Not hungry yet but didn’t eat anything since the last day. Tsk.
You’re not full Gun. You’re a fool!
“Well then.” She shrugged.
“First told me everything.” She added.
Those words were like a bomb to me. My heart beat so fast and my breath became heavy.
Will she scold me about it?
Shit, I must ready myself because I have a feeling that I will receive an earful.
Knowing Tay’s mom, nothing can stop her from saying what she wants.
“I’m sorry.”
Before she spills anything, I apologized already. I’m guilty for all this mess anyway.
“About?”
Huh?
“Uh...about everything. I know First---
“Why don’t you listen to me first Nong Gun?”
I nodded like a puppy.
“Nong Gun, First told me everything. And I know that my son is the one who’s at fault. And I am very sorry for that.”
“It’s okay krap.” I nod and plastered an assuring smile.
“First also told me about khun Off.”
The smile that I forcefully shows immediately fade away. I can’t take hearing that name. I can’t help but to speak up.
“Off is just a friend. It was nothing I swear---
“Nong Gun, listen to me.”
From a strict face, her face became soft like a mother looking at her child with pity.
She reaches for my hand and smiled warmly.
“Nong Gun, no one forbids you to love again right?” she asked all of a sudden.
I stared at her and she is just smiling at me. There’s no hint of anger or disappointment on her face just a pure and sincere smile.
The confusion in my head reaches at the highest peak. I can’t think clearly.
“Mâae ngong.” That’s what I just said to Tay’s mom. I’m really confused.
Tay’s mom chuckled and caressed my hand.
“That Off, you have good feelings for him right?”
“H-huh? No it’s just---
“Tell me the truth Nong Gun. I want you’re honesty here and you should be honest to yourself.”
I was taken aback.
Be honest to myself...why? Am I lying to myself all this time?
And...
Do I really love Off? Does my feelings for him already reach to that point?
“I don’t know if I love him. But—
“But?”
“I feel happy when he is around and felt sad and guilty whenever he is angry at me.” I sincerely said.
Curiosity is now evident in Tay’s mom.
“And?”
“And uhm...he made me feel special in every way that he can.”
“Uhm... he let me feel that I am special and deserved to be loved.” I added. Remembering those happy moments with Off makes me smile. “But I choose Tay.”
