Back Story: Two

“SO, what can you say about Thailand?” Angelo asked Charles who was currently busy eating Satay for the first time. 

“Hmm… Not bad.” 

Angelo laughed. “Not bad but you already ate six sticks of Satay.” Angelo laughed even harder.

Charles immediately glared at the man, which immediately stopped laughing. “Anyways, where are we going next?” Finally, Charles was able to finish his last Satay stick and noticed Angelo staring at him. “What?”

Angelo's hand reached for Charles' chin and wiped something off. “You’re a messy eater. Lindo.”

Charles knew what that word means, because of his best friend but he didn't bother giving a deeper meaning to it. 

When Angelo was done wiping the sauce off, he finally answered Charles. “We can wander here until nightfall. Thailand's Night Market is one of the best.”

Charles nodded. “You look like you've been here for a long time.”

“Nah. I just love traveling and reading articles and magazines about different places. Es divertido—I mean it's fun. Sorry for the sudden Spanish expressions.” Angelo laughed.

“It’s fine. I know some of the languages.” Thanks to Wynter.

“Really?” Angelo was half-happy and half-surprised because of it. I should be careful with my words from now on.

Charles nodded. “So, where to now?”

Angelo thought about it. This actually looks like a date, I have to impress this guy. “How about a massage parlor?”

“We’ll have a massage?”

“No, we'll eat ice cream at the massage parlor,” Angelo sarcastically said.

Charles rolled his eyes. “Whatever.” Charles suddenly walked without direction.

Angelo quickly caught up with him. “I was just kidding. But yeah, let's have a massage before we enter the warzone tomorrow.”

Charles couldn't help but chuckle. “Okay, let's do that, Gab.”

Angelo suddenly stopped walking. What did he just call me?

Charles noticed that he was no longer walking with him so he looked behind him and saw that Angelo looked shocked. Charles walked back to check on his companion. “Are you okay?”

Angelo stared at Charles before slowly nodding his head. “Y-Yeah. I… I just… Nevermind.” He managed to put a smile on his lips. “Let’s go?”

Charles thought that Angelo’s smiles were contagious as he found himself smiling for no accurate reason. “Lead the way, then.”

Both of them had fun that day, but little did they know that their friendship was about to be ruined by what happened next.
