Milk's P.O.V:

"So...You mean to say that we should talk to Chimon's father? But what if he refuses to talk to us?" I asked.

"We should give it a shot I think that will lead us to know what happened four years ago" Tu said.

"P'Milk we should try" Bright said.

Ohm was unusually silent though so I frowned in confusion.

"What's wrong kid?" My brother asked Ohm.

"Nanon...He must have been there at the time of the accident...I just don't know what happened or how he was involved in this" Ohm said.

Then looked at me.

"He told me once that he fears death more then anything so there must have been something that triggered that fear right?" Ohm asked.

I nodded.

"That could be possible but we won't know for sure" I said.

"That's why we must talk to Chimon's family" Tu repeated.

"If they refuse to meet us then what?" I asked.

"Then...We'll have no choice but to find Chimon's lover" Ohm said.

"But where can we possibly find him?" P'Jimmy asked.

Ohm sighed heavily and shook his head.

"I don't know" He said.

I sighed heavily and facepalmed.

"The three of you should go to college...P'Jimmy and me will take care of Nanon until you guys are back" I said.

Tu and Bright nodded and stood up to leave.

But Ohm suddenly stopped walking.

"What's wrong?" Bright asked him.

"His sister...Nanon said that Chimon had a sister" Ohm said.

"She might be easier to talk to" P'Jimmy said.

I nodded and the three of them left the room.

(Later that night)

Milk's P.O.V:

I sat down on my desk after I was done serving tea to my visitors.

"Sawadee khaa...I know it's strange to ask for a meeting out of the blue but this needs to be handled quickly...I want you to tell me everything about your son...Every single secret no matter how small it is" I said.

Then pushed the tea cups over to them.

"As Chimon's parents you won't let his best friend die like that right?" I asked.

The man looked distressed about something and his wife looked at her feet.

"Our son's death was an unfortunate accident" Chimon's mother said.

"Oh...Of course it is unfortunate...I was just hoping you tell me details about it that's all...Since Nanon seems to still think he's still around" I said.

"That kid wasn't there at the time of the accident" His father said.

I raised an eyebrow in confusion then cleared my throat and nodded.

"Well...Do you want to talk to me about his girlfriend?" I asked.

"What's this? An interrogation? You're not a police officer" Chimon's father said.

I chuckled in disbelief and stood up.

"I might not be an officer but your behaviour is suspicious...You don't seem affected by the current topic at all although we're talking about your only son here...Or is there something I should know about?" I asked.

"There's nothing" Chimon's mother said.

"Then...I don't think there's much to hide about your son's girlfriend right? Who is she?...Where can I find her?" I asked.

"Her name is Gigie and you can't talk to her now because she went to the states a year ago" Chimon's mother said.

"If that's all...Can we go?" Chimon's father asked.

I sighed heavily and brushed my hair back.

"Not yet...I have one more question" I said.

The man sighed heavily.

"What is it?" His wife asked.

"Your daughter...Why didn't she come with you?" I asked.

"She's busy with a project at school" The woman said.

I nodded in understanding.

"Fine" I said.

Then they left.

I sighed heavily and leaned back on my chair.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in" I said.

It was my brother.

"I saw them leaving what did they say?" P'Jimmy asked.

I took a deep breath then nodded to myself.

"They don't seem like normal people...They're hiding something for sure...I think it'd be better to inform the police" I said.

(The next day)

Ohm's P.O.V:

I walked into Nanon's room and sat down.

"Draw something for me" Nanon said.

"What do you want me to draw?" I asked.

He tapped his chin in thought.

"Hmmm...I don't know just improvise" He said shrugging.

I chuckled and shook my head.

"I need to have something to copy" I said.

"Oh come on Ohm...Your skills are improving so fast...You must draw something on your own" He said.

Then put his hands on my shoulders.

"What do you imagine? You must have some sort of inspiration right?" He asked.

I pursed my lips into a thin line and leaned back.

"It doesn't work like that" I said.

"Lack of confidence then?" He asked.

"It might be...I don't have a good imagination so it won't work" I said.

He nodded.

"It's fine if you don't want to do it" He said.

I nodded and layed down next to him.

"You've come a long way in just six months" He said.

"Is that bad?" I asked frowning.

"Of course not...I liked your old self but your new change is better" He said.

"You're talking as if I became a different person" I said.

"Of course you're a brand new person...For starters...You found a hobby for drawing...And you stopped getting into much fights...You changed...But the most important thing is that you were cured from your depression...Don't you like your new self?" He asked.

I smiled and nodded.

"Yes...I like it" I said chuckling.

"No offense but before all of this happened you were a sulky straydog" He said.

"Hey" I retorted.

He chuckled and shook his head.

Then took my hand as we both stared at the ceiling of the hospital room.

"Times changed...Before...I really felt the need to take care of you and save you...But you're doing that for me now...I find it really funny" He said.

Then raised his arm up to the ceiling.

"I guess I'll never get out of this room...My life seems to be stuck in a loop" He said.

I didn't say anything.

"I hate it...I hate everything" He said.

Then turned to look at me.

"I hate how my life seems like it has stopped...The way I briefly gain sanity...But only because I don't have my medication" He continued.

Then turned away and sighed heavily.

"You can go ahead and say it...I'm insane...I can't even make a list of the things that scare me because they're just...Endless" He said.

I sighed heavily and let go of his hand causing him to turn to me with a frown.

"Do you know why fingers have spaces between them?" I asked.

Then sat up and helped him sit up as well.

"What are you doing?" He asked frowning.

I ignored his question and took both his hands in mine.

He blinked twice so I decided to say it.

"It's because they are meant to be filled with another pair" I said.

Then raised our hands.

"Like that" I said smiling.

He smiled and leaned his head on my shoulder.

"You're not crazy...And it's alright if the entire world scares you...The important thing is that you'll be fine in the end I just know because it's you...And because I'll make sure nothing bad happens to you" I said.

"Thank you" He said.

Nanon's P.O.V:

He might be healthy now but I still feel guilty.

Should he even stay with me after all that he went through because of me?

I removed my head away from his shoulder and rested it on his lap instead then closed my eyes.

"Stay" I said.

"Ok" He said.

Then started playing with my hair.

If it wasn't for these brief meetings I'm sure I'd have died in this place a long time ago.

I can't even remember how long has it been since I came back here.

Maybe a month or even two.

But a month is too long.

And I'm running out of time.

"You know about my relapse right?" I asked.

He sighed heavily.

"Yes I do" He said.

"And my unstable withdrawal?" I asked.

"Yes" He said.

"It doesn't matter how long I stay here...As long as any medicine is around me I'd just have it regardless of everyone's efforts" I said.

He didn't say anything so I sighed heavily and opened my eyes.

"Maybe it's my fault...I desperately hung on to life so I didn't notice when I started to go crazy and now...I'm already coughing out blood so I'm not sure if I have much time left" I said.

"Don't say that you'll be alright" He said.

I smiled slightly.

"Do you really believe I still stand a chance?" I asked.

Because I don't believe it.

I might die if I overdose again.

I might have already used up all my luck.

"Ai Ohm...I want to know what it feels like before I die" I said.

Then looked up at him and saw him frowning so I raised a hand to his cheek.

"I want you" I said.
