Chapter 22

Sorry for the long awaits!!!!

-continue from the last part-

Kongpob and Arthit sat on the table, tension wrecked both of their emotions. Arthit was about to tell his parents about their relationship before it was too late to solve. Kongpob clutched Arthit's hand tightly on the table as Arthit dialed his Mom's number with shaking hands. Heart beating so fast, one couldnt stay calm and collected, with both of their hearts and finger crossed, Arthit's mom picked up the phone

"Hello, Arthit?" His mom said in a soft gentle voice. Arthit thought about what would that gentle voice turn to be after she heard the news

"Mom..." Arthit swallowed hard "There's actually one thing i want to tell.." His heart was pouding louder and louder as he tightened his fist. "Actually..-"

"Sorry, Honey. I'm kind of in the middle of something right now. Let's talk later okay?" She said without pausing and immediately hung up the phone.

Arthit put his phone down, letted out a relieve sigh and looked back at Kongpob.

"I guess..we have to try another time later" Kongpob shrugged

"Let's call your parents then!" Arthit exclaimed. As nervous as he could be, he really wanted to know and settle everything once and for all so they both can be with another peacefully.

"The thing is..." Kongpob drew his eyebrow "i already talked to my parents about p'Arthit" he gave Arthit a reassuring smile.

"What?" Arthit furrowed curiously "since when? Why didn't you tell me about it!! What did they say"

Kongpob chuckled with a broad smile "since about a few months ago. I know these matters are inevitable. Like i said..i've always wanted to convince you regarding these matters but I reconsidered it because I thought you werent mentally prepared for this"

*flashbacks* (again, i know, sorry xD)

It was songkran day of Thai new year, the school was on a two weeks break. The city had gotten so quiet with almost no traffic because everyone else is on their trips and vacation or going back their hometowns, reuniting with their family.

Kongpob packed his suitcase, ready to got on the bus to Ayutthaya, always remember to bring Arthit's gear with him because during his stays in Ayutthaya with his parents, he's going to tell them the truth about his relationship with a man that he held dear, Arthit. There was no point of keeping it confidential with the elders. In fact, it would be way more comfortable loving each other if their parents knew whether or not they object or acknowledge.

He was dropped off at the Station of Ayutthaya as he saw his family waiting for him with a warming, most comforting smile. He wondered if that smiles would turn into frowns after they heard the news. Butterflies in his stomach was rummaging his bodies. He took a deep sighed and pray for the best 

"Kong!" His mom exclaimed as Kongpob prepares to unload his luggage from the big bus. She went on her full speed and patted Kongpob's back with a gentle motherly hug

"Sawadee khap, mom! Sawadee khap, dad" Kongpob formed his hand in a Wai toward his mother and father.

"Er, Kong! Our car is right there" his dad pointed across the street "you must be tired now, let's go" his dad helped him with some luggages. Clenching his backpack strap as he followed his dad to the car.

By the time they arrive his house, it was exactly time for lunch. His mom beckoned one of her maid to prepare a family meal as Kongpob settled his belongings in his room. The moment his motioned into his room, every piece of nostalgia pierced through his memories, when he used to sleep on that bed everyday for the majority of his lifetime.
