Adorably Silly (ENDED)

I'm very proud of you

Can's POV

I woke up and had a message from him.

From Tin:

Jerk ... Are you copying me? Everything looks good on him ... Do you want to tell me something?

For Tin:
What does that gesture mean?

I waited but got no response so is he busy or sleeping.

Tin's POV

We got to the restaurant and sat down. There were mostly couples or business meeting; no family.

— When we return to Thailand, everything must remain the same. —Tul explained to me—. I will no longer bother you when we are alone and I will leave my brother-in-law alone.

If this is true, it will give me great mental peace.

— I know it will be difficult for you to believe and trust me, but little by little we will start. —He said seriously.

— When we return, should I go back to the apartment you gave me?

— If you want it, I'll rent it again or I'll buy it from you.

— No. I'd like to live in Pete's building.

— Great. You want that one? —He took out his cell phone and I stopped him.

— Yes, but I don't know if I want you to buy it for me. I don't know if I'm prepared to owe you something. —I recognized.

- You owe me nothing! It will be in your name and I will pay for it, okay?

It was too good to be true ...

— Take it as a gift for what an idiot I have been in recent years.

Well, the idiot d thing, it seems it's hereditary ... He took out his cell phone and sent some messages. I checked mine.

From Can2:
What does that gesture mean?

I smiled. If I move into Pete's building, it'll be nice to have him as a neighbor but ... Will we have to be quiet? If I intend to stay, of course I am, I cannot come and give them concerts with Can ...

— What were we up to? —It was Tul—. Oh yeah, how did you meet your boyfriend?

It took me completely by surprise.

— He's not my boyfriend. —I clarified.

—Tin, please! I understand that you don't trust me, but are you going to keep lying to me? —He was ... hurt?

— No, is not that! It's that he rejected me.

— What? —He was scandalized.

I told him the whole story, of how he rejected me and then we were without seeing each other and now we "come back" but we are not formally dating.

—I knew your boy doesn't have many lights. —That offended me—. But apparently you don't either, how can it be that you love each other and that you are not boyfriends? Well ... you are made for each other —he said at the end.

— And you with Hin? —I ventured to ask.

At first he was surprised but then he smiled.

— He was my classmate, as you know.

I still can't believe how his attitude and expressions change when talking about Rock.

— Then we became friends, then best friends ... —I think he's starting to blush, is that possible? —I knew I loved being with him and that I loved him very much, but I knew I couldn't like boys, because dad would condemn me. —Now he was serious again.

He looked at me and was silent for a few seconds.

—When I kissed Rock for the first time, I felt that the whole world moved —he explained unceremoniously and with a small smile— But if I liked boys, dad could never find out.

— I never thought about what he would think. —I admitted— I think deep down, I don't care what he thinks, because he never cares about me. —I looked at him seriously and bowed his head guiltily.

— I saved you from going through that bad drink, Tin. —He clarified for me—. When dad discovered me with Rock... —He shook his head, took a deep breath, and wailed.

"We were kissing passionately; we were dressed, in my room. Dad came in and grabbed me by the arm; he dragged me out of the room. One of the bodyguards came and took Rock ... we were fifteen ... "

I can tell that it was an event that really traumatized him. I never thought I could see a vulnerable part of him, but that's the way it is.

— Dad hit me several times in the face, then he took out his belt and hit me until ... your mother came.—He looked me in the eyes.

I was in shock, I couldn't believe my father was this violent. Verbal violence yes, but I didn't think he could be physically violent. Much less can I believe that my mother "saved" him. At first, she did not want Tul because he would compete with me to be the heir.

— Do you remember that once I was hospitalized and they told you it was because I had a car  accident?

I kept thinking ... that was before going to boarding school! I couldn't believe it. I remember watching television but nothing had happened from any accidents.

— I see you remember. Now you know the truth. —He said after a big sigh— Rock ended up hospitalized with broken ribs and a leg split in three ...

— And despite all that ... Did he come back?

"At first I was very worried about Hin. Then dad wanted to make me see that it was all Rock's fault and that if it hadn't been for him, nothing would have happened ... Then ... I just didn't care. I wanted to know how he was doing. and I missed him madly ... "

— So ... why didn't you choose him??

— I made a mistake and got Wadee pregnant —I can hear the pain in my voice— I didn't want to be with her but Rock convinced me that, my son would need a father and I should be a wonderful father. —His words sound weak— Hin made me promised him, that I would put all my love for him in my son, and I did, that's why I love Phu Pha so much and I'm such a good father to him.

It was a lot of information put together. I really didn't know all of this.

— Rock studied with me because he had a scholarship, his family is middle class. —He sighed—. He didn't want me to live like him, he thought that the best thing for me would be to continue with the family tradition, pursue the career that dad wanted, be the heir to the family ... all that. —HJe sight—. And married Wadee who has a blue blood would be perfect for my goals.

I don't make sense of it, it seems very stupid to think like that.

— That's why I envy you. —He said suddenly. You and Can. You don't mind having a no-frills life as long as you have each other.

I was embarrassed by that comment.

— I was an asshole. —Tul acknowledged— I was never there to take care of my little brother, but it turns out that without my presence, he grew up better than I could have dreamed of. —He smiled—. I'm very proud of you.
