King&Knight

XX

A year later, Rain was happily running around the castle to check on decorations. He was going to meet Sky after a year and Rain was hyper excited.

After everything settled, both Phayu and PraPai became too busy so Sky couldn’t return back to the city nor Rain could go out to meet him.

Unlike modern times, travelling was very inconvenient and both Phayu and PraPai weren’t comfortable to have their partner travel without them.

Rain’s happiness was visible through his face, the main reason for everyone gathered was Shan and Un’s wedding.

Even Fang and Tan were returning from the border, though everything had settled the young couple remained on the border as Tan was promoted to General within a year and Fang felt like he couldn’t live without Tan.

The King and Queen were both happy yet sad for their youngest child but they couldn’t do anything against Fang’s wish.

“Rain, calm down… there’s still a couple of days before Sky comes..” Phayu told Rain in worry but his husband ignored him.

“My Sky is coming! Everything should be perfect! Plus my brother is getting married! I can't take a risk!” Rain replies instead as he looks through decoration. 

Rain had the whole castle decorated with flowers that passerby would stop to admire the Castle’s view. Phayu pout and wrapped his arm around Rain and spoke, 

“You care more about Sky than me..”

“Bro before Hoe! P’Phayu!” Rain commented which made Phayu sigh, he still couldn’t understand what Rain meant most of the time.

“Aren’t you tired? You woke up so early! Usually I have to drag you out of bed!” Phayu complained which made Rain roll his eyes instead 

“Sky or me!” Phayu spoke suddenly which made Rain to stab him in stomach 

The younger man turned around and glared at Prince angrily, “Know your place, Phee. You won’t be happy to know the answer…”

“So brutal..” Phayu whispered in disappointment.

Rain ignored Phayu and decided to check on Un who was looking through jewelleries with the Queen. The Queen’s face light up on seeing Rain and she shouted 

“Rain! Come fast! See this! I chose these Four pendants! How are they?” 

Even Phayu followed Rain and sat beside him while looking at pendants, “So pretty, mom.” Rain commented as he pick the pendent that he liked 

“Is it for us, Mom?” Phayu asked in curiosity which made Queen roll her eyes

“I won’t even spend a penny on you guys!  This is for Sky, Rain, Fang and Un..” Queen replies as he puts the pendent that Rain liked, around his neck.

Rain sticks out his tongue to Phayu who sulks instead, “Mom, why you treat me and PraPai so badly. If people didn’t know, they might think we are your step children…”

“Oh… how did you find out?!” Queen said while gasping while Phayu looks at her in annoyance 

“I picked You and PraPai from the street, Fang and Un are my only children. That’s why I forced you to take the King's responsibility and PraPai for managing the Army! So both my children can live a peaceful life…” Queen said in happy tone as she hugs Un who was laughing 

“Mom is so funny, why don’t you perform in opera?” Phayu spoke sarcastically 

“I used to! My sister and I decided to perform at the opera, hiding from our parents! That’s how we met your dad and his younger brother, if only I had listened to my sister! We would have been safe from these silly royal brothers!” The Queen complained which made everyone laugh in amusement.
