“Boom, There’s a smilodon here”
Walk in a little deeper. They found models of various animals lined up.
Not just them, But there is also a group of students from the same school in the area.
There are many models of animals on display, Even skeletons and fossils of them. Including jars used to preserve various reptiles.
“That’s remind me of a herbal liquor”
“You had one?” Boom asked.
“Yeah, I tried it. That shit was nasty”
Because of the effect of it. Even Tar has to surrender. You need to try it yourself.
Suddenly, Boom saw a glimpse of something.
It’s not entirely a glimpse. Because Tar and Chompoo probably saw it too. But Lifa might not see it, too…No, She purposely did not look at it.
He continued observing for a while, just in case.
(Oh~)
Finally, Boom now knows what Lifa is afraid of.
However, doing so would result in him becoming a center of attention. But don’t worry, Boom has made up his mind. in exchange for the hilarity he’s about to see.
“Hey, I’Li”
“?”
Boom go and give Lifa a princess carry.
“Huh!? Hey, Boom!?”
Lifa, who is suddenly being carried, grumbled. Tar and Chompoo are also confused about what Boom will do.
‘The fuck are you doing, I’Boom?’ Tar asked. However, Boom didn’t answer, instead he smirked like a mischievous child before walking to the reptile area.
“Argh! B- Boom! No! Please don’t!”
Walking closer to the snake area, Lifa screamed in fear before burying her face in Boom’s chest.
“So you’re scared of snakes, huh?”
Kukuku, Boom laughed joyfully because he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Although it's just a model, If people are really scared of it, even a picture would be enough.
Both small and large snakes and anacondas. It’s a nightmare for someone with ophidiophobia. Luckily, this place doesn’t have the model of titanoboa. A gigantic snake from 60 million years ago, or else Lifa would be dead.
Boom continues to tease Lifa by bringing her close and then backing up.
He did it for almost a minute until…
“Get me out of here…”
Lifa said with a trembling voice and with tears in her eyes.
Shit…Boom realized that he’s being too harsh. He had zero idea that Lifa would be this scared.
He put Lifa down before comforting her as best he could.
“I’Li, I’m sorry…”
“Don’t talk to me again!”
But it didn’t work.
Lifa pouted angrily before walking out of the building.
The way she walked and the tone of her voice were different from when she’s pouting at an academic day. This time she seemed extremely furious.
“Oh shit, The love-birds are fighting,” Tar laughed.
“Go get her back, I’Boom”
“Right…” Boom agreed with Chompoo’s advice.
Passing through that zone, Boom met an exit door that would take him to another zone that he might love. The dinosaur zone.
It has the same vibe as the one in Nongnooch tropical garden on Mother’s day. This place just isn’t as spectacular.
But right now, It’s not the time to be impressed. Boom has to find Lifa and beg for her forgiveness.
He walked past several mannequins but still couldn’t find her.
Boom could just text or call her. But she might not answer his call, given the situation.
After searching for a while, He finally found Lifa. She is peacefully eating snacks on a bench in an area with no people.
“I’Li?”
“Hm?”
Her response was cold, as if she didn’t want to talk. With her poker face, she didn’t even turn to look at him.
“Uh…earlier…I’m sorry”
“.....”
Lifa didn’t answer. She just looked at him before turning back.
“I didn’t mean to do that. I just want to scare you. I’m sorry if I overdo it”
Boom utters every word in Thai language he knows in order to sincerely apologize to Lifa. He even bowed to her.
This whole situation is becoming more and more uncomfortable. It’s almost 4pm. now. And it’s almost time to go back to the bus.
“Hmmm…”
Lifa looked at him, bowing to her with guilt. Deep down, She knew that Boom was just teasing her and wanted to forgive him.
The reason why she didn’t respond was because she didn't know what to say.
“Ok”
“Huh?”
Sudden;y, Boom’s phone vibrated. When he picked it up, He found that Tar was the one who had called.
Boom answers the call and turns on the speaker.
“Hello? I’Boom, where are you?”
“I’m…with I’Li. Why?”
“Dumbass, You better get your ass over here. It’s almost time for a roll-call. And we’ll have to go to the Yaowarat*”
*The Chinatown in Bangkok
“Er…Ok. We’ll go back”
Boom, hang up the call.
In the meantime, Lifa got up.
“We better get going, or else we’ll miss the roll-call”
She said it, naturally as she walked up to Boom.
“Let’s exchange our information”
“What?”
“You now know what I’m afraid of. So tell me what you’re afraid of, to redeem yourself”
“Uh…I’m afraid of dogs”
“Hm…”
Lifa stares at Boom with her sparkling pink eyes to check if he’s lying or not. But from the looks of it, Boom is probably telling the truth.
What made her believe him, was that she rarely ever saw Boom near dogs, and there’s no one in the neighborhood who raised dogs. Plus, she already saw how Boom acted when he was around with dogs.
“Ok, then let’s go”
Lifa answered shortly before turning back. Boom, who is still stunned by the situation, hurriedly followed and hugged her from behind.
It scares the hell out of Lifa.
“B- Boom?”
“Did you really forgive me?”
A trembling voice combined with a rather tight hug. Lifa can be sure that Boom is really afraid of losing her.
“Y- Yeah, I forgive you”
“Really?”
“Yes, I’m not lying”
Upon hearing those words, Boom’s hug strength gradually decreased. Lifa then turned to look at him, who now had a relieved expression on his face.
“Are you really afraid of losing me?”
“Um…Yeah”
“I’m not that harsh. I’ll probably won’t talk to you for a while, At most”
“That’s what I’m afraid of”
“Why?”
“Because you’re the person I feel comfortable talking to. I can’t live without you anymore”121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNEwV6kVrh
Seeing that Lifa is the person who made Boom change for the better in many ways. She’s the person who gave Boom encouragement when he was in trouble, a friend for him when Tar and Chompoo are not available.
Upon hearing that, Lifa’s ear and face turn red. Before letting out a cute noise and buried her face in Boom’s chest.
“You…You praise me too much”
“Not too much. Because you’re the person I like the most”
*Fhum!* The critical hit words were so strong that Lifa’s head nearly exploded into steam. Her whole body trembled because of embarrassment.
Boom has to lift her up before pressing his forehead against her.
“Should we get going then?”
“Y-...Yeah”
After talking, Boom held one of her hands and walked back to the bus.

“So, How was it?”
In the bus of 4/7 class. Chompoo asks Boom, who is listening to his music, about what happened in the afternoon.
Right beside him, Is Lifa who is listening to her music.
“Good…I went too far. But she forgave me tho”
“Don’t do anything like that, next time. Or else you’d have to bring her back again”
Tar spoke in a teasing way. Boom replied ‘Yeah’ before going back to listen to the song.
However, That casual answer of Boom made some of his friends in the bus curious about something, but no one said anything.
After traveling for a while, They arrived at the Yaowarat. The students and teachers then dispersed to go where they wanted to go.
Boom then went with his group. Plus, Beam and Tid are also joining.
To be entirely honest, Yaowarat was never a part of this trip. But the teachers just want to come themself.
The food in this area is famous. Additionally, having the daughter of a rich man come along like this, Boom and the others are definitely must’ve go all out(But not too far because they were considerate of Lifa)
They came across the toasted bun shop. It looked really delicious, so Chompoo and Lifa volunteered to go buy it.
“I heard P’Li was mad at you?”
“Huh?”
Suddenly, Beam asked. When Tid heard that, his nosy…I mean curiosity twitched up.
“Where the hell did you hear that?”
“P’Tar told me”
“She’s the one who asks,” Tar responded.
“Whatever”
Since she’s already spoken it up. Boom then told everything that had happened.
“That's all your fault,” Beam joked.
“I know”
“C’mon, at least she forgave you, bro”
Tid spoke comfortingly.
“Btw, How did you know that I’Li is scared of snakes? Did she tell you or something?”
“No, I just saw her acting weird around the snake model. I knew it after observing for a moment”
“Man, you’re tough”
“You’ll make a good stalker, bro”
“Wanna fight? I’Tid you damn brat”
Before it escalates further than this. Lifa and Chompoo returned with a red box.
“2 piece of each person”
“Don’t eat it too much”
Inside, There’s a 12 pieces of toast. With a variety of filling, such as condensed milk, strawberry jam, foi thong**, Thai pandan custard and ham-cheese.
**A Thai dessert that is made from duck and chicken egg yolks and sugar, which are transformed into golden silky threads. The stirred yolks are strained and then placed in a funnel into a simmering sugar syrup.
For Boom, he probably doesn't hesitate about what to choose. He stretched out his hand to take his favorite toasted bun with condensed milk filling, But Lifa snatched a piece from him.
“Hey…I’Li”
“You’re a slowpoke”
Lifa makes fun of him by giving him a mini heart.
“Oh shit”
“Didn’t you two just reconcile?”
Tar and Chompoo said miserably before continuing to lead the way elsewhere. Beam and Tid then follow along.
“Damn it”
Boom, pick up the ham-cheese filling and eat it instead. Lifa, who is right next to him, sees the look on his face. So she shared the condensed milk filling she’s eating to make him feel better.
“Want one?”
“Yeah”
*Nom* Boom, bite the bun and smile happily. Even Lifa feels fond of his smile.
“?”
Boom noticed a stain of condensed milk on the left side of Lifa’s lip. So he gently wiped it away with his hand.
“Here, I’ll clean it for ya”
And lick the stain on his hand. But Lifa just blushing.
“What are you guys doing?”
Beam interrupted because she felt like Boom and Lifa kept too much distance from them. Boom replied ‘Nothing’ before catching up to them.
As for Lifa, who is following behind him, she secretly grabs the hem of his PE uniform so she won’t get lost and follows.
