THE RUN

I thought that  I could enjoy my night peacefully at home without anyone disturbing or terrorizing me and next day I would happily go to school and meet my Arthit.   But I was wrong, that Dark Figure lurked in my room at midnight and woke me up, he yelled and screamed at me and started hitting on my face-black and blue, I did not understand for what he was shouting at, since I was extremely terrified by his presence and dreaded the worst nightmare would start again.  But to my surprise, he left me bruised.   I  was so tired and  scare after  his hitting that I slept on my bed and next thing I knew was the Sun was peeping through my curtain.

I  hurried up to school only to be rejected and dejected by my Arthit's indifference.   He thought of killing myself but then something attracted my attention, for the first time instead of  sucking the energy drink, I was locking and squeezing my Arthit's lips.  I was happy with that thought and reached home.

My nanny was staying that night as she did not want to leave me alone with my UNCLE .  YES THAT DARK FIGURE WAS MY UNCLE, THE GENERATOR  OF GOODWILL, WHICH MY OWN FATHER ENTRUSTED HIM WITH  IN THIS WORLD.  MY NANNY DID NOT KNOW ABOUT IT,   BUT THAT INSTINCTIVE FEELING OF A MOTHER TO PROTECT HIS CHILD WAS ALWAYS ON THE FOREFRONT.  IT WAS BECAUSE I ALWAYS DREADED HIS PRESENCE AND HIS TOUCH.   PRIOR TO THAT NIGHT, SHE JUST HAD A DOUBT, BUT LATER I CONFIRMED BY MY ACTION THAT IT WAS THIS GRUESOME OLD MAN WHO IN ORDER TO QUENCH HIS LUST, DESIRE AND MANIFESTATION OF PERVASIVE NATURE,  EVERY NIGHT UNKNOWN TO MY OWN PARENTS AND SISTERS, HE WOULD ENTER MY GARDEN  LIKE A SNAKE,OFTEN BEGUILING ME INTO SWEET TALK AND SLOWLY COILING ME WITHIN HIS TIGHT GRIP WITH NO ESCAPE AND SWALLOWED ME WHOLE.   EVERY NIGHT HE BROKE MY EGO, MY CONFIDENCE, MY SOUL, MY HEART, MY BODY AND MY WHOLE SELF.  

THAT NIGHT TOO HE ENTERED MY ROOM AND I WAS LOOKING OUT OF THE WINDOW, WHEN SUDDENLY I FELT A HAND PULLING OR LIKE DISROBING MY PANTS,  I TURNED AND TRIED TO STOP HIM BUT HE PUSHED ME HARD ON THE BED, HE STARTED REMOVING MY PANTS, WHEN SUDDENLY I FELT AS IF I WAS BETRAYING MY ARTHIT. THIS BODY, SOUL AND MIND BELONGED ONLY TO HIM AND I CHEATING ON HIM BY BEING COWARD, WHEN ALL I COULD DO WAS TO STOP HIM, YES I DID STOP HIM BY MY PLEADING.  I KEPT ON BEGGING HIM TO LEAVE ME, BUT HE DID NOT STOP HIS ACTION INSTEAD HE CONTINUED WITH HIS ACT.  UNABLE TO CURTAIL THAT ACT ANYMORE, I TOOK THE SCISSORS FROM MY SIDE TABLE AND STABBED SEVERAL TIMES ON HIS STOMACH.  HIS SHIRT WAS STAINED WITH BLOOD AND HE FELL ON ME.  I PUSHED HIM FROM MY BODY  ONTO THE FLOOR, AND TRIED TO RUN BUT HE CLUTCHED MY LEFT FOOT AND MADE ME FELL ON THE FLOOR.  SOMEHOW I COLLECTED MYSELF AND WITH ONE LAST GLANCE I STABBED HIM ON HIS HAND.  IMMEDIATELY, HE LET GO OFF ME AND I RAN AWAY FROM THE ROOM, FROM THE GATE AND RAN DEEP INTO THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT.   I RAN, RAN, AND GOD KNEW HOW MANY HOURS I RAN.  FINALLY TIRED AND EXHAUSTED, I RESTED UNDER A SHADY TREE.

I FELT A HAND ON MY SHOULDER AND STARTLED TO SEE MY ARTHIT STANDING NEXT TO ME.  HE HAD AN CELESTIAL AURA SURROUNDING HIM, OR WAS IT MY IMAGINATION.  HE LEANED FORWARD AND KISSED MY FOREHEAD, NOSE, CHEEKS AND THEN MY LIPS.  HE KISSED GENTLY ON MY LIPS.  I FELT A KIND OF SERENITY  IN HIS ARMS. HE EMBRACED ME AND BIT MY EAR.  MY ARTHIT THANKED ME FOR PROTECTING MY BODY, SOUL AND MIND FROM THAT DARK FIGURE, BECAUSE I AM WAS HIS POSSESSION WHICH HE WOULD CLAIM AFTER I AM GROWN INTO A MAN.  

ARTHIT SAID"KONG, I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, BUT YOU ARE TOO YOUNG FOR THIS.   YET  YOU ARE MY MINE AND IN FUTURE DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO MESS WITH YOU.  YOU ARE MY CLAIM AND I WOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE INCLUDING YOU TO DEMEAN IT.  

KONG RUN AWAY FROM THIS GRUESOME WORLD, RUN AWAY FROM THIS AGONY, RUN AWAY FROM THIS DARKNESS, SEEK LIGHT.  MEET ME AFTER COMPLETING TWO YEARS OF YOUR HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOL, JOIN ONE OF THE BEST ENGINEERING COLLEGE IN BANGKOK, STUDY HARD, WORK HARD ON YOU PHYSIQUE AND THEN COME TO CLAIM ME, TO MAKE ME YOURS.  I WILL BE WAITING FOR YOU.  I WANT A STRONG WILLED, STURDY AND FLIRTY KONG.  I MAY NOT REMEMBER YOU, EVEN NOW I DO NOT THINK ABOUT YOU, BUT YOU WITH YOUR LOVE AND STRONG DETERMINATION SHOULD CLAIM AND REACH YOUR ARTHIT.   UNTIL THEN DO NOT THINK ABOUT ME IN ANYWAY.  THESE TWO YEARS YOU SPEND YOUR TIME, WORK AND LIVE FOR YOURSELF.

When I opened my eyes there was no Arthit, except the silence of the surrounding and the chirping of the birds sitting on that tree.  I would definitely  claim you my Arthit.  I love you too.  And That was the last time I saw Arthit or imagined him.  Then on, I did not crave for his body, soul and  mind.
