Introduction
Bang!
Pap, pap, pap
“Hey, what happened to my baby!”
On a road in central Bangkok, a small European car was driving at the speed of a turtle due to traffic congestion since the evening. But then an explosion sounded from the front right wheel, followed by a strange sound of wheels scrunching against the road. Then the car started to shake slightly causing the driver to scream, gripping the steering wheel tightly. He could not dare to look up out of the window.
Right now, it’s definitely the end of you, Rain... damn!
For an eighteen-year-old boy who passed his driving test three months ago.
He took his father’s car off the road for less than two months; a tire explosion was like a disaster.
HONK HONK.
“Fuck! So, don’t rush me, so don’t rush me! What should I do first?”
The fool was helpless before an idea flashed in his head.
Well, my father said that if something happens, turn on the emergency lights first.
The brain can process immediately and Rain suddenly hit the emergency light button which seemed to give meaning to the car behind him because it turned on the turn signal to overtake him. This went on until his heart sank, but with the car being in the middle lane and getting stuck. He could not stop here, the rookie driver tried to support the car to the side of the road, but...
Pap-pa, Pap-pa, Pap-pa.
“Damn.”
Rain could only exclaim only one word when the sky had more and more drops of water falling onto the windshield so loudly that he wanted to raise his fist to the sky, shouting to ask if I wasn’t bad enough.
Now the car in the back knows that there’s something wrong with his car, but...what to do next!
At times like this, he can only do one thing.
“Papaaa, help me.”
He moved to try calling his beloved Papa.
Knock, Knock, Knock.
Ugh.
Before Rain could call his beloved father, he heard a startling knock on the car window, and then he was terrified until he trembled when he turned to see a man dressed in black leather, wearing a black helmet lined with red lights, straddling a huge big bike, looking down with a threatening look until Rain said to himself... I am done for.
Am I distracted to do something for you?!
If it was normal time, Rain would have sped away from him, but in a situation where his car’s wheels were torn and crashed into the road, he could only burst into tears.
Knock, Knock
The other party knocked harder; he pointed his finger at the wheel of the car that had probably burst.
“%>€!$^>!€¥¥.”
“Huh.”
Rain exclaimed, the sound that entered the car was so muffled that it was inaudible. So, he pressed the glass down, shouting through the rain.
“Phii, what’s wrong?”
When he asked, the other party opened his helmet, revealing only his eyes which was sharp as hawk eyes.
“There is a detour ahead, you moved the car and park there, I’ll check the wheels for you.”
“Really?!”
Rain stepped on the brake and put his feet on the edge of the window, his eyes widen and he asked happily, letting the person look at him a bit still, then nodded twice.
“I’ll check the problem for you.”
The owner of a beautiful big bike said that and he let Rain press gas and drive the car up ahead. Then he turned the car behind him and also helped to turn on the emergency signal to tell the cars behind him again that the car had broken down, causing the person who has just encountered the disaster to smile, but the smile suddenly stops as he remembers.
Wait! What if I park and get hijacked?
A young man born in the city, who saw the news of the robbery in LINE links that his mother sent to him every day and secretly felt panicked. But he was comforted that he might not be one of them and there were a lot of cars around here. If something comes up, he was sure the news will be posted on Twitter for sure.
Well, even if he calls Dad. It’s probably past midnight until his father comes so he has to take some risks.
The idea of someone who looks in the rear-view mirror and he found that Bike Guy prevented other cars from turning left easily. until the newbie drove the car safely to the detour even if the whistling sounds a bit nerve-wracking.
Now parked, but it’s me. Will I survive Bike Guy?
The owner of the car secretly glanced at the rear-view mirror again and found that the leather jacket man was taking a beautiful big bike to park another car behind him. Turn on the light signal to let other cars turn to know that there is a broken car here. Then he took a long step closer to the driver’s side, bent down, and knocked on the window until the young man was startled.
“Yes, Phii.”
“Your tire has punctured; do you have a spare tire?”
Well, this good person is not as bad as a jujube leaf!
Even though he didn’t trust him much, since he gave him help, he wasn’t a headstrong robber with the danger like the one his Mama filled his ears every day. Rain walked down and opened the boot, pointed to the other side of the spare wheel and all the mechanics, but honestly, he couldn’t do it himself.
All of these belong to his father.
“Can you use it like this? Phii.”
“Have you ever changed a tire before?”
Rain shakes his head.
“So, that’s it.”
Bike Guy muttered and glanced at the sky.
“So, you wait in the car, the rain will fall harder, I will take care of this for you.”
“But...”
“Why not? If you stay, you will be in the way.”
So, teach me!
Rain wanted to reply back to him, but when he saw his sharp gaze, combined with the heavy rain pouring down his head, he was unable to argue. He simply stepped into the car, letting the Bike Guy take the jack to lift the car in front. Do you believe it? With a couple of touches, Rain could feel that his car was easily raised, he could tell it was a very professional one.
The rain still wasn’t letting up and Rain could only raise his head anxiously to look at the other person. Well, if this guy didn’t have a waterproof leather jacket and a cool helmet, his head would have been completely drenched by now. But that doesn’t mean the pants are still soaked inside. The young man decided to climb into the backseat, grabbed an umbrella, and spread it out of the car.
“Even though I can’t help you change the tire, I can hold an umbrella so you don’t get wet...is there anything I can help you with?”
The young man worriedly held out an umbrella to cover the rain, bowing his head, and asked the man who had already taken out the old wheels and was actively replacing the spare wheels. He looked up to meet his eyes, which if he hadn’t thought for himself. He had thought that Bike Guy Bike was smiling because his eyes had softened. Then, the other party bent down again, taking off the helmet.
“You hold it to me.”
Rain quickly received the helmet and held it in one hand. He observes the man who bends his head to tighten the bolt and he couldn’t see his face, only to see that the other person is a very big man, with very broad shoulders. When he moved the screwdriver, this scapula muscle moved visibly even though it was covered with a leather jacket. The dark hair and long enough to be tied roughly to the nape of the neck, look sultry, savage, if it’s manly enough to get people’s attention.
Now the robbery story has been blown out of his head, he was left only thought of thanks plus...so cool!
A big man drives a big bike. Plus, changing the wheels...this is super manly!
The young man glanced at the beautiful big bike, then turned to look at the man who volunteered to change the wheel for him gratefully. Even though this guy is a bit fierce, to be honest, how many times in his life will he be lucky to find such a good person to help him? His figured lips began to shift into a broad smile.
“Thank you very much Phii. If you hadn’t helped, I wouldn’t even know what to do.”
“If you want to drive, you should learn how to take care of the car as well, so don’t just learn how to drive when you face a problem at least you should be able to solve the problem yourself. Alright, it’s done.” Rain felt scolded but when the car was back on track. He was able to let those words float through his ears and forget them and was only happy to go home to take a shower and sleep for a while. He nodded grimly, listening to the instruction well.
As the other party managed to remove the jack, he stood to his full height and that made Rain feel that he was too small. But this wasn’t the thing that caught his attention the most, it was... the sharp face that turned around to meet his eyes.
“...”
“Move back, Nong, I’ll take this tire and keep it for you.”
The young man took a step back, while still staring at the other man with big eyes.
As for Bike Guy, he moved the punctured tire to the back of the car recklessly. Then put your hand in front of you.
“Can I have the helmet back?”
But Rain said just...
“Soo handsome.”
The young man is sure that even if the Faculty Moon this year was here, he will exclaim the same thing this year!
The Bike Guy who had long hair that can’t be tied to the nape of his neck is not only high but when he takes off his helmet his eyes are as sharp as the hawk on a prowl. When that is coupled with dark eyebrows, a prominent nose, and thin lips, within the sharp frame of the face with faint mustaches he looks so good that he wanted to shout out to the world that this is a real man. How much will anyone pay to have this dark handsome to possess them?
If I was handsome like this, I would flirt with any girl.
“Thank.”
The handsome man suddenly realized that he had just slipped out of his delirium, but snapped at himself as loudly as if he had been slapped. The only thing left was the gloomy eyes that just realized that he had just seen a stranger who had just met for the first time and that he was raving like the Bike Guy was a friend in the faculty even though they just met. The handsome man had a calm face and then just smiled which made Rain’s heart twitch.
“Thanks for the compliment and I was asking for this back.”
Rain froze when the wishful handsome face leaned in until it almost touched his cheek. He was so shocked that he almost pushed the other man if it wasn’t for the big hand just pulling the helmet back. As the wind blew with the rain, a manly scent filled his nose. The young man realizes that his mind was drifting away.
Why did he dodge, he didn’t know. He knew but inside his chest was trembling.
The handsome guy went back to standing up straight again and put his helmet on and that was enough to make Rain breathe a little better.
“As for you, don’t throw your tires on the side of the road again! You should go back soon! It’s raining like this, hopefully, you won’t be sick.”
The person who was listening, quickly nodded, each tentatively wondering if we should wait for his elder brother first.
“Get in the car! Hurry, I have to rush too.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Rain quickly got into the car as instructed, stuffing a wet umbrella in the driver’s footstool. He glanced in the rearview mirror again and saw that the tall bike guy got straddled over the beautiful big bike but he hadn’t left yet.
If he hadn’t thought that he was seeing things in his mind he would have known that the eyes behind the helmet were looking straight at his car. As the rain became heavier, he realized that if he didn’t move his car first, the good citizen who helped fix his car wouldn’t have gone either. So, he quickly started the car and drove off with twinkling eyes, his mouth couldn’t hold back a smile.
The young man looked in the rearview mirror again and saw that the other party raised his hand as a goodbye. Then accelerate the cool big bike toward the parallel detour and sail away, as for him?
“Dammit!”
He can only shout in the car excitedly, he feels that he just saw the hero riding a white horse alive this time, but this is way cooler than a white horse because the hero was riding a big Ducati bike!
What man? So, cool!
