Until Our Hearts Meet Again

Epilogue (Celebration for the 10k reads)

2 years later after Suppapong's full recovery

It was late of that night when he woke up for his "quick" nap that took him hours and found out that he's brothers are nowhere to be found. He sat there confused and worried but as he turn to his right where his little table was placed, there was a letter from his very own older brother.

He smile as he read it and later decided for a late night walk. He took his winter jacket and calmly exited the house.

"This is so new to me... I've been homeschooled for the past years and haven't meet anyone except to my brothers and Gulf's husband-to-be Suppasit" he looked around amazed like a foreigner. Later then, without knowing that he arrived on that familiar street and not that far ahead, he could see that familiar dark bridge with no light that linger around... He stood there, just where he found himself...

"It's still here" He sigh "I was called Saint when my name's Suppapong. It feels so real when infact I'm in comatose. I jumped over a damn bridge because of a little reason but in a different time and space, I was being held by someone who looked so real as much how Zeepruk looked. I---" his thoughts was stopped as he was that there's a figure trying to climb on that said bridge.

That bridge where there are lot of people killed themselves. That bridge which under it are sharp and giant rocks with its ranging river current. That scary current below that old and dying bridge where no vehicle tried to cross at all.

Suppapong took the initiative to run towards that dark bridge. He knew from the time he saw that figure, he was a highschool student, a boy... At a distance, he heard the boy crying his heart out and was saying he need to end his life there without noticing Suppapong was there.... Running towards him.

Suppapong reached out to the boy as he was almost letting his self off of the bridge, he was closing his eyes and was holding his breath by the thought that it was his last day, last night to be alive.

But!

Suppapong caught him on time!

The boy felt his warm hand holding his hand tightly and firmly, he opened his eyes and saw Suppapong struggled in holding him up, exerting his strength just to pull the poor troubled boy up and into the safe ground. Tears escaping the boy's eyes as he saw that there's someone who wanted him to be alive.

"If you want to die so badly! Just let me kill you instead little boy!" Suppapong shouted as he pull him to the safe ground successfully. Suppapong took no seconds away, he put his attention on that boy "You okay?" He move closer to him and try to check him if he's hurt or wounded like an older brother of his, just like how Gulf worried about him, just like how a brother should worry about his younger siblings.

He saw the kid was crying and was totally devastated, he again reached out to the kid and wipe his tears away "I don't know what you've been through but I'm here, you can vent anything to me. I'm all ears you see" the kid look back to Suppapong and saw how heartwarming he is. But before the kid can talk to Suppapong, he stood up and lend him his hand "let's go somewhere bright" he smile at the kid and gently held the boy's hand... He later put his arm around the kid's shoulder "No matter how tough life was, don't take it away kiddo... You don't know that there are lot of people who love you in the least you don't know" he look at the kid and smile "I've been there and it's not quite too pleasing", a little while they arrived at the 24/7 convenient store, he placed the kid on a vacant table just across that scary looking big guys as he went inside the store order something warm to eat, but even so... Suppapong never took his whole attention away from the kid outside, he's in full cautious not for himself but for the kid's safety. 

Just at that very moment,
Just at the moment he went outside while carrying a warm food in tray, and he's never been wrong! The guys who's taking a table across the kid was starting to pick on him. Suppapong cleared his throat as he put the tray gently on the table and later aggressively glared at them

"What's the matter? Why picking on my little brother?" He shot them his deadly glare "Why don't you pick someone who's on your own size?" He was mad and you can see they we're startled and scared by Suppapong's glares and later decided to walk away.

"Here, eat some... You need to gain strength from all your crying earlier" he gave him foods, putting smile on his face as sat infront of him,

All of a sudden,

"Why did you help me?" The kid asked him as he look back at him with a caring eyes "What's your name?" Suppapong asked him back, the kid look down and utter his name,

"Armin ... Armin Arlert" enough for Suppapong to hear,

He smile at Armin, "alright Armin, I'm  Suppapong" the kid didn't look up at him but he nodded "Armin, please look at me" he asked him and the kid just did as what asked "You see why I helped you? Not just because I don't want to see someone killed themselves infront of me but because it's not the very last option life can give you." He paused as he wipe Armin's tears away "Life was tough but so are you" he smile at him "You can be whatever you wanted to be Armin. You're a warrior with a sword. That sword was your dream and that dream? Can take you places from now and towards the future" he pinch Armin's cheeks gently "Not everyone can talk about their worries to someone they knew but... They can tell it to someone who can understand of how you are feeling either it's your friends or just a random stranger" Armin nodded at Suppapong "Can you be here for me if I needed someone to talk to?" The older smile back at him

"Either if you need me or not, If you're on your up or down, just call me... I'll be right here standing next to you" he later stood up and approach Armin,

He opened his arms widely "Come I'll give you a hug" to which Armin happily take it and to which Suppapong felt so very happy "You did well... You're strong and the braviest" he caress the back of Armin's head "I'll be here for you from this day on until you feel a lot more better"

— in remembrance of Suppapong's past life as Saint who met the one who saved his life before, that "dream on his coma" as what Suppapong qouted was an actual happening 100 years ago with his whole life. And that man he love, Zee... Zeepruk Panich.

"It's not the troubled people's fault why they feel like giving up, it was the society itself. You can't help anyone with just by telling them that we've been through the same cause in reality, it wasn't... And it won't. Just be there and give them your ears to listen to and your warmth for them to feel that they're not alone. Words aren't everything but action and sincerity"

Have a great day! ❤️ Love you all! No matter what color you are, what gender orientation you may be, what religion and ethnicity, I love you and always stay safe ❤️
