Justice.

Hey guys :)
I would like ask you to read my little text at the end of this chapter. There is a little information in there about this book. :)

But for now - have fun with this chapter!

🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙

The clock struck eleven and the hall was in an uproar. It was full - the trial of the year. Many people who had been harmed by Kamon and his machinations were here, the press, people who simply wanted to fight for justice. They were all here to hear a satisfactory result today.
Kamon, who was sitting in a wheelchair with his arm in a cast next to his public defender, suddenly no longer looked so confident of victory. He almost seemed as if he was terrified. He looked nervously around the hall, as far as his injuries allowed. The crowd whispered, many spoke so loudly that Kamon could hardly ignore their hatred. "Are you okay, Sun?" asked Khaotung and the older man nodded. "Yes... this whole thing is giving me flashbacks to my trial back then." Khaotung nodded and bit his lower lip. "You are here and you are with us. And that is what counts." He said, patting Suns hand, which was resting on his knee.

"Please stand up for the verdict." said the judge. Hours and hours of court proceedings today alone, the last few weeks were hell for everyone. Khaotung and Sun had to relive their trauma over and over again. Misses Khamsaen had to talk about her dead daughter for hours and hours.. Arya had to confirm that his father was abusive.. over and over again.. the trial was hard for everyone but today was the day.. The trial for Kamon would finally come to an end. Khaotung and the others gave their statements. A former accomplice of Kamon also testified - for Khaotung - telling the whole truth about Khaotungs parents and the drugs they found in their blood. Weeks of fear and hope, of suffering and joy were now coming to an end. Khaotung sat in the front row between First and Sun. Arya and Coco sat behind them, while Rung was in the witness stand for the second time today and sat in a different seat.

"Officer Samkit Sawath Mongkhon is sentenced to thirty-five years in prison for aiding and abetting murder, embezzlement of evidence, and covering up drug dealing in more than fifteen cases." The judge began and Khaotung watched as Aryas expression changed. He seemed happy about the justice and, of course, terribly hurt because it was still his father who was at stake. Coco held him tightly in her arms and didn't quite know how to react herself either. Khao turned back to the judge, who was adjusting his glasses. Aof, who was sitting behind Sun, grabbed Khaotungs and Suns shoulders with his hands and squeezed lightly to signal to them that he was there. He was there, Sun was there, First and also Khaos grandma were there. He was not alone.

His nervous stomach was bothering him again. He felt sick and his breathing was too fast, he noticed that, but he couldn't change it because he knew that now there would be a result that would drastically change his life... Whether for better or worse, only time would tell. The evidence against Kamon was very strong and any normal person would immediately see that he was in big trouble.
The testimony of the former accomplice also incriminated Kamon in other cases that Khao and the others knew nothing about. In addition to the rape of his sister, there was also a case of a fifteen-year-old girl, who got raped by Kamon himself.. There were other cases of drug sales that were not even officially recorded in the files, but that Samkit knew about. Samkit was more deeply involved than Khao and his family originally thought. This didn't make it any easier for Arya to despise his father, but it still fueled a great deal of anger in the young police officer.

"The jury has deliberated and has come to a clear conclusion..." The judge began... Khao almost crushed his boyfriends hand. His heart was pounding hard, he felt a lump in his throat and Khaotung was firmly convinced that he would collapse at any second. "Mister Kamon Kongchai Khamsaen, is sentenced to life imprisonment in the maximum security prison in Nonthaburi for drug trafficking and drug abuse, rape and murder of his sister Boon-Nam Khamsaen, sexual abuse of a minor, and the double murder of Mister and Misses Rattanakitpaisan. He has no right to early release, even if he behaves well. No right to parole and no right to another hearing. The case is now closed." The judge dropped the gavel and time stood still. For a moment Khao thought he had heard wrong, but when Sun and the others jumped up and could hardly contain their joy, he realized that he had done it. Khaotung had done it. He had achieved the right punishment for Kamon and thus justice for his parents. "We did it !" Sun said and pulled Khao up from his chair. "WE DID IT MY BOY !" He said again and pulled Khaotung in a hug. He held the young boy tightly in his arms, silently crying just like Khaotung himself. "We did it. Justice won !" He said. Khaotung was overcome by a wave of emotions. His body felt numb and as if he could hardly control it anymore. He clung tightly to Sun and cried and cried. Sun stroked his head and looked at him briefly before finally letting go and hugging his mother. Meanwhile, Khaotung fell into Firsts arms. First, who could hardly hold back his relief and tears, held him and gently patted his back. "We did it baby." First said. Khaotung broke away from the embrace slightly and looked into the eyes of his boyfriend. "We did it." said Khaotung and kissed First euphorically. "I love you." "I love you, Khaotung."

"I can't believe it." Khaotung said taking off his shirt and tossing it into a laundry basket. "This all feels so surreal. My parents finally got justice. For the first time. I can hardly believe it." Khaotung said and looked at his boyfriend, who was leaning against the sink opposite him. "Now I can finally live my life. With you. I can finally live in peace and cherish the memory of my parents without constantly breaking out in fear." "We're building a wonderful life for ourselves in which we cherish your parents and celebrate the life they lived." said First and gave Khao a kiss on the cheek. Khao pressed himself against First and smiled. He ran his hand over his boyfriends bare arms and giggled. "You have goosebumps." he said and First giggled himself. "It's cold standing here like this, I'm just waiting for us to finally be able to get in the shower." First and Khao looked at each other. There was nothing sexual in the air. Just love and their togetherness. The closeness and warmth that both of them desperately needed right now.
First turned on the warm water and disappeared into the large, ground-level rain shower. Khao, who was hurrying to undress, jumped in a short time later and fell into the other's arms again.

The trial was a reason to celebrate. Celebrate that justice won. They could have gone with Sun and the others. They could have gone out to eat together, had a drink and celebrated until the sun came up again.

But this was so much more. This was what they both needed. Time together, peace and closeness. A moment to let go, not having to hold back any emotions. To talk to each other, to know that they understood each other even without words. This was their life. This was their new beginning. This was them, being together, looking forward to a life together.

This was their peace.

-The end-
