2012.
"We're leaving now na Phuwin!" Phuwin's mother calls out to inform 9 years old Phuwin. It was already the 3rd business trip this month.
The door slams shut, leaving the house in dead silence. Phuwin walks around the empty house, he had money but he doesn't have love. He finally decided to hangout at his best friend, Gemini, who's mansion was just a few blocks away.
Gemini was his friend. His only friend, actually. Phuwin was homeschooled and doesn't socialize much. He was a rather shy and quiet kid.
Phuwin walks out, his small hands locking the front door behind him. He wore on his shoes and ran towards Gemini's home. His feet rustling on the dried leaves as he ran.
"Knock knock, Gemini!!!" Phuwin calls out. He waits a few minutes until the
door creaks open.
"Phuwin? What are you doing here?" 8 year old Gemini stood at the front door.
"My parents went on a business trip again. I'm bored can we play?" Phuwin's eyes shine with excitement.
"Sure! My mom just bought me new toys!!!" Gemini giggles pulling in Phuwin. They ran up the stairs into Gemini's room.
"Oho! Gemini!! Your room is so huge! And there's superman and Ultraman! WOWW!!" Phuwin runs around Gemini's room, touching almost everything he owns.
"Feel free to stay here or hangout anytime you want! It's not the first time anyways." Gemini smiles.
They sat on the couch while playing some toy cars and superheroes. Gemini's mother came to check on Gemini. Phuwin watched the scene infront of him with sadness, knowing he can never get to experience this kind of mother son love.
"Mae!!" Gemini hugs his mother, his small body covered by his mother.
"Having fun with Phuwin?" Mae Ning asks Gemini, she pats Phuwin's head gently.
"Yup! So much fun mama!!" Gemini screams in excitement.
"I'm glad you have fun. Sleep early ok?" Mae Ning pulls Gemini into a tight hug again. "Are you planning on staying here tonight Nong Phuwin?" Mae Ning asks concerned.
"Yes..if that's ok?" Phuwin asks shyly. His fingers fidget with each other.
"Of course I'll grab you some extra blankets and clothes." Mae Ning nods and left the room.
"Thanks!" Phuwin and Gemini says at the same time. They look at each other and burst out laughing like brothers. They collapse onto the bed next to each other.
"You're so lucky" Phuwin suddenly whispers.
"How? You're lucky too, you have money and everything" Gemini replies.
"You have love from your parents. While mine doesn't even appear in my life that much. Sometimes I wish I had different lives" Phuwin whispers, his voice cracking.
"I'm here for you! I can play with you and keep you entertained!" Gemini exclaims. He sits up and tickles Phuwin.
The room filled with laughter until they were tucked into sleep.
Almost every day goes by like this until one particular day......
"Knock knock! It's your favorite brother!" Phuwin giggles.
Mae Ning opens the door, a suitcase in her arm. Little Gemini behind her.
"Oh! Nong Phuwin! Are you here to hangout with Gemini?" Mae Ning kneels down to talk to Phuwin.
"Yes..where are you guys going?" Phuwin asks softly. His heart thumping for the answer.
"We're going on a family vacation dear.." Mae Ning explains. "I'm sorry but you can't hangout with Gemini for these few days.." Mae Ning spoke softly. Afraid to have hurt Phuwin.
"Oh..um..that's ok..have fun! Bye Gemini!" Phuwin hides his disappointment and sadness in him. He was used to these kind of replies and situations. Despite him being 9 years old he was more mature than kids his age.
He walks back slowly to his own home or what he would call just a empty mansion. He would kick some pebbles or leafs in sadness.
He kicks his shoes aside and unlocks the front door, stepping inside slowly.
He walks upstairs into his own room, sitting down on his bed staring out the window. Gemini's family car drives passed Phuwin's house, flashing across his eyes.
Phuwin sighs, hoping one day his parents would do the same. His phone vibrates, a new message.
"Phuwin, are you eating well? We're not returning this Friday. There's another emergency meeting na.." Phuwin's mother messages him. Phuwin quickly reads it and tosses it aside. Too annoyed to reply.
He curls himself up and stares out the window. "I wish I was born in a different family" He whispers to himself. The rain poured outside, each time the wind blows, rain hits the window. The raindrops sliding down the window as if it understands Phuwin's emotions.
"thud" a loud drop makes Phuwin jump.
"Who's there!?" Phuwin backs away. He slowly picks up an item, his hands trembling.
He decided to look down from the window, he saw a fragile boy lying on the ground. The rain pouring heavily on him.
"Omg!!" Phuwin screams. He quickly rushes downstairs, grabbing an umbrella on his way out.
He turns the door open, revealing a fragile hurt boy on the ground. "Are you ok?" Phuwin walks over to him and covers themselves with the umbrella.
The boy looks up. His dark brown eyes meeting Phuwin's eyes, as if electric was connected between them. Phuwin checks out the boy's body, it was covered in mud, a bloody bruise on his knee. He looks much older. Maybe around 11-12 years old? Phuwin thought.
The boy doesn't reply. He just stares into Phuwin's eyes.
"I'll bring you inside first" Phuwin helps him off the mud and brings him inside.
The rain continues, the weather chilly and comfortable.
Phuwin brings him to the bathroom and helps to clean the bruise. He tries to make small conversations.
"What's your name?" Phuwin asks, using the cotton pad to clean up the blood.
"Pond. Pond Naravit." The boy answers. His voice was those cute yet boyish voice.
Phuwin looks up at Pond. Phuwin smiles and introduced himself. "I'm Phuwin! Phuwin Tangsakyuen!"
Pond smiles, his gummy smile revealing his teeth. "How old are you?"
"I'm 9 years old!" Phuwin replies. His voice high pitched due to excitement. He was happy he's about to make a new friend.
"Oh! I'm 11 years old!" Pond giggles. "Where's your parents..?" Pond looks around.
Phuwin paused, "Oh.. they are usually out on business trips or just busy..so I'm left alone." he then replies. "Don't worry I won't bite" he joked to lighten up the sad story on his parents.
"Oh..well..then friends?" Pond offers, his hand held out to shake Phuwin's.
"Sure!" Phuwin shakes Pond hand happily.
Pond hisses when Phuwin accidentally presses too hard on his bruise.
"Sorry!!" Phuwin quickly pulls his hand back and apologizes.
"It's okay..I'm just sensitive to bruises and pain" Pond shrugs.
"Do you go to school?" Phuwin asks while putting on the bandage on Pond's knee bruise.
"Unfortunately, no. My parents can't afford school so.." Pond just shrugs. As if he's already used to this kind of life.
"Oh...um..sorry.." Phuwin whispers.
"No it's nothing its ok" Pond smiles.
"Let's go up to my room and play! And since we're alone at home...let's snack!" Phuwin giggles and Pond follows.
They ended up running around the house while the rain outside adds a new kind of comfort.
