Let The Time Decide

Maybe even Fate!!!

Singto POV

I felt a little nervous today because I had a schedule for violin lesson...
In my whole life, musical instruments were not my friends.. , I couldn't manage to learn playing any of them.,
Not that I tried., I just couldn't... I even had problems in noticing where to start singing my parts and how to reach high and low notes in songs...
But now I must do that.. VIOLIN!!!!

I got a role in a drama as a good cook and also a violin player!!! I couldn't even cook an edible omelette because I was afraid to dead about oil-splitter..
Okay, that would be another thing to worry for another day...

I will just deal with Violin today... It would be the best if I could really play.. but even if I couldn't , I shouldn't act too awkward with the violin in my hands... Right???..
So, I decided to take this one by one lesson from a Violin teacher..
I thought that maybe 5 sessions would be enough... or maybe not...
I breathed out a sigh and entered into the music class...
..
..
To my surprise , Katherine was there , softly playing violin while stting on a chair and showing me her side profile..,
The melody was a sad one and she was playing softly with the closed eyes....
I checked my ph for the details of today's appointment.. I was on time for the appointment ,place was correct and definitely my instructor's name was not Katherine....
Then, I thought I might enter into a wrong room... As I turned my back and headed to go out from that room, the melody was stopped and heard her voice...
"Hello...!!!"

I looked back and greeted her..
"Sawadee.. Kath.. Umm... I am here for a session with Khun Neerin.. Sorry, I might enter the wrong room.."

Kath seemed surprised too..
"Oh.. Then , you are the one.. !!!
No, P'Singto.. , this is the right place and
I am sorry to inform you that P'Nee is not feeling well today.. She asked me for a favor to take this session in her place... "

She dropped the violin on its box and walked toward me...
"Come and sit down... I didn't know it was you... welcome P'Singto.. I may not be as good as P'Nee but she said you just want to be familiar with violin.. So, I think I can help you about that... She knew you are too busy , so she doesn't want to cancel the session and rearrange.... Again , I'm sorry.. in behead of her..."

I was confused and losing words for some seconds.. then, I gave out a smile and replied
"Oh... nevermind.. I can see that you played really well..
The drama shooting date was already scheduled and I couldn't rearrange the sessions too... And it is better to learn from an already familiar person.. I have zero knowledge on that instrument and also have limited time.. please help me not too awkward on screen with Violin.." while pointing the violin behind her...

She gave out a smile and started to explain about violin...

She was good at explaining things...
she told me about the structure of violina and the bow.. about the chalk like thing , she called it "Rosin" and how to apply it to the bow...
how to make sounds from the 4 strings.. separately !!! This was a real problem.. I couldn't separately play on the 2nd and 3rd string... They seemed at the nearly same level though...

(that was the main problem I had when I started learning violin.. :-D )

Seriously there was no bars on violin neck like on guitar.. then how can I know where should I place my fingers?? Umm....???

An hour and a half session ended too quickly... My neck and finger tips were sore.. but at least I felt like I was familiar with violin... " Ok... I still have 4 other sessions... I can do it..."

Kath stored the violin in the box and prepared to leave the room too.. So, I waited her to walk out together...
I offered her a ride and she accepted with a Thank you.. She was going back to the hospital.... During the ride, we mostly stayed in our comfortable silence..

After a while, Kath started the conversation with a question " How is Krist doing during these days.. He didn't update anything for awhile now.. "

I laughed out softly while thinking about her question..
" Oh.. Kit.. He is doing fine.. Just busy with his baby Pluto.. He was possessed by Nong Pluto recently and nearly forgot about his phone and social media... I couldn't even reach him these days.. Kit called me only to ask about Cat... He was like a newly dad possessed by his baby... "

Kath showed a wide smile and a soft chuckle.. " Glad he is happy and enjoying his days well..."

Then I asked her about how long she had become a Yuyu.. , how she started to know Krist.. Those random questions and answers carried our conversation...

When we reached her hospital, Kath thanked me and headed in with waving her hand toward the closed car door...

But her words still lingered in my thoughts...
" I love him because he is Krist Perawat.. I know his flaws , his craziness and everything.. I also know his talents and skills.. But what really matter is him and himself... I decided to support him as long as I can.. "

"I have received really a lot from him.. There was a time I was really depressed and stressed out.. I was alone at a place far away from home and family.. At that time, the only thing that could make me smile was his smile... He is always spreading out his positive energy either with words or smiles or songs... You would know better about him than me P'Singto..."

"As we can be proud about him.., I want him to be able to proud about us,Yuyu too.. , I wanted to try hard for him.. let say like this.. I got another reason to try hard in my everyday life... That's good , right??"

She made me amazed with those answers...
and confused me with following ones..

"Pardon me but Is there really no time you felt annoyed from Krist behaviour??
According to your character , u would easily annoyed by someone like Krist... Isn't it???"

I answered with a simple " No, never.."

But now I was thinking back about everything , I should be annoyed by someone like Krist... Still I am so sure I was never been annoyed by him..
Because he is Krist... Right??
It was right I couldn't understand him all the time but I haven't done or said anything other than ,calling "Kit Kit.. " or , shaking my heads or , just pretended to walk out from him..
I have never really felt angry toward him...

In the end I agreed with Kath's comment...
" well.., Who can really stay mad at that turtle for a long time..??? I think.. No one.."

Yes.., No one
I couldn't too...
Suddenly I missed him and sent out " What are you doing ??" text

He didn't reply...

So, I sent again " Call me when you see this !!"

I was the one who got to spend time with him the most.. So, I knew Kath was true.. Krist made me smile and laugh a lot during these years...
I mentally noted another reason to thank him...
