18:Detective's call

Start from the beginning
                                    

(Sin said Trying his best to not outburst on beam.)

Beam: He threatened me.

Sin: Off course he will. Why the hell you intentionally fall in his trap? You knew he will do anything to save Hanie. He just tried his luck blindly and you gave in easily.

Beam: I know.

Sin: Why Beam? Why? Was all that suffering not enough for you?

Now they both were silent. Sin sat on the chair in front of Beam. He didn't understand why Beam would do something like that in first place. His eyes filled with tears when he heard what Beam said next with weak voice.

Beam: I want to be selfish.............................................................. I don't want people to mock Hanie as orphan in future.................................... I know THEY will take good care of him like a son, but In future, I don't want Hanie to blame me for not letting him spent his childhood with his biological father when Forth wanted to take care of him. And ........................and................................................. I don't know what I am doing is right or not but I want to spend my remaining time with Forth. ...............................I want to close my eyes forever while smiling at Hanie in Forth's embr-

Sin: HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE NOT DYING. IT'S CURABLE. THERE IS SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT FOR IT. WE WILL FIND A WAY. (Sob) Why are you not fighting? (Sob) Why you always forgot that there is son and I waiting here for you? (Sob) Why?

Beam: I .........................I am tired, Sin. .....................................I am tired of fighting........................I am tired of this life.............................................. I know you and THEY will take good care of Hanie. Even Forth and others will now. ................You guys can provide him way more than I could. Better Education, Better food, everything.

Sin: But he need you more than anything Beam. (Sob) Why don't you understand? (Sob) He can't even live one day without you beside him.

Beam: He is kid that's why he do that. As he gets older, He will forgot me eventually only remembering in pictures.

Sin: BEAM. (Sin yelled and abruptly stand and went to Beam, taking his hand in his.) P-please don't talk like t-this. (Sob) We need you Beam. Hanie need you. Please understand.

Beam looked at his best friend. He was the one who was there with him in his hard times. He was the only one who he could share his pain wholeheartedly. Since four years, he always listen to him but not this time. He has made his mind. He had decided that he would spend his last days with Forth and Hanie, and leave the matter of Hanie's custody to Hanie himself. From the beginning, he had made sure, Hanie would take every possible decision of his life himself. He didn't force anything on his son until and now he won't force this decision also. IT will be Hanie who would pick between Forth and THEM, not Beam.






Meanwhile Forth was standing outside the building of Sin's apartment, waiting for his son and husband. It's been an hour since they went inside. He drop them in front of the door but that Sin guy didn't invite him inside. HE got the hint that he has to spend his time outside. On other time he would have spent his time in his car which was parked few meters away but he decided not to. He was courting Beam now. What if Beam decided to go on his own when not seeing him outside? So he sat on one of the dirty stair waiting for them.

Forth's phone ring. He looked at the number, unknown number. It was really rare for him to get a call from unknown number since his number is private and only few people have it. Nonetheless he picked the phone.

FORTH: "Hello?"

Unknown: Is this Mr. Forth Jaturapoom?

Forth: yes.

Unknown: I am detective Lee. You must have heard my name from Mr. Kit. He hired me on your case about the matter of fake DNA test.

Forth got alert. Did he find something? Did he found who have done it? He will torture the person to death. Forth compose himself in a second. Not wanting to seem unprofessional. But he still couldn't hide his excitement.

FORTH: Yes. Yes. Kit told me. So did you find anything?

Unknown: um actually yes. But I want to tell it in person Mr. Jaturapoom. Please tell me when you are free, when I could meet you?

Forth: Okay. I am free after eight this evening. You could meet me at IN's hotel at 9pm. I would call Kit al-

Unknown: No Mr. Jaturapoom. If I wanted Mr. Kit to know this, I would have call him since he was the one who hired me. But after the thing that I found out I couldn't trust anyone beside you not even Mr. Kit. That's why call you directly. Don't tell anyone about our meeting not even you're family and your band mates. I will hang up now. See you at 9pm.
