Arthit was in his room with his friends, trying to finish the group assignment, a rare case study assigned to them...Tay was also there just for company..It had been so long since they got together like this...

They were doing their final year and their schedule was mostly like..

Wards > college > library > sleep ..

And almost no time for each other or themselves, this project was his only excuse to meet them..

Of course they met up during breaks and if they were on the same ward duty in the hospital but it was not the same...

Arthit's friends were his only close mates since he started college..he loved them and understood how much they cared when all of them shifted back to Thailand with him, for him, 5 years ago...

5 years ago...

Arthit had come over for the family reunion feeling so irritable and tired as he had missed the flight and had to reschedule...wat he didn't expect was the gloomy atmosphere which greeted him at his grandparent's house...

Today was supposed to be the beach party, but as he looked out at the beach there seemed to be no sign of any preparation for it...

No one came to greet him..He had met a few people out front but they had just given him a sad smile and greeted him, enquiring about his journey..then giving some excuse they had just walked away...

Something didn't feel right and Arthit couldn't wait to find out..he went to his parent's room and knocked on the door...

His mom opened the door, "Kit ...ur back.." she smiled on seeing him..but her smile didn't reach her eyes, and they had dark circles around them...her hair looked like it had not been groomed for over a day and her voice sounded not her usual bubbly self..

" Wats wrong Mom?" He asked..

"What makes u think something s wrong Kit?" His dad asked..

"I dono, I can just feel it Por..the atmosphere s so gloomy..and our relatives just gave me sad, funeral smiles, Mom looks tired and ur all slumped up..where s Kat and Tuan by the way?"

"Kat s out with her school for a trip..she's not coming.."his mom said..

He nodded waiting for her to finish answering the remaing question, but she didn't.. he looked at his Por, questioningly...

"Come here Kit..he patted the space next to him.."

And kit just sat down not understanding wat was going on..

"We have something to tell u son... but promise u won't breakdown first"

" Why do u sound so serious Por..I promise" he said not wanting to worry his father any further than he already seemed to be..

"Son," his mom said hugging him tightly.."Sing met with an accident two days ago".

"WAT!!" he asked pushing his mom away..

"Where s he ? I want to see him mom..is he hurt badly? How serious is it?" He couldn't stay still he kept fidgeting..

"Calm down son..he's not hurting anymore"

"Wat do u mean by tat ?"he dreaded the reply he would hear..

" He's no more.." his dad said, his voice barely a whisper and tears silently flowing from his eyes..

Arthit's world had ended then..he couldn't remember anything from tat moment....The pain in his heart had been so unbearable tat he shut off all the outside world..His Tuan wouldn't surely leave him like tat...he can't..he can't live without him and the pain was killing him...

He had remained unresponsive to the outside world for months..his parents as a last resort had contacted his friends and begged them to help him come back and with much efforts from them and Tay...he had come back after 6 months..

But he had lost his smile and happiness..nothing tat anyone did ever brought tat to him...after a year he had gotten engaged to Namtarn accepting the lame excuse of a business deal which his uncle offered..he didn't care anymore wat he did..

He plunged into his study full on after shifting to Thailand..The tremendous content and busy schedule of studying to be a doctor helped distract him from his pain and memories...memories of their lovely times and the kisses he stole under the cherry tree..

Until two days ago,when he remembered once again....

He and Tay had gone to pick up Bright,Prem and Knot from the campus dorms where they stayed....Arthit lived in a private condo, distancing himself from the family tat had failed his Tuan..

He had not believed even for a minute tat the sweet kid would be using drugs..His heart ached everytime he thought of how he would have felt standing alone being accused of something he had not done...he never forgave his parents for not protecting him...infact he hadn't spoken to his father since then...

He had just come down from bright's dorm room to start the car while waiting for the others to come down when he walked right into someone holding a box... out of reflex he put his arm around the boy to prevent him from falling...

And he had just stared mesmerized into those eyes, they looked so familiar to another set of golden orbs he was used to...the fear in them, had there been slight recognition? It was gone the next second so he was not sure...those lips, their curves and lines all to familiar...no it can't be...and his eyes moved to his neck past the bobbing
adam's apple and then he saw it peeking near the collar...the tiny mole in the neck which was his favorite spot on his Tuan's neck...

It can't be...he pulled him up to stand and touched him asking " are you alright??"

Then bright and the boys had come down and he had to leave...

He frowned..could there be two people who felt so alike in the world,??

"Wat are u thinking about Arthit?" Knot asked looking concerned..you have been frowning ever since we left the dorm,?"

"Bright, do u know who was tat boy who I bumped into earlier?? He looks kinda familiar" Arthit asked Bright instead of answering Knot's question...

"No I haven't seen him before, must be a new resident..want me to find out? "

Arthit nodded "I want to know anything you can find out about him."

" Wats going on Arthit? You never were interested in anyone before, let alone a boy? Wats special about this one??" Asked Prem suddenly curious about his friend's reaction to the boy..

Tay all along was observing Arthit..he had an idea of wat was happening..tat boy had a startling resemblance to Singto,whom Tay knew from his high-school friendship with Arthit..

"He looks like him..."Arthit said softly, almost a whisper answering Prem's question and confirming Tay's suspicion...

Bright and Knot sat up straighter..

"You mean he looks like....?"they asked in unison..

Arthit nodded not meeting their eyes...

Bright immediately took out his laptop and started typing on it..He was a genius when it came to hacking and if anyone needed any information they just asked him...

Within seconds he looked up and started reciting

"His name is Kongpob Suthiluck, 18 years old..weighs 65 kg, height 176 cm,
Blood type o, permanent address 101, Ratchadamnoen road, Bangkok.. there's no information on his parents..but there's a guardian listed, a mister Khoo Pei Kong of Queens Art gallery, he studies in the dept of fine arts..nominated as the faculty's moon contestant..likes coffee and hates spicy food..friends Em,Rome and a lanky boy called Wad..Rome and ur sister Kat seem to be in the same department..and are also in the moon and star contest with him..he just moved in to share Rome's room in the dorm.. room no 3062"

Arthit had silently absorbed the information then..memorizing every bit of it..why were they so similar??...he silently made a note to talk to Kat about him..

He spoke to Kat tat night and she said he had felt familiar to her but he looked and acted so different from Singto so she didn't probe any deeper .. She said he was a kind and quiet boy..not saying much..but his drawings were really life Like, only he never used colors.....only black and white...while Singto loved colours...

So here he was lost in thought....his mind going back to the black eyed boy who resembled his little golden eyed Tuan so much...he wanted to know him more....Who are you??Why do I feel like I know you ?
