Chapter 30 - 30: Brass Gear or White Gown

"What the heck are you wearing?" Fa hisses at Ezra, pointing his index at that Omega.

Ezra frowns, looking at himself from head to toe. The Beta stylist chose to dress him in wide-cut long jeans, a white and short t-shirt that hangs on his torso, and a red and white checkerboard shirt that ties around Ezra's waist. A pair of red thick-soled Converse Highs complements the overall look of that young Omega.

"Your Beta stylist recommended this to me. If you wanna lash out, go find her," says Ezra in a subtle way.

"I'm so gonna fire that bitch!" Fa drags Ezra's hand away from where he hid just now. Omega rolls up his eyes, so done with Fa's super protective side.

"Fa, what's wrong with me wearing something like this? I'm just following the latest trend!" Ezra sneers at Fa. They both stop in the middle of the crowd. Fa drags Ezra closer to him.

"I don't know if you're playing coy, or clueless that you haven't realized the change in the shape of your body. It's the reason for my insecurity now."

"Why though? You dress up handsomely like this, and I'm not complaining!"

"I dress up according to the college's dress code guideline. So, if I look handsome today, that's because I am happy to see my mate is coming to my college today."

Ezra scoffs, pushing Fa's shoulder softly. The Golden Alpha sneers as he still stares at Ezra with in furious.

"Don't ever wear this to college next time. Got it?"

Ezra sighs. He nods away, refusing to drag the matter on for long. Anyhow, neither of them is wrong! Ezra dresses up as he pleases and Fa is handsome because he was born like that.

Did you just admit that Fa is handsome, Ez?

Ezra smacks his lips tight and brushes that thought away.

"Come. Let's go and meet my friends—"

"Wait. I need to visit another booth..."

"I thought you wanna join my faculty?"

Ezra pauses for a while. "Says who?"

"I thought Cir already consulted this with you?" Fa grumbles. He swears to the deity, he will bury that sleezy Beta seven feet down into the ground if he doesn't do whatever Fa asks him to do.

"Oh. Yeah. He did. But I already made up my mind..."

"Then, why are you still looking around?"

"I have my own passion. I'm not really into your faculty," the answer feels like a thunder that thumps into Fa's ear.

"What's your choice then?" Fa anxiously asks. Feeling enough of push and pull conversation.

"Aeronautic Engineering."

Fa's jaw rolls down to the floor. He stutters then stutters a bit. "Eng...engineering?"

"Yeah. Actually, I want to join aviation, but becoming an aircraft engineer sounds even more fun and thrilling!"

"NO!"

The whole hall suddenly falls into silence. All eyes are on the shocking Golden Alpha who just learned that his cutie, obnoxious Omega wants to study in a faculty where the majority of its students are Alphas.

"Fa! Why are you yelling like that, you dumb!" Ezra apologizes to the crowd and drags Fa outside. He chose a secluded place so they could have a private talk.

"What is wrong with you?!"

"What is wrong with YOU? Why are you yelling at me? What did I do wrong?"

"You wanna be an engineer! That already sounds so wrong... oh lord..."

"Heh? What's wrong with it? Why can't I choose to do what I want to do?"

"Because the faculty is monopolized by the Alphas! Why are you; the Omega, wanting to join the wagon?"

Tsk, he becomes irrelevant again! Ezra murmurs silently.

"Look. You said, monopolize. Not exclusive. So, there must be a small number of Omegas in that faculty."

"I don't care about other Omegas except for my Omega! And the answer is no!" Fa snaps. He growls in anger, staring Ezra with his deep gaze.

"Excuse me, but this is my future. My life, my rules. I know what to do. If I join the aeronautic field, maybe I can be like Alpha Kawei or Cirrus! Or, more than that!"

Fa grabs Ezra's hand tightly. He looks deep into that Omega's eyes with a helpless look, almost in tears. "I know we are not officially mating yet, but please... I can't imagine my future Omega mingling freely around a huge crowd of Alphas!"

Here we go again! Ezra sighs.

"Fa, it's not like they can do anything to me. You already marked your territory on me," Ezra explains. "Besides, I can take care of myself. Don't you trust me?"

"I trust you but not them!"

Ezra feels tired already. "I don't want to argue about this anymore. I decide what I want."

Fa is about to smack Ezra on his lips with his lips when that Omega's phone buzzes inside his pocket. He fishes the phone and picks up the call.

"Hello? Oh, Alpha Kawei! Yes! I'll be right there!" Ezra exclaims in excitement. He cuts the call, brushing off Fa to clear the path for him to walk away. But, Fa is fast enough to grab Ezra, pulls him in with a deep, rough kiss, almost makes the poor male yelp in pain.

"Yarh! What are you doing?"

Fa ignores Ezra. Instead, he untangles the knot of the checker shirt that Ezra wears, takes it off his waist, and lays it on Ezra's shoulder, covering the top of that Omega's body. He then fixes three buttons from the bottom to cover Ezra's tempting waist from the public's sight.

Ezra can only gush in annoyance. He drops Fa's hands from him and walks away, leaving that crazy in love Golden Alpha, crying inside.

"Oh, here you are! Come here, Ez!"

The young Omega runs in light feet towards Kawei. There's another male next to him, smiling at Ezra.

"Ezra, meet Professor Wei Lang. He's my classmate, now one of the senior lecturers in TechNex."

Ezra bows a bit, before politely introducing himself. "Hello, I'm Ezra Sarin. It's an honor to meet you, sir!"

"The honor is mine. Kawei mentioned that you want to join our faculty, the Aeronautics. What a brave decision!"

Ezra grins widely. "Yeah. Alpha Kawei is my inspiration. So, hope you can show me the way!"

Wei Lang nods lightly as he pats Kawei's shoulder. "He is indeed a bright cub, Kawei!"

"Don't be fooled by that, Wei Lang! This cub is a strong-headed cub!"

"Strong-headed is a must in our faculty. We need to be resilient in this job field. The work itself is a tough one," Wei Lang replies.

Fa suddenly appears out of nowhere, panting a bit before he straightens up and joins the group.

"This is ThongFa, my nephew. He's in Dentistry..."

"Ah, I know him. A valedictorian candidate!" Wei Lang pulls out his hand for a handshake. Da politely accepts, but half-heartedly sincere.

"So, Ezra... if you're ready, please fill in the form—"

"We need more time to discuss this matter, if it's possible," Fa cuts the conversation at once. He glares at Ezra, who subtly tucks the hem of Fa's white shirt.

"But..."

"No but. We have to discuss this first, Ezra. You and me with no one else—"

"Fa... you're embarrassing me..." Ezra almost sings a tune of warning. But, Fa ignores him completely.

"Listen and obey me, Omega!"

The scene is getting tight. Kawei sighs as he drags himself, standing between Fa and Ezra. The young hot blooded Golden Alpha is daring enough to indict the anecdote of possession to his unofficial Omega.

Things might get worst if he doesn't stops them.

"Alpha, control yourself. My friend over here is asking your Omega to sign the visitation form," Kawei uses his corporate skill to slowy explain things to Fa. He dares not to wake up an angry Alpha; plus, this very Alpha is a special breed who is more powerful than him.

Ezra glares at Fa with a pair of red eyes. Obviously, he is mad at Fa for being ridiculous. A day that suppose to be a happy day turns ugly in the end. Ezra grabs his bag tight, politely bows to both Kawei and Wen Lang before he takes a leave with anger.

Fa bats his lashes in disbelief. A guilt sips in, and now he realizes that he might have a hard time after this.
