Untamed Hearts

Word on the street

"What would you say about this video??? Were you always after Mr. Perawat's money???"

"Mr. Suthalik! Mr. Suthalik, do you have anything to say regarding you demanding money in the video???"

" were speculations made by Mr. Xavier true??"

"Please answer!! Your quiet is only proving you guilty"

"Do you have falsely accused Mr. Aat Perawat??"

"are you romantically involved with your attorney???"

"What's your real motive behind getting in relation with youngest Perawat??? Is it some kind of ploy on your part??? Answer Mr. Suthalik"

Kongpob clutches Arthit's hand firmly, not looking up once as the questions are fired from all directions by the reporters hounding outside the uni.

"Arthit, let's let's go inside"

The head hazer nods as he shields his boyfriend from being photographed by waving his hands in front of the camera. His other arm wrapped protectively around other's shoulder while barking at the hungry vultures to move away.

"Mr. Suthalik, please say something else it would be taken as you accepting all these bad mouthing which is happening on the social media after that video"

The anchor turns to the camera and brings her mic to her peach stained lips and starts reporting, gesturing her team to focus on the retreating back of the students and their subject of interest for the evening," we all can see how much Mr. Suthalik has refused to say anything on the issue. Both parties have neither confirm nor denied or released any kind of statement which is only fueling the rumours. Exactly 3 days later, is the hearing of this case who has upturned not only Thai business world but also have shaken all international mergers as Perawat Empire is the largest conglomerate in Asian Business world. The result of the case would either make or break Perawats."

Arthit and Kongpob walks away from the paparazzi which has been stopped at the entrance, not allowing any of them inside the campus. It has been more than 48 hours since that video has been deleted but the hype has not died down. Instead more and more reporters are hounding each and every move of Kongpob, going to the extent of camping outside his dorm building as well as home. People are divided in two parts - one supporting Kongpob while other lashing out at him for using such sensitive topic to make money. Media is also not sparing Perawat brothers. Atid, Arthit, Aat all are facing reporters badgering them for answers. Pestering them to comment on their relation with the victim. Perawat empire is also facing one loss after another, not only in Thailand but also overseas. All the involved parties are stressed as newscahnnels are not letting the scandal die down. But the most affected parties are Kongpob and Aat. Just yesterday Aat had straight punched a reporter for asking some controversial question involving Atid and Kongpob which only let to more and more speculations. Kongpob has stopped his therapy lessons and has caged himself within our walls. His nightmares have restarted while his anxiety and panic attacks have not made their presence known but Kongpob always seems at the edge. Only Asnee's presence is anchoring him against the strong waves. Even Arthit and Atid are finding it difficult to make him speak.

" The Suthalik verses Perawats case is going to be one of the infamous case of its time which has gotten its own name. The brutal rape and kidnapping case from 5 years back is creating all types of uproar among netizens called as Untamed Hearts. It is one unique case where even accused is defending the honour of victim as has happened last day when modelling God Aat Perawat has been sued for hitting a reporter when he was asked to comment on victims' character for having affairs with not one but both of his brothers. The eldest Perawat even went a step ahead and warned the media to not go on and spout bullshit about his Kong... Looks like all Perawat brothers are wrapped around fingers of a single person....", Mongkut reads out loud the article before throwing it away. He can't believe that his son has gone this much stupid in his obsession. He fishes out his phone from his pocket and curses seeing Xavier's name flashing on the screen. An exasperated sigh leaves him as he can feel another headache coming his way with full cartage of blaring trumpets and blowing conch shells.
