chapter 12
Arthit side:::
"I am pregnant" krist said with a blank face.
"K-krsit I don't understand" Arthit said with a clear vibration in his voice.
"Do you want to know what I mean? Do you really want to understand?" Krist asked Arthit while crossing his legs to sit comfortably.
"Yes krist I really want!" Arthit said and occupied the place his brother offered for him.
Both sit facing each other, krist took a deep breath after sipping some water from his glass.
"Two days before when I came to meet your friends I got a call from the doctor who treated me before, Do you remember I told you before that I fainted when Keith tortured me and got admitted in the hospital for 3 days and got treatment in my unconscious state".
"That bullshit Keith manipulated my report saying I got treatment for anemic but that's not the truth, he blackmailed the doctor from exposing the truth, using his influence he stopped the doctor son's heart transplanting operation, of course the doctor choose his son"
"I met him, that doctor told me that I have a female organ and I can get pregnant, he said I got my first periods that time and many more shits... about how it works, I asked for the possibility and he told me that I can get pregnant by operation or h-having S-sex"
"I ran away from you all and locked myself in Ray home, I researched about it and find out male pregnancy is happening now a days, I searched the symptoms and matched it with me, reality crush down on me, I know my tummy is not getting big because of the food, and causes of my back pain is not at all for my laziness"
Arthit doesn't know when his tears start flowing from his eyes or when did dizness take over him, all he heard before fainting was krist concerned voice calling out for him, after some minutes Arthit woke up.
He hugged krist tightly after the minute his eyes find him, Once again Ray leaves them alone he doesn't know what is happening between them, he also don't have any idea how Krist got pregnant or by who, so he went out giving them their needed privacy.
Arthit cried harder while krsit tried his best to control his tears, he want to be strong to comfort his brother, Arthit cries echoed the whole room, "I am sorry! I am sorry krsit (sniff).." Arthit apologized to Krist.
Krist were at the verge of losing himself, a single threat, he will burst into cries once again like he was doing for the past 2 days, Arthit pulled away from the hug, with shaking body, and with a panic expression Arthit assured his friend.
"Don't worry krist, don't worry! Kong will take the responsibility, he is not a coward krist, he is a benevolent person who never ran away from his duty, he will love you like i love you and pour his all love to the baby too, he will take care of you both guys with love, let me tell him the good news, he always wanted to have kids, once he knows this I am sure he will be happy, I am sur---sniff...sniff..." Arthit finished with more tears.
Krist who were at verge of breakdown can't control his emotions anymore he also burst out into cries while his fist punched Arthit arms continously, Arthit didn't stop him he deserved it so he allowed krist to punch him. Krist stopped his action and hugged Arthit.
"Krist, don't cry please... sniff ... you are hurting yourself and me, please ... stop it, Kong will not like i---.." Arthit was cut by krist who abruptly jolted away from his brother embrace.
"Stop it Arthit! Just stop it! What are you blabbering? I know this is freaking and a shocking news for you but is it that much that you went insane? Why the hell you are talking about me and Kongpop now? What about you? how you feel over this news" krist asked Arthit who just wiped his tears and averted his eyes.
"Me?! What about me? Ofcourse I am happy even though it freak me out little, it's Kong and your baby so why won't I will be joyful about this, i am the most happiest person in the world, Kong will never leave you alone to struggle in this battle, he will take care of you and make your pain go away trust me his love have that magic, he will marry you and take care of you for your lifetime" Arthit said to krist whose anger is getting raised to the size of the mountain.
"Oh.. really? Then why are you crying? Is it happy tears? why your hands are trembling like there is a ghost in front of you?is it also because of happiness?" Krsit asked in disbelieve and shouted when he received the little nod from Arthit.
"You are selfish Arthit! You are such a selfish ass*** Arthit!! (Sniff)...How could you think about my future when your future is at sake? how could you talk like this? How could you thought I want to be with kongpop? How can you think I want Kongpop to take responsibility? How can you think I need Kongpop to take care of me? Then why the damn did I call you rather than Kongpop huh?..".
"How can I love him when all I feel is shame, guilt and disgusted for him, do you think it's easy to break this wall, Even people don't ask their night stand to take responsibility, I didn't call you to ask for responsibility I called you because I need comfort, I need a clarification because i am deciding for my future, I need a shoulders to lean on while I am facing this hard time"
"I am sorry.. (sniff)..(sniff)" Arthit whispered with a remorse volcano erupted in his heart by his brother words he tried to take krist hand but that latter jerked his hands away.
"How could you damn think about marrying me off with kong? Did you ask me if that's what I want? Don't forget that this is a no feeling mistake Arthit! Do you know how much I controlled my tears earlier? I want to be brave for you! I already cried for the past 2 days Arthit! I have had my enough sobs, I don't want to put this little thing in danger!"
"I am s-so s-sorry... stop it.." Arthit said again.
But krist didn't stop, "Let me ask you one think! Do you really love kongpop? Do you really know him well?.. wait!!" Krist said while blow his nose because of cries, he cursed under his breath "Damn this harmones make me look like a waterfall!"..
"K-krist please stop don't c-cry.." Arthit pleaded at him.
"No Arthit! Hear this, you have to know how much it will hurt me and kongpop when you think like a crappy person.... if you know kongpop well then you might know that damn man will die instead of marrying me who is especially your brother"
"Do you think this baby will make him love me? Or do you think you could make him love me by your commands? Do you think he will love anyone other than you? Then let me enlighten you, from the stories I heard from mom I am assuring you Arthit that guy will never obey your order when it comes to love! Arthit he is a man like us we have our pride! Tell me one thing if you make someone pregnant by mistake will you marry that person?"
"I am sorry" Arthit yelled to krist, he hugged krist and apologized to him continously, "I am sorry... (sniff) ... please sorry that I behaved immature.. you are the one who need console right now.. sorry.. I promise you I will with you until the end and listen and trust whatever your decision is" Arthit declared while Krist just hugged him tightly.
Arthit pulled away from the hug when he heard krist hiccups, he tried to gave water to krist but that latter stopped him by saying 'need to go bathroom', Arthit helped krist who got cramps by the cross legs sitting.
Krist drank his water and leaned on Arthit shoulders with closed eyes, both sat silently next to each other, Arthit held krsit hand tightly while his mind is running wild with thoughts of how he didn't put Krist nor kong feelings before deciding for the new soul sake, Krist broke the silence after some minutes.
"Arthit I want you to be open to me, I want you to talk your thoughts frankly after this, I didn't decided anything until now, although from the symptoms I already predicted I may be pregnant still i had little hope I might not be, but the doctor confirmation report crushed my little hope by saying I am indeed pregnant"
" Arthit, trust me when I say I don't have any intercourse with others than kongpop, it's your kongpop child Arthit, I am not that type of guy who sleep around lot and randomly blame someone"..
"Krist,..." Arthit called his brother name to say he believe him but krist cut him off.
"It's alright Arthit, we need to be more frank before deciding what to do, the doctor asked me to go to ultrasound but I told him I am not ready and will call him once I am fine, Arthit I don't have any feelings towards this baby, I don't feel any connection, frankly everything is new and hard for me to process"
"I don't have any strong feelings towards this baby yet Arthit, mistakes happens but it's not necessary to keep it if it will hurt us, so if you want me to abort it I will do it Arthit, I can't decide because I am confused, it's my child but at the same time its not, I feel wronged.. but you know, I also decided that if you want this baby I will give birth, we have to decide quick Arthit i have less time because the abortion will be perilous with baby growth, moreover,.... what if I start to feel things for the baby then it will hurt me to do it, Now tell me Arthit, what do you think?"
"Furthermore, don't ever think I will love kongpop because of this! I will never do that nor kongpop will, if you want this baby then I will act like a surrogate mother for you guys" krist gave his words to Arthit and waited patiently for the latter to open up.
......... silence filled the room, Krist glanced Arthit and wiped the tears flowing from his eyes, he silently leaned on Arthit shoulders again.
"I am sad krist, not because you are pregnant, I am heart rent because suddenly life seems hard for me, why you and kong have to be in this situation, why I am not like you, why I can't give the child to kong which I dreamed from the start, why didn't the miracle happened in my life to bear kong child's"
"You know if that brat knows I have this miracle with me to get pregnant I am sure he will make me pregnant once every two years, that much that guy love having kid's with me, now that I think of it, kong will not feel happy for you krist, I can tell you he will surely blame himself and try to do something crazy"
"I am scared to even think of kong reaction, few days before I asked him
"kong what will happen if the person you slept with is girl and she got pregnant, you need to take responsibility right?"
"Why I need to P? It's a mistake I was not in my right mind, I can prove it even if she decided to go to court I have my brother for me to support me, No way in hell I will take responsibility for my unconscious mistake P"
"But kong it's your child?"
"So what? May be I will give her a home and money to take care of it if she want to keep it, P I love kids but I can't be happy with them without you, I can't see some else with my child, this is why I am opposing the mom's surrogate idea P, I don't want them to claim me or you in any way!"
This is what he said to me krist, I am foolish to think he will Marry you,
he sacrificed many things for me krist, I didn't say him 'love you' every day like him, I will never show my love in front of others, I not even once fought for us, I gave him more insecure feelings.
Despite everything he still fight for us by putting his hope on my love, when I never expressed how much I loved him until now, he knows me wholeheartedly, he knows my every damn move, so I want to give this child in his hand if possible"
"I feel so sad for you krist, I can't be selfish to ask you to give birth to this child and give it to me, it will not only spoil your future, it will also damage you both physically and mentally, I don't know what are the difficulties it has but I am sure it's not going to be easy"
"Moreover, how would I take the child away after you give birth to that child with so much pain and struggle, what if you start to feel for that child krist, what if your mother instinct take over your heart and yearned the child for yourself, I am scared to take this further and complicate everything, we already in a mess i dont want to make more mess where we cant solve it.
But the funny feelings is I want it, I know I am selfish to say this but I want to see this child, you may already know it is impossible for us get a child with our flesh and blood, but the child you are carrying have both my and kong genes."
Arthit muffled sobs filled the whole room, krist smiles with his tears stained face, " sh... shhh Arthit... it's neither selfish to think like that...nor a sin for you to wish to see the child, may be god pushed us this hard for this baby, its ok, I am ready to struggle and endure the pain for you guys"
"Don't think like I am sacrificing myself for you guys, I am doing this because this pain we are having now is also part of my fault, even if you don't accept it that is the true Arthit, if only I pushed him away the moment he hugged me this might have never happened, or if I didn't take him to the room giving bad idea to him this may also not happened, so many wrongness from me too Arthit"
"So I will accept my consequences gladly. what if you have a sister and she offered to become a surrogate mother for you? Huh.. think it like that Arthit, you may feel better because that's how i think myself"
"You are right may be as the time goes i might start to have emotions for the baby but even if I am not pregnant don't I have rights to have emotion for your child, I am the baby's uncle Arthit and will be until the end, I am not a saint Arthit, I have feelings too and I will not exchange it for this mistake so someone will be there to accept me for who I am, I will sure get married in future, I am alright Arthit, let's keep this baby, once after I give birth to the baby you and kong will be the baby parents"
Both smiled with tears, they both overwhelmed by each other words, they both just silently lean against each other giving invisible support to process the situation. Suddenly krist phone ringed showing 'Mom'.
Arthit answered it..
Hello..(arthit put the call on speaker)
Krist?
Arthit, mom!
Why are you answering krist phone? Are you with him? Why is your phone is switched off for the past hours? Did you guys planned to made me worried to sick?
(Krist chuckled causing Arthit to smile also..) sorry I forget to put it in charge, yes I came to visit krist in Ray home..
What happened Arthit? Is krist alright?
Hmm... yes mom I am alright.. (krist answered her).
Really? Then why are you not allowing us to visit you?
Sorry mom, i am in some problem mom, please give me some space.
No! Is it about Keith? Krist I don't know what is your problem, but family needs to stick together to get through hard times dear.
I understand mom, but still I need time, dont worry i now have Arthit mom, not alone anymore.
Ok, your dad is going on a business trip for a week so once after he get back we will come to you, No argument son.
Hmm ok mom.
Krist cut the call and get a sigh from Arthit "Our decision is not enough to keep the baby krist, do you think we can do this?"
"Don't know Arthit but we can't confess the truth to our parents, we have seven days so let's come with a plan to convince them, if God decided for this baby to be born then no can stop it Arthit" krist assured him who shook his head "No Krist, but one will stop! We can convince our parents with our lie but the biggest problem is this child's father"
"I am his father Arthit" krist said in a confusion causing Arthit to smile, "I am talking about his other father krist, Kong, Kongpop suthilack, I am sure as fuck even seven years are not enough for him to bear this" Arthit said with a bitter smile.
"I am scared! I can't persuade him in this one, I can't change his decision if he decided opposite to us, I can't change his heart krist if he decided to oppose it" Arthit said to krist who smirked and said "Then drag him to me if he is too much to handle"
Arthit snorted "how would you tame him even if i can't"
Krist laughed little and said "Trust me this pregnancy harmones gave me so much energy and strength that I can strangle a lion like kongpop in a blink" Arthit just slapped his arm lightly while saying "hey don't mention my finance as a lion"
~~\~~~~~~~~~
Ray who went to home to change his dress came and tried to evasdropes krist conversation by leaning his ear on the door but all he heard was a muffled voices, he sighed and sit outside.
Suddenly his phone ringed "hello who is this?"
"Hi, i am krist brother Arthit's fiancé, Arthit gave your number for emergency.. sorry to bother you but P'arthit phone is switched off, so I called you is everything OK there?"
"Oh.. No problem man... they are fine.. they just throw me out for their so called brother conversation, I am still waiting for them outside, I will told Arthit to call you once they open this door"
"Hmm..OK P, No problem ---- "
Sir are you the one who is with the pregnant patient, .(hmm..yes)... will you please come with me sir...
Kong cut the call, half an hour went by but all he do is replaying the nurse words in his mind, he is terrified by the thought of the nurse mentioning Ray, if it is P'Ray who the nurse was mentioning, who is pregnant?
Kong start to ask various question in his mind, each question bought an unknown fear to kong, loosening the tie kong slammed his head on the table, his mind is not working properly, his body is not Co operating to work, prae is also absent so no one is there to push him to do his work. The alien fear is creeping him out.
Wad entered kong cabin after calling him for 5 times, "hey how many times I am calling you idiot, why are you not picking up?". Kong ignored wad question and asked about his reason for the call. Wad showed him some files to check.
"Enough kong! You are skipping many things, if you are sick go home and rest but if anything is bugging you tell me" wad didn't even finish his sentence properly kong spoked his worry.
"Wad I am worried, No No! I am scared wad, P'arthit said his brother locked up himself for 2 days in his friend home, today earlier he messaged he is going to see his brother but his phone is off til now, you know I still feel guilty towards P'krist so I didn't call him"
"I contacted P'krist friend earlier to get the information, he said they are alright and in talk, I think they are in hospital wad, you know before he hang up the call I heard a nurse voice calling P'Ray giving about pregnant patient details" kong didn't even realised his tears are flowing freely in fear.
"stop it kong, end your sorrow by forgetting that night, your wild thoughts won't stop until you let it go, for God's sake he is a man!" wad said to him while put his hand on kong shoulders.
"Trust me when I told i forgot about that night wad, My mind already got calm, my heart comes to the acceptance that it's just a mistake and it's not a sin to suffer for your life, but the thought of making P'arthit brother pregnant gives me self loathe, it will surely kill me inside wad!"
Wad hugged kong to comfort him while kong just allowed his tears to come more, what wad not expected was to Prae entered with the same painful tears, both guys pulled away and waited for her to open her mouth to explain why is she look like a zombie.
"I a-am... Ren..... he... I.... .. P - pregnant. . I am pregnant" Prae tossed the bomb to them.
Prae side:::
After emptied her stomach in the toilet, she slammed her body on the bed and doze off in tiredness, morning once again nausea hit her and she vomited again.
She moved to the kitchen and drank some milk, she messaged her friends for a sick leave, After some times she start to feel better, but her stomach start to growl again, she thought may be because she didn't have proper meals for the past days she may feels hungry now.
After cooking some dishes and finished it in a blink, she decided to take a nap, when her eyes glance the calendar on side table a realization came over her, she should get her periods last week, she crossed a week but she still not come up with periods.
With a dreadful face she went to the nearby convenience store and buy some kit for the test, when it shows two lines she didn't believed it, she tried again with 2 other different kit but everything shows positive.
She drive her car to the office and confessed the truth to her friends, who got shocked by her revelation. "Abort it" wad said with a blank expression. But he got a silence as a response, he spoke again
"Don't tell me you planned to keep this, if you decide so, I am telling you! You are the biggest fool in the world, I don't know when you changed to be this selfish but don't be anymore Prae, think about your mom once more, just once Prae"
"I know... (sniff) .. I also didn't plan to keep it... just now I find out about this freaking news, I need you guys to calm me not fire me by pointing my mistake because I am already having this nagging feeling in the back of my head which says to not abort the child..(sniff)" Prae said with tears and sit on the couch followed by kong and wad.
"Prae you may think I am bad to suggest this but we have no choice, No one knows this better than you how difficult is to raise a kid without father! You know every damn thing the kid has to go through, so if Ren didn't take responsibility for this then please abort it!" Wad advised his thought to Prae.
"Even if I decided to keep it, I can't ask Ren to take responsibility wad, you know why, he is a married man and will not be single in the future!" Prae said to wad.
Kong who was being silent until now talked "Abort it Prae, if you can't have Ren with you then abort it, I am saying this not as your friend but as a son for your mom, you helped many people until now, you faced 2 most horrible things because of it including this pregnancy, you are a good person so why don't you help your mom by aborting it, she will breakdown Prae I can't imagine how much suffering you have to go through for this in your life".
"Think once again prae, is it worth it to hurt yourself and others! If you still want to keep the baby go discuss it with Ren, confess him everything start from your wrongness until how you fall in love with him, ask for his forgiveness, if he loves you he will forgive you then tell him you are pregnant and get married with him with your mom blessings Prae" kong finished and hugged her lovingly..
Prae kept her mouth shut, "Don't pull that pity face Prae! how can you allow this to happen in the first place? Are you that desp-.." Wad stopped not wanting to hurt his friend anymore. Tears streamed from Prae eyes, "I am sorry, i was not in my mind" She whispered regretting action and blamed her for sleeping with Ren at her ovulation time.
Prae spend her evening with them, when she about to go home, she got a call from beam, hearing the news she runs to beam hospital. "What happened P'beam?".
"Relax Prae, Ren mother was transferred to our hospital for the operation which going to happen in tomorrow, her condition is not good and she is very weak to fight, we have a match for her in our hospital but I doubt because of her condition, she may or may not survive through this surgery".
"I already informed about her condition to her son this afternoon, I know how much you like her that's why I called you to inform this, her visiting hours are already over, By now she even had her seductive so if you want to visit her you can go" Beam told her the things happened in his hospital this afternoon, at first he didn't recognize the guy but when he spot Niya he knows this is the family Prae involved in.
Standing outside the door Prae opened it little and sneaked in before she enter inside locking the door, she asked beam to confirm once again, "P, are you sure she is seductive?", Beam nodded his head. Hearing this Ren mother closed her eyes like she is sleeping.
Prae stood near Ren mother bed and caressed Ren mother hair, "Hi aunt, I am Prae..... who I am to you? I don't know how to name it? Even i wondered on what right I came here to visit you? As a stranger? As your daughter in law for the past days? Or just a person who loves you guys?".
"I am sorry aunt, I know I am an coward to ask this while you are unconscious but I have no choice aunt, I can't face your disappointment and anger, I don't want to see the hate feelings on your eyes which once showed the love".
"It was not my intention to replace your daughter in law place, That day when I saw Ren throbbing sob something nagged me to go help him, I thought I pity him, I thought I am doing this because I am scared to face the consequences for hurting Niya, but the truth is from the start I feel something for Ren".
"I don't know how it happened aunt but the feelings which I don't even know exist in me was get by Ren, I tried to not fall for him but who I am kidding, your son is one full package with charm who everyone wants, but unfortunately your son only loves Niya even when she didn't return his love".
"I thought he will get divorcee and I have a chance, even Niya mother told so but I lost it aunt even before confessing, Niya want him back and your son is in his love from the childhood, how can my few weeks love can beat it. I am sorry but I am really regretting helping your son".
"Because of it I lost my mom aunt, I lost myself while longing for a daughter who I have no rights, I lost Ren who I can't even dreamed of, i lost my dignity by falling for someone else husband" wiping her tears with her scarf she sit in Ren mother bed and continued.
"You have to fight yourself to live aunt, your family needs you, especially Ren he may seems strong but he is not, Now that Niya learn the value of Ren suffering and love she may support him in the future, but still you need to be there for them".
Prae took Ren mother hand and rubbed it her on stomach using it, "It's here aunt, you always asked for from me, Now it's here, it's too early but it's still there aunt, I am ashamed of it, what will I told to others that I got pregnant with someone else husband, I have no guts to do that."
"I already did many sin in this past few weeks aunt let me do it one last time, I am going to abort it, its hurt to kill it, but I can't keep it I am sorry aunt, I don't want to lose my mother who sacrifice her whole life for me, she keep me and gave me a life to live although I didn't born from a love but from her abuse ".
"All I have is her, she is my world so I can't lose her, I can't have Ren so I am going to abort it aunt, I am telling you because at least someone from your family should know this,,... I will pray for you as always aunt". She finished and squeezing Ren mother hand.
Prae leaved Ren mother room, she enter Beam cabin and thanked him who nodes his head. Beam enter Ren mother room and asked to the sleeping figure "So, tell me aunt, shall I call your son?".
Ren mother got startled, she faced Beam with tears stained face, she nodded her head and thanked him, "it's OK mam, I did this not for You or for your family, I did this for prae, I know she will not come to you guys to confess her wrong doings even though it's for your family good, so I created this situation for her to confess and for you to hear, you have a day aunt, talk with your son and try to forgive her if possible".
~~~~~~~~~
Ren came and faced his mother, "Do you know anyone as Prae?" Ren eyes goes wide in shock, he fidgeted in his place, sighing he decided to come clean to his mom, after all its now or never, who knows may be his mom may not survive tomorrow.
........
She caressed Ren cheeks and said "My poor son, why didn't you tell me this before? Why did you suffered alone?" Ren just smiled and kissed his mom forehead, he hugged her tightly for comfort. "Ren, Do you want to know my last wish?".
Ren nodded his head with tears, "Ren, you said you start to feel for Prae, I want you and prae to live together happily in this life" Ren mother said to him.
"But mom she didn't love me---.." Ren was cut by his mother, "she came to see me earlier, she confessed me she loves you lot without knowing I am hearing it. Ren, tomorrow she is about to do something terrible so go to her now and stop her from doing it".
He nodded his head and asked what is that? she didn't told him the truth, but when he was about to leave the room Ren mother asked causing Ren to choke on his own saliva "Did you force yourself on her? or drugged for your desire?".
"No! Never Mom! .. but...... we did it once mom, we were not in our right mind that time" Ren replied to her awkwardly. Leaving from there he head to prae house with a disturbing thoughts of why his mom suddenly asked about his sex life, is it something do with Prae.
Prae opened her house door with Rice bowl in one hand, she tried to close it after seeing him but Ren slammed it to open and entered inside, he saw 2 empty rice bowl in the table.
He glanced prae who unconsciously covered her stomach with her free hand, Ren thoughts runs wild, he start to put together the puzzle when his eyes got the pregnancy kit plastic wrap on the floor next to the dustbin.
He turned to Prae in horror, the girl just stood there while shouting at Ren who is roaming in her house without her permission, she stopped her rant when she saw Ren is not moving and glaring with a mixed emotion.
"Y-you are P - pregnant?" Ren asked to prae who visibly shaken by the question and gulped to avert her eyes.
