CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE
WORACHET HAS always been a good person. He was an obedient son, a role model to his younger brother, a trustworthy friend, and a hardworking student. He was once called a perfect guy by his neighbors. But they never knew that there was inside him that seemed lacking.
Worachet was the caring type of person. He worries over someone else more than he does for himself. He was that kind of human being. But he never thought that a day would come when he wanted to be the one being cared for. The one who will be worried about. Unknowingly, he liked that feeling. He wanted that feeling. And finally, he felt it... with his professor, a guy, five years older than him.
There shouldn't be any judgments, and even if there's one, Worachet knew to himself that he wouldn't care about it because for the first time, he actually wanted something for himself, and that would be Anurak Saetang.
Sa ilang buwan din nilang nagd-date ay panatag na panatag ang loob niya sa lalake. He could be himself with him. He could be weak, he could be clingy, he could be shameless in front of him and that man would never judge him.
Naiintindihan din nito kapag busy siya sa academics at ito pa mismo ang nagpu-push sa kanyang pagbutihin ang pag-aaral niya. Worachet's motivations to be successful were his mother and brother, and now... another person was added to his motivations. Anurak became his inspiration and motivation. He wanted to make him proud of him as he was proud of the man.
Totoong masaya si Worachet sa piling ng guro niya. At kahit na medyo komplikado ang relasyong meron sila dahil sa status nila ay ayos lang ito kay Worachet, hangga't makakasama niya ang lalake, hangga't makikita niya ang mga ngiti't tawa nito ay ayos lang sa kanya ang lahat.
Laki nga ng naging pasasalamat ni Worachet nang makilala niya ang dalawa pang kaibigan ni Anurak, at buong loob silang tinanggap. Noong mga panahon na iyon ay masaya na si Worachet, na kahit hindi pa malaman ng lahat at may iilan pa lang nakakakita kung anong klaseng koneksyon ang meron sila ng lalake ay tanggap naman siya nito at nakakagaan iyon ng loob.
Hindi pa nila pinag-uusapan ni Anurak ang patungkol sa pagiging ganap na magkasintahan pero sa paraan ng pag-akto nila tuwing magkasama sila ay parang ganoon na rin naman ang klase ng relasyong namamagitan sa kanila.
At sa loob ng ilang buwan ay aminado na si Worachet na hindi lang simpleng pagkakagusto ang nararamdaman niya sa guro niya. It was something more. Something more powerful. And just when he finally realized that feeling, a sudden storm hit the both of them.
The letter that Anurak received, the one that made his partner cry a lot, brought him tons of worry as well. It brought him pain and fear. All his life, he cared about other people, he did almost everything for other people, for his family, and for his friends, but none of them was solemnly for him. And now this... just when he wanted Anurak for himself, someone just had to stop him.
"Hey, you've been spacing out." Star slightly shook his shoulder. "Were you listening to the professor? We'll be having a difficult project this month," his best friend continued.
Worachet blinked numerous times. "O-Oh? Is that so?"
Napailing na lang si Star habang nag-aalalang nakatingin sa kanya. "What's going on with you? Did something happen to Auntie? Or to your brother?"
"H-Huh?" Wor shook his head. "No, no. Not about that," he answered but seconds later, Wor spaced out again.
Napabuga na lamang ng hangin si Star saka muling napailing. "I think I know the solution here." Muli tuloy siyang inalog ng kaibigan. "Come to our house. Let's drink, okay?"
