The days passed and the weeks began to make room for the months.

Arthit had started a therapy that was finally letting him leave behind what happened with Toptap.

And, undoubtedly, one of the reasons that had allowed him to go so far had been the support of his family and Kongpob.

Yes.

The support of his Kong.




FLASHBACK ...


The cafe was as busy as that rainy day from several months ago.

"Where can they be?" Arthit asked himself as he slid his gaze around the different tables.

- "Mr. Rojnapat?" - asked one of the waiters while approaching him hurriedly from the other side of the room.

Arthit nodded.

- "Please, follow me ..." - continued the young man with a broad welcoming smile - "the others are waiting for you in the private room".

The young man, taking off his raincoat, began to follow the waiter as he watched the establishment.

"It has not changed at all ...", he thought as he let out a sigh.

At first, Arthit had refused to go to that place.

- "Why does it have to be in that cafe?!" - he had asked his father with a gesture of displeasure.

Through his mind passed images of that day and, especially, the bad moment he passed between those four walls

"Only my father could think of making an appointment with Kong's family in the same place where I was jilt...".

- "Son ... I am very sorry but it seems that Kongpob likes that cafeteria and has expressly requested for the meeting to be there and ... the truth ... I have not dared to say no. Not after everything that has happened... "

Arthit sighed.

He could not blame his father for wanting to fulfill Kong's request. 

After all, they owed him a lot.

- "Ok" - he finally muttered with a  thin voice as he looked back to the dough he had been preparing in the kitchen of his little shop - "but remember that I will arrive a little later ... I have to deliver two orders that same day".

His father sighed and, after nodding, turned to the door that led to the store.

A few seconds later, he was gone.

--------------------------

"And here I am again ...", Arthit told himself as he knocked on the door that the waiter was indicating, "I just hope this time it won't end as badly as it did before..."

- "Arthit!" - exclaimed his father and Baek as soon as the door of the private room opened.

However, the young man's eyes were on the boy who, sitting in one of the armchairs, was staring at him.

"Kongpob ..."

- "Come, sit here ..." - said Mr. Suttiluk as he approached and, with a wide smile, accompanied him to an empty seat next to his son.

Arthit nodded, his cheeks flushed and a timid expression on his face.

- "Hello, Kongpob ..." - he whispered with a  shy voice and without daring to look at the face of the young man who he had been lying all this time - "I'm glad you're fully recovered."

Kong smiled.

- "The same, Arthit" - he muttered as he leaned over trying to see the young man's face, especially his deep black eyes - "I'm sorry I could not go to the hospital but ... let's say I was retained ..."

Arthit raised his face to look at him questioningly.

- "Retained?"

The young man nodded as he made a small gesture with his head towards his parents, who were sitting in front of them and talking animatedly with Arthit's father and brother.

- "I was forbidden to go to see you ... orders from the doctors" - the young man answered with a slight exasperated tone - "apparently seeing us could aggravate your condition ... or something like that... and my parents took it as a must do. They even lock me up at home!"

"My condition ..." Arthit thought as he sighed, "that's why he did not come to see me ... and here  I was, thinking that he hated me".

- "I would have liked to see you ... apologize for the lie" - Arthit muttered as he looked down at his lap.

Kongpob smiled and, taking one of Arthit's hands between his, bowed until he was only inches from his ear.

- "And I would had liked to be with you all those days ... I have missed you so much"

Arthit looked at the young man with surprise.

"Is it possible ...?" He asked himself as he felt hope begin to take its toll on him, "Is it possible that Kong is still interested in me?!"
