I want readers to try listening to the song.
wrong about forever
of
Jeff Bernat
with the song Sunflower
SAMMii
We finished writing the story but just recently heard these two songs.
And I think it fits the story and characters well.
Let's go listen to it.
"Thank you, Miss Kanda. If it weren't for you, I would definitely be in trouble," a young woman's voice spoke up as she shook the other person's hand. To express your feelings of gratitude to the other party. Over the years, she and her family have always received help from the Kanda family. To this day, she and her family are about to move abroad.
with her husband's job The house she used to live in in Thailand was the one Kanda had asked to buy and said it was because of her son who didn't want anyone to stay there. I want to wait for the sun to come back, even though deep in my heart Rungrawee knows that it will be very difficult for her family to come back. Even if there is a chance to come back But I don't know how long 'Mek', the older brother that her son Tawan is close to, will have to wait. But she believes that one day the clouds will understand and move on without waiting for the sun.
"So where did the cloud go?"
“Stay in the room. I refuse to come out at all.” Rungrawee nodded in understanding. She and Kanda understand their feelings well. But there's not much you can do except accept it and let it be. Rung Rawee then decided to say goodbye to Kanda and her husband for the last time. Before walking out...
9 years have passed
“Thank you, Khun Kanda, you are as kind as Rainbow said.”
“Not that much, Khun Kwan.”
Bang!
The sound of the door closing louder than usual startled the two girls who were chatting casually in front of the house. When Kanda knew that the source of the sound was coming from the second floor of the house and it must have been the sound of the door to her room. This caused her to temporarily stop talking to Khun Kwan to see what was wrong with her son who had to shut the door loudly like this.
“What happened, Cloud?”
"Why did you promise not to rent out that house to anyone?" Mek chose to ignore Kanda's question and asked a question instead. Actually, Kanda could guess what was wrong with her son. To be so angry As for the clouds, there is only the sun in that house.
"Uncle Kwan is Auntie Rung's friend and Rung asked her mother to let Uncle Kwan rent that house."
“What if the sun comes back?” Every time Mek asked her this question. She'll try to avoid answering or say she's not sure. But this time, she really couldn't avoid it.
“Mek, you don't have to wait for the sun. Your little one might not come back,” Kanda said as she walked towards her son, hoping to hug and comfort him. But not before she walked in Her son immediately grabbed his backpack and walked down the stairs. But before walking out of the room, Mek had a final word:
"If that's the case, what will you do with that house?"
Kanda was very confident that she herself was not blind and was not imagining it. Before Mek walked out of the room the moment he said that sentence and turned to look at her. Her son's eyes looked hurt. Very disappointed and sad She was sure that Mek thought of Tawan as more than just a close sibling. But she just didn't think that the clouds would feel this much about the sun.
I don't know when her son started having feelings for his younger sibling, but it's been such a long time that Mek hasn't thought about starting over with anyone. He has been waiting for the sun all this time and may continue to wait.
At the inthanin tree at the end of the village
No matter how bad he feels In the end, I ended up sitting here as usual. This is it, moving on in a circle. At least it's good to sit and look at the house that person used to live in. The sun has been 9 years and it hasn't come back yet? Cloud could only think in his heart. I still don't dare to go ask him.
Tawan: I miss you.
Cloud: Come back.
Tawan: Oh, Brother Mek, wait for the sun first.
The last conversation he had with Tawan was probably 3 months ago. Tawan had said that he studied hard and he didn't want to bother me. Every once in a while the sun will greet you. If there's something stressful Tawan will ask to video call with him. Mek knows his own feelings, that he definitely thinks of the younger one, and it makes him feel good that when the younger one has something to do, he thinks of him.
I don't know if I'm the first person, but just thinking about him makes me happy. But again, Mek didn't want the younger man to call. Because it made him miss him even more. I don't know if Tawan has forgotten or not that he told him to wait, and even if Tawan didn't tell him, he would still wait.
The big Inthanin tree at the end of the village is a favorite place for him and Tawan to hang out together. He often picked up a book and sat under the shade of a tree to read. As for the younger ones, they will continue to tell stories about this and that. He also boasted that his house was across from this Inthanin tree, and that was the reason why this Inthanin tree was still his favorite place.
He also hoped deep in his heart that he would see the other person he missed carrying things back to this house.
Right now, he didn't like the scene in front of him at all. I don't like having someone other than the Tawan family move in instead. He was thinking only one thing. And if the sun comes back? I don't know why this family had to rent this house, and at the same time Mek was looking at the scene in front of him with a calm expression.
There was a boy who was thought to be about the same age as Tawan. The boy smiled at him. He didn't want to smile back and he didn't care how that child felt. Why isn't the person who came back the sun? After that, Cloud no longer paid attention to the scene in front of him. So he bent down to write the lyrics he had left behind. In fact, he still couldn't think of much, he just didn't want to look at the scene in front of him.
“What are you doing sitting here?” Cloud turned to look at the person who was the source of this voice. before letting out a bored sigh I didn't think that this kid would walk up and greet him. He didn't answer the younger man's question but instead stood up and walked out of there.
“Miss, my name is Sunday.” He was slightly taken aback when the other person shouted like that. He didn't want to get to know that kid to walk away like this. He didn't even turn around to look at the person who had spoken. Since what Sunday said was nothing important, he didn't pay attention and headed back home.
When the clouds walked into the house There was something on the dining table that caught his eye and he had to walk over to take a closer look. It was a bouquet of sunflowers with small white flowers that he didn't know the name of, which he considered to be a pretty bouquet overall. Cloud turned the bouquet in his hand around to look at all the flowers until he came across a card attached to the bouquet.
Thank you for everything.
-Khwan and family-
Seeing that it was a flower from the newcomer's family, he almost immediately put it down. Mek intended not to interfere with this family and act as if no one lived in that house. It is more comfortable to think that the sun will not return. And then this house became someone else's. After that, Mek came down to have dinner with his parents as usual. But what was strange was that he sensed that they both seemed to have something they wanted to say to him.
“Did Mom and Dad have something to say to me?”
"Well..." Kanda slightly turned to look at her husband, Kris, for support. She thought it was time to really talk to her son about the sun.
“I mean, Mom wants Mek to let go of the sun. Mother knows how Mek feels about her. Mom didn't stop me, but I just didn't want Mek to wait for you.”
“Mek, would you like to start over with someone? Waiting like this, there are only clouds of suffering. We don't even know when the little one will come back. The sun doesn't want to see clouds like this.”
Mek admits that when he heard what his mother said, it made Mek feel sick. He felt angry, but he wasn't sure if he was upset that his mother had told him to stop waiting or if he was upset that what his mother said was actually as correct as his mother said.
“I think Mom, please stop talking about your younger sibling. If I'm going to stop waiting, I'm going to quit myself.”
"I'm full, please excuse me."
Kanda and Kris could only look at their own son who had left the table to eat. She understood that he probably wanted to accept the truth. She understands how difficult it is to let go of feelings. She and her husband could only stay by her side when their son fell. But whether Mek decides to get up and continue walking or remain stuck is up to her son's decision.
The sound of a rooster crowing in the early morning woke Mek up from his sleepy and slightly annoyed sleep. He confessed that the sound of chickens had woken him up almost every morning since he was a child. He only knew that it was a village chicken, but he had never seen one before. Today he planned to go to the inthanin tree at the end of the village early in the morning.
There isn't much to do during school break like this. He therefore planned to use the knowledge gained from his studies to compose a song. His inspiration is that person, Tawan.
At the inthanin tree at the end of the village
Mek sat down under the inthanin tree and picked up his headphones to listen to the beat of a song he had already made but couldn't write the lyrics to go with the beat. He looked up from his notebook to the house that used to be Tawan's house, but he could only think of old times. In order to think of something Then he remembered what his mother had said to him yesterday while eating.
He had thought about stopping waiting. But every time he thinks like that, there will be some event that makes him secretly hope that the sun will come back. Even if it's a little hope It was enough reason to make him wait. Especially when the other person asked him to wait. But that's the thing, Tawan never told him when he would come back.
You told me to sit and wait and I waited without thinking.
You didn't even tell each other when you'd get back together.
At least thinking about that person gave him 2 bars of Rime. He wanted the sun to come back. This feeling has always been clear. I don't care what anyone sees.
“Hey bro! Candy
That boy again, Cloud thought. He turned to look at Sunday with a calm face that held a hint of displeasure at being disturbed. But he didn't scold or say anything and turned back to his usual work. If he didn't care about that kid, he would probably break up with him and get up himself.
About an hour had passed. Mek put the notebook aside. before raising his head to look at the sky to rest his eyes But when I put the notebook down, I felt like I had touched something. I could reach it and turn to look. When he saw that it was the hand of the boy who had come to look at him He was surprised. I don't know if this kid is still sitting. And then sat quietly for an hour.
“May I ask who you are waiting for?” Cloud was confused by the question from the person in front of him. Before he realized that he had opened the page of the notebook where he was writing the lyrics.
“I'm sorry I accidentally read it. I just want to sit and be your friend. You look so sad.”
"Don't worry," Cloud said softly. But it was loud enough for others to hear. He didn't want anyone to comfort him. He is not pitiful Why did the people around him act like waiting for the sun was such a pitiful thing? If he won't wait, he will make his own decision.
Sunday saw that the person in front of him didn't want him to interfere. He could only sigh at this person's private life. Why do you like to act so mysterious? I don't know the name. And why do you like to sit here? I don't know. He knew that this man was the son of the owner of the rental house that his family rented from.
And he also knew that the person in front of him was dissatisfied with his family renting this house, but he didn't understand why. And who is the person in front of them waiting? Sunday could only think of the reasoning of the person in front of him but could not get an answer. Today, his plan to befriend the person in front of him failed as expected. Sunday then decided to walk home.
But before walking into the house, he turned and saw a flower shop in the alley of his house. And saw the eye-catching flower, Sunflower. Yes, it was the flower that Sunday liked, both for its meaning. Its legend and its colors He suddenly thought of the person sitting under the inthanin tree. He didn't know why but he just felt that the meaning of the sunflower was the same as that person.
Sunday decided to go buy some sunflowers. He intended to give it to the person under the inthanin tree first. Then go home
“Ah, you.
Mystery
I gave it to you. I think it's like you.”
I don't know if it was because Mek was shocked when the person in front of him handed him a sunflower or was confused by the words Sunday used to call him. Mek reached out his hand and received the flower easily. He thought that the other person wouldn't bother him anymore, but then he went back and brought him sunflowers. He couldn't understand what the person in front of him was doing.
“Today you may not want to talk to me. So I'll come again tomorrow.
Mystery”
“My name is Mek,” before Sunday turned and walked home. He must be surprised by your presence.
Mystery
I agreed to tell him my name. But he didn't quite believe his own ears. Afraid that he might be deaf, he turned to look at the person under the tree to be sure.
"You can call me P' Mek. You're probably younger than me."
When Sunday heard that, he smiled. Even though the elder's face is still smooth Cold, but he was pretty sure. that at least the clouds had begun to lower their walls for him After the elder told him his name So you don't have to call me by a strange name again. Mek turned to sit and work as usual and didn't pay any more attention to him. But just now, he's happy.
After that day, it has been over a month now that Sunday has always come to sit under the Inthanin tree as Cloud's friend. Even though the clouds didn't ask him to. And every Sunday always comes with sunflowers to bring to the clouds. Cloud himself didn't refuse to accept it and he was already used to it. But the thing is the same. Cloud still spoke little, never smiled, and always left him alone to talk.
“Why are you still waiting for that person?” Sunday asked. with things that have been lingering in his mind since he accidentally read Mek's Rhyme But when I saw Mek's dissatisfied eyes I realized that I shouldn't have asked this question.
"I'm sorry, you don't have to answer."
“I just want to wait. And he used to tell me to wait.”
Upon hearing the answer of the person in front Sunday's first thought was that Brother Mek's life destiny really is like a sunflower. Waiting even though I don't know if he will come back. I'm only interested in him even though he doesn't care about me.
“Destiny
Yours really looks like a sunflower.” Sunday's words made Cloud a little confused. But he didn't ask anything. And he probably didn't realize that his expression clearly showed that he didn't understand what Sunday said.
“Sunflowers always face the sun. But the sun doesn't care about the sunflowers."
“That person must be your sunshine, right?”
"um"
After that, neither Mek nor Sun spoke again. Everyone is doing their own work. Mek still tries to finish writing the lyrics. Sunday sat quietly reading a book. He didn't dare ask the older man anything further. I didn't think that Mek would feel this much for that person. He really wanted to tell Mek to stop waiting for that person, but he didn't dare.
He sensed that this person was very important to Mek. And he could be sure that Mek himself already knew the answer, that that person would not come back. But the clouds are still waiting because of love, the only reason Sunday could think of.
“Cupid
Is this mean? Likes to make us feel for people who don't care about us.”
"um"
Sunday was slightly surprised by Mek's trembling voice. Until it's like someone is crying He then turned to the older man sitting next to him. But Mek handed him a cell phone. Sunday took it and looked at it. The chat picture that appeared in there made him understand the story of why Mek was crying.
Tawan: Brother Mek, Tawan has someone to take care of you.
Tawan: You don't have to worry about Tawan.
Tawan: He is a very cute person.
Tawan: Tawan will stay with him here after graduation.
Tawan: But Tawan will find an opportunity to go back and visit P'Mek.
Sun: Sun Sanya
Cloud: Yes.
Sunday admits that he is now shocked by the sight in front of him. He had never seen Brother Mek smile, but he didn't think that Brother Mek would cry in front of him like this. I probably really can't take it. Sunday, he went and pulled the older man who was crying into a hug. I don't know if it's enough to help people feel better. But at least you will know that there is still someone beside you.
“I know your feels fall down”
“Don’t be afraid to show your weakness, I will be beside you”
Sunday gently comforts Mek. There was no reply. There was only the sound of the clouds sobbing. Sunday was still hugging Mek and Mek didn't seem uncomfortable, but instead, he hugged Sunday back. It's very painful, waiting without a destination and his destination is not us. Sunday didn't know how long Mek had been waiting for that person.
But he didn't think to ask Mek. But he could guess that Cloud's wait would be very long. Until some time had passed and the clouds stopped crying. He and Sunday separated from each other. Mek finished writing his rhyme rap, so it fit right in with what Tawan had told him. His wait was over. Even though he still feels the sun
He knew that the Sunday boy who came to be his friend every day. Feel for him the same way he feels for the sun. He really wants to open up to Sunday, but probably not right now. When I still felt the sun
“Ah, take it and read it.” Mek handed Sunday a notebook with rhymes to read before leaning down on the younger person's lap. Sunday could only look shocked at Mek's actions. I didn't think the clouds would do this.
"Today, let me sleep like this first. I want to rest." Seeing that Sunday was so stunned that he hadn't even read Rhyme yet. So Cloud said that and slowly closed his eyes. Sunday saw that and didn't want to bother him so he took his eyes off Mek to read the rhymes that Mek had given him to read in his notebook.
The waiting that hasn’t finished.
My power that run to you, it has limit.
You told me to sit and wait and I waited without thinking.
You didn't even tell each other when you'd get back together.
Clapping with one hand isn't as loud as they say.
I want to tell you every feeling I have until I'm almost crazy.
I've felt alone with you for so long that I'm tired.
But you didn't come back and let me say it.
“Sunday”
“I don't want to tell you to wait. You know how I feel about you, but can I wait for you?"
“Wait until you don't feel like him. I don't want us to be the person who replaces someone when you're weak.”
“I don't know if it will take a long time. But if you can't wait, let me know."
“Yes, I will wait.”
