MOANS BEHIND THE EASEL (Completed)

Chapter 29

Gulf looked at Mew, "Let's talk on the small hut under that mango tree."

They get inside the hut, Gulf seated on the single bench. But Mew remain standing.

The sun is slowly setting, and hiding behind the mountains.

"Start talking and explain yourself. Where are you these days? Are you aware on what happened to me?"

Mew gulped and gave him a paper.
"It's a result of the medical tests conducted by Grace. I was drugged after my mother asked me to fetch Ji Eun in the airport."

Gulf's mouth open agape. "What?"

"That time My mom's crimes are slowly exposed, she's afraid that I might say anything against her. She's the brain of everything Gulf. From the start she's the main culprit, I'm so sorry..." Mew kneeled in Gulf's feet.

"I know. She's behind it, Frank did it because she said so... Tharn told me everything." Gulf sighs. He already accepted it. "No matter what I will do, the past is already done. We can't do anything about it. There's no time machine to correct the past." He looked outside.

"will you forgive me?" Mew hold his knees.

"Did you do anything wrong? Why are you asking for forgiveness? We are both a victim of these circumstances."

"I'm sorry because I am an imbecile. I didn't do anything. I should've been with you. You're life was in danger yet I wasn't there.. I felt so useless..."

"You didn't mean to do it..." Gulf look at the papers. "You were drug right? What happened after that?"

Mew look down. "I woke up after sleeping for 24hours. Then Type and Grace came... They told me about what happened to you after Grace beat my mom, I have no idea about what happened because the last time I remember was I was on the car with Ji Eun and we are in the Star Bucks drive thru. Then I passed out. I confronted her. We have a heated discussion. Then I was imprisoned again to the same room I was regularly imprisoned back when I was young. Gladly Rain broke in, he took me to KTA, then Type and Auntie Viqtoria came. And the rest is history."

Mew sniffs, still he felt useless.

"Are you tired? You look like shit babe... Have you eating this past few days?"
Gulf ask making Mew surprise and shock because there wasn't any anger and madness in Gulf's voice. All was filled with worries and love.

How does life became so cruel with this pure hearted person? He hugged Gulf tight.
"I'm sorry babe, I'm so sorry."

"Stop apologizing, silly.. I'm okay.." Gulf rubbed his back.

"Let me see your neck?" Mew gently touch his neck.

Gulf lifted his head, Mew clearly saw the remnants of the rope. It was black and still swollen.

He cried again.

Gulf chuckled at him. "What a cry baby.."

Mew wipe his tears.
"Why are you like this? You should be mad at me but here you are acting like nothing happened."

Gulf cupped Mew's face.
"I just learned to accept everythin so I will be able to move on. Life is cruel Mew yes, I know that. I've been there. This..." Gulf pointed his neck.
"Serves as a wake up call to me. Lots of people out there who suffered more than my sufferings yet they are still able to stay alive... I am not the only one suffers in this cruel world and I have reasons now to stay well and alive.. You, my sun.. You are my light.. Of course my family. And our babies." Gulf hold Mew's hand and bring them to his belly.

Mew felt his baby bump.
His heart clenches in the mix emotions.

"We will start again, this time I will be strong.. I won't give up.. I know my nightmares will go away soonest.. Let's replace those bad memories with good ones." Gulf pulled Mew for a hug.
"Remember how much you changed me. How you manage to enter my life, how you made me happy and alive again."

Mew nodded, he recorded Gulf's words in his mind.
"I love you babe."

"I love you too babe." Gulf rubbed their noses.

"How's our babies?". Mew touched his belly carefully. He pulled Gulf up and he sit down on the bench, then he let Gulf to sit on his lap.

"They are doing well.. I hope they will grow as brilliant as you.." Gulf lean on Mew's chest. His face buried in Mew's neck.
"I miss you."

Mew smiled a bit.
"Not as much as I miss you though, I want them to grow as brave as you. You're so brave... I can see it now on how you manage to accept everything that happens and your enthusiasm on forgetting and leaving what happened back in the past."

"I have to babe, I am not living only for myself.. I am now living for all of you who Loves me." Gulf planted little kisses on Mew's neck. "I really really miss you..."

"Same here babe but I don't think if we can. I don't want to strain your neck... You're still healing, Next time okay? I will make it up to you." Mew hugged his slim waist, while his other hand rubbed Gulf's bump.

"I'm hungry.. I got addicted on Marites' cooking.. Let's go back?" Gulf wiggled to got up.

"Kiss me first." Mew said and he puckered his lips.

Gulf smiled at him and he oblige. He lean closer to Mew and claim his lips.
They share a feather light like kiss, soft, smooth.

Gulf broke away first. His stomach is rumbling. He is really hungry. He's eating a lot. Maybe because he is carrying twins.
"Let's go... I'm really hungry. Sorry babe."

Mew chuckled and he carry Gulf bridal style. "I'll carry you back to the house."

They are laughing loudly when Type saw them.

He raise his brow.
"What did I told you? Dont be a softie!"

Mew put him down and Gulf immediately hugged Type.
"Sorry... He explained everything and I'm okay with it. Besides, we are brothers... We are both softie.. I am hungry Type.. Feed me! Feed me!" Gulf cutely pouted in his younger brother.

Type saw Mew smiled, He pointed him.
"Don't laugh! I will let this pass because he is pregnant. But I still don't trust you yet!" he then pulled Gulf to the kitchen.

Gulf was smiling from ear to ear but he cried when he saw his mother, father and Grace with Jom in the dining room.

"Mom." he sobbed.

"My son."

They hugged.

Thiwat and Grace approched them.
He pulled Type along and they group hug.

They are now happy and complete.
