Chapter Text
"Do you want to come with me to the bar?" Phuwin asked enthusiastically...
"You know there can be alphas too right?" Aou mocks from the other side of the phone call. It doesn't matter anyway to Phuwin...whether there will be alphas or not unless and until he is getting harassed.
"I don't behave like... I want them to get banished from the earth, or something like that!" Tang sighs when the other persons breaks into laughter. It really pisses off Phuwin so much that he want to just hang up the call and go there rather by himself.
"But you do behave like that after reaching off your limits. Honestly, it is such a headache to handle you after six to seven drinks. You look like an old man who whines about this generation kid's behaviour.... Cocky!"
Phuwin hangs up the call. He curses the man who woudn't stop complaining about his damn behaviour, although there was not a single lie.
Last time, when they both went off to the bar.... Phuwin was already wasted after few shots and embarrassed few people including Aou in the bar. But Aou could handle his booze unlike his cocky friend well that's because he was an alpha and heavy weighted while Phuwin was not.
But Aou ended up with Phuwin for today night.
^^^
"Does your father knows, you have an Alpha friend?" Aou asks steering his drink, making the ice clank with the glass among thousands of people going mad over the music.
Phuwin laughs off. Such an odd thing to ask the person whose father doesn't even care about what he does and what not! The only think he cares about is sending off his son to his father in law's house as soon as possible.
"You are lucky that he doesn't know about you. Or else I would have been asked to marry you!" Phuwin laughs again thinking of a scenario where Aou looking so miserable marrying his cocky friend who behaves like a old man whining.
"Then why are you taking such risks for hanging out with me? What if your dad finds out?"
Phuwin also doesn't know the answer for this. Well, it's not the first time someone had asked him this question. It was Phuwin who did it to himself but everytime the question remained unanswered. He relaxes his shoulder scratching his head against the his own glass.
"You-I...I just can't bring him to my recognization! Every night he comes and disappears...." Phuwin sounds so desperate which throws Aou into frowning.
"Who?"
Phuwin looks at Aou's confused gaze for quiet a moment expecting something on his face but it is not the same... the person who is sitting beside him and the one who comes in his dreams every night.
Phuwin and Aou met at a cafe, accidently when Phu split his coffee on Aou's books. Their meeting is not so vivid to dive into. Meeting cazually at the same place day by day led to their companionship only because they both had same interests but the interests were not the reason why Tang stayed.
Phuwin didn't really had any friends left from his University, good to have some little chitchat with. But when he couldn't do anything even after getting an English Honours degree just because his dad won't let him, Aou was like a timepass for him.
But when the nights grew restless for Phuwin, and it became someone's way of conversating with him, Tang realized that Aou might be holding something greater in his life rather than being only a timepass. The dreams grew more vivid as his closeness with Aou increased, as if he was feeding the deep longingness for Phuwin with someone unknown.
Day after day, the person who only appeared as a shadow, could be seen now but his face was still invisible to Phuwin. And everytime Phuwin woke up from his dream, he would be so much disappointed to not being able to see the person. Although he was not curious but his soul was, his inner omega was as if it was trying to find a lost connection wtih someone from past.
Till then, he remained friends with Aou. Because being with him, connected his strings of curiosity he is trying to solve till date.
***
Phuwin Tangsakyuen, in the world where Omegas are treated like a burden in their own family, and totally a dependence on the so called superior gender known as Alphas, expected to be surrendered and be submissive to them for their whole life... wants to stand out and be known for more, rather than his second gender only.... An Omega.
Phuwin is scared to give his freedom and his control over someone else rather than a beta. Alphas, who takes too much pride over their second gender, Phuwin considers them as shameless and blinded by a superior power. They think that they can do anything they want just because they have the most advantage in the society.
***
"Stop treating omegas like a baby machine!"
"Omegas can be more independent and far more powerfull."
"We are not something to only lure Alphas neither for satisfying our sexual desires nor theirs."
"I wish I was never a burden to my family. They want to marry me off to an alpha although I am only 22."
Phuwin leaned back reading the last comment on a post from a well-known twitter account. He somehow can relate to that. He is 23 with bachelor's degree in English. He can easily manage his expenses while teaching in a well reputed University or a school maybe, but his father won't let him do that. Not really! Phuwin can pursue in teaching field but only after marriage.
This is where he can relate. Marriage! and that too with an Alpha only.
The reason for this most fucked up thing that Phuwin's dad is forcing upon his son, is much absurd...........for now, I can only say that Phuwin is not a burden to his father.
It's been one year, his dad is compelling him to date an alpha. It's not like Phuwin never dated, he did... only once and that broke with a harsh reality told by the beta with whom he was in a committed relationship.
Yes beta! Phuwin dated betas. Not for eerie reasons but only for love, he dated those normies. He wanted to be loved, and not looked down upon as a weak omega which according to Phuwin every alpha did. He thinks that the only gender who are free and devoid of any gender discrimination were the betas. They didn't have to fight for their rights, they were just normal human beings living the best they can.
"We don't have any future Phuwin, you need to accept, how God created you! You are ought to be with an alpha and me with a beta. The society won't accept us! You have to let me go!"
Phuwin loved the beta with all of his life and the latter broke the realtionship like it was nothing else.
After four years of relationship in an empty field Dunk invited Phuwin to only say his last words. Phuwin didn't even got his chance to say things. He would say, I can make things right, Dunk, you don't have to think about what other's say. It only matters if we are happy and that's all. But Alas! He never saw Dunk after their last meeting as if he disappeared forever.
It hurted Phuwin to the core of his heart.
The first heartbreak Phu ever faced in his twenties. From that, he never had his eyes on any other beta. The alphas amused him, amused by their way of pursuing omegas taking the advantage of their second gender. It was easy for them. They got everything they wanted whether it's physically or sexually.
"Tsk! It's absurd Dunk! It's written nowhere that omegas and betas can't date, but it's the fucking society right? Are they holding that much worth among the moments that we hold so close to our heart?... Did you even think about me for once Dunk before giving up on me?"
^^^
Phuwin's deep thoughts got interrupted when his phone buzzed under his heavy body, pressed against the bed. On looking at it, the secretary's name flashed up. It's his dad's secretary. Not the first time, the man doesn't have time to call his own son and have to appoint his secretary to do that.
Phuwin hummed after taking the call.
"Sir want's to meet you at his office at this moment."
Phuwin doesn't want to go, he really doesn't. He just wishes to roll on the bed, juggling thoughts about Dunk and hurting himself again and again.
"Tell him, I am not well, I will meet him when he gets home."
"It's about your engagement!"
Phuwin's breath got caught in his own throat, trying to swallow up the fact why his dad would make a call just to talk on this topic. Supposedly, it had to be serious. Did he already find a groom? Phuwin only had one year to find an alpha suitable for himself, but the time was over when his Dad had to get to action.
"There in fifteen minutes!"
Phuwin rushed through his room, gathering his cloths. It can be anything his Dad want to talk about... it can be Phu's wish being finally accepted of working as a teacher or something worst which Phuwin can see coming since one year.
And it's the latter one.
"I have given you enough time and you didn't find anyone of your acquintances. My business partner Mr. Naravit also wishes his alpha son to marry someone. They are coming to meet you tomorrow."
His dad announced as he talked with the groom that they are going to meet Phuwin tomorrow at the very start of the day.
Just this shook Phuwin's world. So the time really flew so fast like a spirit on skin! Everything is shattered, his life, his wants, his desires. None of it was bothered.
Should I run away to a city or maybe country? Should I call my brother? Should I threaten my dad by suiciding? Should I do something bad to ruin my reputation and shoo away the visitors?
Possibilities are there to help Phuwin and the last one may help, because threatening his dad is futile for Phuwin's cowardness. He would not dare to cut a single nerve of his. His brother out of town and there is no place to run and stay in some relative's house, eventually all of Phuwin's relatives agree with the marriage decision.
The first thing Tangsakyuen does after getting home is to grab his tab, make four to six burner accounts, on twitter about himself. It took time but it was worth it (maybe) and the first post went...
@LoveLoki_
Phuwin Tangsakyuen is going to marry? That fucker is going to marry? Am I seeing stars? The omega who likes to suck every alpha's cock is going to be in a committed relationship? You want to make me laugh Honourble? Do you even know your own son's character? Know how slut he is! I seriously feel pity for the alpha!
The posts tagged both Phuwin Tangsakyuen and his Dad's blunt announcement about his son's marriage on internet.
Phuwin was pretty much famous because of his fashionable posts and his good image in his academic life. Making this posts would make anyone think twice before reacting on it. Everyone knows how cruel alpha-hater he is. He was well aware of this but he still came up with this plan.
Within one hour the post blew up among his followers, so Phuwin denied stopping.
Another post went like...
@Rumi_Jinucloud
He once slept with me for one week and sent me off by saying, I have a small dick. Don't know how he is going to satisfy himself with only one dick?
Comments:
@Straykidsforever
His husband will have to hold up a orgy for him!
@Kneedingowl
Do you know his husband is?
@Samanthaandrachel
IDK MAN! RUMOURS SAY, IT'S POND NARAVIT, CEO OF VERSACE.
On the other side of the same country, the said man was amused by how Phuwni wants to get out of the situation.
Eventually, Phuwin's dad saw everything his son was doing. He was not surprised because he knew why this was happening...
^^^
"Is your Junior cooking something in his room? Because surely I can see that he is hating the idea of having a good image for the marriage!"
The old man chuckled while scrolling on his iPad.
"Don't bother Dad! Not marriage, marrying an alpha is what he hates. Even marriage is a distant subject when he despises the touch of them. And for this he is going to such limits to ruin what he built for these past years."
Another man submerged in the swimming pool, shot back as he forwarded his arms to go with the flow of water.
"Hahaha! He is just like your mother. She also made up some false rumours about herself just because she despised me but soon she got comfortable with me, more like I made her comfortable!"
The old man reminisced his old and sweet days as he chuckled twice.
Another man dived back into the blue water disappearing beneath the surface when his dad spoke again.
"But will not it be forced on that kid?"
His son rose up, eyeing a playful look to his dad, "Mr Tangsakyeun is on his edge of patience and urgency to marry off his son. It will be a perfect idea if he marry someone whom he knows... as his senior at least and not to some random alphas present out there. I already had some conversation with his dad, gave my whole background check to him."
"But as you said, he only dated betas. And you were just there for one year when he entered the University, so there's a high chance our proposal might get rejected if the kid says no to it. More likely, you were just his friend. We can't force him for this."
The old man stated something very crucial, to which his son only lets out a menacing laugh,
"Mr, Tangsakyuen would not let him do that."
Pond Naravit Letratkosum, an Alpha, only loyal for one person and that is his junior, who is an Omega obviously. He would not dare getting topped by another Enigma or get wasted over my another beta. He had eyes only for one person, Phuwin Tangsakyuen, the man who is now chronically online spreading fake rumours about himself.
The first time he met Phuwin, he looked like fallen angel to Pond. With such precise features, and beauty, anyone would be head over heels for him. Indeed everyone was! Every Alpha in the University wished to have him as their dating partner for once in a lifetime, but just like Pond, Phuwin was also loyal for one person, his classmate, Dunk Natachai.
Pond didn't feel jealous, he was happy to have Phuwin by his side for his last year in the Uni. Phuwin was his saviour. To Naravit, Phuwin didn't got introduced as an omega but a kind being and that was enough for the alpha to devote himself to that person.
His omega is so dumb. His omega? Yes Pond Naravit's Omega. Phuwn Tangsakyuen is only his, or more likely Pond only belonged to this junior from the very first day when he entered the University when Pond was in his fourth year, nearly on his edge to finish his graduation.
It doesn't matter to Pond, whom Phuwin dates. It is okay till the person treats him well, and makes him happy.
But, looking at any other omega was like a sin to Naravit. He doesn't even let any other omega's scent get near him. He feels like, he is being a cheater.
Call it a obsession or not but Pond lived with it for over four years and would continue to live with it if Phuwin's dad never brought up the proposal of marriage to his business partner Mr. Letratkosum. Pond adored Phuwin a lot, he felt like somenone who just saw a victorian lady's ankle. The golden chance was there and he can't let it go.
Again, name it as coincidence or not when Pond, who also disliked the idea of marriage suddenly wanted to have his husband or wife at the age of 27. And his dad who wanted to see his son getting responsible about family joined hands with him.
***
"So why do you want to marry him only? when I showed you pictured of other persons, you blindly rejected them!"
"You won't understand Dad, I am made for him. And I am not intertwining with anyone else if it is not him!"
The Oldman can't help but go with the flow because at the very end, he works to see his son becoming a responsible man, taking care of his family just like he did when Pond was small.
While Pond's dad is okay with this, his mom is not. She is an omega and she knows how struggling it is to make sure an omega is safe and protected by his alpha. And in this generation where omegas are fighting for their rights, divorce is more likely to happen between couples who are not aware with each other's inner selves, the core of the souls present inside them. She is scared, that her son might fail to ensure his husband that marrying an alpha does not mean submitting to them for their whole life and becoming dependent on them. Its more like two puzzle pieces fitting into each other where none of them can stand alone. If the inferior needs the superior, then its also the other way around. Because that's how god made us.
Her husband who was a nuisance still made it to the very end where he could make his wife believe that it's okay to cry but that doesn't mean you are weak, it's okay to feel insecure when your husband is not around, when his pheromones are not there to calm you down but that doesn't mean you are always dependent on them, it's okay to be shy and fragile, but that doesn't mean you can't fight when the right time comes.
Alphas are naturally born powerful by physique and omegas by their brain. This is God's creation.
And the creatures who think or make believe the inferior genders that these are just some flaws and omegas can never be strong are the most foolish person.
***
"He never had been with an omega before. When I spoke to him about this few years ago, he said 'he is only going to be the alpha to a particular omega. If not him, then no one.' How can you expect that he will be a good husband after he marries?" Pond's mom spat from the other side of the phone call.
"Darling, he is your son, at least have trust in the values that you taught him! And it's the same person for whom he is lovestruck for all these years."
***
While things were going so called smoothly on the side Phuwin got bored from making a show about himself. Few anonymous comments also popped up defending him. Tang is not deleting those to make the situation look normal.
@Raiza
He never liked alphas, stop spreading false rumours.
@Kyokoshiaa
Phuwin only loved Dunk #DunkPhuwin
@Cinnamoncrust
You don't even possess any evidence to prove this.
And few came astonished and surprised...
@BlingBangBorn
I can't believe he would do that, is it the same Phuwin Tangsakyuen we know?
@Yabrothuh
Freaking sex maniac, behaves like he hates it and does it in the dark like he enjoys it.
It's midnight and Phuwin's eyes are freaking red from the long stare on his screen. He will get glasses even before getting his husband.
Crazy how his dad didn't even call him to scold after watching this ruckus! Is the plan even fruitful to act upon the visitors. He is sure that they are well aware by now.
Phuwin will get answer to his confusion the day after...
DDRRT DDRRT
Phuwin gets Aou's call.
"What's up! You didn't even call in the morning to know whether I slept good or not!"
Aou laughs nervously. Even though he was one to sent Phuwin home last night. He didn't need to ask more because he knows Phuwin usually sleeps well after getting drunk. No more late night dreams.
"Well, I called you to ask about your twitter posts? Are you sane right now?"
"Absolutely yes, when my Dad just told me that he found a groom for me in the morning." Sarcasm was the only thing Phuwin could speak right now...
"He did? Already?" Aou asks but it seems like he is little bit disappointed at this news.
Phuwin lowers down his tone, "Yes he did and I am doomed!"
"What can we do about it? umm, my mom is calling me I need to go! Good night!"
But on the other side no one was there to call Aou. It was silence, a type of silence which haunted him. And now he badly wants to cry about what Phuwin said on the phone call.
Why? Because he loves Phuwin...
***
"Fuck why are you heavy Phuwin? The fuck do you eat except liquors, get a grip for god's sake." Aou is already tired by carrying Phuwin's weight. Though he complained, there was softness in his tone.
Phuwin mockingly laughs looking at Aou's miserable face. Aou tightened his grip around Phu's waist as the boy leaned against him. A lazy smile tugged on Phuwin's face, his arms dangling on Aou's shoulder. His steps felt like a marionette whose strings were cut just a little too late.
Phuwin's head rested against Aou's. Aou looked at him. Phu's hair was a mess, his lips slightly parted, a faint blush still dusting his cheeks from the alcohol. He looked ridiculous—and stupid—and utterly beautiful.
"I love you", Aou whispered.
The confession came unstrucked to Phuwin's senses. He didn't respond, continued to lean against Aou like he trusted him.
I know you don't consider me something else rather than your friend! I can never have that place in your heart. I loved you silently and I know I will not get that in return. I don't understand the reason why I am staying and hurting myself maybe because somewhere I still wish that you would love me the way I do, look at me the way I do.
I am sorry, I couldn't control my feelings for you, I am already in love with you, Phuwin Tangsakyuen. You wanted a bond of friendship but I failed that.
You say that, I make you remember someone, I guess that's the reason you are with me. You say your dad wants to find an Alpha groom for you and you don't want to marry, but still you are there with me all the time.
I cherished every drink I had with you and maybe that was the last drink we shared, the previous night. Now that you will get married, I wish you a good life with your Alpha.
I guess I didn't deserve you somehow....
I will remember you as a good thing happened to my life.
For you it feels like I am just an muse or just a friend with whom you can have some drink at night! After you broke the friendship one month ago saying that the dreams are haunting you and I didn't question any of it, not when you called me out of the blue last night. But I am willing to do everything if its you... Phuwin...
I am letting it go....
***
Two years ago: -
Phuwin groaned as someone bumped into his shoulder, the books and the water bottle hit the floor, disturbed the peace in the cafe. He turned around irritatingly, "Look, where are yo...."
"I am sorry!" The person apologises before Phuwin could complete his sentences, he knelt down to pick up the water bottle and the spilt cup that just slipped off from Phuwin's grip because of the bump. Tang relaxed his cheeks.
He also knelt down to get the books on the floor. That's when the eyes of the stranger stared on his face, and the background seems to fade away around Aou.
The beauty which didn't wanted attention because it was simply holding it. The sun kissed cheeks, the tucked hair behind the ears, didn't seem natural, it was ethereal indeed...."Hey!!!"
Such a short time Aou got to write down the beauty description of the stranger in his head. He quickly grabbed the books which Phuwin held, gave the water bottle to him.
"I am sorry!"
"Its okay!"
...
Will we meet again dear stranger?
