Chapter 10

Whack !!

Disco's first punch hit the wall. But when he was about to punch again, Jump came in time to stop Disco. The boy threw himself up and grabbed Disco's arm.

"Dis, don't," said Jumper, his voice shaking.

"Let go of me!!" said Disco in a harsh voice. His eyes were bright red with anger, but there were traces of sadness mixed in.

"No, Jump won't let go. Why does P' Dis have to hurt himself like this?" Jump said feeling pity to see Disco in that state. He really didn't want to see the tall figure hurt himself like that.

"It's about me, you don't have to worry !!" Disco said again feeling frustrated. Jumper let go of Disco's arms and stood with his arms crossed in front of Disco, leaning against the wall.

"Come on, if you want to punch, then punch. Punch me. That is still less painful than punching a wall." Jumper said determined to take the hit. Disco looked at Jumper and paused for a bit. The hand that hit the wall trembled with pain, blood seeping out

"Whoa!" Disco yelled angrily before sitting down on the bed and raising both hands to touch his head. Jumper sighed slightly that Disco doesn't think about hitting the wall anymore. The young man walked over and sat next to Disco. While slowly reaching out to hold Disco's hand to examine the wound. Without saying a word, Disco lets Jumper look at the back of his hand but still had a serious expression on his face.

"Who are you angry with? Why don't you punch that person? Why are you punching the wall?" Jump asked aloud. Disco slightly turned to look at Jumper.

"So are you going to let me punch that old face?" Disco asked back making Jumper smile slyly as he could imagine that the person Disco was angry with was Disco's father.

"Huh, I forgot, how can P'Dis punch his own father?" Jumper said.

"He's not my father," Disco replied stiffly.

"Pee Dis, I won't ask you what the problem Pee Dis's  has with his father. But I don't want to see P'Dis like this. Seriously, do you hurt yourself often? Do you often hurt yourself like this?" Jumper asked out of curiosity. Disco was silent for a moment and didn't answer.

"If you don't want to talk, that's fine. Let me heal your wounds." Jumper said back. Jumper had then completely forgotten about seducing Disco because he was still dazed and shocked by the events that had happened. And he was worried about Disco when he saw him hurt himself by punching a wall. Jump walked to the living room to retrieve the first aid box. The tall figure was still sitting with his head bowed in the same position. His expression was still stern as before. Jump grabbed Disco's hand and gently wiped away the blood.

"My mother died when I was fifteen," said a sad voice causing Jump to freeze a bit because he knew that Disco was about to tell Jump about himself.

"At that time I came to study here. This house is my mother's house. My grandmother bought it. So my mother let me live here by myself and she went back and forth with him," Disco said about his father but refused to use the word 'father'.

"I was happy until I dated one senior. She was a Thai person who came to study here as well. 3 years older than me, I was 15, my girlfriend was 18," Disco said in a sarcastic tone. While Jumper sat and listened in silence along with attending to Disco's wound.

"I took my girlfriend to meet my mother and that person to introduce. My girlfriend got along well with people at my home. We went to see each other for a while," Disco continued to tell. His eyes stared blankly at the floor.

"But one day, my mother and I went out to see my mother's friend in another city. As for that person, he went out to discuss work with customers. It shouldn't be anything. If my mother and I don't come back to see ..l." Disco said before halting, both hands clenched tightly together. Jumper himself was shocked and had to lightly stroke the back of Disco to comfort him.
