Forgot to say it on the other chapters but Maripha is Maprang's real name. Besides one thing to clear some misunderstanding, Jun broke up with Singto and not the way around. Enjoy the new updated chapter :)

The song is Adult by Sondia (My Mister OST)

******************************

Someone ran aimlessly on the street, panting heavily while trying to catch his breath since his lungs complained for lack of oxygen. Dim light coming from nowhere gave him light to clear his dark path. He was running for a long time now, yet he didn't knew his destination. He just sensed that he had to continue taking the direction ahead. Apparantly, he got this strange and overwhelming feeling that someone was waiting somewhere for him. Someone so important that he shouldn't miss him. He looked around, only darkness and emptiness were surrounding him. There was a person standing not far away from him whereupon he slowed down till he came to a halt a few distance away from the person. The silhouette of the person revealed that it was a tall man. That back! It was his back, it could only be him!

„...P'Jun?", Krist hesitated before speaking, calling his name so gently through the many pantings.

The man waited a moment before turning behind to face him. Krist's eyes widened in shock, he gasped when he recognized the person not to be his P'Jun but Prachaya Ruangroj. What is he doing here? Where is P'Jun? Krist was desperate and confused, he opened his mouth to say something but he closed them as he heard two loud bangs. Another man wearing a black hoodie was standing behind Singto, pointing his gun at the latter. He just shot two bullets out of his weapon. Krist jumped back, he saw red fluid dropping out of Singto's mouth. The fluid came out of his chest and out of a hole in his forehead too, it had a red colour. Krist gasped in shock as he recognized the red colour. Blood! Singto was bleeding heavily but he went ahead to Krist.

The shorter one stepped back, „...Stop... don't come closer to me!", he yelled at the horrific picture in front of him. It was too scary. That hitman just killed his new bodyguard.

Krist bumped his back against's someone's chest. He froze on the spot first but turned to look at the person behind him. Another man was behind him! He panicked and fell on his butt as he recognized P'Jun standing in front of him, bleeding out of the hole on his chest. The latter reached his hand out to Krist, blood dripped out the wound on his shoulder and fell on Krist's face. Krist trembled heavily, shaking his head in denial. He refused to look at the frightened pictures those two bodyguards were giving him. Singto arrived behind him, stretching his arm to him, his blood falling onto the young boss's face too. Krist was between them, more like trapped between the two men who died painfully while protecting him. The dim light was now projected on the three of them. Krist could see their wounds clearlier.

„Why you killed us?", P'Jun asked. „I did everything for you and this is how you thanked me?", it seemed like his former bodyguard blamed him for his death.

„You killed us! Look at what you had done to us!", Singto yelled at him, his face so close to Krist that their nose almost brushed against each other.

Both bodyguards were too close to him, their eyes staring holes into the younger man's eyes. Krist cried, rubbing his hands together while begging for their forgiveness.

„I'm sorry... I'm sorry...", the sleeping Krist mumbled in his bed, turning his head many times around. He shrieked while waking up from the nightmare. He panted heavily, clenching onto his chest to calm down his restless heart.

Krist looked around before noticing that he was in his bedroom, it was still nighttime. It was a nightmare. Or should it be called a warning instead? A warning that the same fate would fall upon Prachaya Ruangroj? Krist often dreamed about P'Jun getting shot every night but it was the first time he saw Mr. Ruangroj being killed in his dream too. He was trembling, bending up his legs and hugging himself. He just didn't want another bodyguard to die because of him. Jun's death hit him so hard that he didn't recover from the loss yet even though a year passed by now. If he had to lose another bodyguard then he wouldn't survive it this time. Because he wanted to prevent another innocent man to become his human shield, did he reject his father's offer to get more guards for him. His father wouldn't listen to him. Why can't they understand me? Why wouldn't they let him be like I am. I'm fine by myself. He said that he was fine but he knew very well that he lied. He wasn't fine by himself at all since he was still scared.
