Chapter 61 The Current and The Ex

The afternoon sun scorched Asnee's skin, the heat spreading all the way down to his angry heart. He couldn't believe the boyfriend he was eager to meet was KK; someone he had met many times before. He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Kleaw Kla Suwannarat."

KK turned around and was stunned to see Asnee looking at him angrily. He could still feel the sharp pain in his chest caused by Asnee. He grunted, "Asnee?" He turned to look at Santichai. "Asnee, is your ex-boyfriend?"

Santichai mumbled, "How…how do you know him?"

KK said, "He is Tip's fiancé."

Asnee looked at Santichai, then at KK, "The other person on the phone with me is you, isn't it?"

KK said, "Yes…"

Asnee, "I didn't know that the prominent son everyone praised would turn out to be gay."

KK said, "You don't know?" He stared at Asnee. "I'm bisexual. Everyone knows that." He looked at KK. "Since you are Santichai's ex-boyfriend, do you also like men?"

"It's none of your business. At this point, I don't care who you going to tell. I don't care if it's Tip or my mother," Asnee said.

KK needs to take Santichai away from Asnee. He knew that, from the looks of it, he wasn't as handsome as Asnee. The time frame of his relationship with Santichai is not as long as the time frame of Asnee's relationship with Santichai. He suddenly worried that if he didn't take Santichai away from Asnee, he would lose Santichai to Asnee for good. "I don't like to confuse myself with other people's problems," he said. "When you're ready to tell them, you can tell her yourself." He grabbed Santichai's hand. "We go home."

Asnee quickly grabbed KK's hand from Santichai's wrist and pushed KK away from Santichai. He looked at KK and said, "Who said I was his ex-boyfriend? We never broke up. Ai Chai ran away from home."

Santichai pulled himself away from Asnee and said, "Asnee, please stop. Please let me live in peace. I have told you. I give you, my blessing."

Asnee yells, "Who the fuck wants your blessings, eh? You're going home with me today!"

"Don't yell at him," KK said.

Asnee said, "I've already told you that it's none of your business. Since you don't like to get mixed up with other people's affairs, you'd better get lost." He turned to Santichai. "Ai Chai, don't force me to unleash my wrath."

Santichai took a deep breath and exhaled. He said, "Asnee, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made." He looked Asnee in the eyes. "I never regret it. I will never drown myself in your ambiguous river again. This is my answer. I don't care whether you like my answer or not." He walked to KK. "We go home."

Asnee stood blankly watching Santichai help KK to the door. His heart aches and his head begins throbbing. If Santichai was allowed to walk out of that door, he was afraid that he would never see Santichai again. His anger rose and his heart palpitated faster than the ticking second hand on a clock. Now that KK knows that he and Santichai are lovers, KK will do everything possible to prevent Asnee from seeing Santichai again. He rushed forward to push KK against the door and punched KK in the left cheek.

Santichai shouted, "Asnee…" Just as Asnee was about to punch KK, he grabbed Asnee's fist.

Asnee yelled, "Go away!" His left hand pushed Santichai to the ground. He threw a second punch to KK, but KK blocked Ansee's second punch.

KK grabs Asnee's right wrist. He gritted his teeth. "You can hit me any way you want, but you can't hit Santichai." He punched Asnee hard in the stomach. KK and Asnee start fighting.

Santichai got up from the ground, he knew that if Asnee and KK continued to fight, KK would not win against Asnee who had martial arts and boxing training. When Asnee grabbed KK's shirt to throw him to the ground, he rushed over.

Asnee roared, "Chai! Let go!" He snorted angrily. "I will remove any obstacles that stand in our way."

Santichai held on tightly and refused to let go. He shook his head, "No... Asnee...you let KK go."

Hearing Santichai calling KK in such a worried tone only made Asnee angrier inside. When he started hitting KK's left side, he grabbed KK's shirt and pushed Santichai away.

KK knows that if he doesn't fight back and keeps remaining being the bigger man, he'll take more damage from Asnee's punch. He began to block Asnee's fist while swinging his right hand to Asnee's left cheek. His fist hit Asnee's left side. He knees Asnee on his right thigh, which causes Asnee to stumble backwards. He rushed forward, grabbed Asnee by the waist, and pushed Asnee to the ground. Now that he's above Asnee, he starts throwing his punches down.

Asnee raised his hands and blocked KK's fist. He knew he punched KK in the left chest several times, so he punched KK hard on the left chest, causing KK to roll off his stomach. He hurriedly sat up and walked towards KK, who fell to the ground grunting in pain. Asnee began kicking KK on the abdomen.

Santichai rushed forward and pushed Asnee away. He stood in-between Asnee and KK. He said angrily, "Asnee, stop. I have told you; I have told you; we have broken up. No matter what you say today, I will not come back to you again. For ten years, I have known that this relationship between you and me will not go anywhere. So, since our relationship is over, the two of us...should continue our lives by forgetting each other. Let us only remember the good memories and forget the past. Thank you, you still remember that you still think of someone like me. If you want us to go back together, then my answer is not what you want to hear." Santichai's tears finally streamed down his pale cheeks. He looked at Asnee. "Asnee, I said I was tired, I really meant it. Are you tired chasing after the love that no longer exists? "

Asnee said with trembling lips, "You didn't mean it, did you?"

"Every word that comes out of my mouth comes from the heart. You know very well that you and I will never be together," Santichai said, taking Asnee's hand. "Between you and me, there is only desire, not love."

Asnee panted, "You were wrong. You'll regret it."

Santichai said firmly, "I will never regret it."

Hearing Santichai's answer, his anger immediately filled his body. His head began to hum, and suddenly his world fell silent. He could hear nothing but his angry heart groaning dually in his chest. Asnee went mad, and he shouted, "We've known each other all our lives, how can you say it's not love? It must be KK who bewitched you and made you think so. I want you to remember this...today, no matter what you say, you are coming home with me, I don't care what anyone says."

Santichai pushed Asnee back, he said, "Asnee, do you feel hurt?"

"You already know why you're asking," Asnee said.

Santichai said, "Because of the ten years I have been with you, there is not a day that I have not been hurt by the actions of you and your mother."

Asnee shouted frantically, "I did everything I could because I love you. Do you think you're the only one suffering? Are you short-sighted and unable to see the future I'm trying to build for us?" He grabbed Santichai's shirt and his head was throbbing violently. He knew that the angrier he was, the more his head throbbed. He took a few deep breaths and said softly. "Chai...I don't want to argue anymore. You just need to know that everything I do is because I really love you."

Santichai said, "Asnee, you don't love me. You just want me." Santichai pushed Asnee away from him and KK. He helped KK get up. "Asnee, do you understand the meaning of love? Let me tell you what love is. Love: is when you give freely with your heart, without asking for anything in return. Love: It is every step you are willing to take to be with your loved one without regrets. Love: is when you hold the hand of your loved one and walk side by side with him, without worrying about what others say about you. Love: is when you don't leave your loved one behind. You get through hard times together. Love: is when you sit at the table and eat happily with your loved ones." He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his left hand. "Although the food on the table is only Ma Ma plus eggs and fried cabbage." His lips trembled. "So, Asnee...you don't know the meaning of love...that's why I chose him over you."
