A parallel universe

Bestfriend

They first met on a very hot day in Bangkok, Arthit is 6, Kongpob is 5.
It was the first day of Elementary School, Arthit can not wait to go, Kongpob don't wanna go.
The night before Arthit can hardly sleeps due to excitement of finally being the big boy, wearing uniform and carried a big, black leather, shiny bag
Kongpob also can't sleep, he kept praying and willed tomorrow to never comes. He dislike the idea of unknown place with unknown environment.

Both of them are late on their first day of Elementary School
They met at the Principal office with their mothers profusely apologizing of their tardiness
"Hello, i'm Arthit and you?" Arthit hugged his precious black leather bag and smiles to little boy next to him
"Ko..Kongpob" Kongpob anwers nervously, his hands grips his bag handle so tight
"I'm so excited for school, aren't you?" Arthit still smiling
"No .." Kongpop shook his head
"No??? Why?" Arthit's eyes got bigger
"I don't know anybody here" Kongpop bow his head low
"You know me! Let's be friends!" Arthit shout.

since that day, Where there is Arthit, there is Kongpob

They made it through 6 years of Elementary School always in the same class, always together.

"Really? I did not notice that" Kongpob just shrugs
"And also more handsome by the day. I hate you" Arthit groans
"You think i'm handsome?" Kongpob turn his head to Arthit's
"What is that? You do know you're handsome right?" Now Arthit looks annoyed
"Yeah... but not by you. So you think i'm handsome?" Kongpob still looking at Arthit
