Semper Fidelis

15. Reunited

"P'Beammm!" a boy's voice echoed when the shout break the silence inside the cafe.

Forth and Ming gaped at Thad in confusion when the boy suddenly shouted.

The pale guy who was busy with his phone earlier abruptly turned towards Forth's table and stared at the boy.

The other guy who entered the cafe abruptly turned towards the boy's voice and gasped loudly.

Everyone seemed to be frozen on their places except for the boy who hurriedly stand up from his chair and ran towards the door where the newcomer is standing while gaping in disbelief.

The boy is already halfway when the guy seemed to have awakened from his shock and instantly opened his two arms to catch the running boy.

Too much emotions are flooding his veins, together with the impact of the boy's frail body on his.

"P'Beam..." the boy whimpered like he was in pain while he was enveloped inside the tight embrace and the boy's eyes are streaming with unstopable tears.

"Thad..." the guy found his voice and hoarsely called the boy's name.

"P'Beam you are back...you are back..." the boy whispered with his sobbing voice.

The two continued to hug each other tightly while Forth gaped in disbelief at the scene in front of him together with the pale guy at the other table.

Ming on the other hand is watching the scene with confusion as he alternately turned to look at Forth, the pale guy and the two hugging figures at the door.

"P'Beam..." Thad kept on mumbling Beams name while Beam continued to hug the boy tightly in his arms with tears in his eyes.

"Thad...baby, you are here..." Beam mumbled softly while he cupped Thads face and tenderly stared at it. His face is in disbelief while staring at the face of the boy he longed to see for a long time.

"You grew up so fast, you are so tall now" Beam continued to talk in awe while he caressed the boys cheeks.

"I waited P'Beam...papa and me waited for you" Thad said with his quivering voice.

"I know baby... I know you will. Thank you for waiting for me little man, I missed you so much...P'Beam is here now...I came back baby" Beam smiled lovingly and wiped the boy's wet cheeks while his eyes are blurred of the tears that are about to fall.

"Im so happy P'Beam...you are here now" Thad sniffed while he continued to cry.

"Im so happy too Thad, I always yearned to see you and papa. I havent expected to see you here" Beam whispered in disbelief but with his tender smile.

Thad gaped at Beam while his eyes are like a waterfall of tears.

"You have worked hard already P'Beam?" Thad asked curiously with his quivering voice.

"Yes I have worked hard baby...for you and papa" Beam smiled warmly while he kept on wiping Thads eyes.

"You will not leave again? We will be together again P'Beam?" Thad worriedly asked while looking at Beam pleadingly.
