The Traipipatanapong family was nothing but an emotional at the moment. The kids seemed like they will riot against their parents anytime soon. Though the parents too were hurt by thinking of this topic, but they knew much more than their children did.
Though, Tay Traipipatanapong and New traipipatanapong might not be the only married couple having a quarrel tonight.
**************************
There was this one mansion in the other part of the city. It stood gracefully, seemingly a modern design. The entrance of the premises was a large sliding door with a matt finish over the metal it was constructed of. It was simple yet a scenery of immense beauty.
The main building seemed to be connecting all the parts of the property with corridors. The corridors had their roofs decorated with geometric designs and some lights dangling from the top. The corridors also gave the open view of the gardens alongside. The gardens had white roses planted that complemented the light colours that were used in this whole place.
The main building, the one made to reside in. It was a piece of art be described in a phrase, only if you have to. The front-door of this part of the house revealed a huge living area just as it was opened. The furniture was edgy, modern, pretty funky for some yet very elegant. The walls were covered with shelves, some containing murals and others were laden with books and souvenirs from some trips too. Not to forget the wall right in front of the sofa set that was covered with the family members' faces almost full.
Then there was this couple filling the silence and calm with their stupid couple fight. "Gun, I'm telling you, just this wall is enough for every members' picture." the husband sounded as if he was already tired of this topic. It was like he had just had enough of it for the day. "Off! We need to dedicate another wall to it." the wife spoke without looking at his husband. Gun continued saying that "There are future generations to come! how can just one wall be enough. I am dedicating another wall to it. No. Matter. What." now he was stubborn.
"I think the kids have arrived" Off cautioned his lovely Gun as he heard some conversing voices getting louder bit by bit.
"And then the professor made a face like a chimpanzee," the cute girl told her brothers while entering the room and noticing their parents looking their way. "Swadee na~" all three of them took their time as they sensed the childish behaviour of the elders standing before them. The elders were their arents to be exact, though their behaviour was more like teenagers fighting over something. "Hmm. Now go back to your rooms and come back down within fifteen minutes there's something to be discussed tonight." said their papa Gun before he went back to his frowning self. The three siblings complied with it. They could all sense that the air was pretty serious in this living room tonight which was usually filled with giggles.
As the kids started towards the stairs the parents went back to their quarrel, again. "Okay then let's remove the childhood pictures if you want space.' Off said moving closer to the wall but was interrupted by his short wife who yelled this time "NO! We are not taking off the childhood pictures! and we'll also put the new members' childhood pictures!". "Oh? but what for?" Off tried to defend his stand but finally surrendered at his wife's next sentence. Those were the words that hit him right at his soft spot. Yep, this grumpy husband over here was actually a very soft-hearted person. What his wife said was "OF COURSE SO THAT THE NEW PERSON DOESN'T FEEL LEFT OUT IN THE FAMILY!!!! YOU DUMBASS!", well a yell indeed.
Just then their kids unmounted the stairs taking a seat with their Dad and Papa. "Today we have something very important to tell you," Gun said as though a lecture. The kids stole glances at each other before their daddy announced: "Son you are getting married next month". Zee the eldest was in a shock that his parents were telling him to marry next month. Mew and Sammy were already teasing him when Gun realized that these three fools were misunderstanding.
Gun then flicked Off's forehead and explained "Zee, not you but Mew is the groom next month's 19th.". Then he turned to Mew and asked if he was seeing someone recently, to which Mew replied " No I don't... but!". He was cut off in between by his brother who asked their parents " But why do you want to marry this straight man off so suddenly. Are you tired of his straightness?", was it serious or a joke nobody other than Zee himself could know.
"This marriage was already set a long time ago, so now it can't be called off. And I asked Mew because he has to end any other relationship if any." Gun then clarified. "But we give you the decision to make it public or not." Off added to his wife's clarification.
All of them were silent for a while, none of the five people present in the room. Then the eldest and the youngest of the kids made their way to their respective rooms, leaving the middle child, Mew, alone with their Daddy and Papa. They thought it was better to leave as to not interfere in this matter anymore.
Now, there were only three people left in the room and the ice was finally broken by the son. "Okay if you can't cancel it I will comply with it. But..." At first, he just reassured his parents and suddenly seemed to be about to start a debate. "But, could you please tell me who am I getting married to?" The twenty-year-old completed asked his query followed y a sigh of relief from his parents. They had thought that their lovingly annoying son would create a ruckus, but he happened to agree with their arrangement.
Though the unhappiness and rage were clear on Mew's face. He had never liked to be told what to do and what not to.
MEW POV...
I really didn't like what Daddy and Papa just declared. If they feel like making decisions for me, they could at least ask for y opinion. But they forbid me fro even trying to go against it. Now then, I have no other choice but to go with it. And I just wanted to know my bride's name so I asked them.
"That is a secret, and don't worry he is a well-mannered and cute child," Off said making his way to his bedroom. "You are getting married next 19th. Just remember this much rest is not necessary for you to know" were the last words dad said and then left.
"But!!!" I tried to take out some information but papa cut in between.
"No buts. Everything is already set, now we just have to wait for the final day." Papa Gun was being so hard to get through today. They just left me in the living room alone. I could think of nothing else but to call Sing out for a drink.
Sing is the only one who listens to all of my shit attentively.
When I called him he seemed rushed, maybe I just ruined his time with Krist. Then he started the conversation.
[THE CALL]
Singto: *politely* What is it?
Mew: *furious* MEET ME AT ROSEMARY IN 1 HOUR. OR...
Singto: Or what?
Mew: you're dead
Singto: But what happened?
Mew: Shit happened of course, why else do you think would I call you at the time when I know you have make-out plans with that sweetheart of yours! *irritated*
Singto: Okay... I'll be leaving now. Alright?
Mew: Better be true
Singto: Sure is
Mew: Good
[CALL END]
*************************
Mew was already in his car he looked up and saw that Sammy and P'Zee standing in the gallery looking at him worriedly. He was too displeased with what had just happened to look at his siblings any longer and just drove away.
The whole way long he was cursing at the cars passing by to try to cool his head.
