H4: PART 7 END (ENGLISH)

The door to the room closed with a loud bang, leaving the newlyweds looking at each other in a room full of rose petals.

Nat's screams, already inside his own room, could still be heard faintly.

- "I never thought your brother was so obsessed with me" - Kong mumbled as he ran a hand through his hair - "or that it was him the one that was sending me all those gifts".

Arthit sighed, remembering the young man's words.

- "We've never gotten along well but ..." - he mused as he looked at the ground - "I never expected this, he seems to hate us".

He does not care about Kristal...
If she is fine or if she needs something now that she is out there alone...

"And as for me ... it would be better not to even think about it," he told himself as he remembered Nat's eyes fixed on him, full of hatred.

- "Do not worry ... now you have me. I am your husband ... you are not alone" - Kong said as he took off his jacket and placed it on one of the chairs.

Arthit smiled slightly.

"He has not changed at all," he said to himself as he remembered that playful boy who always followed him everywhere. Even when Kong was five years old while he was seven. A child who was now a man and his husband.

Yes.

His husband...

"What now...?", Arthit asked himself as he looked at the white and gold bed.

- "We do not have to do anything if you're not comfortable" - said Kongpob after noticing the look of Arthit and while sitting on the bedspread - "I know that, until a few hours ago, I was going to marry someone else and you were engaged "

Kong's words were like a pitcher of cold water thrown at his face.

And it was true.

He was engaged ... with Nam.

With a young woman who, since childhood, had dreamed of being his wife.

"I hope she can forgive me ... and find someone better, someone that does not make her suffer like me."

Arthit sighed, observing the serious face of the person that was now his husband.

- "Nam ... does not deserve this" - he finally muttered with a thin voice.

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

Kongpob looked down at the floor.

- "Do you love her?"

Arthit, however, immediately shook his head.

- "She's my best friend ... my sister"

- "I understand you perfectly ..." - Kong said while Nat's face, tearful and with a desolate expression, passed in front of his eyes - "I do not want to hurt your brother either ... but I can not love him as he wishes. To marry Nat when I can only see him as a little brother would be crazy..."

Arthit, with a frown, looked at him without saying anything.

- "Maybe everything that has happened is the best for everyone ..." - continued Kongpob as he got up and approached the young man who, with a surprised expression, was watching him from the other side of the room.

Arthit, looking down, could only nod as he looked at the floor partially covered by the rose petals.

Yes..

In the end, this may be the best for them but ... What about us?

- "And now ... Should we start with our wedding night?" - Kong asked causing Arthit to raise his face sharply.
