Before Dawn

Chapter 23

Tutor opens his eyes but whatever he sees is blurry. He closes and opens his eyes trying to get his vision a bit clearer so he can see his surrounding. He sees two figures hugging each other. He moves his head to his sides trying to shake up his memory, trying to remember how he got here but nothing. His vision clears well enough to see Tharn and Fighter's ex kissing each other.
"Tharn.." he tries to call out but his voice is too hoarse. He is about to clear his voice when he hears the door open. He turns and sees Fighter come in looking at him in shock. He smiles happy to see him.
"Tutor, you're awake." Fighter rushes to his lover's side and holds his right hand, pecking it numerous times.
Tharn and Type separate from each other shocked to see Tutor awake. Tutor whispers for need of water. Fighter takes a cup of water on the small tabel beside the bed. Tutor sips the water through the straw placed in the cup.
"I'm so glad you're alive." Fighter smiles as he rubs Tutor's hair.
Tutor finally quenches his thirst and breathes out in relief.
"What happened?" Tutor asks.
Fighter looks at Tharn who seems eager to hear what Tutor has to say.
"Don't you remember what happened?" Fighter asks looking back at Tutor.
Tutor closes his eyes trying to remember how and why he is in the hospital but it is just blank. His memory I'd just foggy.
"I can't remember anything." Tutor opens his eyes looking at everyone in the room. "Tell me what happened."
"We don't know Tutor. We were hoping you would tell us when you wake up." Fighter says.
"But all we know is that you fell from the balcony at our house." Tharn continues.
"I fell? How?"
"We don't know that."
Tutor begins feeling dizzy again then Tharn rushes out of the room to call the doctor.
"Tutor stay with me." Fighter says scared of losing Tutor.
"I just want to sleep. I'm really exhausted." Tutor closes his eyes so he can sleep.
  Tharn and the doctor come into the room.
"What happened?" The doctor asks.
"He said he wants to sleep." Fighter replies.
The doctor checks Tutor's vital making sure not to miss anything.
"He's alright. He is asleep. It happens. Just let him have his rest. You can bring foods for him, he will be hungry when he wakes up."
"He doesn't seem to remember what happened to him."
"That's completely normal. His body must have been in shock when it happened. His brain made that memory foggy to protect him from shock. Just give him sometime. I will be leaving. Thank you." The doctor says before leaving.
"Thank you doctor." The three young men says correspondingly.
"I'm glad he's alright." Type says. "Let me make a call, I will be right back." Type leaves the room bringing out his mobile phone from his pocket. He calls his mother and it is quickly picked up.
"Hello Type, where are you? You left so quickly." Mai asks. Type could feel the worry in his mom's voice.
"I'm at the hospital. Tutor woke up." "Oh my God, are you serious? How is he?"
"He's alright but he is asleep. The doctor said we should bring some foods for him."
"That is no problem. I will be there maybe in the next two hours." Mai says.
"Alright see you later." Type is about to cut the call but his mother calls him. "Yes mom"
"Thank you Type. Thank you for caring about Tutor. I know it isn't easy seeing Tutor live the life you wanted. But thank you for understanding and caring about him. I love you so much."
Type wipes the tears falling from his cheeks. He didn't expect any tears. "Thank you mom. I love you too." Type cuts the call and goes back to the room.
     Madam Ahn is in the sitting room having a cup of tea watching a fashion show. Her phone rings, not bothering to look at the caller screen she picks up the phone.
"Hello.' She answers the call.
"What?!" Her voice increases. "How is that possible?"
"Tutor signed it over to Mr. Thananan? Impossible." Madam Ahn cuts the call throwing the phone by her side. She stands up walking quickly to the kitchen to see her daughter.
"Mai, Mai." Madam Ahn calls out as she approaches the kitchen.
"Yes mother." Mai closes the pot of fried rice cooking and leaves the kitchen to see her mom. "What's wrong?"
"It's our company. Mr. Thananan has total control over our company. He has 70% percent of the shares saying Tutor signed it over to him."

    Mr. Thananan's secretary walks into an office. Mr. Thananan is seated in one of the sofas having a cup of coffee. On the table in his front is a glass table with two pots of flowers on it. At the wall is a flat screen television showing a news broadcast. The secretary first puts some books she was ordered to buy by Mr. Thananan in the shelf consisting of various books.
"How did it go?" Mr. Thananan asks.
"She believed it." The secretary smirks.
"Don't hesitate to let her in the moment she comes to see me." Mr. Thananan orders.
The secretary bows before leaving the office. Mr Thananan sips from his cup of coffee before smirking
