(A/N : Before starting the story, I just want to say thank you Lizzsherry . If not for you I wouldn't have published another story.)
...............................................................................
Age -13
" Kong, are you sure you want to stay inside hotel to read ? I think you will enjoy Greece, there are really beautiful sites luuk " His mom asked.
" No Khun mae, I want to stay inside today. I am finding this book really hard to put down. I really want to finish it today itself. " Kong pleaded.
" Ok love, stay safe . Uncle Dave is right opposite to our suite. Call him if you need something. Your Por and I will return very soon. We just want to see a property here before leaving today. "
" We will be back soon. " His father said.
" Sure Khun mae, Khun Por ." Kong replied half looking at text book and half his attention at his parents.
" Mae rak luuk na." His mom mumbled kissing both his cheeks.
" Mae I am not a child, I am 13 right now" Kong complained .
" Yes , you are a big boy now." Kong's father chuckled kissing him on forehead.
" Por, you should be on my side. " Kong whined.
" We both are always by your side only child. " His father smiled.
Kong reimersed himself in the book he was reading. Little did he know it was his last time being kissed by his parents.
His whole life turned upside down in next 5 hours. " Kong...... " Uncle Dave, best friend and business partner of his father came crying.
" What happened Uncle Dave ?"
" Your parents....... " Kong was brought to hospital his parents drew their last breaths in. He was shaken to core by seeing the lifeless bodies that laughed and breathed just five hours ago.
" At least they didn't suffer...." His uncle Dave had said, Kong didn't react hearing that.
Kong didn't shed single tear, didn't shout , didn't speak..... he remained silent. Even when his parents were cremated, when a lawyer read the will telling him his parents were bankrupt leaving him only a house and 50000 baht that he would inherit from his aunt but not before he will turn 18. He didn't even talk when he was dumped in to an orphanage in a remote location of greece.
He just remained silent until he met one Khun Yong Chanagun.
Age-18 years
Kongpob stood infront of the faculty of Engineering, staring at the gear symbol adorning the main gate of the faculty - staring at the gear he wanted on his uniform, pinned to his tie just like his father had. He had dreamt all his life to study in this building ,the faculty where his father studied. He couldn't contain his happiness , his parents would be really proud wherever they were right now.
He was sure to get admission with full scholarship since he had done extremely well in entrance test and his interview for scholarship went pretty good too. He was confident he had aced both test and interview with highest marks........ until a moment ago.
Arthit Rojanapat.... boy that aced the test , man that caused Kong to slide on second place,boy that had beaten him in coding.
The Student that had snatched the scholarship and Kong's chances of getting Computer Science degree too. ARTHIT ROJANAPAT - 16 letters arranged in this particular sequence that Kong will never forget.
" You have opportunity next year Kong. Don't be disheartened. Meanwhile you can attend any class and lab sessions you want, I will sign you a permission slip if you want. How about that? " Professor Thanapat had tried to lift his mood up by offering consolation. Kong didn't want that he was an all or none type of person.
" Thank you Khun. This means so much to me" Kong had smiled.
But Professor did not know it was his last chance. Kong can not join the program next year, it will disrupt his plans. And Kongpob hates it when things does not go by his plans.
He didn't have time like other students. He has things to do, people to prove himself to. He had weight of a legacy on his shoulder to carry on. He was the lost Suthiluck heir. One everyone forgot about. But it will change soon. Kong had it all planned out.
He is not a person to keep whining about things going downhill, that's how it is supposed to be. ' Life is not fair ' he has read this at 10 and completely understood after he turned 13. He will hold to what he is being offered and conquer what he desires because Kongpob Suthiluck deserves best and he knows that.
He was already an accelerated program student since age 11. He will already have a bachelor's degree in economics in his hand in two months. He decided to enroll in accelerated business administration program for his next degree. He will just continue on learning programming the way he learnt until now.... mostly by self study and a little help from professor Thanapat.
'Arthit Rojanapat' Kong wrote on a piece of paper and dropped in the file folder he always carries with him.
Kong took out a small diary from his pocket, one his mother had gifted him to write in the things according to priority so that he will know what he must do first .
" I will." he retraced the letters that had been almost carved in to page such that there were small tears formed in the curved ink marks shaping the letters on the page.
" I will." Kong muttered before walking towards the small garden they had at the centre of campus to gain back his equilibrium .
.............
Kong had to move in to a new dorm room because he was a business student now. He was assigned room in 100 series facing the line 300 series- engineering faculty. Wow could fate be any more cruel? Kong got his answer in the form of 5 by 5 paper glued to the door of his supposed dorm room.
ROOM - 106
KONGPOB SUTHILUCK
ARTHIT ROJANAPAT
Wow! faboulus! fate can be a fucking bitch!
Could it turn any more bad than this?
........................
Arthit
Arthit was an only child, very much doted on by both his parents. It was his first time being this far from home, he was nervous about staying at a University dorm.
He was alloted a room with a business student since all the engineering students were paired already.
Arthit hoped his room partner to be a nice person......
Arthit was unpacking his stuff when his possible room partner barged in and marched straight to his bed falling face first on it. Few minutes later he grunted before drinking water from his bottle and picked up a book to read.
Arthit chose this moment to introduce himself.
" Ummm.... Hi I am Arthit.....Are you Kongpob? "
" Yes" he got one word reply. Arthit still smiled and tried to keep conversation going
" We are roommates. "
" That's what I saw pasted on the door in capitals ."
'Isn't that a given,stupid thing to say Arthit.' Arthit chastised himself before moving towards most safest zone of conversation.... Praise.
" It's nice to meet you Kongpob."
" Really? How so?"
"......!.....".
Arthit was perplexed at his roommate's attitude. Was he doing it wrong? Isn't that how you are supposed to greet new people?
Or does people do things differently at college level ? Or he must have offended his roommate may be? Let's try saying sorry.
" I am sorry Kongpob. "
" What for Arthit ?"
".....!...."
Arthit decided to just shut up and observe how things are done at hostel, he must be doing something wrong for his roommate to behave like this. Did he offend him somehow?
just give up Arthit a major part of his brain was yelling at hi. But Arthit was too stubborn to give up.
" Ummm.... Kongpob " he tried.
" What do you want ?" The brat on the other bed still kept his nose planted firmly in his book.
" Ummm...... I was asking have you had your dinner yet? "
" Why? Will you be hungry if i don't eat?"
"....!...."
" Come straight to the point Arthit. "
' I was only asking because mess will be closed in fifteen minutes. What's up with these big town people? Fine, stay hungry you moron !' Arthit swore in his mind.
Arthit was used to being in close knitted community where everyone knew everyone and cared about each other. He find the behaviour of his roommate a little hard to digest .
Stay positive !
He gave a little shake to his head as if throwing the argument out of his mind and went to have dinner.
On returning his partner was absent from the room. Arthit stayed awake till his eyes allowed him, incase his partner returned late. He didn't even knew when he fell in to dreamworld.
Arthit was jerked up in to semi awake state by the sound as high as trumpets blowing in his ears. Oh! It's 8 am, that's why his alarm was ringing .
It was everyday routine and never in these 19 years had he let his alarm win by waking up at first bell. Still keeping his eyes shut he reached for his alarm kept at the bedside table except it was not there! Still refusing to open his eyes he fumbled around the bed side table and area around pillow. Still nowhere to be found. Did the damned thing grew legs overnight!
Arthit tried to mute the sound by turning on his side and pressing the pillow on his ear and kept searching for the damn alarm, must not let the alarm win. Except he couldn't find it. After 5 minutes he decided his ears are more important than his pride. He rubbed his eyes and sat up only to get hit on his head by something ....... his alarm ! It was hung aiming at his head from a thread that was tied from Arthit's side of window to the door .
Rubbing his temple he snatched the note stuck to alarm .
" Lock the door next time , I don't want to get robbed because of you."
' fucking piece of shit....'
Arthit looked at the door - latched from inside means he must be in here.
" Kongpob !" Arthit yelled enraged searching for Kong in every corner of his room. Kong was nowhere to be found that's when Arthit's gaze fell on Kong's side of window - unlatched, just shut enough to give appearance of being locked from outside.
Arthit opened the window door and peered outside, there was a fucking thick enough to climb on branch of tree reaching to this window. 'So KongMonkeyPob climbed out of this window. '
Arthit vowed to wring the neck of his thrice damned roommate next time when he will see him. No one means no effing person are allowed to disturb his sleep especially not when he was late due to waiting for them.
" Watch your tail .... You freaking jumping jack "
Arthit mumbled under his breath before diving in to the bathroom. He had only twenty minutes to reach his class. Revenges can wait!
