Randomly Me

Wang and Inthawut

From the series, 180-Degree Longitude Passes through Us

Wang POV

Today is my graduation day, It's been 4 years since that day. As promised my mom lets me take philosophy as my major, and as I promised her, I stayed with her. I dedicate myself to studying and only attend events related to my study. After that day, we became closer and rebuilt our mutual understanding, She gave me freedom and less controlling my life, She also stops seeing all her younger lovers and one-night stand, and focus on her work and me. 

As for me, as odd as it sounds, I'm still in love with him. I know my love for him is impossible, but every word that he said, every touch that we shared, and every moment and memory from that short time remain alive, vividly in my mind and my heart. 

"A' In, today is my graduation day, even if you are not with me today, you should know that, for all this time, I never forget about you, you told me to be brave and true to myself, to follow my instinct. I hope you live your life as you always wish, I hope you will find happiness. I love you A' In, I always do" Wang talks to one of the framed old pictures that he holds, a picture of the 2 most beloved men in his entire life. 

"Wang!, darling, come on, or you will be late for your graduation ceremony" my mother's voice is heard from the living room

"Yes, Darling, I'm coming"

Inthawut POV

My heart is beating like crazy, I feel my hand shaking so I have to clench it. It's been 4 years, and I want to come to him sooner, but I can't find the courage to do that. Today is his graduation day, I know this is my only chance to talk to him, so I gather my courage and take a deep breath as I walk slowly in his direction

"Wang..." He turns around and looks at me with an unreadable expression

"Oh, my God, he is growing to become more handsome than before, even more than..."

"A' In..." 

I smile at him, but my heart almost drops when a beautiful man with short brown hair, light skin, and light brown eyes, dressed prettily and stylish in soft yellow color with a khaki ankle boot, links his arm with Wang and looks at me curiously

"Wang, who is this?"

Wang turns to him, smiling gently as he put his hand on him

"This is A' In" the pretty man looks at Wang and both of them talk in silence through their eyes, then the pretty man smile and turns to me, reaching out his hand for a handshake

"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Daisy" I shake his hand, then take a deep breath. My heart aches, it's been 4 years, and the possibility of him having a lover is high, but, I had made up my mind, and I have been this far, I can't back off now

"Can I have your time, Wang, it won't take too long" Wang smiled at me and then caressed Daisy's hand, lovingly, before he lean on and whisper to Daisy's ear

"Ok, see you soon, lovers boy" Daisy kissed Wang's cheek before he left and smile meaningfully at me 

 .....

Both of them are now sitting across from each other, after a few minutes of silence, Wang is the first to break it

"What do you want to talk about, A'In? you are not here just to congratulate me, right?" 

Inthawut takes a few deep breaths before he looks straight into Wang's eyes, he hesitant but in the end, he starts to talk, there is a hint of sadness in his tones

"I miss you. I'm sorry, to come to you like this"

" I'm a coward, I know that. It's taken all my lifetime courage for me to come to you"
