The unseen love

Chapter XIV -> Please be alright,

Kongpob Pov

I had searched frantically throughout the city, checking the campus, auditorium several bridges he often went to, his favorite spots, restaurants etc. but I hadn't found him. I had started to panic, what if I wouldn't be able to find him? Or what if he had committed suicide, only the thought of it felt as if I was stabbed in my heart. I had called the private security officers of my fathers company to help me, distributing to them the picture we took last time. I smiled when I thought of the moment, he shyly had asked if I would like a picture which, honestly, amazed me. Why would he being blind care about that but then it dawned he wasn't thinking for himself but for me. He was too kind, and I ruined it.

I was in a terrible state, drenched in water, shaking from the coldness of the night but I didn't care, before I found him I wouldn't relent. There was one spot left that I knew he sometimes went for that I hadn't checked, it was in a faraway district, near to an old concrete warhouse. I neared a small bridge and went to look underneath it but what I saw there nearly gave me a heart attack. He was laying these in a pool of blood, with a knife sticking out of his chest. ARTHIT!!!, I shook his head but no response came. He still breathed but it was very faint, but yet he still lived.

He was rushed to the hospital and immediately went into surgery.

Doctor we need to get him some blood. his pressure gets too low, the operation cannot go on now or we will kill him.
We don't have his type.
Isn't there someone we can ask, the heart monitor is slowing rapidly. We must do something fast or we will lose him on the table.
I'll go and check.
By the time the doctor returned Arthit was on the verge of a coma, we need to put it in now and rapidly before he dies.. speed it up, faster. The heart monitor gave a loud continuous beep. In 3 seconds hands off, 1,2,3 the body shocked and jerked when the electronic pulse went through, again 1,2,3 and again. We try one more time, if it fails again we inform the family he died.

While I was restlessly walking circles inside the waiting chamber the doctor came in, we need blood or we'll lose him can we check your group? It matched, he said the amount they needed was large but that it didn't matter as long as I didn't get ill or something but I needed to sign a form. I just signed, even if I had to die to save him it would be good. He deserved to live and all this was my fault. But I wasn't feeling well. When the doctor came back to tell me Arthit would make it and that his i jury was only a felsh wound that would have him discharged in a few days I was laying on the floor, unconscious. All the pain, fear and the cold I caught had become to much, I had a severe case if pneumonia combined with symptoms of severe blood loss due to the transfusion.

When I woke up again I felt a pain inside my chest. What happened, where was I? Where was Kongpob?
Are you alright sir? Someone, I presumed to be a doctor, came in. Awake it seems but how did I get here? A boy brought you in and saved your life by giving a massive blood transfusion, your were hit with a knife in your chest and only narrowly made it, we nearly lost you during the operation. I shook my head in daze until I remembered the pain I had felt in my chest. Kongpob!! Where is he?
In the adjacent room but he is in a coma.

Why did this have to happen, why had I been so stubborn not telling him? My tears flowed, dripping on his hand, I didn't mind, he had sacrificed himself for me in his last attempt to save me. I was stupid I hadn't entrusted to him my problem when he asked so many times if he could help. But now it was toolate. What would I do now? We had really become very close these weeks we had been roommates and the thought of losing him made me feel numb but the doctor said he would be alright as soon as the blood arrived. I wasn't allowed to give him, we can't have you give him which might get you in coma when he gets out. We would be transporting the problem instead of solving it.

So there I sat, he had gotten extra blood but didn't wake up. I stayed at his bed as much and long as i could. Grandma had visited but I hadn't told her the truth instead I told her we had an accident, she shouldn't be worrying too much that would be bad for her health.

After 2 days I was still sitting on the bedside against the advice the doctor but I wouldn't budge? Are yiu his boyfriend they had asked? His best friend. As long as we didn't know ourselves what we were I shouldn't jump to a conclusion. I was holding Kongpobs hand in mine when I suddenly felt a soft squeeze, my heart jumped from happiness was he waking up?. Kongpob are you awake? Again a soft squeeze and his eyes fluttered faintly I didn't know what to do or say to describes the feeling I felt but I could jump through the roof of happiness and pure joy. He wouldn't die, he would be alright. The countless prayers had been heard and fulfilled. Without thinking I pecked his cheeks and pushed my forehead against his' in silence until I suddenly felt his hand on my shoulder. P'Arthit. His voice was hoarse but he was awake. After the doctor had come, who had ensured he would be fine in a day or 2 and could leave tomorrow if everything remained well, we were left together. We both had a lot of talking to do but when we both wanted to speak we just uttered the same words, I am sorry, the rest we would talk of later but I had promised him to tell him everything when we would be at home. For now we were just enjoying the other's company which led me to think of another thing we would have to discuss, for me it felt we had become a little too close for just being friends. Not that I minded his peck on my cheek that night or he seemed to mind mines today, or his care, attentiveness, spoiling, help, comforting and soothing but if we liked each other we should date instead of fooling ourselves to be "just very good friends"(bromance) And if I was honest with myself I had to admit that it was possible or even very likely I liked him. Problem was I never had any experience with love before.

After I had given blood everything had slowly turned dark until I heard someone crying. It was P'arthit. I tried to move or talk but I couldn't, whatever I tried I just couldn't move. Once more I fell back into the darkness underneath me but the next time I managed to crawl out of it I could move, I felt him holding his hand and squeezed it, his reaction struck me, I was surprised at what he did, but it strengthened my resolve to, at one point, lay my cards on the table. I had decided to tell him I liked him and had done so for the first moment I had seen him. I had been afraid how he would react but somehow I felt that I was troubling myself for nothing.

A.N.

I am a notorious hater of the
i like you,
but i am in denial
Or
I like you but sadly my mind hasn't realized it yet,
stories
so that won't be in here very much or at all. There are other things that can provide enough drama.

Character talk comment please if you like it or not, if yes I'll do it more often. If not I won't🤪

Arthit: grumble, can't this author do anything except ruining my life. Look we even had a fight and i nearly DIED.

Kongpob: don't be such a dramaqueen and don't throw a fit, it's a happy ending, it will end well

Arthit: just don't see how. Is he gonna let us ressurect after death or something? I barely survived an assault by bright and you have collapsed from the transfusion, now that really points to a happy ending, this stupid author of us.

Author: well Arthit if you'd rather die the next chapter is still in draft for some editing so if you want.......

Arthit: YYIIKKESSSS, Kongpob!!!!, (arthit jumping in Kongpobs lap)

Kongpob: calm down sweetheart, the next chapter will be better at least according to the script. You should have some patience with our author, its the first time he has written anything aside from office memos and school exam answers plus he is young, be kind to him and you'll soon get your sugared pink milk.

Arthit: (mumbling) grumble, hmpf, we'll see.

Kongpob: we might even get a kiss or peck on the lips (wink wink)

Arthit: (blushing) i hope so(very softly)

Arthit: already in the 15th chapter? Wow thats fast indeed,

Author: ahem guys, still here,

Arthit: allright, allright, it might be a bit better than I let on. BUT IT'S STILL MUCH TOO DARK FOR MY romantic heart.

Kongpob and author: HAHAHA
