They still live a normal life , cleaning in the morning , going to the restaurant to play music in the evening. The income is also enough to buy a cheap mobile phone.
"Where's Maem?"
A man wearing dark glasses entered the reception. Nuengdiao looked at the clock , it was already ten o'clock in the evening , so it must not be a guest checking in , because the behavior is not very similiar
"I asked you where is Maem?"
The man yelled and slammed his hand on the table , startling him. The loud noise caused Palm , who was standing in the kitchen , to run out and so did his mother
"What are you doing here?" Said the middle aged woman , gesturing for Nuengdiao to get out of the way
"The boss asked me to collect the debt"
"What debt? I've already paid the monthly interest?"
Nuengdiao just listened silently. Although aunt Maem showed no frea , there was a hint of concession in her eyes
"You should know when you borrow money? You can't just pay the interest and not pay the principal. The boss said if you can't pay it back in time , you will have to move somewhere else. And he will sell this hotel."
Nuengdiao swallowed lightly , while Palm just stood listening , observing the situation "Where does that kind of mortgage come from?"
"I'll go to the police"
The man laughed loudly , then his bullet shaped eyes fell
"You think my boss would lend money like that without having any connection to the police? Do you think they'll help?"
"Choose. One is to pay , two to lose this hotel"
Maem stared , glaring so hard that her eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. she gritted her teeth , clenched her fists and trembled slightly
"How much?"
Nuengdiao said , making everyone turn
"What did you say?"
"I asked you how much money. Both principal and interest , total?"
Maem looked at him with inexplicable eyes. Palm also held his hand but Nuengdiao signalled him with determined look
"300.000 bath."
"I only borrowed 100.000 bath!"
The woman slammed her hand on the table , causing the man to immediately pull out his gun. Palm also took the gun from his pocket. The two sides stood facing each other. Everything was so tense that i could hold my breath. Finally Nuengdiao said
"In 30 minutes , go get all the documents coming in. I'll pay 300.000 bath for you."
"Nuengdiao!" Maem exclaimed in surprise
"I Know you were hired to collect debt and i want to take half of it. IF you come abck and get the documents , i will pay you 100.000 bath more. IF not , wiat for you boss to sell the building and you will get no coins at all"
"You think i'm stupid?"
Nuengdiao continued "So you choose. I pay you 300.000 bath , you can take that 100.000. You don't want to risk going to jail , do you?"
He was calm , making a face that wasn't scared at the muzzle of the gun , but in fact his limbs were weak. His hands behind his back trembled , sweat poured out , but he had to stay calm
"If you lie , i will kill you."
The man put the gun away and walked out. Nuengdiao put his hand on his chest and breathed a sigh of relief
"Let's go get the money." Neungdiao said succinctly
He reached into his unopened wallet , which contained a series of ATM cards , the total amount of which was up to millions but could not be withdrawn for fear of revealing information that would lead the police to find his whereabouts. But now he couldn't think of anything
"But..."
"If something happens , we'll be caught too. Better not to make a big deal out of it."
The other party couldn't say anything. Together , they went to a nearby ATM to withdraw from nearly 10 cards. When he returned , the man was already waiting. While counting the money , 2 guns were placed on the table , despite the sarcastic innuendos ringin in the ars. Finally khun Maem also got back to the red book and related documents
Nuengdiao and Palm checked the surveillance camera an turned on the recording to prevent the enemy from tipping over. At least having proof would be better
"I will pay you back slowly"
In the stillness of the night , a hoarse voice spoke softly. Moonlight filtered through the gap in the curtains , illuminating Palm's face. He stared blankly at the picture in front of him. Thinking about what he'd been through. Although this could be the beginning of the end
He looked at his only friend with strange expression , the word duty that his mother said was still etched in his mind. After the man left , he reived a deep thank you from Maem. Since then Palm also asked her about the reason why his father and mother divorced. She just smiled and then reported back. That Palm is the product of two people going overboard with each other , forced to get married. But then they realized they couldn't continue with this binding marriage anymore. Both of them chose to release each other peacefully
"What happen?" Nuengdiao asked
"That 300.000 bath"
Nuengdiao looked into the other person's eyes. Palm was his only remaining hope. Many times , ask himself , does that person know how important he is to someone's life?
"Let's pretend im paying for you"
"What does that mean?"
"Life"
Nuengdiao whispered. The price to pay for life is too high , paying for a lifetime is not enough
"No , im just doing my duty."
"You saved me. Both were well rewarded"
His face slowly approached. Then , muscular arms pulled Nuengdiao to hug him. In the dark space , Palm's voice was liek bright light
"I don't want Nuengdiao to say that"
"Why?"
"I...."
Nuengdiao could feel the fierce inner struggle "One day , you too will have the life you deserve"
"Palm , i don't intend to keep you forever. My life is a curse , you have nothing to do with it. Your father and son have paid enough for me already."
"I never said i was leaving..."
"But that nigh..."
Hw was talking about the facebook photo of him and Makie at the dance club night "Is there something you want to ask?"
"Actually , i have vaguely guessed it , but wanted to ask again."
"Nothing"
The person in his arms was half joking , but when his lips touched his forehead he stopped short. Gentle movements as a word of comfort , but also remove the melancholy clinging to the heart
"Ask me , i'll answer honestly"
"Are you dating Makie?"
Palm smiled softly "No"
Something seemed to flow out of my chest , turning into relaxation.
"We promise to be friends forever."
"Why? You have to be with me 24 hours a day , don't you want a private life?"
"It's not a responsibility. It's just that i already have someone in my heart that i want to be with."
Nuengdiao's heart felt like it was weighed down by something. He was in a state of hesitation , not knowing whether to ask or not. But in the end , he gulped and spoke his self inquiry
"Who is that?"
His body trembled slightly , afraid that after hearing the answer he would not be able to hug anymore
"Nuengdiao..."
"What?"
The repression was gone , Palm whispered in the opposite ear "Im not calling you. Im answering."
A light flashed in Nuengdiao heart
All his life he had longed for this. It's about being special in someone 's heart , not out of obligation. Like family is his soul , the place he can rely on. Palm hugged Nuengdiao tightly , sharing more than warmth , making the heart connect
"Palm"
"Hmm?"
"Do you know what i'm talking about?"
Nuengdiao speaks with the most sincere heart. He had already realized his heart before the kiss in the organ room. Or maybe it was a tight hug on the abandoned building that day or it could be that the two of them spent their days together here. Either way , for now , id didn't matter
"Know!"
The palm of his hand gently stroked his hair , tightening it a little "if i ask..."
"I'll answer."
"I mean will you. be angry?"
"Will not."
In the dark , Neungdiao could not see but could feel Palm smiling. He still buried himself in his lap peacefully
"Do you like boys?"
"I used to think not , but no i'm not sure."
Palm was blunt , pulling Nuengdiao out of his arms and looking him in the eye. The wind blew the curtain , gently swaying , adorning the moment the two looked at each other without leaving
Nuengdiao could feel his heart pounding furiously "But im sure"
Palm's voice disappeared slightly because Nuengdiao blocked it with a kiss. A special emotion drew the two together , they exchanged touch , imbued with bitter sweetness like a seedling growing int he cold wind season , which will be knocked down at any moment. But that can't stop him from ending his life and still clinging to life tenaciously. It is also the feeling that is hidden in the heart waiting to be revealed
"Would Nuengdiao agree , if"
"I agree"
Before he could finish the question , he interrupted. Palm easily turned Nuengdiao's back to him , then reached behind his back and unbuttoned his shirt one bye one. His fingers caressed Nuengdiao skin causing Neugndiao to tilt his head back and hit him lightly. The kiss on the back of the next extends to the shoulders and collarbone
"Did you see the tattoo on my neck?"
Both of their bodies are bare. Palm stretched out his hand to open the curtains to let some light in
"Have"
"Red it up"
"erzi , which means child"
He doesnt know when this tattoo come from , only remembers it when he was a kid. It is like a great expectation from the family. But in reality , it reminded him how incompetent and disappointing he was
Palm gently pressed his lips to the tattoo "But liking men doesn't mean Neugndiao isn't a good guy."
"Khun Tanya also said that she only forced Nuengdiao to do one thing. If nuengdiao's father was still alive , he would think the same. He must be happy to have a son like you."
Tears of the person in his arms flowed down , all the pain followed those tears to the outside. He turned around , meeting warm eyes and arms waiting to embrace him. Their lips touched each other again and again. Moonlight gently shines through the narrow bed , turning it into a dance floor where two people are entwined , swaying to a love song without melody but full of sublimation
"I should think about the person in front of me" Palm smiled
"You said you liked me?"
Nuuengdiao joked first , then let things flow naturally. Its a pleasant sensation , like an enticing whiskey. Several times he stared into Palm's eyes , trembling slightly
"What's wrong with Nuengdiao?"
In the moment two people become one. Sweat trickled down his hair. The boy bit his lip , trying to suppress the sound in his throat. Leaving only the breaths , the rhythms , and the lust spreading
"If i say no , what will you do? Stop?"
Nuengdiao whispered hoarsely. His breath was gasping and trembling , wanting to play a trick but being pocked back. Because he couldn't stand it when he called his name
"Will not."
"But i'll be gentle"
His words were gentle , but his body became more and more violent , making his heart stop beating. Nuengdiao gasped , both hands clutching the bed sheet
"Do you like it?"
He didn't answer , just pursed his lips "Do you like it?"
Palm said as he sped up , choking him with tingly emotions and happiness
"Prefer..."
Finally , the boy agreed to speak. Because lips can't hide anymore
"What do you like?"
'Like all?"
"Does Nuengdiao like me?"
This time Nuengdiao grabbed the pillow in the corner. A feeling of happiness filled his chest. The person being questioned accidentally shouted , unable to say a word. He couldn't resist the lust that was flooding through his body
"Prefer..."
'Who do you like?"
Nuengdiao wanted to go back and punch the crooked guy , but because he was too tired right now , he answered lightly
"Like Palm... Nuengdiao likes Palm the most."
