see,” I said, standing up, walking to the opposite table and
tapping the coffee machine quietly as I glanced at the clock. Inside the
room there was complete silence, I just looked at his back with a
smile. He was still sitting in the same place, but looked like he was
looking at his cellphone screen.
Rrrrr [Porsche phone rings]
“Yes, Phi Q?”
[I
fired you !!!!] The sound from across there was loud enough that I
heard it. He smiled bitterly before getting up, his face looked so angry
that his body trembled. Those ferocious eyes stared at me and I smiled
back at him.
“Shia
Kinn !!!!” This threw the phone at me. I didn’t avoid it. The solid
object slammed into the tail of my brow, until I felt blood pouring out.
I’m very angry now, enough I collide! My two feet quickly stepped
towards him, before using one hand to tighten his neck and push his body
against the wall. He seemed surprised and unsure what I did to him. He
squirms from my hand, but I can tell that my emotions are soaring up
that I have more energy than usual.
“I
speak to you well!” I said in a deep voice. I don’t know how angry I am
when I see him now. When our eyes met, the hand that was trying to push
and wriggle remained still. I saw a flicker of fear in those eyes. I
loosened my grip but didn’t let go.
“Cough, cough.”
“If you don’t manipulate and play with me, I won’t be angry with you ..”
“What am I doing?”
“You
pretended to be someone else, hit and bite my neck until it hurt. And
you also avoided me. Even though I swore at first I didn’t want to use
this method at all, but you annoyed me from the time I looked for you at
the university to the club where you worked. And not finding someone
named Jom. Plus, it hurt my pride, while I haven’t done anything.”
“I’m satisfied to do it … and … you don’t have to expect me to fulfill your wish !! Foolish !!!”
My
frustration is getting worse. I unconsciously pressed and lifted his
body against the wall until he floated in the air. The saliva on my face
made me even angrier. I don’t care how much effort Porsche tries to get
rid of itself that is choking on my grip. I almost wanted to kill the
person in front of me as soon as the liquid ran down my cheek until I
had to scrape it off with my free hand.
“Since
birth, no one has ever done this to me!!!” I gritted my teeth tightly.
My hand that was holding it shook until his neck was about to crush.
“Khun
Kinn !!! Khun Kinn … let go!” I don’t even know when they entered the
room. P’Chan came in and let go of my hand along with some of the
underlings who were holding me. Until I have to let it go. Porsche’s
body falls to the ground. The sound of breath that brought air to his
lungs was gasping with a cough so loud it seemed as if he was going to
die.
“What are you doing!” Father’s voice came from behind. I flicked my arm from the grip under me and looked away.
“Are you alright?” P’Chan’s voice was heard asking Porsche and lifting it to sit back on the sofa.
“Father let you approach him to make him a bodyguard. Not to come and kill him!”
“You go out and calm yourself first. Daddy takes over from here.”
PORSCHE –
I
took a deep breath. Still shocked by the current situation, the gaze of
the person looking at me horrified me because I had never seen that
gaze before. The gaze of the terrifying angel of death scared me so much
that I couldn’t even move. It was as if everything around me stood
still. I could only be stunned when I saw the person in front of me
turned into a different person from the one I’ve ever met ..
I
was carried by someone to sit on the sofa. A tingling sensation in the
neck replaces fear. I feel pain and uncomfortable breath now, like I’m
drowning and dying.
“..
I don’t know what happened between you and Kinn. But I’m sorry for
that.” The deep voice made me look away. My consciousness which was
about to disappear, still can’t understand the current situation. All I
know, is currently a quiet and scary middle-aged man sitting in front of
me.
“Drink
up first”. I didn’t hesitate to take the drink because I kept coughing
until my throat was dry and sore. I closed my eyes slightly as the cold
water flowed down my neck and made me feel relieved.
“I
heard that you don’t want to work for me?” I lifted my head to look at
the figure of the man ahead again. Looks like he’s the most powerful.
From the way he sat and spoke, very respectable. And I think this is
Kinn’s dad.
“No,” I answered, hardly paying with a hoarse voice.
“Why?” He asked immediately.
“I
… don’t want to complicate my own life … It’s too risky and I don’t
want to mess it up …” Now Kinn has changed my view of him. I don’t even
want to think about it.
“Your
life has been threatened from the first time you saved Kinn … Do you
think the other party won’t bother you like Kinn did? I think they might
do more.” He said in a calm tone. Those eyes looked at me carefully.
“What
do you mean?” I asked back. Why is my life in danger? And what else
might the other party do to me? My life today became cursed, it’s all
because of Kinn!
“A
great man like you, who won a battle with top boxers from all over the
country? Of course, they would never just let you go.” I don’t know who
is he talking about? Who will never let me go? But even so, I know he’s
trying to convince me.
“No … I still won’t do it.”
“I heard that you are Athie’s nephew, right?”
“If you agree, your life will be safe.”
“I
don’t care about him. Go ahead and kill him. If you try to convince me
with this the method, you can forget about it because it won’t work.”
“Well
life is this bad, you won’t appreciate it.” He pulled his hand back
onto the sofa in a relaxed manner. I remember that incident, the person
who brought me to this place is because of Uncle Athie and Kinn !!
“I
will excuse myself … and please tell Kinn not to threaten the people
around me again.” But the words I heard afterward, made me look back
hastily.
“Even if Kinn doesn’t do it, someone else will. You will have tougher problems … I heard, you have a younger brother?”
“Don’t mess with my brother!” I answered in a stiff voice, looking at the old man’s face.
“No, I wouldn’t do something like that.”
“…”
A distinctive laugh like Kinn’s made me believe that what I was expecting was true.
“But
if you accept this job, I will give you fifty thousand a month … it
will make your two lives comfortable. Or do you want your brother to
have a hard time …?” Words that seemed oppressive, were inversely
proportional to words that looked weak when looking at me. Eyes that are
hard to read make me clueless …
“Because
I don’t want my brother to be sad, so I don’t want to,” I said
honestly. Because even though I don’t do it, I and the people around me
are always in conflict.
“A
great person like you probably won’t die so easily. Think about how to
make your brother feel better? Before thinking about life and death.
Then I want to make another offer. If you agree … I promise to take good
care of your brother. He won’t get in trouble and I’m going to send him
to graduate school.”
“…”
I
don’t understand why the offer is bigger than before. Why do these
people want me so badly? Is it just that I have a good foundation in
self-defense and combat?
“Accept it, because I want you … or do you want something more?” He opened his hands as if now I could ask for anything.
“Home!
I want my parents’ house back.” Because I know that it will be
difficult and impossible. I’m not sure what I said, but the response
surprised me.
“Yes … I can return it now.”
“…”
I could hardly believe my ears. My request was easily accepted by a man
who looks scary but has kind eyes. If I’m not mistaken to think he
seems very fond of me, very different from his personality.
“Do you want anything else?”
“My
salary can’t be fifty thousand. I’m asking … one hundred thousand baht a
month.” I want to reinforce the thought that I can ask for what I want
and forget that I’m being cajoled.
“Wow … that’s expensive. Eighty thousand, can you?” He said with a laugh.
I
closed my mouth. The stressful atmosphere that was full of worry at
first, trtransformed into a calm atmosphere. I had to think that this
man in front of me is like my own father … both feelings, speaking
style, and eyesight. The image of my father and brother. Porsché
sprawled in my head. I once promised in front of my father’s body that I
would take good care of my brother and would not trouble him. But now, I
don’t even have his house. I became inclined to what he said and
glanced at the eyes of the guards as he threatening me.
Then think of more needs and will try to negotiate again.
“I
must be their leader.” The creature (guard) prepared to open its mouth
to say something, but Kinn’s father’s eyes stopped him.
“Haha,
it was destined like that.” The creatures were even angrier. I lifted
the corner of my mouth slightly at him. How can I not be satisfied with
this victory?
“And I’m not going to wear that crazy suit either! I’m going to wear normal clothes.”
“W…
is this position? Bodyguard or company president. Hahaha. I like it.”
He pointed at me and laughed I’m very relaxed so I raise my eyebrows to
ask back ..
“So, can I do it?”
“Yes! But only indoors. When outside I want each other to look the same because it won’t look good.”
“Mm …”
“In short … like this time, right?”
Then I remembered something … being a bodyguard, means Kinn’s bodyguard, right?
“What if that Kinn kills me?”
“I definitely won’t let him do that.”
“How can I trust that you will keep your promises about keeping my brother safe and about my house?”
“Huh
… you should already know who I am. Up to this point, I never have hurt
my dignity by not keeping promises… What should I say?” said his stern
voice. This is not the same as claiming property and he is more
trustworthy.
"..."
I'm still thinking about everything. Try to find contradictions and
take the first position that I will never accept this job.
"If your brother’s comfort and safety comes at the cost of your life, it is very risky. So do it now."
"...
I'll try to think." I'll take the time to think things through. Right
now I'm confused. I do not want to accept this offer, but I am very
tempted by the offer. I miss the image of Ché who will eat and live
comfortably. But the image of crying that day repeatedly swirled in my
head, making the decision even more difficult.
"When
can you provide an answer?" A dark voice asked before I made up my mind
I realized there was another story though I don't want to count my
uncle in it, at least he is the person my father loves.
"...
I ask one more thing." he gestured me to speak. "If I agree ... give me
some time, ah, can you delay repaying the debt?" The frontman smiled
before nodding his head.
"Certain." He said.
"Tomorrow ... tomorrow I will give an answer."
After
that conversation, I returned with my motorbike. Leaving all the
questions that keep repeating in my brain. What should I do? The choice I
will make will be the point that changes my life. If I agree, my sister
will have a better life. Ah, I'll be relieved to see him. But if I
answered no. I just have to find a new job and save up to make up for
the house, decided my brother's relationship with Athie and my brother
will go through hard times, but at the expense of peace of mind ...
Which one should I choose?
...
..
.
[Conversation between Khun Kon and Chan]
"Why are you giving him that much? He's too demanding. Just take it off. Great people don't seem the only ones."
"At first I thought like that. If it's difficult, I don't want him to become a serious nuisance."
"So what for?"
"Because I know whose son the Porsche is ..."
