Unthinkable (GL Thai - Ghost Ship)

Part 24

***

I should break up with her.

In Sarocha's mind, that is the right thing to do. She thought it through and decided that she should just break up with Ling after what happened to her and Pat last night.

The guilt is eating her up.

Pat said that she could just forget about it and not tell Ling but for Saro, that is not possible. She cannot simply forget about the betrayal she done to someone that has been so good to her. She knows the feeling of being cheated on and yet she did it to someone so innocent like Ling.

I should break up.

"Are you still thinking about it?" Pat asked as she pass on the rice to Saro.

They are now in the dinning table having breakfast. Sarocha's mom is somewhere in the house but she let the two be alone in the dinning area.

She looked at Pat and nods.

"Yes, I don't think I can face her and not tell the truth. I have to come clean and just break up with her." She said, guilt and remorse are mirrored in her face.

"And you will come back to me?" Pat asked grinning.

"No." She replied coldly.

"Why not?" She asked again as they both eat their breakfast.

"Well, where should I start?" Sarocha said and rolled her eyes.

"Oh! So you do have list of grudges." She replied light heartedly.

They both laugh.

"Yes, I do have list of things that I consider before coming to this stage. I don't just give up easily."

Pat smile but her eyes are sad.

"I know. I assume one of those are the incidents of me cheating, right?" Pat said finally admitting that it was indeed cheating and not just because they are on break.

"That contributed a lot. But there are so much more, Pat. There are more. " Sarocha thought of it for a second before she continue. "Your parents. They do not approve to us. I don't think they will ever come around because they still destroyed me even after breaking up with you."

"M-My parents?"

"Yes, I told you everything before for over and over again that your parents is setting us up for failure but you don't believe that they can do it. I understand that they are your parents and you trusted them so I just suck it all up." She explained and sigh. "I did everything I could but no matter how much I try and how much I strive to be worthy of their approval, they are already set that I'm not the one for you and I got tired of fighting. Specially when you don't fight with me."

"I still don't understand."

Sarocha looked at her and bitterly smile.

"The screenshots and the timing of it to blow up in social media. Do you think it is all coincidence?"

Yoko woke up in Faye's bed because of the smell of delicious bacon and egg from somewhere with the sound of some classic jazz music. The set up on this morning is nostalgic for her as she remember waking up on the same music with delicious food growing up when her grandma is still alive. She got up smiling and followed where the aroma of the delicious food is.

She ended up in the kitchen and there she saw Faye cooking.

"Good morning." Faye greeted.

Yoko smile.
