Worlds Apart

Chapter 10: Memories and Feelings

WP-2

It has been a few days since the supposed breakfast that they had Sky and Rain join their family. Sky and Rain had been closed off in their room only to be pulled out by both Porsche and Pete 'for fresh air'. Tankhun joined them after hearing that the four were at the gardens, he was showing off his Koi's to the boys when Pete told them of the story on how Porsche accidentally killed Tankhun's Kois back then. Rain giggled as Porsche then proceeded on retelling their stories back when he just started working in the compound and how even back then, Tankhun's been real flashy. Sky does join with a small voice and smiles whenever the older men say something really funny. He can't believe the stories he's hearing but he can still see Porsche and Pete are happy with their lives right now.

'Can I also be happy like them? Am I really allowed to meet such people?'

Rain had been such a strong support for him. He knew how terrified had been but the latter really went beyond his fears for Sky. And Sky will forever be grateful for meeting Rain.

Pai looked on as he sat on his room's balcony, just by the compound's garden he could see his Pa Porsche trying to coax Rain and Sky into joining his and uncle Pete's mini war of teasing Tankhun. Rain was the first to join in and Sky just smiled at the four's antics. Pai smiled as well, he just loved the way Sky smiles. His Sky might have been closed off the first few times they met, but when he finally saw Sky's genuine and unguarded smile he knew that's it for him. His life of being a playboy has finally found its stop and he would gladly take that for Sky's smile.

Seeing as this world's Sky still has that very same smile, he felt the rush of happiness he felt back then. He knew he shouldn't really be feeling this way, but it's Sky. No matter what world, he would still fall for Sky. The dread he felt when he first realized that he's nowhere near his Sky, and the happiness he's feeling now is just too strong. He loves Sky. That's all. No what ifs, no whatever. Just that simple.

Pai sighs thinking back to his Sky.

'I hope Prapai is taking care of him. I hope when I return... IF I ever return, that I would still have my love beside me.'

Pai decided to go down when he saw a bodyguard bring what looked like books. He knew how much Sky loved books, well... Mangas actually...

"Here! Look! My baby is just so cute!" Pai could hear Porsche's voice as he neared the gardens. When he rounded the corner he saw Porsche showing Sky which he could only guess as an album based on what he had just heard.

"O-Oh~" Sky's quiet response was nowhere near how curious he looked into the album.

"H-He is cute..." a barely there smile was there. Pai stopped a bit to savor that smile before deciding to look at 'his' album, being curious how this world's Prapai was back then. He looked at the other side and saw his uncle Pete doing the same with Rain, only he was almost absolutely sure that it was Venice's photos.

"Pa, what are you showing them?" Pai asked, smiling at how Porsche looked at him fondly.

"Here Pai! Look you're so cute when you were a baby!" Porsche let him see the photos as he sat down beside Sky who stiffened for a second before relaxing once more.

'I'm glad he's no longer terrified of me.' Pai thought smiling down at Sky as the boy looked down but not before Pai could see him blush. 'My Sky is so cute!'

They continued to look through the album when Pai started feeling dizzy at first only to be followed by a very sharp headache.

'What's this? What are these scenes?' Pai thought as scenes from what he thinks are the memories from this body's owner came flooding his mind. He didn't really know what he was doing but based on Porsche and Sky's worried faces he might just be shouting at the top of his lungs. Then everything went black.
