'Let them talk. Don't forget P doesn't know about you and New. You only told him that he wanted to repay your kindness..... Because you rescued him from that alley.' Thada scolded me in the kitchen.
'And he bought it! He really is a stupid person.'
'That's because he trusts New, not because he is stupid. He knows New wouldn't make unnecessary friends.' Thada wasn't happy with my attitude. I also knew it's wrong badmouthing P Waii but I can't help it.
'You stay here, I am going to spy on them.'
'Hey!'
But I swiftly ran towards the living room.
After reaching the door I didn't go inside but peeked.'But I was angry! They told me you are in love with that boy...Thada....And you didn't deny it!'
'Sorry....' New was standing with an apologetic smile on his face.
'If Tay didn't come........'
'How did you meet him?'
'He came to the office. He begged for a meeting and when I agreed he told me the whole truth.' P Waii was scowling.
'What else ....did he say?' New was watching P Waii intently. He was tensed.
'That he overheard Mint and her friends conversation and found out that Mint is completely a different person when not with him....and that mom dad want to use him only as a pawn to gain contracts from Vihokratana group. He was desperate and thought about you. You promised him to help in any situation because once he rescued you from that alley. So you planned all this just to break their relationship.'
Oh god! The most unbelievable story! But P Waii believed that!!
'Mn. I promised him so I had to keep it.' New's face was very serious but his body became visibly relaxed.
Huh! You are laughing inside.
'Are you guys close?'
'He was my saviour and you know I always took care of them who are nice to me.'
What saviour Hin! It was me who put you in danger in the first place!
'Don't do this kind of thing in the future. Just tell me everything and I will take care of it for you.' P Waii also nodded.
'Yes Hiya.' The most obedient brother. I Snicker inwardly.
'About your identity.....'
'Let them use it Hiya. I don't mind.'
'New.....you know I don't see you as my brother....you are my....' P Waii took a step forward.
Hey!!
'Hiya....you are my elder brother.....no one can change that .... not even you.' But this time a new kind of determination was displayed in New's voice.
'New!' P stopped on his track.
'I love you and respect you.....I think the world of you......but Hiya .....you are my brother... Please..... accept this reality.' His soft voice was full of respect but at the same time he was showing his unwillingness.
'Let's not talk about this here...'
'I have nothing more to say.'
'You and I are not blood related....we can have any kind of relationship we want...' P Waii wasn't ready to accept this.
'I want to be your brother..... nothing more nothing less.' But New also wasn't ready to back off.
'Why are you suddenly behaving like this?' P was trying to read his expression.
