Part 8

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Ohoo~! What's all this? Did you miss me too that you brought this many gifts?

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
I do miss you, but not this much. Your parents gave you these. I accidentally met them when I got off the plane.

First went completely silent. Khao looked at First in a look confusing.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
What's wrong? Don't you like it?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
I guess..

Khao sat beside First and held his hand gently.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
What's wrong..? If there's something wrong, you can tell me..?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Hmm.. I don't really like them.. I'm also not that close to them.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Why is that? What made you don't like them..

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Since I was 5, my dad started to hate me because of my attitude. But I never really questioned my behavior in my life.. I've never done something bad..

Khao listened to him carefully.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
My mother disagrees with my dad about my attitude. Dad still hates me till this day, but sometimes he gifts me things from other countries. Like a necklace from Italy once.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
But aren't you happy that your father didn't forget about you?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
I guess so.. I miss mom..

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
What do you mean? I thought she lived with you guys?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
She's my stepmother, mom committed suicide on my birthday. That's why I don't celebrate my birthday often..

Khao looked at First with a soft and deep gaze. He kissed First forehead softly.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
I'm so sorry, are you okay? Do you want some alone time?

First didn't answer and had his head down. Khao looked concerned. He saw tears falling from his eyes.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Uii..!. Are you okay..?? Why are you crying..?

Khao said with a soft voice. He hugged First gently, making sure that he's comfortable. First hugged him back. Khao tapped his back softly.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
It's okay, let it all out..

He sat beside First and wrapped his arms in him. First layed on Khao's shoulder and cried his heart out.

Khao longed the hug and rested his head on First's head.

A minute has gone by,

Khao fell asleep on First's head. He lifted up his head and saw him asleep. First let Khao sleep on his shoulder.

The next morning,

Khao woke up on First's bed, but not seeing him there with him. Instead, he saw him sitting on the couch, playing on his phone.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Uii..? First? When did you wake up?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Oh, Khao. I woke up just an hour ago.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
And why are you sitting on the couch instead of here?

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
I saw you were still asleep and let you sleep on my bed. I didn't mind. Don't worry about me, I can walk perfectly fine now.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Oh.. But-

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Shh. Since your awake now, let's go out and find something to eat

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
What about your health-

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
I'm getting healthier and healthier each day! Don't worry too much, Khao

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Hm.. Okay, then. I'm gonna wash up.

Khao saw First waiting for him outside the hospital.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Are you ready? Let's go

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Wait but-

First took his hand and went for a walk before finding a suitable restaurant.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
What about this place?

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Oh.. Uhm.. It's okay

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
What's wrong? Do you not like it? If you dont, just tell me.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
It's not that.. I'm just not comfortable in fancy restaurants.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭:
Oh.. It's okay, then. Where do you wanna go?

Khao smiled and took him to an ordinary restaurant. Not too fancy, and not too plain.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Mom!

Khao said after he went into the place

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨'𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫:
Uii? Khao? What brings you here? And who's this young gentleman?

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
Uii..! We're here to eat something delicious. And he's my..

Khao looked at First. First looked back and expect Khao to say something.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨:
My.. Boyfriend..!

Khao smiled at his mom and then back at First. First smiled back and started blushing.

𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐨'𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫:
Uii..!! My son already has a lover! Alright! You two go sit. I'll prepare something delicious for you guys.
