TONHON CHONLATEE 2
Co-translator : LicHeng23
Chapter 2
After finishing dinner, Chonlathee volunteered to take Thon back to his house. -The house next to his house-
It's
not that he's afraid that Thon will get lost, but that Chon just wants
to spend more time with Thon. They go out enjoying the wind, look at the
trees and birds, then continue talking to each other.
Chonlathee
accidentally discovered another surprising thing about Thon. Apart from
now that he had grown into a handsome figure, there was something wild
mixed in between the beauties, perhaps because of the cigarette that was
stuck in Thon's hand, plus the white smoke that seemed to wrap him
around and then gradually faded, dissolving into the air. But the smell
of the cigarette smoke caused him to choke and had difficulty breathing.
“Huukk ... huukk ....”
“Is this bothering you?”
“A
little. Maybe because I'm not used to the smell of tobacco.” he
replied, covering his nose with his hand. He didn't think Thon would
care about him by immediately throwing hir cigarette on the ground and
even using his feet to step on and put out cigarettes.
“If you don't like it, I won't smoke.”
“I didn't say anything. I just didn't like the smell of tobacco.”
“Well, actually I'm not a smoker either. But all this time, it's pretty boring. So I smoke.”
“P'Thon,
if Phi is bored, can we go out tomorrow? How about going to the
cinema?” Chon immediately took the initiative when he saw Thon again
showing a sad face. He did not like seeing Thon's handsome face turn
sad.
'Why can P'Amp be so calm leaving P'Thon?' He thought.
“Glad to find something to do.”
“Is
phi getting this high playing basketball?” Chonlathee looked to the
side of the person next to him and suddenly thought about what Gam said,
when she said that Thon looked like an electric pole.
“I thought so. But you are very short and your face is cute like a girl.”
“I'm a boy, Phi.” but it looks a bit like a *rhino, he continued to himself.
T/N:
According to the Thai Royal Dictionary, the word "rhinoceros" besides
animals, it also refers to women who act badly and are dishonest. It
stems from the behavior of rhinos during the breeding season. Suddenly
having to fight with each other to be able to show their "nature" The
female who wins will get a male rhino. But if the male rhino is not
interested, then it is decided to die. Because the female rhino will hit
the male rhino until it dies. The behavior of female rhinos in fighting
for "husbands" is used as a term to describe women who often quarrel
because of a, but now that his association is more open, the LGBT
community is also more accepted the term "rhino" is no longer limited to
women. The act of wanting to win someone's heart could be called
"rhino." Here Chon says that he doesn't act like a boy either.
“Chon ... just stay here with me for a moment.”
“Sure, Phi, I'm not in a hurry to go anywhere.” Chonlathee watched the tall man unlocking the modern two-story house.
“Do
you know, Aunt Tai and Mae, they like to enjoy the trees in the back
garden during the day. At night, Phi can smell the sweet and fragrant
scent of flowers and grass filling the room.”
“So how do you get home?”
“I walked. Like this.”
“Aren't you afraid?”
“What should I be afraid of? There's nothing here. I've lived here since I was a kid.”
“Aren't the headlights broken? It's very dark and scary.”
“Is
P'Thon scared? Or is it just teasing me?” He smiled a little. Because
he was not someone who was afraid of ghosts, geckos or cockroaches.
“No, not afraid.”
“But everyone in this area is very scared. Because back then, it was an old grave.”
“Since when do you believe in old boring burial stories. So outdated.”
“When I talked about ghosts, Phi's face turned pale.”
“Please
stop talking. Oh my heart ...! It's all because of you. You have to
take responsibility! Sit here and wait until I finish showering then go
home.”
“Phi's
body is very big but scared of ghosts.” He smiled as he was dragged to
the chair in the house. The lamp was still not on, only a dim light from
outside the house shone, enough for the two of them to see together.
“Shut up.”
“If
Phi is afraid, I might be able to sleep here to accompany Phi?”
Chonlathee didn't know what inspired him, until he finally dared to say
such words calmly. He looked at the silhouette for a moment before
returning to answer his question.
“You're sure it's okay. But what about your clothes?”
“I
can go home first. Our houses are next to each other. Can I borrow a
car?” Cholathee thrust his hand forward, the light was dim enough for
the two of them to see each other's shadow. But Thon had to rely on his
feelings to find the key and give it to Chon.
His
warm hand was accidentally touched lightly, making his heart pound
faster. The car key was already in his hand, but the warmth from the
hand that touched him still remained.
He
turned off Thon's Lexus ES 350 engine until the sound of the engine
completely disappeared. To be honest, a big car like this made him
frustrated and uncomfortable when driving. That's why he chose to drive a
small car. But the smell of the AC mixed with the smell of its pungent
owner straight to his nose, making him feel much more comfortable.
T/N:
Lexus is Toyota's line of luxury vehicles. The Lexus ES350 with its
elegant, beautiful and luxurious design is considered a serious
competitor to the Mercedes E-class, BMW 5 series, or Audi A6.
It
looks like Thon just finished taking a shower, just before Chon came.
His tall body was standing right in front of the door waiting for him.
“Why are you go so long.”
“Did
Phi miss me? I was only away for twenty minutes.” He lifted the hook
that hung his clothes and draped it over his shoulder. Then he gave a
sweet smile to the person who was standing straight there, because at
this moment he was showing a difficult face, a face that was not quite
so friendly and now even more fierce.
Actually Thon doesn't look fierce at all. He's just a little grumpy and impatient.
“Would you like a beer?”
“No,
I feel uncomfortable so I won't drink.” Chonlathee stopped beside his
tall body. He could smell the scent of bath soap coming from Thon's
body.
Right
now he was wearing only pajamas, not a shirt. His chest muscles were
right before his eyes. He could really see it, not through the pictures.
“Get in quickly, dry off and change. If Phi is standing here like this, I'm afraid that Phi will get sick.”
“I'm very healthy, so I won't get sick easily.”
“Better
take care of your health, Phi.” Chonlathee lifted his head and smiled
again but this smile was much deeper than before. He glanced at the
anchor tattoo on his chest before the huge back with long legs entered
step by step into the house and then stopped in the kitchen.
It's
been a long time since he last came to this house. It is also no bigger
than his house. But also not too narrow to make it uncomfortable. This
house looks just right. What's important is this house is the right
place to be able to see someone in their eyes any time.
“Shower and then sleep. You can use the bathroom upstairs. Or down here.”
“OK, then what will Phi do? Drink a beer?”
“No, I won't drink, I don't want to drink alone. I'll get water, do you want?”
“Yes.
Then, I'll take a shower first. Driving is very tiring, I feel like
hurrying to rest.“ Chonlathee put a change of pants to wear tomorrow on
the sofa. Then get ready to step into the bathroom. Before a sound stops
his steps.
“Did you shower while wearing glasses?”
“Ah,
I forgot to wear the glasses.” He was about to take off his glasses.
But it seems the person who put the cup on the kitchen table is faster.
Because only a few steps, he walked over to him and took off the
glasses, then put them on the counter.
His
eyesight was terrible. Without his glasses, he could only see a blurry
picture. So he couldn't see how Thon was looking at him now.
“You
really look like a real girl. If you had breasts plus long hair, I
wouldn't dare argue with it. Very similar.” he not only said that, but
Thon's hand was also placed on his chest.
This is the reason why Chon can feel the summer heat faster. He quickly uses his fastest speed to move his body back a little.
“If Phi said that again, I would be angry.”
“You're angry because ....”
“Because
I'm a boy.” Actually, Chon wasn't angry when he heard Thon say that he
looks like a girl. But there will be real anger if other people touch
him.
When
they were children, they could sleep together, even hug each other, and
kiss each other because they didn't feel anything. But now, Chon is
very sensitive towards Thon. It is better for him to keep Thon away from
he.
“Your friend looks more like a boy than you.”
“If Phi continues to stand there and chat with me, when can I take a shower?”
“...”
Thon saw that his face was always ignorant and irritable.
“All right, take a shower. I'll sit here to watch TV and wait.”
“My bath is long.” Chonlathee couldn't help himself as Thon pushed him into the bathroom.
When bare feet are exposed to moisture on the tile floor, that's also when the bathroom door is closed.
“You smell nice and smell good. You don't need a long shower.”
... It smells good? Does he smell it? What does he mean?
Chonlathee
actually took a long shower like he said before leaving the bathroom in
his pajamas. The older person was sitting in front of the TV, lying a
little with his eyes closed.
He
wasn't sure if Thon was sleeping, but when he stepped closer, Thon
still didn't notice, so Chon thought maybe he was fast asleep. But when
he was about to find a blanket, there was a voice from the person who
still closed his eyes.
“Where are you going?”
“Take the blanket. P'Thon haven't slept yet?”
“I haven't been able to sleep lately.”
“If
Phi doesn't have a good appetite and Phi won't be able to sleep. Phi
shouldn't put your health aside just because of deep sadness for
himself.” he said, then walked over with a smile. While at the dining
table, he was quietly began to observe Thon. After he had eaten a few
pieces, he put down his spoon and said he was full.
“I'll smoke a little, it'll smell a little bit. Can we sleep in the same bed? If not, I won't smoke.”
“Yes, it's okay.” Chon answered and saw the tall figure walk to the second floor of his house.
“I'm going out to smoke a cigarette.”
“Just one stick.”
“Yes, only one.”
Chonlathee
took a leisurely stroll, then sat on the wide bed and watched Thon hold
a cigarette in his hand. He stared at it without blinking, his back
radiating loneliness as if he was thinking about someone.
'I
can be a friend to talk to and help him get rid of his loneliness if he
wants to.' Thought Chon. He still sat waiting for Thon.
A
moment later, the tall body returned to the room, with a lingering
faint smell of smoke. He was also lying on one corner of the large bed
to get ready for bed.
“Can I lie on this side? Or do you want to lie on this side?”
“You can lie there and sleep. You can actually lie down anywhere.”
“Hurry
up and go to bed, Phi. Get enough rest every now and then, so that your
depressed face doesn't show.” He started lying down and pulled a thick
blanket to cover it after the room temperature dropped due to the air
conditioner.
“Thanks. I'm fine. Anyway, nobody's worried about that.”
“There
are still many people who are secretly worried about you, Phi. Aunty
Tai is one of them ...” And so do I. He continued silently.
Chonlathee
lay on the bed, with his back to the older person. He kept his eyes
open and saw that the room light was off. Then he also felt the mattress
sink, proving that P'Thon was already on the bed.
The lingering scent of tobacco mixed with the scent of the shower gel, making his breath stop.
“Have you ever loved someone?”
“Yes, but I'm not really hopeful. Because I know the answer, that person doesn't like me.”
“Doesn't it hurt?”
“No,
I never thought of having him, just wanting to love, show care, and
just comforting him on a day when he was sad was enough.”
“Don't you want you to have the person you love?”
“Let me sleep, good night P'Thon.”
“Good
night.” he closed his eyes tightly, trying to control his own emotions
until the othim voices gradually softened and the atmosphere grew quiet.
He tried to stop himself from looking back at the person who shared the bed with him.
Is
this really happening? The love that he had been keeping secretly, was
now with him. But even though it was as if he was still dreaming, the
man was actually sleeping by his side.
Yet he knew that this thought would never come true.
Chonlathee
couldn't remember when he fell asleep. But when he woke up, the soft
sunlight shone on his whole body. He didn't think the sun would make his
feel this hot. Until he felt his body uncomfortable, until he widened
his eyes.
“Phi ....”
Well
... now he knows the real reason why he feels hot. It's because the man
is lying on his stomach next to him. His hands are outstretched while
hugging him.
He groaned again, annoyed and then tried to push the hand back away.
“P'Thon, wake up!”
“I want to sleep!”
“Your
hands are on my body, Phi ... it's very heavy. I can't lift it. Wake
up. It's day now.” Chonlathee used some of his remaining energy to wake
the big man. Although Thon was still sleepy, he was conscious enough to
let go of his arm.
“I don't want to wake up at all. It's been a long time since I've slept like this.”
“This is pretty good.” Chonlathee interrupted.
“Maybe it's because I feel comfortable here.”
“Or maybe because Phi is tired of the long journey.”
“Yes,
maybe. What time is it?” The long arm that had just hung from his body
was groping on the large bed for his immediately found cell phone.
“It's 10 o'clock. Why are so many missed calls. Amp?”
“Will Phi call him back?” He asked as he prepared to go and give him space. “If Phi wants to do it, I'll come out.”
“No, I won't call him.”
“Okay.”
“Hey, didn't you invite me to watch? Let's hurry and go take a shower, we'll eat at the mall.”
“What are we going to eat?”
“Roasts. I like meat.”
“Okay, but Phi, I forgot to bring my wallet last night. Wait a minute, I'll ask my brother to get my wallet at home.”
“No need. I'll treat you. Don't refuse.”
“Okay then. But later, let me do it too. But when?”
“How about when you help me move? It will be tiring and I will be very hungry. So what will young master Chonlathee give me?”
“Whatever
Phi wants. But now Phi must find glasses to help me first. Without
glasses, I would be as stupid as a drunk. Because of myopia, I can't see
anything.” Chonlathee gently stroked his hair.
Then he smiled at the corner of his mouth at P'Thon before he got up to find him glasses.
“Even though you are sluggish like a drunk, you look cute, Chon.”
