17. THE MOWU'S (ENGLISH VERSION)

CHAPTER 4

Arthit woke up earlier than Kongpop.  He felt strange in this room but immediately he realized this was not his home.  Especially not his room.  This is Kongpop room.

Last night when he persuaded Kongpop to marry him, it suddenly started raining and getting heavy and harder.  The conversation stopped, they ran to Kongpop house.

Kongpop said that Arthit stay at his house that night, the reason Kongpop was lazy to take Arthit home, after all it was late at night.

Arthit sighed, his chest tightness felt heavy.  He doesn't know why Kongpop still hasn't agreed to marry him.  He had humbled himself before Kongpop but was still rejected by Kongpop.

What should I do now?

How if I take a replaced my dad to receive punishment?

Maybe it's better that way?

Arthit felt it was the right solution, this was the problem his was causing.  So he must bear the punishment not Dad.

Arthit woke up and went to take a shower.  After shower, he will report to the legal entity organization Mowu.  Ask for leniency so that he can replace his father.

Arthit took a long bath, regulating his mind and mental readiness.  Being a slave is not a cheap trivial matter.  Where you have to be willing to be trampled or even become food bait for insects.

Mowu who have no power like human beasts, like ants against elephants.  The difference is really big.

Arthit after drying the body and wearing his pajamas back.  He wants to borrow another set of clean clothes from Kongpop.  His clothes from yesterday were still wet.

Arthit opened Kongpop wardrobe without permission.  Kongpop is still sleeping, he doesn't want to bother him.  Later he will leave a note for Kongpop.

"Where are you going?"  Arthit was surprised to hear Kongpop voice.  It looks like Kongpop is awake.

"Want to go home. Er ... Kong, I borrowed your shirt. I'll return it after washing."

"Okay."  Kongpop gets up to get a towel.  "Wait for me to finish shower, I'll take you home."

"N-no need Kong. I can go home alone."  If Kongpop joins, he cannot go to the Mowu legal entity organization.

Kongpop looked dislike at Arthit.  "Didn't you say that you would obey me yesterday?"

"H-huh? What?"

"Does your promise only stand last night?"  Arthit shook his head.

"Then why don't you obey me?"

"You mean?"

"I'll take you home. Don't argue it. Sit quietly and wait for me. We have breakfast first and then leave. Do you understand?"  Arthit nodded.  Kongpop was satisfied and turned around.

"W-wait, Kong ..."

"What?"

"Are you accept me?"  Arthit asked doubtfully.

"Yes. As long as you obey me."

"So ... so ... my dad don't need to be punished?"  There is a worried tone in Arthit question.

"It depends on your behavior."

"Fine. Fine. I'll obey you."  Arthit was happy, his father would not be punished.

"You can't break your promise Kong..." Kongpop nodded.

"You done? Or do you have more to say? I want to take a shower."

"No ... no ... please take a shower. Let you be fresh. And ..." Arthit added praise so that Kongpop would happy.  "Let you be more handsome."

In Kongpop heart it felt funny, his wild cat was now too obedient.

"Then ..." Kongpop walked closer until there was only a small distance between them.  Kongpop said while winking.  "What if you bathe me?"

Arthit was surprised, his face turned red.  Either because of anger or because of shame.  His heart also beats a little rhythmically.

"Y-You! You take a bath yourself! I will help uncle prepare breakfast."  Arthit ran a thousand steps.  Kongpop giggled to see his cat run away with his face flushed.

***

Mike was surprised when he opened the door to see Arthit and Kongpop.  Arthit is what makes all the people at home worried because he didn't come home all night.

Mike invited them in.  And sit together with the guests.  Discuss what happened yesterday.

"So ... you mean you are willing to marry Arthit?"  Ask Mike to confirm.  Yesterday the big rejection scene still printed in his heart, especially in Kongpop heart.

"Yes, Uncle Mike. We're getting married."

"Then Arthit agrees?"

"I agree, Dad. Agree."  Arthit answered excitedly making Zon and A-Xian confused by Arthit sudden change of attitude.

"Seriously?"

"I'm seriously dad."  Arthit put his arm around Kongpop arm.  "Look, we're lovey-dovey."

Papa, Zon and A-Xian stared in turns, a little strange with Arthit attitude.

"Then when will you get married?"  Asked Mike.

Kongpop glanced at Arthit.  One eyebrow raised.  Like 'when do you think?'

"Er ..." Arthit glanced back at Kongpop.  "Up to Kong."  Arthit looked down embarrassed.

"How about Kong?"

"It's up to Uncle Mike and Daddy. You both can arrange it, I accept whatever you arrange."

"All right. I'll talk to Jin."   said dad happily.  Finally one problem in his heart had broken.  Mike went to call General Jin.

A-Xian jumped to sit beside Kongpop.

"So ... you became my brother-in-law?" Tease A-Xian.

"That's the way it is."

"Aa ~~~~ hh .. I also want to have a partner."  A-Xian pouted spoiled.  "Kong, do you have friends who are handsome and cool like you? Recommend me ... introduce me ..." whined A-Xian.

"A-Xian, your marriage will also be decided by the state."

"I know it Arthit, but I also want to enjoy the good times of courtship. A beautiful youth."

"How rude!"  A-Xian screamed in pain.

"Zon! You don't be jealous if I get a boyfriend."

"Will not!"

A-Xian did not want to lose, he returned to whine to Kongpop.

"Help me find boyfriend Ko ~~ ng ..."

The sound of laughter will whine A-Xian could be heard.

This is how it should be, this is how the family laughter must be maintained.  I will keep the laughter - Arthit promised.
