[77. Can I go back to six ?]
Phet was standing in his dorm balcony thinking about Dae. He can't understand why his best friend had to suffer this much in his life. Dae went through a lot. Problems are coming one after another like hail stones to attack him. He don't get a little peace or happiness. Dae don't deserve all this.
Phet was feeling so angry and frustrated. It was then he saw Oak walking out of his room to the balcony, speaking to someone on phone. Unlike always, Phet didn't try to hide or go back inside his room. He just stood there and watched the older. Surprisingly Oak also looked frustrated. He was sighing and shaking his head, listening to the person on phone.Oak then sat down on the sleek bench near the railing and only then he saw someone standing in the opposite balcony, staring at him. His eyes locked with the other person's and his mouth hung open in surprise. But he quickly looked away and concentrated[78. Baby Tiger]It's a surprise to Dae when he wakes up at 7:30 Am to find heavy legs and arms curling around his body, completely locking him against Aroon's front. He tilts his head a little and looks around with his bleary eyes to realize he is in the older's room, lying in the older's bed being wrapped between very heavy yet hella nice arms and being pressed up against the older's chest in a sort of comforting position with his face snuggling against the older's neck. But Dae don't remember falling asleep in the older's room. He remember sitting in the balcony after dinner, leaning against one of those round pillers, looking up at the stars, regretting his decision about not smiling when the older asked him to. Maybe the older just wanted him to smile and he was not intending to kiss him. Or maybe he was actually going to kiss his cheeks. But It might not have turned weird like he thought earlier. They have kissed each other's cheeks as kids. What difference d
[79. Leave the team.]Aroon and Dae reached the canteen to find Oak and Phet sitting and having their breakfast on two different tables. Oak was near a big round table on the corner while Phet was at a rectangular table at the center. On seeing the duo, Phet immediately waved his hands, smiling. Oak, even though he found Aroon and Dae, just kept on sipping on his cup of coffee."Okay..you go to your friend. I will sit with Phet.", Dae said." Ahmm...let's all sit together.", Aroon said. He then looked over at Oak and motioned him to move to Phet's table. Oak placed his Coffee cup down and shook his head. He then motioned with his chin at Phet's direction, indicating that ' You guys can sit with him. I am okay.'" Ahh..this Oak." Aroon groaned and then looked at Phet, motioning towards Oak's table asking Phet to move to that table. Phet was already watching everything. He bit his bottom lip and looked at Oak to
[80. Why you like her ?]" Hey Phet..", Phet who was simply standing in the corridor in front of his classroom after lunch, turned to see Hansa, the assistant prefect of their class standing in front of him." Phet..you should collect the scholarship forms of boys, okay ? I will see the girls.", Hansa said." What scholarship forms ? Did any professor ask us to do that ?", Phet asked confused. He honestly didn't hear about any scholarships. Maybe he took a nap during some class and missed to hear it." Professors didn't say it. But just now P'Oak told me. Everyone can apply. I just collected the forms from the office and distributed among our students. Now we should collect it after students fill it and give it back at the office tomorrow. You should check everyone has attached their high school mark lists, identity card copy and photograph with the forms. And your own form is on your desk."" Wait..you
[81. You belong to our family.]After having a quite early dinner from the luxurious restaurant where Aroon stopped his car, Dae was standing near the entrance waiting for the older to come out of the washroom. He was amusedly watching an young couple and a small kid along with them, currently sitting at a table and having tea and snacks." Hey ! ",someone yelped loudly. It was an elderly voice. Dae turned to see Aroon's uncle, Narong walking to him after parking his car across the road. Suddenly he felt nervous but he could only step out of the shop and wait there for the older man, out of courtesy." Sawasdee Krab Loong Narong.", Dae responded as the older man reached him.Narong huffed a breath in dismay and asked in a menace tone. " Why are you here ?"" uh- uhm..I came to have something with.."Dae was cut in between by Narong. " I see.
[82. Shadows and Angel]" Yeah..I also don't see you as my uncle anymore. I lost all the respect I had for you. Don't call me again.", Aroon sneered into the phone and harshly tapped on the decline button before throwing the phone to his bed in anger.He then paced back and forth in his room in anger. He knew clearly that, with this he ended the relationship he had with his uncle. His two uncles from his Mother's family were his only relatives. Now he almost ended the relationship with Loong Narong and therefore probably with his cousins too. But he has one more uncle, Loong Nir
[83. Break up]"Dae...wake up.....wake up...Come on wakie Bun..", Aroon said shaking Dae but the younger yanked away his hands and turned to the other side hugging a pillow. The older dragged the pillow away and Dae whined opening his eyes."What do you want, Aru ?""Get up.""Why...?","Go and brush your teeth.""Aru....Why this early? It's only 6:30.", Dae said looking at the clock."We are going to work out.""What !?""We...are...going...to..work...out""Seriously..? But why? I am not fat.""Of course..You are not fat but you are weak.""I am not weak. I am enough strong.", Dae said falling back to the bed and covering himself with the blanket. The older dragged off the sheets and grabbed Dae's hands before pulling him up to make him sit up."Oh You are too strong. See..how easly I made you sit up."" Fine..I agree, I maybe weak. But I wanna s
[84. Sunset]Aroon grins after an excited Dae who races ahead, his uniform shirt flapping in the wind behind him." Aru...it's so beautiful.", the younger squeals looking at the vast sea in front of him. He doesn’t wait for Aroon as he dashes towards the blue sea that sparkles under the sun's weakening rays, enjoining the way the grains of soft sand slip past his toes. Having been only once before in his life to the beach in his almost 18 years of life, Dae revels in the view that surrounds him. The last time and the one and only time he has been to beach was on a 5th grade school tour and that was to Hua hin beach. And now he squeals and jumps in excitement as the endless amount of saltwater meet his widened brown eyes.He intakes the scenery into his memory, holding his breathe. His feet comes to a stop as wet sand touches his feet, where perhaps a comparatively bigger wave tickles the sand. He is afraid to go further ahead. He turns and looks to see
[85. Colourful Champagnes]The sounds of music becomes louder as they nears the spot. It was somewhat like a sundown party like Aroon's guess. But there were not much people. Everyone has already gone to the infinite number of clubs and bars surrounding the city to enjoy partying and night life.Here on a raised platform, someone was standing, rapping along with the heavy music flowing out from somewhere. Probably the speakers and other settings are under the raised platform. A few people were around him clapping and whistling, few barely dressed women moving their hips along with the beat, calling out to people walking around. Drinks were being sold on the sides.The boys stood listening to the rap for a while and soon they started feeling bored. And then the younger was feeling thirsty and he wanted to drink the colourful drinks being sold. He tugged on the older's shirt and pointed at the drinks.
