"Dark and cold is the reality of the universe. Stardust bringing hope of life is just a minuscule on its timescale"- Albert Einstein.
So is the period of a warm obsession towards a person in our lifetime. It's intensity is short lived, just a part of the whole living, most of it being denergizing responsibilities, peer pressure and ruthless ambitions....
Yet the heart clings onto only this ephemeral madness coz it gets them through the despodence.

Nanon and ohm were now engaged in individual promotions. For a couple of years there has been no collab between the two. The last they were seen together was in 2023 for 'My Precious' where they acted as friends. Their presence at the promotion interview as well as the preview release only had a couple of formal greetings and awkward stances when put beside each other. Discomfort clearly showed on their faces when asked about CP. Something between them, faded.....
Projects filled their calender. Face timing, meeting on weekends, endorsing brands together, them being called into the YT channels of the fellow artists together, participation in reality shows together, none of these happened anymore.

Their individual followers increased in number. Ohm's Chinese fandom made donations under his name for the cyclone-relief funds to Phillipines in August. Nanon's fans from Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, South Korea, Singapore, Cambodia and Indonesia sent medical aids and resources towards curbing the omicron resurge, 2024 Dec in China. Whenever there was a topic of Nanon-Ohm CP from the fans who missed BBS, the discussion always led in a dangerous direction. Solo fandoms cussed at each other, exhibited displeasure towards the partial treatment and negligence in promoting by the agency towards their idol. Nanon's fans thought that Ohm had exploited his friend's status and fame to get work, on the other hand, Ohm's fandom accused Non of using his partner to revive his dormant career.

The past couple of years ,GMM had produced number of series, a couple of films and several MVs and CFs in Collab with artists who once belonged to Nadao, an agency which had now dissolved. Nanon worked with his desired actors and directors from the film fraternity. Ohm managed to film a couple of 'lakorns' with leading actresses like Aff and Mokgda nanirak. On their rating graph, apparently, spotlight from viewers worldwide and desirability of being roped into a project reduced recognisably after 2024. This was the case with both Ohm and Nanon, now that they had once enjoyed peak of world domination with BBS, a couple of years ago. Inevitably they were turning rivals on media.

Artists of GMM gathered to discuss Concert Tour Universally, CTU as they abbreviated it. They promoted it as CTU25-Coming To U, 2025.
Ohm and Nanon were alloted D2 for performing. The other days were alloted to the rest of the CPs. A classic-pop mixed ensemble by instrumentalists like Toptap on keys, Gunsmile on guitar, Sivakorn for percussion along with Earth on flute for opening the stage was finalised. Ohm was to perform a rig on drums with Perth on electric guitar and Ploy kanyarat, on keys, followed by a ballet story enactment with Love. Nanon suggested an aerial act with Jane ramida before his vocal performance along with a band of his choice.
They also jotted a segment of singing ost of BBS together along with 'Kit ta mai teung' by Tilly birds for closing.

Posters were edited from their pics from photoshoots they had couple of years ago coz their dates were not available for now. Since there were no projects for the third quater of the year, Nanon requested a vacation to work on his album while Ohm had projects signed abroad. He was flying to Seoul. Insiders understood the uneasiness in their situation so did not judge them. Both their parents could observe a drastic change in the behaviour of their sons over a long period. Both Ohm and Nanon wanted to keep themselves occupied to repress an anonymous yet strong ache.....

It is the law of nature: only best of friends can turn into cruelest of enemies.
