story 1.7
Arthit with a blank eyes approached Kong, who is checking his surroundings with his troubled eyes. He wants to run away but he also knows that it will lead him close to Arthit.
He can't be close to Arthit he is already in deep shit for hiding his memory, so he doesn't want to add more. He gulped when he sense Arthit closeness towards him and clenched his fist tightly controlling his hands from reaching to his stomach.
The earthly scent which used to smooth him suddenly pushing him to surrender, but he stood rebellious.
"You knew!" Arthit states and took his final step to invade Kong's personal space. Kong hangs his head low praying for time to move back so that he can rectify his shameful confession.
"You remember me." Arthit stood stoic with his statement.
"Kongpop!!" His mother high pitched voice echoed around the kitchen. Kongpop mustered his strength and pushed Arthit shoulder before walk pass him to answer his mother.
Soon he reached to his mother side, he sat next to her while his grandmother took his both hands and caressed the palm.
"Would you both stay for a week more or at least till Friday?" The old lady requested them in her weak voice. Both mother and son shake their heads in unison but the pleading from the fragile lady broke their heart.
"We will visit you whenever you want!" Kong tried to reason out after seeing his mother close to giving up. "Doctor told me, they have to wait for one more week to confirm if the surgery was a success or not, I want to pamper you guys with my love, I don't want regret it if something happens to me!"
"Grandma!"
"Mom!"
Many voices roared for her negative thoughts, she didn't mind and continued, "if John presence is disturbing you both I can make him leave the house till the time you stay, I strongly agree with you that he doesn't even deserve a sight in front of you."
"It's alright mam, I and my son will stay till Friday " she assured the old lady with her sincere smile. Kong released a frustrated sigh and earned a hiss from his mother. He pouted at her before apologizing to his grandma who smiled and patted his head.
Kong noticed Arthit's presence through the corner of his eyes. He plasters himself to his mom side giving no attention to the latter. And he decided to do this for the remaining 4 days too.
But is it possible? His question was answered when he encounter Arthit in his room, standing a little away from him with cold eyes which must be for his avoidance. He stood praying for his mother presence again, but his mother was still in his grandmother room.
He already spends the last three hours in his grandma's room, his mother and grandma continuously going on without a break, he even took a nap, feeling bored by the ladies talk and his mother heart-rending past, he walks back to his room for a night of proper sleep.
But he didn't expect to sight a sharp dark orb which is piercing his skin, sending tingles over his body. Kong found himself in a never escapable situation so he decided to do a thing that could help him to be back to himself. And that is, to confront the latter with lies.
"Yes, I remembered Arthit!"
"Is this why you are avoiding me?"
Kong nodded his head with a sigh. "I am sorry." Kong apologised breaking the tense silence. "For what?" Arthit asked crossing his arms.
"F-for... forcing myself on you...t-that.. night.." Kong gulped and kept his eyes away from Arthit whose curious eyes changed into hurtful ones after hearing kong words. Kong continued,
"I... I had too many drinks.... that I was not myself... I thought---"
"I know you are drunk kongpop, it's not only your mistake, but also mine, losing my sanity and possessed you. I am sorry too." Kong felt a pang on his heart by Arthit apologize.
"But kongpop, it may be for few hours but I liked every moment I spend with you that night, I loved the way we connected like we were born for each other, I like our-..."
Kong stopped Arthit with his harsh lie, "it was a mistake.... misunderstanding ... I thought you are sam."
Arthit whole body went numb by the omega answer. "B-but... I told you I am not.. and you call me as Ar.."
"Arthit, I was drunk! not even myself, I was desperate in needs and most of the things are not from my heart, I thought you are sam. From the next morning till yesterday it was Sam.. only Sam!." Kong lied with a straight face and watched the alpha broke down in hurt.
His omega cursed him in his mind for hurting the sagacious alpha! His stomach clenched, maybe his baby too not agreeing with his decision. Arthit didn't release any sound, he strides out of the room silently keeping his miserable pheromones himself.
Kong blinked his eyes stopping the remorseful tears, he is believing that he will be alright with time passing. Arthit changed his perspective about the alpha, he encounters some of the good alphas in his life like Sam and Ohm, however, no one affected his obstinate judgement against alphas.
He sighed and sat at the bed, he knows he is not being fair, if he decided to give a chance to be with an alpha, it must be with Arthit.
But he is scared of repeating his mother history, what if he too thrown out by Arthit like his mom? What if the family don't like their relationship? Will his mom and step-dad accept Arthit? And what about his status? So many questions popped inside Kong mind which edged him to keep his distance from Arthit.
*******
Kong enjoyed the breeze with his mother in the garden area. "I miss our home!" Kong said with a longing feeling while his mother stroked his hair.
Kong folded his arms on his joined knees before placing his head on it. His mother stood from her chair and went inside to get her phone.
At the same time, Arthit comes to the sight with a wheelchair which is occupied by his grandma. Kong eyes hold the view, he lifts his eyes and stared Arthit with the same longing feelings.
But Arthit desolated eyes were on his grandmother, the latter whispered something at his grandma ears and walks away from them. Kong eyes went glassy while staring at the retreating figure.
The old lady cleared her throat, Kong gulped and smiled at her. He asked about her health before resting his head back at his arms and fixing his eyes on the radiant flowers in the garden.
"How many months?" the old lady asked puzzling kong.
"Huh?" He lifted his head and turning to her in confusion.
His grandma patted her stomach while asking how many months. Kong blood drained, his hand automatically went to his belly protectively.
"I.. i...-.."
"You should not lie to elders!" His grandmother stated with a teasing smile. He blushed a little before asking in his unsure voice, "Mom said to you?"
His grandma shook her head before voice out her thoughts, "No, last night you were talking to yourself in the garden while rubbing your tummy and this morning I heard your mom talking on a phone about morning sickness so I came to the conclusion by myself and you confirmed it right now."
Kong scolded himself for acting without thinking and doing things without caring about his surroundings. He is glad that it is his grandmother, what if it is someone else or worst Arthit! He gulped and nodded his head towards her before telling her that he is still in his early stage. He also requested her to keep it as a secret cause he doesn't want everyone to know.
The old lady gave an assuring nod with an understanding smile. Kong turned back to the flowers with an uneasy feelings. His dread increased by the next question.
"Did Arthit know?" The old lady watched him closely after her question.
Kong balanced himself quickly before keeping his face stoic, "No! Why should he know?"
"Don't you think a father should know about his child?" The lady asked with a chuckle.
"Father? I don't understand grandma?" Kong said hiding his fright while thinking of a way to escape from her, he is not ready to fall for her trap anymore.
"Arthit is the father of your child doesn't he!" His grandma stated with a warm smile. Kong shakes his head waving his head in speed, his whole body vibrated anxiously.
"In the hospital, I didn't hear you but I saw you kissing Arthit." The old lady revelation made Kong went red in embarrassment.
"Arthit used to say to me that he found an omega who took his heart in the first meeting so I have to be strong and get operated to meet his special one." The elder continued her disclosure which bought both misery and bliss inside Kong heart.
"I love my family a lot, but I will not lie that I am little too much flavorful when it comes to Arthit, he is special to me, I was with him from the time he came out to the sunlight."
His grandmother stared at Kong who is looking at his feet instead of her.
"Now, he is heartbroken... his smile which has a miracle to cure my pain is now missing, for the first time after my husband died I feel the pain by his tears, Nannon told me he saw Arthit crying this morning in the terrace."
Kong clenched his fist to control his emotions but his distress oozed out, his sad pheromones came out with his drop of tears. He silently sat without answering her.
"I don't know what is happening? or what kind of relationship you both are in? But kongpop could you talk with him? Even if he is in fault would you talk with him, he will listen and change himself!"
Kong's eyes welled up more, cause he could see how much his grandma adore and aware about Arthit character, and how could she came to the conclusion that it must be him who has to talk?
But the bugging thing is, how calm she is about the whole information. Unluckily, his mother walks to them before he answering, Kong pleaded with his eyes at his grandma to not talk about this. Once his mother and his grandma engaged in a heated topic he shoos away from the place.
2 days later:
Although Kong and Arthit are in the same place it suddenly feels so hard for Kong to get a glimpse of Arthit sparkling face.
Kong doesn't even know why he is sulking. He slowly walks to his mother who is trying to make conversation in sign language with Arthit mother. He spends his last 2 days being in room and only came out to check his grandma. But today is an exception, he suddenly having an urge of seeing Arthit.
He is happy that his grandmother prohibits his biological dad from entering the home until their stay. The last thing he wants is facing that heartless man in every corner.
His eyes once again unwillingly searched for Arthit who is nowhere to be found. Before he sits on the sofa next to his mother she stood from the sofa with wide eyes. She clutched the phone tightly in her hands before running to the door without saying anything to anyone.
She smiled widely when she spotted her husband waving his hand from outside the gate. She jumped the steps and runs to the gate. Once the security opened it she moves forward to hug him.
Her husband moves back with her in his arms hiding their view from the security. He leaned on the wall and make his wife enjoy his scent.
He rubbed her back with a chuckle when she was reluctant to break free from the hug. Kong stepped out of the gate with a smile and walks to them at his slow pace keeping his smile.
His father pulled him to his chest while wrapping his arms around Kong shoulders. "What are you doing here?" Kong mother asked while intertwined her hands with him.
"Why? are not you happy?" He asked with raised eyebrows, his aura tells how jealous he is. She just laughed in a teasing manner and that makes his husband more frenzy.
Kong hissed at his mother and enquired about his dad sudden visit. Kong stepfather explained that he came to the city to give a seminar and because it's been more than a week since he sees him he decided to visit. Kong nodded his head with a teasing smile, his father blushed when his mother blatantly sulked for him to not miss her.
But he got angered when his wife suddenly mentioned to him that maybe she should extend her stay. Kong shakes his head with a chuckle, his mom is always like that, stirring his dad and dive in his misery pool for the fun.
Kong gives a deaf ear to his parents bickering while enjoying his dad warmth. His stepfather noticed his son distress so he bid his goodbye to his wife who is annoying him up. He pulled his arms from his son and asked him to turn around. Kong did like his dad said giving his parents privacy.
He can hear the sloppiness from the kisses and possessive growl from his father. Kong suddenly wonder his step dad release the dominant aura he always see in alphas?
He turned and laughed happily seeing his dad redden look with a sheepish smile. His stepfather stroked his son's hair and asked him how his health is? Kong assured his dad that so far he is doing fine and has no severe sickness.
His stepfather smiled and waited for his son to open himself out. Since he is himself an omega he knows how hard is to open up the insecurities, so he waited patiently while leaning against the compound wall with his arms on Kong shoulders.
Kong lay his head on his dad's shoulders before throwing his question. "Dad... About your past... Why did you divorce your alpha?"
The question startled his father who stiffened for a moment, his children know about Mia past but never his and he keeps it that way but seeing his son asking even after knowing his dislike of opening up his past is alerting him.
He gave up for his son and voice out his past to him. "I ..... It's.... he cheated on me... but... it's not his intention."
Kong moves close to his dad and holds his father free arms giving his strength for his step dad to continue. "It's an arranged marriage, although my family is not wealthy like them they never mistreated me, especially his parents they treated me like their son, after I lose my parents I got more close with them."
"But as much as I loved his parents I can't do the same with my husband, I tried, I know he too, but we both didn't feel the emotions, we spent our two years of marriage as friends.. just friends not even best friends. we took the next step thinking maybe this will make us close... However, nothing changed, the hollow feelings were still there and we both ignored believing it will fade away soon..... My world turned upside down that evening, He said he was drunk one night and mistakenly did it with a girl and she got pregnant now."
Kong father released a bitter chuckle before continuing while kong rubbed his father palm. "The day he confessed about his cheat is the same day I found I was pregnant."
"I divorced him, he begged me to not leave him, I didn't care... I was almost lost to his parents pleading but the thought of him cheating again crossed my mind, which makes me numb to his parent's tears. I walk away completely not even telling I am having his part of the soul."
Kong listened to his dad words silently and thanked his dad after he finished him for opening up. "Dad I.."
Kong words were cut by his dad, "If you want to know how was my past? I will say 'Loveless', we both believed we will eventually love each other, 3 years we both tried and end up with harm, we both had no courage to face the truth. But with your mom, I feel she is my destiny, I didn't see her gender, I fall for her soul, Do you know what your mom said when I proposed to her?"
Kong shake his head suddenly getting more curious leaning his head back watching his dad face which is beaming, "she said, 'You may not find me enough!'" Kong furrows with muddled eyes, his father chuckled," she is talking about my needs!"
Kong reds lightly and hangs his head back on his dad's shoulders. "It took me 3 months to persuade her to date me and 1 year to convince her to marry me, I was persistent cause I feel the love with your mother. So kong dear see the love not the gender, just because some alphas are being beast and misusing their power doesn't mean all are."
Kong nodded his head and placed his palm on his stomach, "If you are fearing your baby will be mistreated by your partner I assure you we will look into the best man for you, who will accept you with your baby."
"I think... I found someone dad... he is also having feelings for me... but I am scared about his loyalty towards his family and.... something else too." Kong said in fear what if one-day Arthit leave him for his family.
"Are you sure about his feelings?"
"I think so.."
"No! First sure of his feelings kongpop, if he is faithful and sincere then he will fight for you and face any storm while holding your hands tightly."
Kong smiled thinly with an consent nod. When his dad asked who is the person and where is he? kong refused to answer saying he will deal with him and when the time comes he will introduce him.
"By the way son, Just because you are pregnant by an unknown person doesn't make you wrong so don't step back, date many people and choose wisely." His dad advised him with a thought of his son may hesitating to date just because he is pregnant.
Kong gulped when his dad continued, "Mistakes happen, do you know I was not a naïve kid during my adolescence like you all guys think, I dated and did many hooks up before marriage!" His dad revealed his secret past which he hides from his wife with a wink for his son to not feel insecure.
But his son crooked smile didn't sit well with him, oh god! How did he forget his son is pregnant with killer mood swings. He gulped and pleaded with his son with his 50 years old puppy face. Kong and his omega jumped inside cause this is enough for them to make his dad to convince his mother when the time comes.
His father quickly changed the topic by mentioning the best gynaecologist in their surroundings. Kong reassured his dad that he will visit the hospital once he goes back on Friday.
His dad got surprised by the news of their return cause his wife informed him they will be back home next Monday and that's why he allowed his daughter to go on a trip with her soon to be finance. He gulped and moved fast to his car after explaining to kong that he has to get his sister back and correct their home.
*********
Kong sneaked his head out and check the corridor for the nth time. He pouted kicking his feet without any sound. It's 11clk in the night, everyone in the home already went to sleep.
However, kong can't, he feel sleep will not come to him until he confesses to Arthit so he is waiting for the latter to show up. He is damn sure that this is the time Arthit will come out of his grandma's room to refill the water and do a check on the house.
For the past 3 nights, sleep is not good for kong so he paced around the room or read books until exhaustion took him, not disturbing his mom. First night when he heard a footstep he got creepy but when the smell hits him he calmed and stared at the door longingly while inhaling the fragrance until the shadow leaves his door.
His eyes sparkled and his body reacted speedily, he moves out of his door closing it softly not startling his mother, although he make sure his mother get good sleep by mixing the sleeping pills in her milk.
Arthit almost bumped on kong but flinched back in startled by kong sudden appearance. Kong happy bubble faded away when he didn't receive the desired response from Arthit who stared him with creased forehead.
And kong jaw dropped in disbelief when Arthit walk pass him without any acknowledgement. He silently followed Arthit to the kitchen.
Kong smiled shyly while scrubbing his fingers on the kitchen counter, "I need a walk." Kong said in his velvet voice with a blush. The dusk atmosphere, closeness and what will gonna happen next is making kong curl into a shy ball.
But his shy smile changed into pout by arthit answer. "I am sorry kongpop, but without a guard, you can't take a walk alone in the street."
Kong pout enlarged when Arthit didn't spare him a glance busy with the kettle. "I need a walk." This time kong conveyed little firmly.
Arthit released a sigh before he stops pouring the warm water into his bottle. "Okay, I will ask the guard to keep a needed distance, I am afraid I can't help more!" Arthit said and wondered why suddenly the omega who rejected him harshly and acted distant for the past 2 days showing longing eyes and not so innocent signal to him from the morning.
Kong got flabbergasted, at the same time anger too that Arthit is not seeing his effort. Losing his cool he stepped little forward before holding Arthit sleeves, "Arthit." Kong stared at Arthit while pointing himself with his free hand.
"I. Need. A. Walk... With.You." He stressed his every word slow and steady with his annoyed voice and point his finger at Arthit chest at the end. Arthit can't help but warm up for a moment before balancing himself with a cough.
"I....I.."
Kong didn't allowed Arthit to talk back he tugged his sleeves forceful dragging the latter to step forward.
