the neighbours
It is nice calm and quiet Saturday evening. But it is not at all quiet in a certain house a little away from the main City area. The house is beautiful with a large garden and a neighborhood which looks green with many trees adorning it's peripheries, a rarerity in the city Hussle bussle. There is loud music coming out of house breaking the apparent calm of the neighborhood..
Arthrit is stuck to speaking to a new guest whom his best friend Earth have invited. Earth and him have been neighbours since they were five years old.
Arthrit still remembers their first encounter very well . He was as usual reading some story books in the garden and daydreaming. His mom was busy entertaining the new neighbours and he was excused to the garden due to his poor social skills .
Suddenly he was very rudely pushed out of his pirate ship adventures and jolted back to reality ..
" Let's play"
No hi hello , no pretend smile, just straight to the point ..
Arthrit didn't know how to get away from this person . So he played.
That was the start, Earth had sensed Arthrits awkwardness and poor social skills from beginning and admired Arthits holding his own ground in any situations.
Their friendship has blossomed more with both of them coming of age and discovering they both liked guys.
Arthrit and Earth have then shared the same experience of coming out to their families . That have sealed their bond more. Arthrit remained a loyal friend to Earth and sadly he could not refuse Earth for anything.
Arthrit first date was fixed by Earth because though Arthit had a secret crush on phana for too long he could have never managed a date with the hot , classy, class topper of their high school.
Arthrit and phana , to everybody's surprise had hit it off quite well. They became steady in quite a short while after a few dates. What phana saw in Arthrit other than his cute face was something everybody started speculating about. But their relationship went very strong. Phana gladly accepted Arthrits all quirks and really seemed to enjoy it.
Earth had started dating Em almost at the same time. Em belonged to the neighbouring high school. They met in an interschool swimming competition and love at first sight happened for both of them.
That was the same time Kong also became part of their gang. He was Em's best friend and a declared Casanova of school. He belonged to a very affluent family and his handsome face and dazzling wealth swarmed the bees to the hive.
Kong was first very sceptical about his best friends affair and tagged along uninvited, to Em's great displeasure to Earth's home party once. That was the day Kong met for the first time Arthit too.
Kong was surprised to say the least. How can normal guys like Earth and phana can even tolerate Arthrit, was his first impression. The way Arthit behaved with phana was a horror show. But phana seemed to dot on the guy and hang onto his every word. Earth seemed to completely ignore the insults thrown at him and poor social skills of the cute face.
Kong totally agreed that the guy was too cute for his own good, but speaking to him was a night mare. He liked Earth though and gave the seal of approval then and there for his best friend.
They started hanging out together and Arthit was mostly dragged to this outing and kept to himself most of the time .
Kong has seen phana and Arthrits affair first hand like Earth. He has seen their relationship and had stayed amazed at the handsome mans persistence in loving the queer ,strange man.
It was a surprise then, when Arthrit broke up with phana when he went abroad to study medicine. Nobody really knew what happened but Arthit had insisted on maintaining no contact with phana.
During the same time, even Earth, Kong and Em had lost contact with the young doctor. He went strangely out of radar after Arthrit broke up with him.
Kong had thus been a constant for some time among the three of them and today also he has come to the house party with a new girl in arms and a new car in parking lot.
His family was rolling in wealth , Kong didn't really need to work. But he loves advertising and marketing. The presenting of a new book or new author for the publication house always thrilled him and he workes extra hard for the newbies Arthit selects .
Kong has to agree Arthit has grown on him through the years, he has come to admire the man's tenacity at maintaining the poor social skills but zeal of work.
Arthrit can select a diamond among the coal and he gets barraged with coals. Kong has started admiring the man's way of dealing with anyone with such bad pr.
Today Kong watched amused as Earth has again set up Arthit on a impromptu date and the man fumbling with his rude awkwardness
Kong is thinking seriously, should he rescue Arthits date from the cold mountain?!.
Earth will never give up . He will continue being the good neighbor and bringing sacrificial lambs for Arthit to chew.
Kong chuckled internally pecked his date on the lips , flattering her with a soft whisper and a compliment, excused himself with an equally charming smile and made his way to Arthit to rescue the poor meat that is his date.
