Chapter 5 - Let Me Help You

A/N - Guess who is a big liar?! ME!! I really thought this chapter was going to be about the beach trip, and wrap up on with the confession, but I have learned that I have very little control over my own mind, so instead we have the chapter below, which is most definitely not the beach trip or confession! 😘

- Kongpob's inner thoughts will be represented as bold italic text.

Flashback (cont...)

What was I just saying about one step forward, and two steps back? I probably should have known what would happen if we took 10 steps forward, but even I didn't think that P'Arthit would somehow turn himself into a master ninja, able to avoid all contact with me for close to a week now.

With the successful ending of the Freshy Games, and the Engineering department taking home all the first-place wins, including Campus Moon AND Star the freshmen thought that the return to their hazing meetings would be a piece of cake. Sure, they were feeling a little cocky, who wouldn't after all, they did win every event, even their upperclassmen had to acknowledge them now, right?

Wrong!! So fucking wrong!!

The freshmen were assembled in the meeting hall quietly watching their hazing team staring them down from the front of the stage. This was the first time Kongpob had seen Arthit since he had run away from him after the competition. He was so happy to be able to see his senior he was completely oblivious to the atmosphere in the room as he happily stared at the man who consumed his thoughts lately.

Prem stepped forward, and aggressive scowl on his face, "I'm sure you all thought when you came to the meeting today that we would be up on stage just waiting to congratulate you on your Freshy Games winnings. Did you honestly think we wouldn't see all the posts on the social media, even on our own school website??" Finally, Kongpob's attention was pulled away, and redirected at the rest of the hazing team, all of which seemed to be scowling at them.

What the hell is going on now? They said to win first place in all events, so we won first place in all events, what are they upset about?

"Did you guys really think that the proper way to celebrate your wins was to go online and start bragging, talking shit about how you showed your seniors up? Claiming that now we wouldn't be able to take advantage of you, wouldn't be able to bully you?!" Arthit had stepped forward, looking more fierce than usual, even for him. "I want everyone to stand up NOW!" he yelled, "This whole time we have been trying to teach you about respect and responsibility, and it seems like you haven't learned a thing. Maybe 100 squats will help remind you of why you are here!"

There was a lot of commotion as the first years stood up, looking around at each other in confusion, sure a few hot heads had gone online and made a couple stupid comments about rubbing their wins in the seniors faces, but for the most part the freshmen had just been excited working together for so many wins! Not to mention they not only had the Campus Moon, but also the Campus Star in their faculty! This punishment seemed unfair.

Kongpob's friends were all looking at him, expecting at any moment for him to jump up and protest the current punishment, but even Kongpob was at a loss for words. This was the first time he was hearing anything about the taunting online, so he really had no idea what was going on, but the look on the seniors faces didn't seem open to any kind of criticism, least of all from him, so he quietly stood to join in the punishment.
