Soon in the whole university it was announced...that the renowned "ARTHIT ROJNAPAT is now unable to walk...so the basket ball team members to be selected again".

Truth... The day he sat on wheelchair the eyes which used to look down and hail on his feet now looked straight into his eyes making fun of him..

That's what others say "stand on you're own foot" neither he had friends nor family to bring back his lost identity. He himself was lost in the dark side which never existed when he had his legs.

He never ragged anyone much but now he felt insulted by the shames of his juniors and his classmates. Teacher were still the same but started to be partial for the fact that maybe in the race of education to a legless human can't run.

He started to lack to opportunity to even speak...learn or to be respected the same way his freshman juniors did. The tag of hazers were lend to someone else who was less capable than him which ended in the freshmans getting drunk and lost in lust and love with no punctuality and reliability.

No burden no tension was a new rule to them.

Arthit knew his university more than his own seniors more than the memories of drinking and smoking he had memories of laughing and smiling with his ex best friends and other mates.

He truthfully was born single he had never dated anyone or its more like he dated but himself dumped them not because of their flaws or he was a player but the ones who came to him saying they loved him only showed the side which was covered in a protective mask and didn't showed their actual self.

He felt as if interacting with a fake human.on the date of now he was sitting in the basketball court not on the place where the players sits but where the audience sit...in the emptiness and silence he looked at the hoop net which hung low as if making fun of him to be exactly like it full of open holes.

A tear escaped his right eye ....weirdly everyone says when the tear first comes from left it is sadness and right is happiness...so was Arthur happy ...he was but for a strange thing... A very strange and weird thing

He said to himself "yeah man you worked hard now close you're eyes and take a sleep...take rest....don't run just look at the race... Try being the self you left years ago on the land no one now fights...the childhood in which you planted dreams".

.....
Flashback

He was sitting on a stadium where teenagers are going to play basket ball he looked at his father mesmerized by the fact that his uncles son is soon going to play in the team he didn't knew exist.

He looked at the man who blew the game to the start and all the cool balls dribbling techniques made him enthusiastic.... He was finding his own sunrise in the evening where the sun sets.

He looked at his father who was jealous of his cousin brother's son being so good at it... He felt weird that his own son was accordingly useless.

He took a quick snap at the Scores and arthit found his cousin winning he cheated as a innocent boy who was unknown to the competition between the two families.

As they won his own father took him home and beat the shit out of just a 1st grader who just now was living in the world of not dreams and stories that anyone told.

His bruises were open until it made infection on them but it didn't stop his father poured alcohol on them ruthlessly calling him degrading names which he didn't knew was degrading because of his innocence .

Saying he is useless his bruises burnt to hell. But to show the world that their family lived like kings his parents gave him meds so that it can heal fast and new ones can be made..he was always under turtle necks and high sleeves.

After one or two months when their parents met each other for establishing the ownership of the land that their father i.e. Arthit's grandpa left as he died. He and his cousin brother who won basketball met down on an open basketball court.

His brother taught him to dribble and put the ball in the hoop..and that was maybe his brother's innocence like his that he taught him that while they both were not bothered and we're unknown with the fight going on in the office .

That day he saw his stars and sun and ran behind it....

End

But now what else than rest. He felt a hand on his shoulders he looked back to see his same brother who was now working in a renowned fashion industry.

Even though the family had problems them both lived the best for each other... They lived basically for each other.

One was heart and other was heartbeat he hugged his younger brother sitting with tears and sighs.and said "let's go to my home " he lived alone as an older and adult.

And arthit called "p'tay w..won't you leave me too??" With fear in his words but his said brother Tay looked at him and kissed his forehead and said "why would I? when I can't live without you"... They were brothers and they loved each other more than anyone else can.
