The Seed

Elder's Wisdom

KING'S POV

After the talk with Ai'Ning and the ruckus that we had last night courtesy of my lovely sister, I decided to ask Ai'Ning to go at my grandma's place to freshen up and have some rest first.

He told me before he left last that I had to stay here for 2 days more to finish some tests before I get discharged by the doctor. That was totally fine with me as I know I'm totally ok now. My wounds are healing up already and the only thing that I have to worry about was the cast that they placed on my left leg which will restrain my movements a bit for a month.

But that's totally fine, I feel like I can deal with anything right now as long as I have Ai'Ning with me. I really can't believe that we're lovers now.

Everything still feels surreal at the moment but remembering the heartfelt talk and confession that we had last night, I know that this is the real deal already.

I can't believe that we almost had the same level of feelings for each other and we're just stupid enough to not talk about it. Grandma and P'Kumfah were right when they said that we really have to talk about things first. That's what we've been missing out on all along and now that we've finally done it, all of the questions that has been bothering us have been resolved.

Though I had to get hurt first and be in this condition before the confession happened, that's still totally fine with me. I'm just glad that we're able to sort things out already.

I was sitting on the hospital bed with my back leaning on the wall when I remembered the kiss that we also had yesterday. I cant help but touch my lips as I rembered the entire scene once more.

Did I like it? Well I'd be dead if I say that I didn't. In fact, saying that I like it would be an understatement. I actually love it to the point that I wanted more. Ram's kisses are quite addicting and I won't even explain as to why I thought of it that way. It's just really how I felt it.

I would've gotten more if not for my sister who just came barging in and ruining the moment that we had. After witnessing our kiss, P'Kumfah just stayed there inside the room. She was sitting at the sofa pretending that she's not looking at us but Ai'Ning and I can clearly feel the curious gaze that she's been giving us.

It also didn't help that she's been asking 'Are you guys not gonma kiss already?' every once in a while. We got all concious of her prescence that all I was able to do with Ai'Ning was hold hands with him as I lie on the bed while he rubs soothing circles at the back of my hand.

Since I know I'm not gonna get any more kisses from Ai'Ning and seeing how tired he was as well, I just asked him to rest at my grandma's place first.

I was waiting for him to come back this morning while I'm still reminiscing about the things that happened last night when I heard the door open. I looked towards it and saw my sister coming carrying a small paper bag which I think contains food in it.

A hint of disappointment might've shown on my face because I was expecting that it was Ai'Ning and it didn't escape my sister's keen senses.

"Oh? You don't seem too happy to see me nong." P'Kumfah said.

"It's not like that phi. I just thought that it was Ai'Ning already. I guess he's not here yet." I replied to her.

"I was just teasing you little brother. I know that you miss him already. I can see that on your face. You guys really love each other. I can see that last night." She said.

I can't help but blush at her remark. It was actually true. I do miss Ai'Ning already and it was weird because I just saw him last night. I guess that's how someone is when they're in love. I can't help but smile at the thought. I snapped out of my daydreaming when I heard the door being open again and I saw the person that I've been waiting to see.
