Techno's P.O.V:
I decided to go meet Ai Kla today.
Ai Champ insisted on coming with me but I agreed on the condition that he waits outside.
I texted Ai Kla telling him that I'm coming over to his house.
He opened the door himself and let me in and Ai Champ sat on the porch.
"If it takes more than ten minutes I'm coming in" He said.
I sighed and shook my head.
"Suit yourself" I said smiling before I entered after Ai Kla.
This was probably my third or fourth visit after Ai Type was found.
"I'm here because my therapist insisted that I should meet you as part of my treatment" I said before he could even speak.
He sighed and nodded.
"Yeah apparently you have become one of my worst nightmares" I said sitting down.
"I'm sorry" He said.
I stayed silent.
The voice in my head said that I shouldn't forgive him and that I've suffered enough.
It's their turn to suffer.
You idiot.
Stop being so naive and pathetic.
I took a deep breath then took out my medicines.
"Get me some water" I said.
He nodded and went to the kitchen.
Then came back with the water a few minutes later.
"Where's your house keeper?...Are you here by yourself?" I asked.
"I gave her a day off" He said.
I sighed and nodded.
We stayed silent for what felt like minutes.
"She cares about you" I said.
He sighed and nodded.
But I could easily tell that he didn't believe me.
That's the difference between Ai Sun and Ai Kla.
Ai Kla was ready to listen if I insisted on something while Ai Sun just does whatever he wants even if it wasn't right.
And to get back to normal I somehow have to befriend those two people again.
"Ai Kla...I'm serious...She really cares" I said again.
"Alright I get" He said in a slightly irritated tone.
I sighed and shook my head.
The voices started to disappear.
"I'm sorry...I mean I must have given you wrong signs right?" I asked.
"No it's not your fault P...I just hoped that you'd forgive me" He said.
"I'm trying my best" I said honestly.
He smiled and nodded.
"I have to go now though...But this won't be the last time we meet" I said standing up.
"I just wanted you to know that I really regret what I did P'No" He said.
"That's a good start" I said then started walking to the doorstep and finally left the house.
"What happened?...Are you alright?" Ai Champ asked standing up.
"Yes...It was awkward but I think I have to do it a lot until it doesn't feel awkward anymore" I said smiling awkwardly.
"Don't worry you'll be fine I just know it" He said patting my back.
"Thanks" I said smiling.
Then we started walking to the bus stop.
One down...One more to go.
I took a deep breath then knocked on the door.
P'Kwan opened the door.
"Sawadee Krap P" I said.
"Sawadee Krap" He said.
Then he let us in.
"Ai Sun said that he's going to South Korea next week to continue his studies there" P'Kwan said.
I sighed and nodded.
Then I followed P'Kwan to Ai Sun's room.
I asked Ai Champ to wait outside before I entered the room.
"Ummm...Good to see that your wound is healed now" I said smiling awkwardly.
"It's fine" He said.
I sighed and sat down in front of him.
"I started going to therapy...I realized that I actually needed help" I said.
"I'm sorry" He said.
I sighed and nodded.
"Do you hate me?" He asked.
"I don't know my feelings...It's confusing...I thought I hated you but now I'm not even sure" I said.
"I didn't hate you...But I'm not sure if what I felt for you was love either" He said.
"Well then what was it?" I asked.
I was really afraid of the answer but I felt like I had to know.
"We spent most of our childhood together...You were just innocent and naive and had a really irresistible smile...You charmed me...Not just me but also P'Kwan...Growing up together I really started to like you as more than just a friend...But I had to compete over your attention with P'Kwan...After you rejected me when we were in middle school I felt like I lost you to my brother...And that's when I started to get obsessed with you" He said.
"Wow...That's really messed up you know that?" I asked smiling awkwardly.
"I know it's messed up...I'm sorry" He said.
"But I don't feel like this towards you" I said.
"I know" He said.
"Or your brother" I said.
He looked up at me confused.
"It was never a competition because I never liked any of you guys...You two are like brothers to me" I said.
"Fair enough" He said smiling and shaking his head.
We stayed silent for what felt like minutes.
"I'm going to South Korea" He said.
"Yeah...I heard" I said.
"Can you please grant me this one last wish?" He asked.
I looked at him and nodded.
I already had an idea about what his wish was.
He leaned nearer to my face and kissed me.
I felt nothing...I didn't even close my eyes or kiss him back.
He pulled away and smiled.
"Thank you" He said.
"I'm sorry" I said.
"Don't be...I'm actually glad that we're friends again now" He said smiling.
"Let's meet again in better circumstances" I said extending my hand for a shake.
But then he shook his head and hugged me instead.
And this time I hugged him back.
"Promise me that you will be happy again...Smile again...I hope you find someone who will love you unconditionally" He said.
"Same for you" I said.
We pulled away from each other and I stood up and left the room.
Ai Champ was talking to P'Kwan when I got out.
They were probably catching up or something.
"Are you alright?" P'Kwan asked.
"Yes...That actually went better than expected" I said.
"Good...Shall we go?" Ai Champ asked.
I smiled and nodded.
Then we left the house.
We arrived at Ai Pete's house about fifteen minutes later.
"I'm going to visit Ai Type...Do you want to come with me?" Ai Champ asked.
"Ok...Wait I'll go get more money for the ride" I said as I went upstairs to my assigned room.
Ai Kao's moans were so loud coming from Ai Pete's room downstairs.
I pursed my lips into a thin line and walked quietly trying not to disturb them.
Then literally ran out of the house to avoid the awkward atmosphere.
"Alright let's go" I said to Ai Champ.
Then we started walking to the bus stop.
(Meanwhile at a restaurant)
Mr Thiwat's P.O.V:
My sister said that she wanted to talk to me and my wife about something important.
So we decided to meet there.
"So what did you want to tell me?" I asked.
"Ummm...Nong Gulf has bipolar disorder" She said.
"What?" I asked confused.
She put a box of pills on the table.
"I found this in his room...I asked him about it and he said that it's his" She said.
"Oh my god" My wife said gasping.
"Ai Fern I know he won't listen to me but do whatever you can to convince him...He must get treatment" I said.
She sighed and nodded.
"I'll try but I don't think he's going to listen to me either" She said.
"I'll meet him myself" I said.
But then my phone started ringing.
It was my friend Narayat it was strange that he called me out of the blue so I picked up immediately.
"Sawadee Krap how have you been?" I asked.
"Oh...I'm fine...I got leads on the case" He said.
"Really?...I'm coming over" I said.
"There's another thing I think you should know but I think we should meet" He said.
"Ok" I said.
Then I told my wife and sister that we should go to the police station.
"Did they find new leads about Nong Type's case?" My wife asked.
"Yes" I said.
Then we went to the police station but Ai Fern said that she has to go to the hospital for Nong Type's session.
So we both arrived after a few minutes.
"Alright then...What did you find?" I asked.
"The three of them were in Germany...They came back only two days ago" Narayat said.
"What made them come back?" My wife asked.
"They were kicked out of the country...The German police force investigated them...Their visa expired and they didn't have a green card" Narayat said.
I sighed and nodded.
"What will become of them?" My wife asked.
"They are going to face trail for abuse and rape and kidnapping...I guarantee that the punishment will be severe" He said.
"That's good...That's very good" My wife said.
"Thank you Narayat" I said shaking his hand.
"There's another thing...It makes me really worried" He said.
"What?" I asked.
"Your son Gulf...He met with me not long ago...He asked if I could get information about a criminal called Narai Jirakit...That man is really dangerous what business does your son have with him?" He asked.
I was shocked to hear that.
"I don't know...I never heard of this" I said.
Maybe I really don't know my own son after all.
I stood up and left the police station with my wife.
I called my sister and told her that I'm coming to her house to see Nong Gulf and that she shouldn't alert him.
After a few minutes I arrived at the house with my wife and waited until Nong Gulf came back.
Gulf's P.O.V:
I went to the kitchen and got myself a glass of water then turned and saw the parents and aunt Fern.
I sighed and put the glass down on the counter.
"What?" I asked.
"Why didn't you tell us about your illness?" He asked folding his hands over his chest.
"Since when did you care?" I asked.
"Nong Gulf you know that we care about you...We're your parents" His wife said.
"Oh really?...So you're trying to say that you care about me now because I suddenly showed up and because I have bipolar disorder?" I asked.
I chuckled and clapped my hands.
"That's really cute...You almost had me there I almost believed your act" I said chuckling and clapping my hands.
"Nong Gulf..." He started.
"Nice trick...Cornering me here so that you make sure I don't go anywhere...Very nice" I said.
Then I poured them some coffee.
"Here you can have this I'm never rude to guests" I said.
"Guests?" He asked.
"Yes guests what else can you be?" I asked.
"Nong Gulf what are you saying they came here to speak with you...Didn't you say you missed them?" Aunt Fern asked.
"I also told you that there's no need to tell them this...And that I'd rather be lonely then weak" I snapped.
"NONG GULF" The man said.
"Oh so you're finally yelling at me again...Great...I was wondering when are you going to show your true colors" I said.
"Why did you meet with Narai Jirakit?...How do you know him?" He asked.
I chuckled and shook my head.
"Why?...Worried much?...What are you going to do if I said I went to ask him for help?" I asked smirking.
Causing him to slap me.
"What else can you do?...Are you feeling ashamed of me?...Maybe you're thinking that I'm a messed up criminal...Tell me dad..." I started.
Then walked closer to him.
"What does it feel like to have a criminal for a son?" I asked.
Then I smiled and took a step back.
"What are you going to do huh?... Beat me up?...Or perhaps kill me like you said that day?" I asked.
"YOU SHITTY SON" He said grabbing my collar.
"Come on...Beat me up like you used to...Take your anger out on me because you failed...That's what you always do am I right?" I asked.
"P...Let go of him" Aunt Fern said trying to get him to let go of me.
"And you...Aren't you going to say anything this time too?" I asked his wife.
She looked away from me causing me to chuckle and shake my head.
"As I thought...Your time is up...I hope I won't see you again" I said then pushed the man away from me.
"I'm not done talking to you" He said.
I sighed and turned to him again.
"What do you really want?" I asked.
He stayed silent.
"You have nothing to say right?...Do you think that it's that easy?...If I forgive you then what will guarantee that you won't beat me up again huh?...I was close to death many times...You almost killed me more then once...You got some nerve" I said.
"I'm sorry" He said.
"And I don't accept it...Beg me more...I want to see you broken and hurt...And desperate for me to forgive you...Maybe then I will" I said.
"Nong Gulf stop" Aunt Fern said.
"Why should I?...Aren't I the failure son and the messed up criminal?... What's wrong with acting like one huh?...You know what the problem is?...That it was always Type this Type that...No matter how hard I tried it was always Ai Type who came first for you...Ai Type got good grades let's threw him a party to celebrate...Ai Type got bullied at school why didn't you take care of your brother Ai Gulf?...Ai Type came down with a fever Ai Gulf why did you play at the beach for too long? I told you to take care of your brother...Ai Type got raped Ai Gulf WHY DIDN'T YOU PROTECT YOUR BROTHER?...You treated Ai Type like a fragile perfect son and treated me like shit...Ai Type...It's always Ai Type...He got a perfect life and I got shit...Even though we are twins...Ai Type got raped it's all your fault you shitty son...What crime did I do in my past life to deserve a son like you?...Do you really expect me to forgive you?...I don't blame Ai Type I blame you" I said.
"Nong Gulf please stop talking I understand it's my fault...It's all my fault" He said walking closer to me.
My eyes widened in horror and I took a step back then grabbed a knife from the kitchen counter.
"STAY BACK...GET AWAY FROM ME...I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU COME ANY CLOSER...GET OUT...GET OUT NOW" I screamed and raised the knife up in front of me.
The last thing I saw is the shocked look on his face before everything went black.
