My family had moved  from Bangkok to a village called Wang Nam Khiao, the Switzerland of Thailand few months ago. The air was fresh and rejuvenating  there.  I had come down from the capital for my vacation and to spend some quality time with my family of Por, Mae and little sister.  In two months' time, I was about to take my class Twelfth Examination.  I had taken Humanities as my major and was dreaming to enroll in Bachelor of Archaeology.   My father was a reputed archaeologist in my country.  My mother was a farmer who loved  growing crops as her living.  My sister and I were studying in Bangkok.

We were a happy family then and even now, except me.  My life has changed for better and worse.  I am twenty three now.  More matured than I was six years ago when I first had a glimpse of my wretched and yet innocent future.

I was just seventeen when I saw the villa opposite my own abode as I set foot in my house.  It was quite impressive for my teenager mind. The villa had an aura just like it's owner.  The villa was a series of square-shaped quarters constructed of wood and glasses.  It stood still and firm in the midst of beautiful lush green lawn.  There was a touch of old sentimentality of Thai architectural  style.  

Slowly, I settled in my new house and surroundings.  My house was a one-storeyed building being most compact and comfy for a family of four.  I had my room which faced the villa.  Everyday I use to sit on my window sill and stared at the villa, which stood in defiance against the society.  Nobody lived there, I presumed from the zero hustle and bustle of the people ever visited there.  

But slowly gossip mill started grinding the story of a man in love with a man and the end of the faggots' story.  The villa belonged to a man called Arthit Rojnapat and his 'beaten to death' partner Kongpob lived there thirty years ago.

So finally, let me introduce myself, since it is my story.  I am Kong, 23 years old doing Master in archaeology, Bangkok and my partner was ............
