Scarlet POV (September 2020)

  I don’t remember when I fell asleep but I do remember that I was crying. How could he talk to me that way? Doesnt he love me? I don’t understand him, why’d he got mad over silly things? I should not talk to him, because how could he hurt me like that? I texted him anyway, but he do have to be careful the next time.

  Scarlet ; hey! How was your studies?

  Pathum ; it was good why would you ask?

  Scarlet ; because I wanna know.

  Pathum ; whatever.

  Scarlet ; are you mad?

  Pathum ; hmm.

  Scarlet ; I am sorry for bothering you.

  Pathum ; if you wanna make me happy you know what you gotta do.

  Scarlet ; what exactly

  Pathum ; send me that big butt of yours , I am happy to be in your service.

  Scatlet ; omg stop, I just cant stop laughing.

  Pathum ; your butt has so much power isnt it so right? It can change emotions, end wars , make people fell, goodness gracious all hail scarlet’s butt.

  Scarlet ; Pathum you better stop now. I just cant stop laughing you are such a brat!

  Pathum ; scarlet baker, gimme your butt and you shall forever be in peace.

  Scarlet ; whatcha gonna do with it? Hmm?

  Pathum ; oh sweetie you are such an devil arent you ? you know so well what I can do with it? I need you butt so bad.

  Scarlet ; if you want it come and get it .

  Pathum ; I wish that too sweetie but I have to wait , we have wait a bit longer,

  Scarlet ; I know sweetie. You keep up with your studies and we will be able to be together. Just trust in your heart and put your mind into it and keep working we will soon be together. Trust in your self.

  Pathum ; if you were here and if we were together many of our problems would have faded away isnt it so right?

  Scarlet ; that is true sweetie.

  Pathum ; I am so sorry for the way I treated you last night . I was wrong it was my fault. I am sorry . I am really sorry I felt so bad when you fell asleep from crying. I feel so ashamed that I couldn’t treat you right . I am so sorry sweetie I really am.

  Scarlet; just forget about it sweetie. Lets move past it.

  He didn’t moved past it. He kept saying sorry until I begged him to stop. I understand him, he felt bad about what he did but to be honest he didn’t do anything wrong, he was being emotional thats all. I need to understand it. He is worried about me and he cries for me, I must be grateful that I got someone who is worried over me , someone who is willing to do anything just to be with me. Often times I am not grateful I should correct that or else there will always be a regret. It better to have corrected them soon rather than have regrets. After breakfast we drove to grandma’s place.

  She got sick suddenly when we arrived there, since she lives alone it is a risk . we tried to convince her to be with us but she denied. All we can do is visit here and treat her well. At least she allows us to take care of her.

  ‘’ how was things afterwards? are you guys doing well ?’’ she asked me, when my sister and mom dissappeared . they were busy in the kitchen and it was just me and my grandma.

  ‘’ things were fine I guess.’’ I said, I don’t want any troubles so I better not tell her everything that happened after our last visit.

  ‘’ I wanna talk to him . can I ?’’

  ‘’ omg of course you can. Let me ask him.’’ I said and texted pathum he was over the moon that grandma wanted to talk to him. He always loved her , prayed for her and now when he heard she wanna talk he was eagerly ready.

  So we connected via video call.

  He was hiding his face as always

  ‘’ hello handsome show us your face .’’ grandma said a bit loudly laughing. My heart melt seeing grandma’s joy and the child within her.

  If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

  ‘’ thats right mr.handsome show us your face.’’ I supported grandma.

  And he showed his face and we did talked about weather , food, lifestyle and god.

  Later mom joined us and it was a fun banter. We were happy, eventhough sister didn’t talked with him she joined us and it was fun. I’m just glad everyone is enjoying the day. It was pleasant , we talked close to an hour and all he did was hide his face or cover his face, but he did managed to speak few words everytime we asked him questions, it was more like an staring contest , he is too shy to speak.

  ‘’ he is the right person , you have to let them love each other.’’ grandma said to mom who replied

  ‘’ of course I let them talk mama, don’t doubt it.’’

  ‘’ so should you send your regards as well he is a nice boy, a handsome one and most importantly someone who loves his girlfriend and her family. Don’t loose him , he is so precious.’’ she said and both mom and sister to my surprise nodded and agreed to what she said. I agrees too, he is too precious to loose, even though his communication skills are bit weak he still managed to say yes to our call and didn’t bothered to leave us until we were okay, he managed all his anxiety and stress and fears just to make us happy. Of course my boy is too precious.

  ‘’ I never hated him, I just think he need to work on some arena in his life and if he can do so then he will be the perfect match for scarlet.’’ my sister spoke finally breaking the banter.

  ‘’ what arenas are his not good at ?’’ I asked.

  ‘’ like communication and shyness, he is such a shy guy you saw it for yourself that . I needed not to show you. He is shy, he needs to fix that.’’

  ‘’ that is not a reason to abandon him Abigail.’’ I replied

  ‘’ I never said you need to abandon him, but if you can fix those patches maybe then he would fit to be your boyfriend. But nevertheless he is a good guy. I admit I was wrong about him before but yet he could work on them.’’ she said while arranging the table for breakfast .

  ‘’ he is fine. I will fix his issues.’’ I replied.

  There is nothing to fix in him he is already a fixed man, well boy. He is not yet a man but soon he will a young man, I am so proud of him.

  Pathum ; that was embarrasing I should have talked better than that. Shouldnt I ?

  Scarlet ; you were fine sweetie there is nothing wrong with you.

  Pathum ; is your sister mad with me yet? Or is she okay with me?

  Scarlet ; she is fine, don’t worry about her

  Pathum; I know they commented on my shyness. didn’t they?

  Scarlet ; you are just fine , thats all that matter.

  Pathum ; you will be a great mom, because you are too caring and concerned. I am glad my kids, our kids have a mom like you.

  Scarlet ; and I am glad that our kids have a awesome loving dad like you.

  Pathum ; thank you sweetie it is very kind of you .

  Scarlet ; you are very welcome!

  Pathum ; I am so glad I met you, my life couldn’t have been any better

  Scarlet ; I could say the exact same thing.

  Pathum ; I wanna cry

  Scarlet ; you can sweetie.

  Pathum ; Aw you are such a sweetheart you know that?

  Scarlet ; Aww thank you !

  I couldn’t continue talking to him cause grandma got sick afterwards, and we had to hold her well cause she had breathing difficulties, after around 15 minutes of struggling she got well , well and tired so we took her to her bed , while mom was in the room holding her I and sister prayed , we prayed for good health. I got scared that she wouldnt get any better because she struggled so hard. With every coming day She is getting old and weak .

  We stayed till the evening and cooked her dinner . dad came to pick at us 6 . And soon we were on our way home , while on the journey nobody said anything. Nothing. I had a quick shower and got to bed with mazie.

  Scarlet; just got from shower. How is your studies?

  Pathum ; I just finished studying evolution and did some past paper questions MCQ. How about you?

  Scarlet ; that is good . I am proud of you. I am about to sleep , well hey I wont just fall asleep now .

  Pathum; I am sad.

  Scarlet; I am sorry I wont fall asleep I will wait longer.

  Pathum ; no sweetie I am sad about something else.

  Scarlet ; what is it sweetie tell me.

  Pathum; I am so sorry sweetie I am so sorry, I feel so bad about it.

  Scarlet ; sweetie calm down and tell me what is wrong.

  Pathum; this evolution thing.

  Scarlet ; what about it?

  Pathum ; it breaks me to know that you and I don’t share the same opinions about the beginning of the universe. I feel so bad about it, I had mocked about creation in my past way before I met you, I cant just accept the fact we are just made out of sand or by a superficial being. I just cant believe it, please I am sorry I forced myself to believe it but it don’t make sense to me, I am so sorry I feel so bad about it, I just cant do that it breaks my heart to see you alone , I want to support you and be with you I just cant go against you, sweetie I am so sorry I wish I could believe in god as much as you do but naturally it don’t come in me.

  Scarlet ; sweetie it is totally okay to have different opinions don’t feel bad about yourself, you didn’t do anything wrong, please stop saying sorry and feeling guilty . you are not guilty , you are a good boy, if you are guilty of something that is being a good person.

  Pathum ; I am so sorry. I am sad. I just cant hurt you like that , it breaks me.

  Scarlet ; that is okay sweetie. don’t feel bad about it.

  Pathum ; I love you

  Scarlet ; I love you too sweetie.

  Pathum ; please sleep now, rest now and wake up in the morning.
