A/N
This will be the longest chapter, so I hope you can stay with me until the end.
Here we go!!
================================================================================
Author POV
Type is currently lying on the hospital bed, being treated by his doctor and two other nurses.
Tharn is still shocked and devastated looking at the unconscious Type. At first, he didn't want to let go of his hand, but the doctor insisted that he needed to for them to treat him properly in the end. Tharn comply.
They are all now situated outside the ICU room. Type was transferred here after being examined in the hospital's emergency room. As per the doctor's last update, his vitals are tanking. His blood pleasure was low, so they had to put him in the ICU for close monitoring.
For Tharn, All the memories after Type's accident are like happening all over again. Tharn is just walking back in forth outside the door, restlessly waiting for any latest update on Type.
All of Type's family member is here too. So as Tharn's father, who just got here on his flight from Hongkong. He immediately went home when he heard what had happened. Thorn is also on the way to Thailand from the US. He was also devastated hearing what happened to Type. Mild, Saint, Long, and Fiat are here too.
All of them are so worried about Type.
Tharn suddenly stopped walking and approached his mom.
"Mom!! How. Why didn't Type tell me about this? And again? did I hear him right? he said? I don't understand. what again." Tharn confusingly asked Layla.
"Son, Type doesn't want to tell you because he was afraid of what will be your reaction. He doesn't want to hurt you again after what happened to him last time. He knows how devastated you were when he nearly died from that accident. He doesn't want to put you into that situation where your life will stop again just because of him. Type loves you so much, Son, that he is willing to hide all this pain just to ensure you are happy. Again. Because Type is a cancer survivor. Eight years ago. He was diagnosed with Acute lymphocytic leukemia when he was just ten years old after two years of non-stop treatment. Thankfully that time, he just staged 2. So the recovery for ALL is more hopeful, and Yes!! After two years, he survives. We all thought that he was finally okay. But he still has to do some health maintenance and precaution. This is why his brother was so overly protective over him. We nearly lost him, Son. We are glad when he survives. but..." Layla could not finish her words anymore cause she started to cry again
Type's dad who saw it. He decided that he would have to finish what her wife got to say.
"But after his last checkup with his doctor after the accident. The one where he is with his brother because you have something to fix for your brother's bar, remember that?? (Tharn nodded) The doctor told him that his cancer had come back. He got Acute lymphocytic leukemia again, but this time, it was more severe. Type is on Stage 4 already, which makes bone marrow transplant is not possible already. We asked the doctor if cancer came back because of the accident, and he told us it was not. The doctor told us that he started to have it again the earlier month before that. Maybe this is why Type is beginning to be so fragile and easy to be tired. He also has symptoms like fatigue, unreasonable bruises, nausea, and others, but knowing My son, he is afraid to notice or acknowledge it. It is also not seen when he was in a coma caused his doctors focused on his brain."
Tharn is so devastated hearing this, but he knows he has to calm down. He can't afford to lose his sanity again. He can't
"So he's been cured before. There is a chance that he will be cured again. Right?" Tharn optimistically asked Type's parents.
Mild and others are just listening to them. As per hearing this, they also want to ask this question.
They're hopefully too.
"RIGHT?" Tharn asked again.
Layla just cried again. At the same time, Type's brother started to cry too.
Mild and the others seemed to understand why and started crying too.
"What?? he going to be okay, right? Like what he said. He beat this thing already before. He can do it again, right?" Tharn asked again
Type's dad sighed deeply before speaking the words that broke Tharn's heart.

"Tharn. The doctor already said that Type only has six months - one year to live."
================================================================================
Tharn is now sitting beside Type's bed, holding his hand and waiting for him to wake up.
Until now, Tharn couldn't wrap up his mind about Type's condition that the love of his life only has less than a year to live.
How can that happen?
He feels like this is just a dream!
The most horrible dream!
They are just starting to be happy. How can this happen?
When he heard earlier about the life span, the doctor gave Type. As expected, Tharn couldn't believe it and started to berserk again, but his dad calmed him down by saying
"SON!! Whether it's six months or one year. How many months or days, don't waste any of it by acting like this again. Go!! Be with him. Don't spend your time crying and questioning why all of this is happening. No one knows why!! All we can do is to continue to live and do what the doctor advises for him. Ask for another opinion. We will go to the US if it's possible. We will do everything, but most importantly. Please continue to support him. Be with him. He needs you now more than ever. It is why he doesn't want to tell you that he is sick. He doesn't want you to cry again, so Son! I ask you this, will you let him protect you like this again if it should be you who should be protecting him? Be his anchor, son!! Be there with him. Don't show him that you are hurt. Don't show him that you are afraid. Show him that you are strong and can accompany him until the end. He may leave you in the end, but at least! You fight together! You held him until the end! Please be strong for him, Son! Be strong and do it for your Type but most importantly, do it for yourself, Son!!"
That's when Tharn realized that his dad was right. Type needs him now more than ever. So he decided that he would stop crying and start to be the strongest person for Type.
Tharn is just looking at Type intently while holding his hand tight.
It was already deep in the evening. Type's family and others are sleeping in the other room. Tharn's dad paid for the two rooms. One is for Type, and one is for their family to rest into.
Tharn is sitting beside his lover's bedside when he notices that Type is slowly opening his eyes.
"Bii, Are you okay now? How are you feeling? Are you having some pain anywhere?" Tharn was about to stand up and call the doctor, but Type stopped him
Type put away the oxygen mask that is in his mouth so he can speak freely
"Boo, where are we?" Type asked him
"We are in the hospital, bio! You fainted!" Tharn said, then went back to his chair
"I'm sorry, boo!" Type suddenly said, which made Tharn shocked as he saw tears starting to fall from his boyfriend's eyes. Tharn immediately caress Type's face to remove those tears
"Why are you sorry, bii! You have nothing to be sorry about. I'm the one who should be sorry to you. I know why you didn't tell me bii. I should have noticed it, bii. Please don't do that again. Don't hide your true feelings. I'm telling you. You don't need to protect me from anything else cause I should be the one doing that for you. I should be the one protecting you. I should be the one taking care of you." Tharn smilingly but tearfully said to tharn.
Type can just smile and let out another tear because of what Tharn said. For how many words are currently running into Type's mind, he cannot pick any word to speak for him to express how happy and grateful he was that he had tharn.
"I promise I will be strong for us bii. I will fight for both of us if you are in pain. Just hold my hand, and I will absorb all of it if you get tired. Hold my hand, and I will give you extra-strength to fight if you are sad. Hold my hand, and I will be your reason to smile if you want to cry. Just hold my hand, and I will lend you my shoulder to cry on if you want to grip on something because of that pain you are into. Just hold my hand, and I will you endure that pain the same as you endure yours. You don't need to be alone for this fight, baby. I will be here for you. No matter how long we have left. I will remain by your side, and I will continue to love you forever." Tharn said and kissed type's hand
Type can just smile at him and pull him for a deep but solemn kiss
"I love you too, Tharn. I will fight this. I won't leave you. I promised. I love you so much!" Type said while looking at tharn's eyes and holding his face near him
Tharn can only let out a smile and say, "Thank you."
================================================================================
Seven months after
Days become weeks; then they become months.
Type is continuing his fight with his cancer with Tharn.
It has become evident that Type is having a hard time as his symptoms become worst.
Waking in the middle of the night every other night until it became every single night. Every night, Type will always scream in pain.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH HUHUHUHU BOOOO IT HURTSSSSSSS" Type is crying in Tharn's arms while Tharn can only silently cry while watching his Type suffer from the pain he is feeling all over his body. For Type's, he feels like his bone has been breaking from the inside.
His screams aren't enough to describe how much pain he is into.
"Here, Princess, drink this." Kengkla immediately runs inside Type's room to hand him his pain meds.
Tharn immediately assisted Type in drinking his meds and water.
"HUHUHUHUHUHU THARN. IT HURT SO MUCH. PLEASE HELP ME! I WANT THIS TO END! PLEASE JUST STOP THIS PAIN AHHHHHHHH" Type continues to scream because of the pain.
His family can only cry outside his room hearing him whimper like that, especially his mom.
All because of the chemotherapy he's been taking, it is no surprise that he is always sick and has Nausea, Diarrhea, and Loss of appetite. He is always weak and tired, has a fever, and even has Mouth sores. His hair also started to fall off, so they decided just to shave it off.
Type is against it at first because he is afraid that Tharn would hate it, but Tharn assures him that no matter what look he may have, he will still love him unconditionally. In the end, he agreed.
He is also becoming so thin, like a paper-like thin, and he starts to feel ashamed of himself and doesn't go out of his room anymore, but again, Tharn assures him that no matter what Type looks like, he would still love him unconditionally.
================================================================================
It's Type's birthday. They are at Tharn Beach Hotel Resort. They had been staying here for a week now cause the doctor said it would be suitable for Type's condition if he were in a new and solemn place.
They chose to stay at the house where they stayed on their last weekend tour. Also, as per Type's request because, he misses this place.
He misses the tranquility of this place.
Exactly the 7th month from where he was diagnosed that he only had six months to one year to live.
They decided to celebrate it because even though Type's body is deteriorating every day. They are still happy that Type surpasses six months.
They are happy celebrating so as Tharn and Type even though he can't walk and stand alone now because he is so weak. He is just sitting on a sofa chair while they are happy watching their families sing and dance together. Type's head is rested on Tharn's shoulder when Type is suddenly taught of something, so he quickly presses Tharn hand, which catches the attention of the man
"What is it, bii?" Tharn asked Type. He thought it was something serious, so he was nervous at first, but when he heard what Type wanted to say, he was relieved.
"b-boo... Can we... sing?" Type asked to Tharn.
Tharn was shocked about it that he looked at Type like he was saying, are you sure?
Type just smiled at him, and he nodded repeatedly.
===========================
Tharn and Type are now in front of everyone.
Type's family.
Tharn's father, His fiance Rhata and Brother Thorn.
Mild, Saint, Lhong, Fiat, and others.
They are all on the verge of crying, looking at these two loving couples in front of them, but they are trying not to.
The music started.
A/N
If you want a good experience with this scene, please play the music and imagine Tharn and Type singing this. You can also watch the youtube video that I attach. This is the scene that I imagine. Type is the girl, and Tharn is the guy.
You can also search for it on youtube or Spotify if you are using a phone in reading this
Search for I Will Be Here (Original Soundtrack from the movie "Through Night And Day")
Or if you want, you can sing it yourself. I'm sure you already knew this song.
It was effective on me when I tried singing it. It made me cry so much
Please, This song suit this moment.
I also split Tharn and Type part in the song already.
Type looked at Tharn like he was starting to get afraid, so Tharn immediately held Type's hand and looked at him intently, like he was telling him that he was there for him.
Type smiled even though his eyes were on the verge of tears. He doesn't want to show Tharn and His family his sadness
Type
Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I, I will be here
If in the dark, we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause I, I will be here
Tharn
I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to crying
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here
Their family and all of the people around them can't help but cry watching them both. They are afraid of what might happen in the future.
They try their best not to think about everything happening to the couple, but they can't help it, especially when looking at Type's suffering body.
They know how much Type is holding on for them. They know that if it's just Type. he will surely give up now and let go of it all but because of them. Type is fighting even though he is hurting.
Type
Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I, I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change
And lifetimes are made for years
So I, I will be here
Type started to cry, and so as Tharn. He began to feel so afraid, not for himself. Type is so worried for all these people that he loves but most especially for his love.
Tharn!
He wishes this is just a bad dream, and then after a while, he will wake up, and everything will be okay that he is healthy and has so much time in the future with his lover.
Tharn
I will be here
You can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
Type who is so strong started to cry while singing. That made Tharn pull him into a tight hug, and they began to sing together
The people watching them can see how much love these two have for each other. How much pain they are in right now. How much uncertainty their life together. How much they keep on fighting even though destiny itself is against them
Tharn and Type are crying while singing. Mild and Saint are just holding Zee and Kengkla, who was so afraid and hurt for their princess, who they know these two brothers love so much.
Jesdaporn is holding Layla's hand while Warintorn is hugging his wife tight.
They are so hurt seeing their sons like this. They wish they could trade their life for them.
Tharn and Type
I will be true
To the promise I have made
To you and to the one who gave you to me
As sure as seasons are made for change
And lifetimes are made for years
So I, I will be here
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here
Tharn and Type finish the song while holding and feeling each other warmth.
None of them wants to let go.
================================================================================
Days had passed after Type's birthday. His body has become worst, and he is having a hard time sitting up from his bed.
Tharn is the one who will do everything for him, like bathing, watching, reading books, and watching movies together.
They are always together. Tharn never leaves Type's side.
But for some miracle happened that when Type woke up in the afternoon, he suddenly felt energized. (A/N this scenario where cancer patients suddenly became strong days before dying, I experienced this with my grandfather. It still makes me cry while remembering it)
Because of this, Tharn and Type decided to stroll the seashore, and in the end, they went to the peak of the mountain where they went before because Type wanted to watch his favorite thing again there.
"Even for the last time!" Type said to himself. He doesn't have the heart to tell it to tharn because Tharn will sure hate it and be devastated again.
But because Type body is not that strong. Tharn carries him on his back. Tharn just make an instruction for Saint and Lhong to fetch them after sunset
He carried Type's weakling body as they went through the mountain. It was nearly sunset when they arrived.
They came at the right time. Tharn and Type both taught as Type wishes to watch it again.
They both sit again on the bench where they sat before and start be mesmerized again by the beautiful nature in front of them
Type's head is resting on Tharn shoulder while Tharn's left arm is encircled into Type's body and holding type's hand with the other
They both just happily looked at the view in front of them. The beautiful sun which is about to set when Type suddenly spoke
"Tharn, are you still not regretting choosing me?" Type asked tharn but still looking in front
"Of course, bii. I will never regret choosing and loving you. Because of you, I learned many things. First of all, I learned to love. I learned to forgive! Learned to be happy! I learned more things about life! I learned to live bii. That is all because of you. I will always love you." Tharn proudly said to Type.
"I will always love you too, Tharn! Even after death, I will always love you!" Type solemnly said to Tharn as he started to feel his eyes is getting heavy.
"Bii? Are you getting sleepy?" Tharn asked him when he noticed Type's face. His lover just nodded
"But keep talking, boo. I love... Hearing your voice," Type smilingly but strugglingly said to Tharn, Tharn doesn't seem to notice that it still made Tharn smile widely. He then held Type's hand and put it on his chest
"Okay. Tomorrow, if you're still strong like this. If you have this kind of energy again, maybe, we can explore some islands here. because remember, we were sulking at each other when we did the island tour." Tharn can help but smile while remembering it
At the same time, Type's breathing becomes heavy, but he is not telling Tharn cause he enjoys listening to Tharn's cheerful voice.
"Then maybe we can check again with your doctor. Maybe there are some improvements with you cause this is the first after months I have seen you strong like this. Maybe you are okay now. maybe..."
Tharn was still speaking when Type interrupted him
"I love you, Tharn. I love you so much!" Type said
Tharn can't help but smile because of what Type had said to him. Everything felt so surreal like they finally had hope for tomorrow.
Tharn was about to answer him and say how much he loved him too when his lover's hand that was holding his hand suddenly loosened. Type's head started to slide off Tharn's shoulder. Everything stopped at this very second. Tharn's breath started to become shallow.
Tharn was shocked at first, but when he realized what had happened, he slowly pulled Type and made him sit on his lap sideways. He held Type so tight, like he didn't want ever to let go of his love even though he knew that his love had faded away from him forever. He tried to be okay and be strong for his Type. He knows that Type wouldn't want him to panic and lose him again, just like last time.
They both anticipated this and tried to ready both of themselves when this moment finally happened. Tharn tried! He really did!
Tharn looked at him intently. His love looked like he was sleeping peacefully, also wearing a beautiful smile on his face in the arms of his love. He is at peace indeed!
Tharn caressed Type's face using his free hand. He slowly put his mouth into Type's ear and whispered...
"I love you too, Bii! Sleep tight, and I will see you soon! Very soon!"
Tharn continued to caress and hold his lover without realizing his tears started to fall from his eyes.
