Porsche

I spent the night at the small house I bought somewhere out of town. Not even Porchay or Kinn knew this place. In the morning, while I prepared a some noodles to eat, I looked out the window to see a car parked outside.

The only people who knew this place was the organization and that is because they easily tracked my phone.

While I checked to know who the owner was, my phone vibrated in my pocket. It was a crypted message from the organization.

'Phoenix, the eagle wants to see you now.'

A black sedan with tinted windows was waiting for me when I got outside. The driver, a handsome looking man with long hair tied to a ponytail, directed me to the backseat.

He opened the door to back, I looked in and the boss was sitting there. I rolled my neck. and I entered and sat down beside him.

"Buona sera signore," I greeted.

"Buona serata, how are you doing?"

I nodded. We switched to English language. "I am fine."

"How is work, give me a rating from 0-100?" He smiled.

"80."

"Ahhh," He waved his index finger at me. "that's poor. Are you sick?"

He stretched his hand and placed the back of his hand over my forehead. "You are running temperature?"

"No. I am fine."

"You have been my favorite man in this game."

"Thank you."

"Come with me to Italy. Forget about this tough life in Thailand yeah, anything you want I will give to you, money cars, houses, power... you tell me."

"I can't forget the memories of my parents, and I have my brother to care for..."

"Forget about your brother, he can fend for himself."

"No. I won't forget him. He is still a kid."

"Are you coming with me or not?"

The boss has always been this way with me. He had a soft spot for me but I preferred to keep my distance. Any answer I give here determines my future.
"Boss, I like the offer. I appreciate you looking out for me. But let me think about it."

"What is the update about the diamond?"

I took out my phone and showed him a picture of the diamond Kinn had in his possession.
"This piece is currently in Kinn's possession," I zoomed in closely. "Looking at it, you will see that it is fake."

"Oh really."

"Yes. There was a mistake or something, maybe someone switched the diamond and gave Kinn a different location."

"Who would have done that?"

"None other than Vegas."

"You're saying Vegas has the original piece,"

"Exactly,"

"And Kinn has no idea?"

"No. I decided not to tell him yet."

Boss narrowed his eyes as if to ask why wouldn't I tell Kinn, what is the point of hiding it. I just have to protect Kinn. He is caught up in this war. Vegas will be bloodthirsty holding on to that original piece.

"Let's keep it that way. Track the original piece, we can't have someone like Vegas handling such expensive rock. It's too much power."

"Yes sir."

The driver brought the car to a stop.
Boss relaxed on his seat. He took out a pack of expensive cigarette and gave to me, with a lighter. He placed his hand warmly on my shoulder.

"Watch your back."

I nodded and stepped out of the car. I looked and saw that they brought me to my secret cabin in the wood. My small home where I usually hide and plan my next move.

I lit a cigarette and puffed smoke into the air.

Kinn

It's been two days already. No matter how I tried I could not get Porsche off my mind. I swallowed my pride and called his phone number several times but he never answered my calls. I sent him messages, no reply.

I sulked in silence and isolation, while I drank more alcohol. A knock on the door brought me back to my senses.

The same knock. It was the third time today. Ken had come earlier asking me to have breakfast but I wasn't hungry. He also came during lunch, and I still wasn't hungry. I wonder if he was back.

I stood from my bed and went to open the door.

Chan eyed me. "Pa asked me to escort you to him."

I had no option now. I followed Chan to my Pa's favorite spot. The swimming pool area where he loved to play chess in his free time.

"Have a seat," he said.

I nodded and sat on the chair opposite him.
"We haven't done this in a while."

"Are you bored of playing with Chan?" I asked.

Pa laughed. "We don't use the word play in a war. How is work?"

"Work is running." I replied knowing fully well that I'm lying.

"Great to hear that. The work is getting tough this days and it needs your focus."

I exhaled. "Okay. You were right. Porsche is not who he says he is. I skipped work two days now, just to figure out how to deal with him."

"Don't lose power of running your business because of one man that you randomly sleep with."

I curved my eyebrows. "Pa,"

"Am I wrong?"

I breathed deeply. Sex meant nothing when I was with Porsche, he was my everything - until today.

"When you are at war, you must see the bigger picture, don't let one piece confuse you, and cost us every piece on the board. Like what happened to you before."

"Pa Don't worry. I'm not going to let it happen again."

Pa gestured to the chess board. "Good. Now let's play."
