STAY

3... 2... 1... ROLLING!

“Sawadee krap~ *wai*” Bible and Build greeted the crowd and the host of the program.

The crowd became a chaos. It is the familiar noise that they experienced five years ago. The loud noises and the crowd cheering their names. The fans missed them and they missed them too.

“Hello, Bible. Hello, Build” the host greeted them and they answered back.

It was still the Bible and Build that they used to know. Bible’s calm aura. Having way more muscular than before but the facial features and hair cut is still the same. He is wearing a white shirt and black jacket that everybody is so familiar with. Build is wearing a blue and white outfit with his wide smile the reach his eyes and revealing his dimples.

They are still the same BibleBuild that people used to know. But what’s new is the distinctive space between them.

“So, how is it going with your individual life? Build, how are you? How’s your modeling career abroad?” the host started the conversation.

“It’s good. Very nice actually. I got the chance to travel several countries but I usually stay in Milan. I participated different fashion shows and magazine modeling.” Build answered.

“How long have you been in Milan as a model?” the host asked him again.

“Oh, I think five years. The whole five years, I was in Milan or traveling to other countries for work. That’s how my life went for the last five years.” Build let out a small laugh.

“Was it your dream to be an international model?”

“Well, before they offered me a modeling career in Milan, I used to do modeling alone and with Bible.” He eyed Bible and both of them displayed an awkward smile to each other.

“I think I can say that I like modeling even before accepting the offer. And I saw it as a very rare opportunity so I decided to grab it that time and it works.” he continued.

“How about you Bible? How are you over these five years? You know what, we rarely get news about you.” The host is so intrigued.

“Well,” Bible forced a smile. “Five years ago, I decided to go back to Chang Mai, my hometown. I accepted the offer of my father to take over our business when I told them that I don’t want to be an artist anymore.”

The audience gasps. It is the very first time they heard that Bible actually quit. They thought he was just in a long hiatus as the management didn’t release an official announcement about it.

“So you quit?” the host asked him again.

“Yes.” Bible is so cool about it.

Build is attentively listening to him with the same reaction with the audience.

“Why?” the host is now more intrigued than before.

Bible suddenly smiled bitterly. “I tried to go on. I tried to stay in the industry but everything is not the same anymore.”

The host frowned. “What do you mean?”

“Well, you know. I was used to being with him.” He eyed Build and suddenly Build felt a familiar connection between their stares. “But he has a career to pursue and he has to go.”
