Life without Palm is boring
To be more precise , life without Palm is boring at the moment where the fight takes place , the security department has come in because they found the perpetrator in the room. Pum and the other three students were expelled and blacklisted by the school due to a mysterious force called 'Kiattakulmaetee'. But it wasn't over , as his mother tried to solve Palm's problem and let him stay for a week.
Mom's lawyer did his best to make the deal. In fact , he did nothing wrong when , from the surveillance camera position , everything Palm di was to protect his friend. But Pum's parents deliberately provoked them by repeatedly denouncing and insulting them in order to get Palm out of school. In the end , however , it was easily resolve. Neungdiao could still hear swimming every night , but he didn't dare to come out to see him
"Is mom okay?"
One morning after Pum was expelled , the atmosphere changed. His mother also come home more often and on time . At first he thought his mother was upset with him , but ybe he was wrong. The small world of this family is too complicated
"It's okay."
One morning after Pum was expelled , the atmosphere changed. His mother also came home more often and on time. At first he thought his mother was upset with him , but maybe he was wrong. The small world of this family is too complicated
"It's okay."
"Uncle Chanon said she was being watched."
She immediately turned her gaze to the driver who was standing in a corner of the house. He was shaking his head slightly but she still responded
"Some have stopped , some have not." Finally my mother replied in a weak voice "Who do you think does?"
The respondent held up a towel to wipe his mouth , silently shaking his head. "How is Chopper at school , are you two still playing together?"
"Why do you ask that? What's wrong?"
"Answer me first."
"It's normal. We're in different classes so we dont talk very much." Nuengdiao remembered his eyes staring at Ben , should he tell his mother?
"I want to hand over the Poipet casino to Supakit. He told me that he wanted to manage some business. It's also far away so i can't run back and forth."
She said that the faimly has several casinos in Cambodia , which can make very good profits but the management is quite tiring. A black business can be said to be not easy to manage is normal
Nuengdiao was about to ask something but his mother interrupted , got up to go to work and told Chanon to watch over Nuengdiao when Palm was out of school
"Why is you face so tense?"
Ben was the first to talk to him when he arrived at school. Nuengdiao didn't go straight to class but to the music room. This led him to dicover that Ben had helped him remove all the cursed papers from him as if nothing happened He was jealous of Bens smile because he always looked so fond of life. He wanted to be born like a normal person , without expectations or pressure from the other side.
"This world is heavy."
Nuengdiao said. He was too tired to be close to people , much less in the moof to play the piano or do anything else. He picked up the phone , turned on the music , and plunged himself into a new world where no one was bothering him right now.
"If you're feeling too heavy , i'll take it upon you."
The music Nuengdiao's ears disappeared. Ben lenaed to the left and put it on. The 2 of them sat together on the stage performing. The boy's smile was calm but steady. Neugndiao turned to look at Ben , the pent up emotion in his heart aroused
"Can i lean on you?"
"Okay. Ben smiled
"3...2...1"
Ben slowly counted down and took advantage of the last moment reaching out with his left hand and resting his head on his shoulder . The touch was strangely soft in the midst of the cruelty of life. It was af eeling he had never had. It hadn't been long since he'd really leaned on someone's shoulder
Nuengdiao couln't hold back tears
Everythign in the world seems to be coming to an end. The image of the son of the villain repeats itself in his mind , interspersed with his father saying he loves him , his mother's alienation , his fists making his mouth full of blood , the widespread pain ,and the guilt of letting Palm be dragged into this spiral. The pain was as heavy as an avalanche on his 18 year old son
Ben didn't know what to do other than touch that hand to comfort him
Nuengdiao hadn't felt much of a hug from a person in his entire life. But the moment Ben pulled him into his lap , he sobbed. Ben just slowly stroked his hair , telling him not to worry. It was in that moment that he realized how much he craved a hug from someone
"You still have me"
It was a reassurance he had never received. This comfort did not come from his parents or anyone else , but from Ben. Nuengdiao doesn't remember how long he borrowed Ben's shoulder to show off his miserable life. It's such a magical time , that it's impossible to tell if it's moving fast or slow. All he could do was say something of appreciation from the bottom of his heart
"Thank you."
.
.
"Im so sorry."
Nuengdiao said briefly as he lenaed over to sit down on the edge of the pool. It was past midnight , and Palm was out swimming again without telling his father. He was sorry for the person in front of him. If it had been here , Palm might have had a better life than this. At least he didn't need to be responsible for 'protecting Neungdiao'
"Nuengdiao"
Seeing him coming , Palm hurriedly swam back into the castle , his face a little troubled "Im sorry"
"What is it?"
It was because of me that Nuengdiao was beaten. If it had been faster , you would't have suffered" Guilt filled his face
"That's why you've been hiding from me for a week Palm?"
I fhe hadn't been impatient and called people over , no one would have been hurt "Im fine."
"Nuengdiao"
"Don't feel bad anymore. It's because Im in a hurry , if i had listened to you in the first place , it wouldn't have been that way?"
"Are you okay?"
"Well , you don't have to be. Bot of us are wrong" Palm was silent for a moment and then grinned
Could he consider this a true friend. Deep in his heart , Nuengdiao pray that the person in front of him will become friends because of true feelings and not because of responsibility and status. For a moment , he suddenly remembered something
"Got any best friend?"
"It used to be , but now there's no contact" Palm replied " So have you ever had a boyfriend?"
"Oh , none"
This person in front of him was a little startled because the question made him cringe. Seeing the other person react like that , Nuengdiao laughed out loud. It was then that Palm sighed as if realizing he had just been teased
"I know you're straight."
"Why did you ask me that?"
"Nothing?" Neungdiao paused and then continued " I like boys , and want to try dating someone in school. Its ok to tell you isn't it?"
Palm's emotion were chaotic. His eyebrows dropped slightly and then he paused "Is it Ben?"
"How do you know?"
"He's the only person you're close to , but i din't expect to be a lover" The voice was a little hoarse "Has Nuengdiao told anyone?"
"Not yet , i just told you. You're not allowed to tell my mother. You are my friend , do not betray me"
"Yes , i won't betray you."
As an indisputable deal. Nueng sees Palm as a friend , he wants Palm to keep a secret for himself
" I swear."
He had let everything like Nuengdiao and Ben's feelings go along so naturally. Actually Ben didn't directly say that he was after Neungdiao but Neungdiao felt it too. So let things happen as usual. At least let him try to live his life to the fullest for once
Ben and Nuengdiao often meet on 5th and 6th at the dance club
WHen Nueng and Ben were together the moment when music took over , Palm kept his distance from afar. Nuengdiao dreamed of becoming a musician , and although he knew that his technique was not so excellent , he still wanted to follow it as a lifelong profession and wanted to continue to study this direction seriously. But all he needed to do was overcome the obstacle in front of him. His mother would never allow himself to do anything but inherit what his father left behind
"You know , you never laugh unless you play the piano"
One night after changing , ben handed hima glass of water. Palm stood across the hall chatting with a girl Nuengdiao used to see at a dance club. They often chatted with each other quite intimately
Hearing Ben call back Nueng was startled to pretend
"I dont know "Neungdiao laughed
"I ran into Chopper the other day and he asked me if i wast dating you." Ben said , his expression poised. In those eyes there was joy that Neungdiao could almost touch , a glow
"Then how did you respond?"
Could he know the easy answer to confirming their nameless relationship "Do mi fa sol la si do"
Ben hummed the melody of the track. An instrumental song. But after listening , Nuengdiao quickly arranged it in his head into chords. It was the first time they heard music in their ears
It doesnt matter what our relationship is
.
.
Every 9 months will celebrate the school's founding. And the lobby of the meeting room is decorated as a luxurious banquet venue. The event is also an opportunity for alumni to enter for free. The activities of the seniors and juniors are to create videos to create atmosphere. Students at this school pay very expensive tuition free so no one will accept the job of performing
"Want to play background music?"
Ben asked as he adjusted the sound to the piano behind the stage , adjacent to the party's speaker "Why waste time running background music?"
Nuengdiao smiled back. As time went on , each relationship between him and Ben also grew. Today the son in a suit , pretending to be a musician , was sent to play for the party. He hides in the shadows and communicates with people through music
"Alright , let me tone it down."
Ben gestured. He was now wearing a complete suit. They pretend to be princes at a secret opera house. This performance is very close to Nuengdiao's dream of becoming a musician. Although this is a secret taht cannot be revealed , it is a great value
"Ok"
His fingers traced the keyboard with appreciation. In this dreamy moment , he chose a chinese song because the soundtrack was a chinese tune. Although it is an old song , it has such a deep meaning that it doese not forget "Dream of The Lake Diep"
"Yesterday's story was like water flowing of the east. It's impossible to keep away from me. How much trouble troubles my heart"
Music give Nuengdiao freedom. He felt light in his heart. No Kiattakulmaetee name follows all the time. At this time , he was a man full of enthusiasm , not troubled by trouble
"The more water you draw , the more it flows. Raising the cup of melancholy pepper is even more lancholy"
Nuengdiao turned his head and glanced at Palm for moment.
He followed him everywhere , and was the faithful bodyguard , the Ben to the piano. The boy's smile was strangely beautiful , like an unfinished painting by the artist
"Two bitter love words. Want to ask a question. Or do you want to pretend to be naive? Knowing more or less is hard to know enough"
The performance stopped at this point because someone sat down next to him. Ben chooses the right time to turn on the background music. the two sat facing each other on the long piano chair
" Do re mi fa sol la si do"
No matter what our Relationship is...
The person in front of him grinned , as beautiful as dream "Also wondering...what is that relationship?"
"So how do you want us?"
Nuengdiao raised his eyebrows slightly , grinning. The other party brought his face closer. His breath was not only taste but life. The man in front of him can touch , not a dream , nor an illusion
Ben and Neungdiao's faces were glued together , 2 lips touching slightly until the distance was zero. Nueng felt like he was freed of so much weight on his shoulders. And ben was the one who took on that heavy world , in a simple and profound way
The music continued to play
Couples who love each other , rela or dream , cant be around. In discrete memory , they are distinct and separate from each other.
Ben smiled back
Heavy footsteps sounded in the distance
The figure of the other man come from afar , only an arm away from them. The two of them automatically separated turning their heads to look back. The room was still empty , the song still humming. The only change was a young man standing with a worried expression on his face
Nuengdiao frowned
Palm glanced around into every possible that other could get in and out of. The weariness in Palm's eyes hadn't subsided , his husky voice said
"Neungdiao , there's a camera here."
