For Eternity (KhaoFirst)

7*

I tried to find that kid but didn't see him again. It was only after a while that I discovered the day I saw him was his last day in school. I left America to Thailand and he's leaving Thailand to America? The irony... At least I got to know his name though. "Ordell"...

I want to see him again

Momm I don't want to go
What do you mean you don't want to go?
It's your graduation
I know mom. But I just don't feel like going
Why not? *sigh*
You know you're just throwing a tantrum right? I know you'll go but it seems like there's something bothering you
...
See, you don't have a reason not to go
I'm just.. sad
Is it because you haven't seen that person since then?
What! Momm I'm leaving now
Why don't you ask your friends about him? They would surely know how to contact him.
I know mom but in as much as I love them and they love me, they would never let me hear the last of it. And what if... What if he's not like me? What if he doesn't like me? Then they would all know and it would be really awkward for everyone. It's better this way. I have a feeling we're going to meet each other again. I just... don't know when.
*Sigh* my baby is all grown up now. It's your relationship and I respect your choices but don't spend too much time chasing after an illusion okay? You can't wait around all your life you know
Yes mom. I know but I promise it'll be worth the wait
If you say so then...
I have to get dressed now mom

Film, looking gorgeous as ever. And Dew... Err.. a bit more than average. Not bad for someone like you
How's our handsome valedictorian doing? Is your boyfriend here in person today or is he still living free in your head without paying rent?
Hey Dew! What are you teasing me for?
Don't you forget how you... Shhhhhhh too much information. I'm sorry I won't ever tease you again.
What was he going to say?
Nothing babe
Deww!
Let me explain
I'm leaving
FILM.. IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK
Liam you're wicked!
You've known me all these years how are you finding out just now. I suggest you go after your girl.
I'll be back for you
No you won't. You dare and I'll tell her how you've been obsessing over her from the start. It's not a bad thing to fall in love first you know
I know but it's embarrassing because she only thought of me as a friend then
Well you never know... By the way tease me again and I'm telling. It's high time she knows what a psycho you are anyways
I won't do it again I'm leaving.. FILM...!

I'm finally graduating.
I'll miss this place
Holds so many memories

Let's welcome our valedictorian to the stage. Everyone a big hand of applause for Liam Thanawat........

Hi everyone. You all know who I am and for those who don't I'm the most handsome graduating student. Everyone laughed and I stood there taking it all in. These people who have become my close friends over the past years. I had to smile. When I came here everyone had already settled but they welcomed me into their circle and made sure I didn't feel left out. I have the best friends and classmates in the world .I would like to thank my friends for always being there for me when I need them.  For just being who they are. I'm grateful to have such great friends. I would also like to say that my experiences in this school are very educational. I'm sure I can take on anything that comes my way. That's all. I know I'm smart but I didn't expect to be given this role. I'm deeply honoured. I wanted every word I said to be from the heart so I didn't prepare a speech before hand. Thank you
Won't you thank your teachers? I looked at the audience and saw Boun looking at me mischievously. I sighed dramatically and answered him.. Why do you have to share Dew's single braincell? It's really exhausting for smart people like us younno..
Youu! Liam. Just wait until I get my hands on you
And besides all they did was give me detention.
That's because you're a rouge
More like a rogue prince don't you think?

I knew it was not a good idea to have Liam give this speech. But he's earned it so we don't really have a choice
I'm starting to regret it too. How could he argue with his friends right there? These kids are unbelievable. Honestly now I'm just happy they are finally graduating. Not just you headmaster. Everyone is celebrating to finally get rid of them. These kids are one of the smartest set of students ever but for some reason they just can't seem to get out of trouble.
I think they've had enough fun.

Liam. Thank you for that beautiful speech.
Not as beautiful as you miss Cindy
Liam Thanawat!!
I grinned broadly and stepped down from the podium.
My friends were all talking and I took a moment to really look at them.. Dew, Film, Mark, Boun, Jamie, Win and his older brother Bright, Tu, Louis and the crazy one Neo.

Babyyy
Mommmm
Come here let's take pictures together.
Mmmn okay. I looked behind her but why bother. It's not like I'm going to magically get what I wa...
Khao!!
That voice..  Dad!
I didn't care who was watching as I ran to hug my dad with tears streaming down my face. My dad. He's finally back. My dad is a soldier and is always getting deployed from one place to another. Four years ago he was sent on a classified mission. Mom and I moved back to Thailand "for our own safety" . About a year ago we got a message saying Dad was MIA. We haven't heard anything from him since then. I always send letters but they're never replied. I turned to look at mom and she was rooted in one spot . Mommmm. It's dad! Dad's back. She smiled while crying silently. Yes.. he's back. I watched as they hugged each other tightly.

Hey guys
Why do you enjoy screaming Dew?
I'm sorry babe I thought you liked it
(Ohhhhhh555)
You're such a pervert
Why are you calling?
Look at Li
Shii... Is that his Dad?
Yes I think so
Look at those stars! His dad's a colonel?
What kind of a person do you think his father is?
Why don't we go say high since you're all so curious.?
Err.. there's no need for that Bright. We can always ask Li later
There's no time like the present. Let's go
(Win talk to your brother)
(I can't say anything. You know how he gets when he makes up his mind)
( Then let's prepare ourselves to get slaughtered wuhuhuhuu)
(SHUT UP BOUN)
(Bullies! I have bullies for friends)
(Maybe if you talked less you wouldn't be in trouble all the time)
(Mind your business Louis)
(You are my business)
(And what's that supposed to mean?)
(It's means..)
What are you whispering about there
Nothing Bright! We're coming right behind you

Man! Your dad's back!
Yea I know right. We had no idea he'd be back today.
I'm happy for you bro
Thanks man
But please save us
Bright dragged is all here to come say "hi"
Then say hi
But your dad's a colonel. You never said anything about him being a colonel. You only said he was in the army
How long ago did he leave
I don't know. Four years?
And you think he wasn't promoted since then!
My dad is so impressive of course he'd have a higher rank now than when he left

Li are these your friends?
Yes Dad
Good afternoon sir
I watched as the rest of them seemed to freeze after Bright's greeting
I pinched Boun who was standing next to me and as expected he pinched the person next to him and it went on like that . They all bowed slightly to greet dad
Good afternoon sir!
I tried my best not to laugh but I couldn't help it. They all gave me side eyes and dad laughed as well

You don't need to be scared kid's. I'm just Li's Dad
Yes sir. Of course
So Li are you coming to the party tonight?
Nah... I'll pass this one out
Thenn we'll see you later okay
Okay guys. Stay safe . No freaky business!
They were blushing so hard. It's not always I get to tease those guys.
I turned and mom and dad were leaning into each other smiling at me

You were still little when I left. I can't believe how much you've grown. Come here son. I missed you very much. I missed you too dad.
My dad wrapped an arm around my shoulder and another around mom's waist
Let's go home
