BROTHERHOOD AND CONFESSIONS

Again updating 2 chapters clubbed in one so this is pretty long. Enjoy!❤️

New Thitipoom

Hiding the truth from Tay had already given me a thousand deaths in the last few days but seeing him actually finding out how I had backstabbed him, made me die a thousand more at that instant.

Tay......

My closest friend......or it could have been my future boyfriend....or even a best friend for life.......

All those vanished in thin air as I saw him collapse on the floor with his trembling hands clutching those wretched papers.

I couldn't cry, I couldn't rush to him because he would definitely shove me away, I couldn't claim ignorance as the papers came out of my bag...........I couldn't do any of those things that a friend should do because I had done something which a true friend would never do.

I had imagined this moment a trillion times in the last few days but when it actually happened all those imaginations failed me...

"I am not a Ratanawadi..........I am not a Ratanawadi............I am an orphan....."

He was crouched with his head between his knees and arms arms wrapped around them, rocking back and forth whispering the same line over and over again.......I am not a Ratanawadi.......I am an orphan.......

The shock on his face when he saw the papers was enough to make me want to crawl somewhere beneath the earth....I was expecting him to accuse me.....punch me....or even ask me to never show my face again but he didn't even look at me.

The shame and guilt weighed heavily on my shoulders as I remained frozen on the spot and saw my closest friend completely breakdown.......

Finally after what seemed like ages he looked at me. He managed to stand up but his legs were wobbly.

"How long have you known?" His voice sounded strained.....distant.

"It's been a while........" I couldn't even look at him.....the guilt of hurting him wouldn't let me.

"I trusted you Dr.Thitipoom......I guess I really have a knack of trusting all the wrong people in my life......"

Before I could reply he was gone.....just like that....in a flash....my life became empty. I slumped on the floor and curled myself in a foetal position wanting to just die.

He had just addressed me as Dr.Thitipoom. His voice sounded cold and his stare gave me chills. There was no anger or hurt in his eyes...........but what I saw was disappointment. I had let him down........and there was no way to earn back that trust........

God.....please help me............please................God......help me.....

I felt the tears roll down my eyes and I tried to wipe them away but the more I tried the harder it became. My whole body started shivering as I collapsed and let myself cry. I had controlled those tears for far too long.........I had always known that this day would come and yet I was unprepared.....

Today I had officially become the backstabbing friend of Mr.Tay Tawan Ratanawadi.......sorry.....Mr.Tay Tawan Vihokaratna.....

It felt like hours...or maybe not as I remained on the floor. I could hear my phone buzzing in my pocket but I was in no mood to talk to anyone.

But the buzzing remained persistent so finally I pulled out the damn phone and saw Mae's number flash. I took the call.

"Sawadee Kha Mae"
