kongpob's new boyfriend

Summary: 2 months after Kongpob and Arthit broke up, bad news broke out; Kongpob has a new boyfriend. The whole squad is eager to know who the mysterious guy is. They wanted to talk to him and made sure he left Kongpob alone. They didn't want to accept him. They don't want a new addition to their group. Plus, it's Arthit and Kongpob for life bitch. But their number 1 goal is to keep the secret from Arthit, not wanting to hurt him.

That is the most impossible thing because they're all mouthy fuckers who can't keep a secret to themselves.

inspired from The Big Bang Theory's season 4 episode 20

"I don't want to tell you this," Knot's tone tells Arthit that he's definitely going to tell Arthit. "But you're my best friend, so you have the right to know... Kongpob has a new boyfriend."

Arthit's eyes widen.

He and Kongpob broke up 2 months ago. To this day, Arthit doesn't know why they broke up without talking things first because they usually do.

That night they broke up, it was probably the shittiest day, excluding that they broke up. He had problems with his relatives. The workloads were stressing him more than they should be, and add to that were the baseless gossip against him and John's assholish treatment.

Arthit was on the verge of crying when he got to his apartment. Everything around him was overwhelming, and it was stressing him. But he made through because he knew Kongpob would be there for him. He expected to come home to find his boyfriend, his anchor, the only one he could trust and lean on times like this.

What he didn't expect was Kongpob, still irritated that Arthit had to cancel their date despite Arthit's profusely apologizing earlier and explaining his side, nagging at every single thing left unorganized in Arthit's apartment.

It's like Arthit couldn't do anything right anymore. Arthit's distress and anger burst in the open when he saw Kongpob picking up his thrown shoes. The younger was annoyed and muttering to himself, disappointment lacing his voice.

That's it. Arthit gritted his teeth, ready to last at the younger. But he controlled his voice, not one to get scandalous in the late night.

Arthit glared at Kongpob. "You know if you're going to keep this up, let's just end this." Even when Arthit was calm on the outside, his irritation was not amiss.

Kongpob shrugged. "You're right. Maybe we should just end this."

"Cool!"

"Cool."

Kongpob left him like that.

It was not a pretty closure, no, yeah, it was a very shitty and ugly breakup, especially since the two of them had the healthiest relationship in their squad. And damn, they're obviously the ones for each other.

And instead of talking about it with clear minds, their pride and bitterness got to them, each one reasoning they're not at fault, so why should they be sorry? That's why, even with their friends' continuous desperate efforts to make them talk and fix their relationship, the gap between them had widened, it can no longer be salvaged.

Even their friends had already given up trying to fix them. It's just done. Kongpob and Arthit are done and have moved on.

Maybe that's just it!

Maybe forever isn't real!

Maybe love is dead.

Maybe it's Maybelline.

But, 2 months after, this... Kongpob has truly moved on. Kongpob has a new boyfriend.

It was Maprang who discovered it. Prae and May usually told her reading the room isn't her strong suit. She agreed with them. Sometimes, that's true, yes. But not in this kind of situation.
