The Eclipsed Sun (Completed)

Singto gets up because of the shrill sound of the breakfast bell, he finds himself head down on the table in front of his laptop. He must have slept off unaware, must be sometime around dawn. He drags his tired cramped body to the shower, the result of sleeping on the chair for so long .. He desperately needs warm soothing water  to ease his sore muscles, after pulling an one nighter like that but he knows he will not feel fresh, his head weighs a ton but his heart weighs million times more..

Singto has left krist alone on the ground, after he mumbled about him being the one who is laying the golden eggs for minister Sangpotirat..,The enormity of the sentence sinking in and making Singto immediately withdraw into the safe haven of his room leaving the younger sitting and staring far away into the cloudy dark sky..moon had again gone into hiding .

Singto couldn't bear those haunting eyes anymore, yes, he acted like a coward and he ran back to his room..the revelations of the nights freaking him out...he was gasping for breath when he had reached his room and had puked his dinner out. When he had calmed down enough, he had sat in front of the laptop to find out the deputy finance Minister's past and present. The things he found out,  only had made him get more nauseated and scared.

Krist's father was just a small time politician six years back. But when krist was discovered as a young prodigy in Thai music industry, his father's position also grew by leaps and bounds . Their family belonged to middle class and suddenly there was plenty of money to buy his way inside the political circle and Krist's father had done exactly that. It's not difficult to deduce if someone follows the sequence of events cleverly.

His father's popularity and political hold increased with krist's rising popularity. It's like Krist's money was siphoned to make his father soar towards his dreams and Singto is sure, that's exactly what had transpired! . Even with Nuwa and Singto's own family the scenario is no different. Singto is sure, his own father is paying the minister enough money to get underhanded deals and inturn he is a puppet in his father's hands , his son Krist the sacrifice required for the power and money hungry couple.

  Krist's sister Singto is sure doesn't understand or know anything about this , she looked not more than fifteen in his eyes.  She was the only person krist smiled with genuineness and sometimes answered her questions with ease. She also seemed , in retrospective almost horrified when krist was going back with Nuwa to their bedroom where as her mother just looked plain embarrassed.

But what is Singto's role in all these,he cannot take krist's sister help, she is too young for all these murky dangerous business, neither Singto is that powerful or that rich to challenge his own family or the Sangpotirat's. He decides for now he will try to be the younger's friend, there is something about him that he can't just ignore and leave krist to his toxic sufferings , saying that it's his bad fate.. if he can't make him escape immediately,  atleast he can be his solace for now, obviously if krist allows him to be.

He goes to the breakfast table , but another rude surprise awaits him, today his brother is also late and its just Nuwa, krist and him at the breakfast table. Nuwa has made the younger sit on his lap,as he is ordering krist to feed him, the dishes he wants. The servants are discreetly missing too, giving the young lovey dovey couple privacy or  disappered fearing Nuwa's wrath , Singto doesn't know ..

" Ohh you also haven't had breakfast ,do you have a hangover too?  when did you start to drink sing..I thought you hate alcohols and bloody alcoholics?" His brother laughs as he prompts with his eyes to feed him the remaining omlette on his plate by krist.

Singto looks at krist, as he feeds his brother with zero expression on his face, in just robotic motions. How does Nuwa even like this! This statue of a human serving his every need but hating him to the core? What erotic kick does someone get out of a semblance of a human as your husband? Singto feels more disgusted with his brother, if that is even possible , seeing him enjoying krist's emptiness as love and his forced slavery as some form of winner's pride!
