Peraya One Shot

Rewrite the Stars

"Okay first years gather arounds." Minnie called out clapping her hands. Kongpob stood at the back, leaning against the wall. He had been shocked to see the lady boy here. He thought Minnie had graduated at the end of last school year. She had seen the shocked look on his face laughing. Minnie had explained she was doing her master and was asked to help once again. Kongpob smiled feeling a little embarrassed thinking she failed. He was not the only one to think that either. All the stars and moons from last year had the same expression.

"What do you think she is going to announce?" Prae asked whispering softly.

Kongpob shrugged having not a clue. Minnie was unpredictable there was no point trying to figure out her next move.

"As we all know the moon and star competition is a week away. I just want to say that you all have been doing a fantastic job, and you are going to kill it!" Everyone clapped. "With that being said, the facility informed me this morning, that they are making a slight change to the competition." Everything looked at each other confused.

"What change P'Minnie?" one of the first years asked.

"The facility decided last minute, and I mean just this morning, that last year campus moon and star would do a performance as well."

Prae and Kongpob looked at each other eyes wide.

"What? Why?!" Prae shouted. She didn't want to have to do another performance! "We don't have enough time to prepare anything!"

"They decided that it showed more school spirt if the last year moon and stars also performed. Not only that, but you two will also be the MC."

"P'Minnie, is there anyway to get us out of this?" Kongpob asked standing up straight. "I already have a quiz I need to study for and assignments to do, plus I'm part of the hazing team." His voice was calm, soft.

"My dear N'Kongpob, I'm sorry. When they told me this morning I asked the same thing. It's final. This is the way it will be moving forward."

Kongpob and Prae looked at each other shacking their head. Kongpob sighed softly. There wasn't much they could do about it.

"So...what are we going to do?" Prae asked, as they walked out of the training hall. They had a week to try and figure something out, practice for it, on top of hazing and their assignments.

"Let's sing a song, it will be easier, take less time to practice." Kongpob told her as he pulled out his phone. He was hopping to see a message from P'Arthit but was once again disappointed. "I will let you pick." He frowned, then sighed. He should have known better.

Prae watched her friend for a moment noticing the sad look on his face. She knew that look. Biting her lip, she thought about one of her favorite songs. They didn't have time to be overly picky, and this song would be prefect. "I already have a song in mind. It's my favorite right now." She pulled out her phone pulling up her playlist. She showed Kongpob the song waiting for his answer.

"I know this song." Kong mumbled as he looked back down at his phone, debating if he should let Arthit know what was going on. He mentally shook his head. "Alright let's do it." Kongpob said. After arranging too meet tomorrow at the Music and Art facility, they parted ways.

It was close to nine and Kongpob had read and reread the same paragraph over and over. He wasn't comprehending what it was saying, and he knew why. He looked outside across from him to his now ex-boyfriend dorm. Arthit hadn't closed his curtains and Kongpob could see everything. Arthit laying on his bed, a girl sitting in the desk chair next to it. They were laughing at something. Arthit didn't seem to have a care in the world. He didn't seem to care that his ex-boyfriend was just across the courtyard with a broke heart.
