"Are you sure you're alright?"
Tarn asked Phaya who was jogging by his side. At dawn , it took him quite some time to wake Phaya u. It seemed like his buddy had a nightmare. Drops of sweat glistened all over that face
"Umm... I'm okay." Said Phaya before resuming his focus on running
Tarn cast a worried look at Phaya , yet he chose not to probe anymore. That was when their trainer caught them chatting while running. It led to all the fellow soldiers getting punished a few minutes later. Their running hadn't even covered three kilometers.
Damn! What an eagle eye of their trainer!
"Get up! Keep running!"
Tarn gritted his teeth tightly , lifting himself up from the ground to keep on running. Every three kilometers of their running was intervened by punishment in various actions.
The weather was scorching as if it wished to burn everything to the ground. It drenched all the soldiers in sweat like they had just come out from the sea. Fatigue was now clear cut on everyone's face , and all they could do was shout 'Hooyah' in response to their trainer's instructions. The entire day was used up for running uphill and downhill and swimming back to Koh Phra Island as an ecore
Exhaustion took its toll. It put everyone in silence as they made their way back tot he barracks one after another. They completed their errand , had a meal in the canteen , and got ready for bed. Even though Tarn had something to say to Phaya , when he swiveled his gaze only to find that the tall figure had already drifted to sleep. Thus , he collapsed onto the bed and was lost in slumber shortly after
One the following day , all the recruits were tasked with mastering the inflation , maintenance , and portage zodiac boat. Each zodiac weighed three hundred pounds. It took seven crews to carry and operate around the buoys. Moreover , their trainer assigned them another special mission to transport provisions to the opposite shore during the night time
Tarn , Phaya , SIngh , Yai , Khem , Thongthai , and Chart were all on the same team. Despite having conflicts with Chart , they were all able to put aside their personal issues from the mission.
Everybody was tasked with carrying the inflatable boat over the sea rocks.A t first , they were concerned about Singh's health condition , which was unlike the others. However , it turned out that Singh could remain more decisive and sharp minded than everybody else in such a situation. Singh was surprisingly wise. He took the commander's role and strategically planned what needed to be done
At first Chart wasn't very pleased that Singh conducted himself as the team leader , but Singh retorted with a punchline that knocked everyone off the ground , especially aimed at the one who had previously underestimated his ability
"Event though i'm not as strong as the rest of you , my intelligent brain works better. Do you need me to go into detail about the ten degrees i've got?" Said Singh with a serious expression and made a statement with a stern voice "You all must listen to me , so we can save our energy and pass this phase quickly."
Ah... Or is this the trait that made him qualified? Tarn thought
"Do as he said." Phaya remarked
Since they were all left with not many choices , they chose to follow and put their trust in this nerdy guy's hand that everyone previously had back bitten him from his awkward demeanor. Tarn could secretly catch Chart tightly clenching his jaw. He seemed quite embarrassed that he had to yield to Singh's command.
SIGH
That was one who thought highly of himself. After they all sailed to the coast and needed to carry the three hundred pound inflatable boat uphill , they all followed Singh's strategy strictly. The techniques Singh had shared and planned effectively facilitated them. It did not take long to carry this water craft uphill , and now they were carrying it downhill to complete their mission in time
The training kept pushing forward nonstop. And just like everybody else , if any trainee couldn't endure it , they had an option to quit. For those who were too ill to continue would be weeded out , not too become a burden for others. Strangely enough , Singh managed to soldier on right up to this moment.
Regardless of how astounding they were , no one said a word. Assuming it must have been Singh's brainy brain that got him through all these gruesome training sessions
SPALSH! SPLASH! SPLASH!
Tarn scooped water in his water bowl , poured it on himself repeatedly , and took soap to rub against his body. Both eyes fixated on the one of his side with the uncovered torso just like him. Well , here's the honest truth , he wasn't gay. He just simply admired the chiseled body of his buddy. That's all , really!
Phaya did have such a sculptural body , regardless of the uneven skin from training under the blazing sun. Still , it could do not harm to Phaya's heart throbbing charm .
"Tarn..."
Yai tried hard to suppress his voice after noticing his little brother was inappropriately eying to Phaya. Phaya laughed as he was well aware of being stared at all the time. It felt strange at first , but he grew accustomed to it over time. Tarn just laid his eye on him , but nothing more obscene , so Phaya didn't think much of it. Yai restrained his little boy
"You keep staring at him every single day that he starts to erode."
Why keep staring? All the men have everything the other men have , don't they?
"I don't see him erode anywhere." Retorted Tarn
Those eyes roamed on that full , puffing muscular body and compared it to himself. Well it's true he also had one like Phaya's but still a far cry from the oozingly charming one like Phaya's
"You're drooling."311Please respect copyright.PENANAVp59mL1JzZ
"Phi Yai , just bathe , will you? even Phaya din't complain about it. Right , Phaya?"
Phaya feigned a thoughtful face and gave teasing smile
"...No matter how i say , you'll never stop your shameless leer at him , won't you?"
TAP - TAP
Phaya reached out to slap Tarn in the face. Did Phaya just slap him? No , it was more like a caress , a very soft , gentle , and tender touch
"I'm off now. Finish your bath quickly." Phaya said light heartedly as he gave Tarn a soft grip on the shoulder and walked right past him out of the bathroom
Tarn was left petrified with a pounding heart. He lifted his hand to touch his own cheek , the same side that had been touched by Phaya and slid it down to his shoulder.
Or am i really gay? Why did i have to blush red to Phaya? Tsk... Does my face need to burn by that touch? But... Should i continue bathing? Never want the trace of his touch to be washed away at all. This is the very first time we touched with full attention.
SPALSH !
"GAG! Phi Yai!"
How could you splash the water on me? My face swamped , and it got me choked up water. Hey! What about the trace of Phaya's touch? Tarn raised his hand to fele his cheek. With the side of the drenched face like this , the trail of Phaya's hand would have dissolved into the water. Phi Yai! You asshole brother! You burst my dreamy bubble!
