"Hey baby." Yok hugged Ray, who was sitting on the couch, watching TV, from behind. Ray looked up and smiled at his boyfriend. "You look like you have something on your mind, do you want to talk about it?" Asked as he sat down next to his boyfriend.
"I've been thinking about Namtan and Mark...I've seen them cry so many times in the past few months, it breaks my heart..." muttered Ray.
"Mine too...it's just so unfair that you guys have to feel this way. That this burden is put on you. Especially Mark and Nam." Yok snuggled up to Ray, resting his head against his shoulder and intertwining his fingers with his boyfriend's.
"I just wish we could take away their pain and make everything more comfortable for her...I mean at least she's spending a nice evening with her friends.""There's not much we can do for them right now, sunshine. We're already doing everything in our power." Yok tried to make the other feel better. Ray gave him a kiss on the top of his head, of course Yok was right, they were already doing their best.
"My father indirectly told me to divorce her today," muttered Ray. Yok's eyes widened in shock.
"He can't be for real, can he?" Yok asked and sat up. Ray had an incredulous and angry expression on his face.
"They're crazy, completely crazy," he muttered as he snuggled into Yok's arms.
"We'll make it through this, we'll make it through this," Yok wrapped his arms around Ray. "We got this." He wanted to believe it, he wanted to believe in this wonderful future they would have one day, so much. He wasn't sure if it would become reality one day, but he wanted to believe it, wanted it to be true, to still have that last spark of hope.
Yok woke up to a loud noise in the living room. Sleepily, he grabbed a T-shirt and shuffled toward the living room.
"Namtan? What are you doing?" He asked in surprise as he saw the young woman stumble through the living room.
"OwYoooooook." Slurred Namtan, turning in his direction with a drunken grin.
"You're drunk! Why are you drunk?" Yok asked in shock, after all Namtan was trying to get pregnant, so an alcoholic escapade wasn't exactly a good idea.
"I just couldn't take it anymore," Namtan mumbled, stumbling into her best friend's arms.
"I think I should put you to bed, what do you think?" Yok asked gently, brushing a strand of her hair out of Namtan's face.
"I think I'm going to puke."
"Then maybe it would be better if I took you to the bathroom or?" With a gentle smile on his lips, Yok supported his best friend as he led her toward the bathroom.A short time later, Yok sat next to Namtan on the bathroom's marble floor, holding her hair as she hung over the toilet bowl.
"I feel like shit," Namtan muttered.
"You shouldn't have drunk so much baby," Yok said in a soft voice, stroking Namtan's back.
"I just wanted to forget," the young woman mumbled.
"I know princess, I know...I don't blame you...but you know that excessive drinking doesn't make you pregnant either, right? Rather the opposite."
"I know," Namtan muttered before sitting up and stumbling towards the sink to brush her teeth. "It's just such a big burden." She spat the toothpaste into the sink. "I just...I don't want to disappoint any of you." Namtan burst into tears and lowered herself to the bathroom floor. Immediately, Yok took her in his arms and gave her a kiss on the temple.
"You won't disappoint anyone dear, at least none who really matters. I am so incredibly proud of you and you are doing your best. That's all you can do, you're only human."
"Thank you Yoyo....thank you for being my friend," she murmured, closing her eyes.Like that they sat together in silence in the bathroom for another hour, before Yok took Namtan and helped her change into her pajamas and into his bed. He tugged her in before he too lay back in his bed, arms wrapped around his best friend, quickly sinking into a deep sleep.
"I'm scared," Namtan stared at the pregnancy test, which lay upside down on the edge of the bathtub in front of her.
"Just turn it over," Yok was a little impatient, somehow feeling like he was the father of this potential child right now.
"But...if I'm pregnant...that means I was already pregnant when I was drunk...that's bad." Namtan's eyes filled with tears in shame. Of course, she would never have gone drinking if she had even suspected anything.
"Don't worry about it, okay dear? How many weeks were you then, if you were pregnant? The 1st? 2nd? I don't think there will be any bad consequences." Yok assured his best friend.
"Okay, but you have to turn around I can't." Namtan's heart went to her throat as Yok reached out his hand and flipped the pregnancy test over.
"NO FUCKING WAY," Yok screamed, "Namtan YOU'RE GOING TO BE A MOMMY."
