Very much in tune with the original story from the series, SOTUS.
Just added a few thoughts of my own of what the characters were thinking and some parts that were left for our imaginations from the series.
If people have not read my other story, t...
We got to the beach by bus. I spotted Wad in the crowd with his friends. I was glad he came on the trip. I was looking forward to sitting on the same bus as him but I wasn't able to. But then again, even if I was able to sit next to him, what would I say?
Still feeling all sorts of ways, I carried the supply boxes off the buses along with Knott and Toota. I was in charge of putting the projector system together in the big hall. The box that had all the wires for the speaker system was a mess. It was just a big ball of wires. I sat my butt down and started untangling. I kept getting frustrated and I laid down on the floor and fell asleep.
After some time, I felt the wire in my hands being tugged. I blinked tiredly and sat up yawning. There was someone sitting next to me. It was Wad.
For a second, I thought I was dreaming.
'Wad?'
'P'Prem, you're awake...'
He was untangling the ball of wires I was working on earlier. I looked at my watch. It was 8.30 PM. I was asleep for 4 hours! Oh shit! Arthit would kill me if I didn't finish this tonight.
I looked at him, 'What are doing...here?'
'I was walking by when I saw the door open, so I just peeked in and saw you. I thought something was wrong because you weren't moving. I got you some dinner since the cafeteria closes at 8.'
He pointed at a bowl of chicken and rice. He even got me some juice.
'Thank you so much Wad...so how was your day so far? Enjoyed the beach?'
He began telling me about Kongpope almost drowning in the water. I suspected that something was up between Arthit and Kongpope but didn't dwell on it too much.
I watched him closely while eating. He was focused on untangling the wires that he didn't notice me staring. He had this habit of pushing his hair back everytime a strand came loose. Every time he did, I felt like I wanted to keep watching him to do it again and again. Then, he did something that made me freeze. He leaned towards me and ran his thumb next to my mouth as if to wipe something off.
He must have realized what he did because he froze in surprise at his own actions. We were both surprised.
'uhh...P'Prem, I'm done untangling the wires....do you need help with connecting the system?'
'No....Wad..I'm fine. I can do it. It won't take long. Thank you for the dinner and helping with the wires. Now, get back to your friends. There is a curfew too.'
I stood up and so did he. His foot got caught on one of the wires and he tripped. I stepped forward right away and he fell on my chest. I was hoping he didn't hear my thundering heart.
He looked up at me. The image of the cat from the movie, Puss in Boots came to mind.
