Runaway Rich Guys Love Endeavour - Chapter 17:What happened before
Five years ago,
when Ray had first come to the capital city in the country he didn’t know anyone nor did he have any place to stay.
Being a runaway sure had its own problems but he was happy to have his freedom. He just wanted to find ‘something’ but he didn’t know what that ‘something’ was.
With the little money remaining in his pockets he first entered a restaurant to fill his belly. He felt thankful towards his lucky stars because the language barrier in this new foreign country didn’t pose a big challenge to him.
It was because from a pretty young age he was trained in various foreign languages as a part of his grooming.
After ordering the food he was waiting in line when someone slammed into him. The momentum of the person made them both tumble down to the floor. Ray didn’t even get the time to steady himself, in no time he was greeted with the hard cold tile hitting his delicate nose.
He groaned in pain and tears almost spilt out from his eyes.
The person who had fallen above him finally got up and Ray rolled over holding his red nose.
??: (concerned) Are you hurt somewhere?
He saw that it was a guy who was similar in age i.e., nineteen. He was much thinner that him and was dressed in a simple red striped tee and black jeans. His hairs were spiked and looked pointy like a cactus.
Ray wished so much that he could beat up the guy for slamming into him so hard that he almost broke his nose but the pain didn’t allow him to even say anything much less do something.
The guy frowned when he didn’t get any reply and he quickly moved forward to help Ray to an empty seat in the restaurant.
After making sure that he was comfortably seated the guy went over to the counter to ask for an ice pack. After some hassle, he managed to get some crushed ice in some old piece of cloth and handed it over to our injured guy.
Ray wrinkled his brows seeing the washed down state of cloth and hesitantly put it on his nose where it was hurting.
?? : (bowing politely) I am sorry! I knocked into you carelessly.
Ray: (nodding) it’s alright. Luckily my nose isn’t that badly hurt.
He tried to smile but he flinched because his nose hurt. The cactus haired guy noticed his flinch and felt a little guilty for causing someone discomfort. To smooth things over he decided to offer to take him to the nearest hospital.
?? : (embarrassed) I am really sorry that you got hurt because of my carelessness. My name is Kim Kai, let me please escort you to the nearest doctor. It’ll make me feel less guilty!
Ray: (shaking his head) no need, no need. I am fine. You don’t have to worry much about this little thing.
