"Yearning in Silence"

special episode

Third person's POV

A year later.

"Do I look good?" Chay asked Macau who was sitting on the couch reading a magazine, wearing a black suit.

He glanced at Chay for a little while, and then shifts his attention back to the magazine.

"Yeah, you don't need to worry about looking good, you are handsome" he simply replies

"But I have to look good, it's an important day!" He grumbles, removing his necktie and changing it with a bow.

"Calm down Chay, why are you so nervous, you're not the one getting married. " Macau told him.

Chay rolled his eyes.

Macau has no idea how important this day is for Chay, and he won't tell him either.

After a few minutes of complaining and examining himself on the full-length mirror, he left the room with Macau.

Chay is so excited about this day that he feels his knees weakening, his heart drumming off his chest as he knocks on the grooms fitting room.

There he saw his beloved brother wearing a white suit, looking like an angel, with his hair pushed back, and a beautiful smile plastered on his lips, and his eyes teary.

Chay run towards him, and scold him.

"No, no don't cry, you'll ruin your make up!" Chay scolded as he gently wiped the unshed tear on his brother's eyes

"I'm happy so for you Phi, I'm sure mom would have been so happy for you as well."

Chay is back, the old Chay. The gentle one, the nice, kind Chay, the one who has the golden heart.

He's back, month after the talk with Kim, he found himself in the process of forgiving Kim.
And he's much better now, much happier.

Porsche give Chay a knowing smile after what Chay said.

Porsche knew everything that had happened between Chay and Kim. He was mad at Kim in the beginning but he eventually forgive him as Kim keeps telling him that he love Chay so much, and that he'll love Chay for as long as he can.

...

"How do I look, do I look alright?" Kim asked his brother tankhun as he studies himself on the mirror.

"Ai Kim, do you doubt my fashion style? Of course you look handsome, I'm your brother." Tankhun confidently uttered

Kim only shakes his head, and turned his attention to Kinn who was reciting the vow for god knows how many times now.

" I feel bad for P'Porsche, he deserves better. " He teases, Kinn glared at him but he smirked at Kim

"I'm pretty sure Chay deserved better too." Kinn bites back

That's below the belt, it made Kim shuts his mouth, and he is suddenly nervous again.

For the first time in a year after what happened the night at the convenience store, he's going see Chay again.

Kinn and Tankhun knew what happened between them, as they were so worried about Kim coming home drunk and crying or dazed most of the time. Kim received lots of scolding from his brothers though, but at the very least they helped him get through it, they told him that "you two will find your way back together eventually, but you have to make things right if that happens" which made Kim hopeful, and he copes with his problems better, he stops getting drunk.

***

As all of the visitors are now on the aisle. Kinn was Infront waiting for Porsche to enter the room.

Kim was so nervous that he felt his hands sweating, bet he's more nervous than the groom. His heart beating rapidly and that's when he heard everyone gasps as they took Porsche appearance, he looked so handsome.
Everyone looked so proud, especially Pete and tankhun who were crying. But Kim's focus was none of them... His eyes only focused on him... Chay in all mighty, much more prettier than he last saw him, much more happier. But Chay didn't notice him, or so that's what Kim thought.

Chay was everything but calm, he can feel everything inside him shaking, he's finally seeing Kim after a year.

"Are you ready?" He asked his brother, as they wait for the church door to open

"Are YOU?" Porsche asked him back with a smile. It made Chay's cheek turn crimson red but he nodded nonetheless

As they walk inside the aisle Chay was looking everywhere but Kim, he's trying to avoid looking at him to make his heart rate calm, for him to not run towards Kim and hug him tightly.

As the wedding went on, the exchange of vows, giving each other the ring, and then kissing.

Most of those times Kim and Chay would steal glances, but their eyes never met.

***

When Chay went out the reception he walks to the fountain near the place. It's almost dusk some of the shiniest stars are visible, the sky is clear, it's the beautiful color of purple and pink combined, and the wind breeze made it more perfect.

Taking a deep breath, Chay closes his eyes and he mutters "this is perfect."

A few seconds later  he hears footsteps, and when he opened his eyes he smiles knowingly.

Kim stood Infront of Chay just few meters  away, they stared at each other's eye, this time both held nothing but love, both eyes holding the universe.

Their path crossed again. Finally they thought

Their heart finally beats in synch this time, no words to utter, no words could explain how they feel right now.

So they let their eyes speak for them, as they smiled at each other genuinely, the sound of their heart is the only sound they could hear, enough for them to know what the other thinks.

Enough for them to take a step forward and clashed their lips together. It's not rush, it's slow, it's full of the love they had for each other—
it's... Perfect.

This time both of them are ready, both of them knew this is the right time, both of them knew that the stars are aligned for them.

When they pulled away, their forehead pressed to one another,  the only thing they both uttered was..

"Finally."
