[Minor Family House]
Author'sPOV:
Vegas just came back to his house after buying curry for Pete. He still have no idea why would anyone wanted to eat this kind of food. He remembers the first time he tried to eat the curry, he saw the hell fire.
Pete was eating it happily. And Vegas was thinking even if you offer millions to him he would never going to eat that hell food again. He even once thought to torture his enemies by making them eat this southern curry. Ha ha!
"What are you thinking Wegath?" Pete asked with his mouthful.
"I .... nothing.. why?"
"Umm.. it's just that you kept staring at my plate so I thought you wanted it too. You want to share."
"Hellno!"
Pete tried to hide his smile. He loves to tease Vegas, only sometimes.
.
.
Pete was staring at his phone as if he was memorizing something.
"What are you doing?"
"Nn... nothing." He said while making sure Vegas can't see the screen of his phone.
Vegas stare at him a little more than a second Pete thought that he would snatch his cellphone.
"Okaythen." He was surprised when Vegas steps back.
'Maybe he finally learned how to give some space and respects to others privacy.' Pete was talking to himself.
While on the other side of the room Vegas was sitting and waiting for Pete to go outside the room or to the bathroom or literally anywhere.. so that he can check his phone secretly.
He noticed Pete's behavior all day. He was secretly exchanging message with someone. Not just that he seems quite worried and kept mumbling to himself. Something is troubling him, but what?
Vegas was lost in his thought when his phone vibrates. Screen shows a new message.
From Kim:
"Golden advice:
It'll be better if you bring some HELP to handle Khun."
What the hell! Vegas was going to put his cellphone away when his phone vibrated again. Another message.
From Kinn:
"Hey Vegas!
I don't know about you but I'm sure Pete wanted to see Khun in his college uniform.
Arm told me that he keeps texting him all day, asking about Khun and some other college stuff...
Pete even asked for the blueprints of our college. Can you believe that!
So I was just wondering if you can bring Pete too. That would be a win-win for everyone. Then you don't have to handle Khun much, maybe after seeing Pete he would followed you on his own.
Just think about it."
After reading the message Vegas glance at Pete who was engrossed in his cellphone. So this is what Kim was talking about. Vegas left the room just to laugh hard. Because his Pete was freaking memorizing the whole college blueprints for that crazy Khun.

Early morning:
"Hey Pete. Wake up."
"What... what happened? Are we under attack!?"
"Wha- No. Nothing happened. Just get ready we have to go somewhere." Vegas said.
"Where?"
"Mainfamily'shouse."
"Wh...why? What happened? Is Khun ok?" Pete eyes flew open.
"Yeah.. maybe.. I don't know." Vegas shrugged.
"..."
"Come on get dressed we are going to see crazy cousin and then drop him off at college." Vegas explained unlike his personality.
For a second Pete couldn't believe on his ears. Is he heard right? Is it a dream? Is Vegas has a fever or something?
"Come on.. hurry up... lazy bones." Vegas snapped his fingers few times I'm front of his face.
Pete's eyes brightens and he smiled from ear to ear and ran for his closet as fast as he can just in case Vegas changed his mind.
.
.
Vegas was patiently waiting in his car for Pete and his crazy cousin to come while Khun throwing his usual tantrum.
As expected Khun came with his guards carrying him from everywhere, he was kicking in air.
Pete's photo, Pete's photo, Pete's photo...
He tried to keep his cool while chanting the same words in his head over and over again.
'I can't believe I am waiting for the crazy cousin!' He closed his eyes to relaxed himself a bit.
Pete sat with Khun in the backseat. And Vegas almost got blind when he tried to see them through rearview mirror, as sunlight reflected Khun's Golden outfit. Vegas almost threw him outside the car, hell with the deal with Kinn. He will just send someone to steal that photo.
He sighed under his breath.
Pete's photo, Pete's photo, Pete's photo...
He reminded himself for the thousandth time.
But as always they didn't last for more than two minutes and started fighting. It's all because of that crazy Khun. He always speak some nonsense about taking Pete back, 'as if that's ever gonna happen'. But still it makes him angry.
Vegas was mad at him, and in his madness he started driving rashly just to scare the hell out of his crazy cousin. Mu Ha ha ha.
He knew that Pete is strong enough to endure this but for that lousy idiot... He kept screaming like crazy. Vegas was satisfied as hell but Pete look disappointed so he has to threw all the fun outside the window, and slow down the driving speed.
Then Pete had to deal with not only Khun's unsettling condition but also his crazy outfit.
Pete proves to be a really great help. He makes Khun more humanlike. Vegas can't do that alone for sure.
They were arguing like kids. Suddenly bloody Khun ran out of his car. And then Pete followed him. And Vegas was on the edge of loosing all of his patience. 'should I just shoot my crazy cousin...! Maybe not because that would make Pete sad..' he thought to himself and took a deep breath before running out after them.
When Vegas came his crazy cousin and some random guy was arguing. Actually it was one-sided argument because for some reason Khun was quiet... Something is off..
Then Vegas saw a.... Girl!
That guy was shouting, Khun remain silent, and Pete was ready to take action. But he doesn't want to make a scene so he just stand besides Khun and smiled awkwardly. Then Vegas had to step in.
It's not even ten minutes and his crazy cousin found himself trouble. Great way to start first day of college! Now he know why Kinn asked him to come with crazy cousin. As soon as that stupid guy seen Vegas he ran for his life. Well that's good.. Pete looked at him and smiled because he knew the ghost that scared that guy off.
Now only these three and that girl remains. Vegas and Pete was standing as if they were waiting for Khun to say something first. Then Vegas noticed his line of sight.
'Is he checking that girl out?' Vegas didn't have any idea how to react at first, then it hit him.
Bloody love at first sight!
That girl stand in front of crazy cousin and smiled at him. 'Is she wooing him? Maybe not...' Vegas thought. She was smiling like... Pete!! Then she tried to brush her front hair a little, Vegas noticed her hand.
'Don't tell me that jerk from earlier hurt her! If only I see him again.. wait why would I care...?'Vegas was thinking, still observing people in front of him.
"Does my sparkle burn your eyes?" That came out of his crazy cousin's mouth. Vegas was slightly impressed 'what a pick up line!'
"What are you mute or something?" He said again. Bloody King of idiots. Vegas almost slapped his own forehead. 'That's not how you talk to someone you're interested in.. stupid!'.
Pete tried to stop him while smiling awkwardly at the girl, weirdly enough that girl didn't seems to mind, she even smiled back at Pete and turned to leave. Khun seemed a little uneasy as if he doesn't want that girl to leave. Woah!
"Where are you going you ungrateful brat!" Khun yelled and hearing this Vegas almost almost cut his voice box out with his pocket knife.
That girl stopped and said thank you but she didn't seems to be thankful at all, she didn't even look at his face. Haha!
"Who gave you the permission to leave...." Khun shouted again but this time way too loud that the girl almost tripped.
What happened next was a quite spectacular sight. She yelled back at crazy Tankhun leaving HIM speechless. People around them also stopped in their tracks to watch. Vegas low-key wanted to record everything in his cellphone. But then he saw a CCTV camera. He make a mental note to take the footage of this out-of-the-world dramatic scene and then played it in home theater of Main family's house.
When the girl was done scolding, Khun came back to his normal self, if that's okay to say. He was blabbering like a spoiled child and Pete was making him stop.
"... interesting..." Vegas said out loud. He didn't realize that he was smiling at her this whole time. She heard him and.... smiled back at him. Woah! That's something new. Except Pete and Macau no one gives him smiles, not a genuine one at least.
Pete was still trying to calm crazy Khun down. Then the interesting girl looked at Vegas and promised him to say HI in the future if they ever met (which they definitely would) then she turned to Pete while smiling at both of them. Vegas almost Burst out laughing when she ignored his crazy cousin while giving him a beautiful pokerface. That was enough to burn Khun alive.
What a memorable day!
But before she was gone she whispered something to crazy cousin. Vegas was not that curious to know what had she said but after watching Khun's reaction both Vegas and Pete was dying to know. The way Tankhun was staring at her back.... for some reason he wasn't look like the same crazy cousin who goes around shouting all day long.
Vegas was finally felt happy that he came. Kinn and Kim have no idea what they missed. As for crazy Tankhun... Well he met his match at last. And for that unique girl... her life is not going to be peaceful anymore.
