Chapter 24: He's mine
That night, Namtarn couldn't close his eyes to sleep. Because when he closed them, his brain remembered the image of the male actors kissing passionately in the video clip that he saw that night. And that he couldn't get out of his head at all
Since Mangkorn drove him back to his house, he just sat and watched various video clips that Muay sent him from start to finish. Of course, watching it was embarrassing, although he was beginning to understand that men can be in a relationship with each other. But what kept Namtarn from sleeping all night was when he thought of the image of P'Mangkorn that floated up and overlapped in his mind. Namtarn doesn't know what it is. And it was embarrassing to seek advice from the people of the house. Until he realized that a new light of day shone into his room. Therefore, the person had to get up and take a shower, even though, since he was born, Namtarn had only just understood the word 'bright face' today.
"Good morning. Hm, why are your eyes like that? Sleeping late?"
But when Mangkorn saw the younger's face, he couldn't help but comment on the little one's tired condition, which wasn't full of radiance as it usually was.
"Well, Namtarn had to study for the test," answered the little man without looking him in the face. When he looked at him for an instant, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be that Namtarn had a heart disease? But he was only seventeen?
“Should you take a break today? I can warn your friends, in order for them to help you with classes. We shouldn't move you from home.” The tall figure presented an idea, causing the little man to shake his head to the side. to another.
"Hey, Namtarn is okay. I can't miss Professor Jude's last period today. Namtarn has to go."
"If you can't go, can you still hurry up and call and tell him?" The little boy shook his head again instead of answering before laying back on the seat to sleep. Seeing that, Mangkorn didn't invite the other party to speak, as this might interfere with the younger person.
But in fact, Namtarn didn't sleep a second from his house to college. But he had to pretend that he slept like that, because if he was awake, Mangkorn would definitely invite him to talk on the way. And Namtarn can't accept this. Namtarn would have a heart attack.
"What are you going to eat today, I'll go buy it?" On the way to the parking lot, Mangkorn asked the other person as he normally did, but today it didn't seem like he was in the mood for breakfast like every day.
"Namtarn isn't hungry at all. He can eat at noon," replied the little man.
"Hmm, then let's go, okay?" Receiving the answer, Mangkorn didn't continue to ask, and they walked straight to the group without having any conversation. But when they reached the crosswalk Mangkorn reached out his hand to hold his own and cross the street.
"Oh."
Today, the junior didn't let him hold hands with him as usual. He quickly brushed his hand away at the feel of Mangkorn's warm fingertips. He usually always held hs hand for safety when they had to cross the street.
"Today, Namtarn will cross by himself."
"Yes," he said. Teally that was all he could answer.
If he hadn't thought of it himself, he might have thought of something. And of course the cause was undoubtedly his...
When they arrived, Mangorn first accompanied him to the classroom, since he hadn't eaten like he did every day. After escorting his junior, he told him that he would go to his own class, not forgetting to warn him that if he couldn't continue with his class, to contact him immediately. To which the little boy told him that it was unusually easy, he nodded, not arguing at all. When he finished, Namtarn quickly made it to Jude's class.
"I can't help but feel ashamed. I have to go to the doctor. Namtarn this is definitely a heart disease.'
"Oh Namtarn, won't you have breakfast with P'Mangkorn today?" Muay said, congratulating herself with a few petting after Mangkorn left before appearing without going near the hideout to taunt her little friend. But everything had to bend when she saw Namtarn's languishing face.
"I could not sleep last night."
"Couldn't you sleep? Or... couldn't you exactly sleep?" Muay thought but didn't say, because her friend probably wouldn't understand the implications of what she wanted to communicate anyway. Well, Namtarn is extremely innocent. .So innocent that she was embarrassed that maybe he understood too much.But that's all she can do to match her friend and her elder, not to use it for herself...
"It's for Muay."
“Oh, is it because of me or why…?” asks the other woman who likes to take care of “?” To her friend when he joined her.
“Because of the videos that Muay sent me all night. After watching them, my heart is pounding. The Muay videos must have given me heart disease.”
The moral friend of the group grunted. Namtarn to get into the room and prevent the others from listening in. Because if anyone heard what Namtarn had to say, then they would have to be beaten for doing that with the faculty treasure.
"Who, hey, tell me why watching the video clip, your heart pounded?" Muay asked in a worried tone, but in fact, she was having fun. Perhaps what awaits in his heart would come true soon. And if she was not mistaken about the cause of the little boy's symptoms.
"You always saw the image of a person after watching the video," Namtarn must have thought of the image of 'Mangkorn' after watching the video, she told herself.
"Oh, that's it."
"So what is it? Do I have heart disease? When I think of that video, I remember one person. That makes my heart pound all over the place."
"If that's the case, don't worry at all."
"Why not?" The little man cocked his neck, wondering.
"They say that after seeing the video, if we think about someone's face," she said. "We have to do something about it."
"That means we like that person."
"Huh," Namtarn gasped. Muay, what is that? If so, does that mean Namtarn likes P'Mangkorn? Probably not, I'm just confused."
“Namtarn, is there someone you like? Can you tell me?" Muay joked as she saw the little man blush with embarrassment. She gently pressed her best friend's elbow. And that made Namtarn feel embarrassed.
"No, no, not one bit. I like P'Mangkorn!" Finally, despite trying to hide, he was the one who solved everything, and even if he raised his hand to cover his mouth, it didn't work, because what was hidden had already been revealed.
"What's wrong Namtarn? It's P'Mangkorn! If Min was here too, she would definitely be cursed. Because of the performance Muay did, even if it was the performance of an elementary school kid, you could tell she was faking it. .except for Namtarn who believed her.
"Shh, shh, don't make any noise, Muay."
"Ok, I'm sorry." The woman changed her tone to a whisper.
"So you're telling me that the person who makes Namtarn's heart flutter is P'Mangkorn."
"Um"
"Okay, tell the doctor your symptoms, how do you feel?"
Even if he felt embarrassed, Namtarn opened his mouth to share everything he felt with his best friend. Regardless of the matter, Namtarn tickled his heart whenever he thought of P'Mangkorn. Or if the person feels good when he is with Mangkorn, it was a different feeling than he feels for P'Namkang.
The temporary doctor agreed after how much she had told her friend before proceeding to draw conclusions based on the knowledge she had learned, that is, the series and the novels. Which, if she had to answer that she was an expert on the matter, you could say yes, since she was more reliable in this than in studies.
"Doctor, would like to summarize it."
I smile before answering.
"Namtarn likes P'Mangkorn."
"..."
On the other side they were shaking the loser.
"Oh, dad, why did you come to study quickly today? You're not going to have breakfast with the junior"
"Enough, aunt!"
"Oh, the man's head was beaten like a drum." Pung groaned in exaggeration. Even though Mangkorn's palm was heavy, with his mouth often swaying, he left it at that. But he was upset that the ex-moon of the faculty thinks of devouring the treasure of the university. Not knowing what to say about Namkang, but Namkang allowed Mangkorn to take care of him.
"Shut"
"What's wrong, friend? Why don't you look so bright today?" It's not just Namtarn, but he also felt strange, because after parting with his Nong, he could feel that the atmosphere between him and Namtarn today wasn't bright at all.
"Oh~," the former moon sighed. Anyone who says that he saw the moon, he would think that he is comfortable, that he doesn't care about going to flirt with anyone. That face just blinked an eye, and either a man or a woman gave up. But it means that if that was the case, it would have been good, because now he was just a little boy and he couldn't play with him.
"You sigh so loudly that I wonder if it would be a story about your Nong, right? What can you say to your friend Pung?" Although Pung is his friend he doesn't focus on relationships with status, Pung is confident in the skills he gains when watching the dramas. "f someone else comes to listen like this, other than accidentally telling them. It probably has a shoe as a bonus. But for a close friend like Mangkorn, it would have been better for him to joke around like that if he got serious, then, he wouldn't have dared speak to him.
"I think it has changed."
"How?"
Mangkorn told the events of today to his close friend. He felt that since last night the little boy began to act strangely. A good listener like Pung nodded to the point and listened to his friend's words, and when the other party finished speaking, it was the "love guru"(?)'s turn to give his best friend some advice ( ?) and be able to conquer his little one.
"Did you forget Mangkorn? You know, he is young and not the same as other children of the same age.If it was another boy of this age, he would have known that you flirted with the junior. It's so clear. But because he is younger, it may not be strange for him to misunderstand. Unfortunately now he will understand that you are like another brother to him."
"You've been with your junior for almost twenty-four hours, I guess maybe he's uncomfortable,"
Mangkorn followed what the other person said. And it was true as his friend said. All this time, he has been with his little junior almost every day, especially during this time, he would not have to say how much he and his junior were by each other's side. As for him, if there are people who get caught like this, he doesn't have to think too much, especially when he sneaked into the young man's room, he was secretly annoyed at his stupidity. And as for Namtarn, the person who doesn't even know anything was lying in wait like this, how annoying would it be for him?
"So, I guess I have to step away for a bit. Let him have her own life."
That's right, he should be able to take some distance. He had a life of your own. Even Namkang who was jealous to this point still allows his brother to have some freedom. And for the one who always stays close to him, it would be better to follow the advice that his friend gave him.
He should have some distance from Namtarn...
If it was a normal day, at noon, Mangkorn always went for Namtarn until he often got beaten up by his friends. In the group, they often complained that he 'runs away to get his wife', so today, as a friend who hasn't been at the dining table for a long time, he took the opportunity to have lunch with a group of close friends who didn't they had sat together. for a long time.
"Oh, what are you doing, Fern?" The voice of Mangkorn's close friend greeted her. He saw a pretty young woman who visited the group a lot in the past, and today she was with the group again, so he couldn't help but greet according to etiquette.
"Oh, he took some papers to the college teacher," the woman said.
"Shall we eat together? I haven't seen Fern in a long time," the voice of Shin who was also sitting spoke up when he saw the beautiful woman.
"So, let's join at the table."
"Come here."
"Hello Mangkorn," she said to her ex-boyfriend as she sat across from the other person.
"Hello Fern," Mangkorn said greeting her like a polite person before smiling at her again like someone he had been dating.
"Why are you eating with your friends today? I got news that you usually like to sit down to eat with your junior" Because this girl is the great Marine who has always supported him and Namtarn, as well as that she was the one who was dating Mankon, the woman opened up to admit that she liked Namtarn.
"He was rejected by his junior, Fern"
"Shut the fuck up, Pung"
"That is true, I will help Mangkorn."
"Don't say that. Fern, I'm already tired," Mangkorn replied with a lethargic expression, as if a dog was in the middle of a bone to nibble on. So she couldn't help but laugh at the image in front of him.
That little guy seems to have a lot of influence in Mangkorn, right?
"Haha, Fern is kidding. It's fine, I'm trying to flirt with the newcomer. We think Mangkorn will definitely do it." Shin said that he was so busy that he stopped going to buy the rice.
"Let's be friends," the two said, then rose from the table before heading to the store to take guests from different classes to lunch for the day.
They did not take long to choose a restaurant because they had already visited it before.
After finishing ordering the food, she and Mangkorn walked to the adjacent restaurant together to pass the time for the vendor to handle their orders.
"Because Pung said that Mangkorn was really rejected by his junior."
"Actually, it's not like that. I just feel like my junior may feel uncomfortable because I'm too close to him. So I thought it would be better to move away a bit."
"Mangkorn thinks a lot about things like this. But trust me, don't think like that. The sense of women is strong," she said as she smiled in support of her ex-boyfriend, who now
changed his status to be her best friend.
"I have the iced tea."
"Thanks."
"Wow, I'm so sorry Aunt's hand is slippery. Wow, go get a tissue and bring it to Aunt quickly." Because the clerk's hand was wet, the hand that was supposed to hold the glass fell out of the clerk's hand, but fortunately, the water spilled a little on her skirt, she hurriedly turned around to order the boy from the store to go out for toilet paper.
"Okay, aunty. Fern, I'll clean it up with my tissues, the water might leak out completely."
"Okay? Mangkorn. I'll wait for the tissues from Aunt"
"Come on, Fern."
“If so, I am not afraid.” Knowing what kind of person the other party was, she didn't speak before accepting the handkerchief to clean up the spilled part of the water, and just as she was about to pull the handkerchief out of Mangkorn's hand.
Oh.
A thin boy approached her.
The slim figure in front of her, even with a face that doesn't seem confident. But you can see how jealous he... was of Mangkorn.
"..."
"D'Mangkorn…"
"P'Mangkorn belongs to Namtarn, don't take him anywhere!"
The blushing person. He spoke softly and stuttered like someone who is ashamed of what he was saying, but it was enough for them both to hear what he wanted to say.
Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard something they didn't expect the little guy would dare to say... Even if someone thought he was a sparrow. But he had to admit that a single sentence from Namtarn made Mangkorns heart, which had been dry from all day, become fluffier than a balloon filled with air.
"Hey, that's P'Mangkorn."
"Hmm, yeah, why did you come here to eat rice today?" The little boy followed the point where the two girls pointed.
Today, Mangkorn didn't come to lunch with him like every day, because the other party had come back to sit with the close friends of his group. It might be a bad idea for the kid, but even then, Namtarb was secretly a little dissatisfied, when his P'Mangkorn refused to sit with him like the past.
“That woman. If I remember correctly, it's P'Fern is P'Mangkorn's ex-girlfriend,” Min said.
The three of them widened their eyes when they heard what Min said. They had just noticed that there was also a beautiful woman sitting with the group of seniors. And the sight of her in front of her made Namtarn feel like he was being hit by little red ants. Biting his heart. He felt his heart prickling as he looked at the image of Mangkorn talking intimately with the woman.
"Hey, where are you two going?
"To ask. Let's go fast." If he were normal, the youngest of all would see him as silly and he would not be willing to follow his friends.
But this time ...
Namtarn and his friends continue to stalk Mangkorn and his ex-girlfriend from a distance to avoid getting caught. But then, the image made Namtarn feel like he was being bitten by large fire ants in his heart that burned with pain, unlike before that could only make him itch. But the scene in front of him, the image of the young woman about to shake hands with his P'Mangkorn made him feel great pain.
These warm palms, they should only belong to Namtarn!
The "Red Code" Jah is opened.
"Namtarn can't be defeated like this!" Muay said.
"If Namtarn doesn't do anything, se will lose P'Mangkorn." Min's final sentence made Namtarn's conscience frustrated.
All this time, Namtarn felt good about having P'Mangkorn in his life. Namtarn could have understood that Mangkorn was another important person in his life, just like his real brother. But today, Namtarn understood his own feelings for his P'Mangkorn, which were not the same as the feelings between the seniors and the juniors. It's not a brother-brother feeling… yeah. And it could be what Muay said.
Namtarn would rather be a stubborn bad boy than sacrifice the important things in his life. Because Namtarn has now realized that 'He likes P'Mangkorn'.
"P'Mangkorn belongs to Namtarn, don't take him anywhere!"
'Huh, Namtarn is embarrassed'
"Oh, it's Nong Namtarn, right?"
"Yes, I'm Namtarn" The little man answered the question of the girl in front of him, although he still didn't trust the other person. Even if the other party was a woman, Namtarn wouldn't give up P'Mangkorn to her!
The small but big-hearted man stood halfway up P'Mangkorn to protect Mangkorn from being "tempted" by that woman.
"Huh. Nong is very cute. Fern now understands why Mangkorn changed his status to be my best friend."
The little man nodded slowly. He was embarrassed at this moment, unable to speak.
"And then ..."
"Be my boyfriend".
