The Truth Untold

by Diego Xavier

  - I do not know why the shame, everything I had to see, I saw last night - laughed Charles - But now I did not know that was changing Bae, I'm sorry, but also again I do not understand the shame, because every time you sleep with me, the next morning wakes up from tent well armed friend.

  - But aren't you ashamed? – Baeyong tape to Charles laughing – And yesterday was the only day I'll let you see me naked, out a moment I really needed a friend, but other than that it's out of the question to see me naked, you can go around, go, go.

  Charles helps him choose an outfit, wore the same numbering, went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and looked more like two small children at the time of doing such a mouth cleaning. Starting with C. throwing cold water at Bae who fought back with more cold water, smiled at each other and played to throw the cold liquid, they were wet and glad that in a bathrobe. Just if they change, Charles asks if he was in theting of going out to eat yet, Bae picks up the keys to the Mercedes and heads to the restaurant of the Four Seasons hotel near Boston Common, a luxurious place that was already customary for the two friends.

  - I remembered when I came running with Jin and we were starving, we stopped in front of the hotel and instead of getting in, he took me to a bourgeois shop called Five guys, and it was the best burger I've ever had in my life.

  - Oh, come on then now, I want to have that experience too, if it came from Jin it means it's good – Bae smiled.

  - Let's go crazy, we just ask a thousand things for the waiter, if we leave the poor guy will be in a cold - ria Charles to B. - and besides, I'm glad that Jin and you finally got it right, no sorrows and disagreements, then that party of friendship.

  - It's all your fault that's where it is.

  Why are you my fault? question C. laughing without understanding.

  - Because you make me a less "bitter" person and happier having your company...

  •Chapter 9 - Warm Hearts Winter Holiday!

  After all the happy and tumultuous events, finally a break will come into everyone's life. The winter break finally came, and at a time when they really needed a rest. Baeyong, after all that had happened and with the help of his friend, recovered as the days went by, but always preferred not to bring it up that made him feel so bad. The fantastic four always united, it was time to say goodbye for the winter holidays, they arranged to meet for the last time in the cafeteria of the university year, just after the end of their last classes, B. and Charles headed towards the meeting point as well as Charlotte and Jin doing the same. At that time of the championship, everyone knew who the fantastic four was and they really got famous at Harvard because of the contest they participated in. Charles and Baeyong arrive first and sit waiting for them.

  - I can't wait to get back back to the overcast London sky as well you could come visit me friend.

  - We've seen each other for months, I need a rest of that blonde face of yours, a moment of peace – Ria Bae as Charles looked on discredited with what he had heard.

  - I do everything for this person, and that's the result I have, because well, don't go visit me then, I was going to even give you a cat, I know the Japanese, I mean Koreans, love cats and you won't have an heir to the Snowtiger.

  - Wanting to get rid of the grandchildren who have not even seen yet, that grandfather denatured - ria Bae patting C. - I will not visit you because it is only two weeks, soon we see each other again, soon more you fill my patience again, do not worry.

  - Yes you are right, but in the week of the bag full we will take a trip together, no refusing, I need new airs to relax the mind of so much study.

  And where are we going? I've never been anywhere anyway, anyone will be new to me.

  I'm going to find a really nice place for us to spend the week and tell you when we get back after the holidays.

  Just don't pick a hot one, leave that one for next.

  - Oh so we will have another trip besides this, I thought i didn't even want to travel with me, I'm surprised - laughed Charles.

  - I've never traveled anywhere but my home in Seoul and New York, I've never had a companion for it and alone I prefer not to go, I think I want to share the excitement of meeting a new place with someone who is special and close to me...

  - And in case, I'm special to little Bae, then that best friend's PARTY, can let our trip will be amazing, too bad it will take – Retreated Charles on the bench away from his friend, for having called him Baezinho otherwise, the same looked at him with a bloodthirsty look and fury.

  - I'm just going to control my emotions because today's the last day I see you, but wait when we get back, and yes you're special to me, what am I going to do? Do I feel sad? I'm sorry, but that's what the universe wanted to give me, so I just accepted – Bae comes out on top of Charles and made him keep his face closed, playing with each other.

  After a few minutes, the quartet was complete, arrived with a pizza and began eating together for the last time in the year, laughing as usual, Bae and Jin closer and without fights, Charlotte closer to the group. B., C. and J. would go to their homes minus Charlotte who had decided not to spend Christmas and New Year in Paris, finish eating and hugging each other, come again in a short period of time and Charles decides to give some early Christmas gifts to friends, when they open were personalized smartphone weeds with each member of the fantastic marvel quartet Bae stayed with the fantastic gentleman, Jin with the thing, Charlotte with the invisible woman and Charles with the human torch.

  - Nothing more true, than you being the boring and who thinks of the human torch partner - whispered the unknown who had passed on their desk and stole a piece of pizza - Charles Adkins, the biggest asshole of Harvard, happy holidays friends of the asshole, that is, other assholes ... it's good to see you, Baeyong.

  Jin tries to get up and go get satisfaction from the boy, but is held by Baeyong and put him back to sit down.

  - Let me, it's not worth fighting with people like that – said Bae who turned around and looked at Charles who was not understanding and had lost some of his joy when he realized that there was someone who thought he was that way.

  - With fame, comes the chase, do not listen to him not Charles - Charlotte - If you were an asshole, would not make 1/9 of your good deeds, you are a great friend.

  But why is he attacking me? I didn't even do anything to anyone - laugh charles worried - Out of nowhere the guy comes to call me an asshole, me leaving in peace to my house and getting hit.

  - He's attacking the leader of the quartet, but we defend you friend, call for it no - Jin.

  But.. I wonder if I'm... Ba... - Charles before being interrupted by Bae.

  - Of course not, this guy was the same guy I hit in the bathroom and who put drugs in my drink, we're even, just don't pay attention to this asshole, let's turn the focus that is us.

  The friends return to their farewell, hug each other and thank Charles' gift, Jin and Charlotte leave for their dorms, C. and Bae to the airport together at least one last time a year. Charles' plane and Baeyong's family was waiting, they hug and say goodbye.

  - Until a few days from now, buddy, don't miss me too much in Bae

  - I'm not going to have anyone to fill my patience, it was to be sad. Renew yourself so you can put up with me more next year, ah I have one more gift for you Bae.

  - I'm going to start feeling bad that I didn't give you anything, Charles.

  I didn't even say I was going to give you gifts, so that's fine. Here, it's no big deal, but I was so happy with the result I wanted to give you away.

  Bae looked at that piece of enveloped drawing sheet, with his image sleeping like an angel and Charles standing next to him going to get one more ready with his friend, he laughed and his eye filled with water by having to stay away from the person he so loves to be in company - But it's his face that charles drawing , and it's beautiful, I didn't know it drew so well.

  Do I like it? It's always me trying to make some joke up on you and, seeing you happy at night when you slee
p because you've had a happy day.

  - Thanks buddy, like you said earlier, you're special to me. See you next year.

  - Even Bae - Charles hugged Bae and each to his plane.

  Charles enters his legacy 500 and heads to London, his home, Bae when he gets on the family plane and received by someone who makes his smile disappear in a matter of seconds and realizes that he wanted as soon as possible that his break from school was over.

  - How long will Baeyong, I'm going to keep you company on this trip...

  ***

  Charles

  Finally at home, he missed the mansion and everything routine that lived there during his eighteen years of life. His mother and father had welcomed him and Henry was all proud to see his son wearing the gift he had gave him, taking him home because the clock was already ticking midnight and jet lag would surely come to him. I would spend two weeks with the family that they love so much, and was very excited for this day off from university, the very next day you can see your grandchildren live and in color, I mean, a single color in the fur and several in their colorful eyes, that's how Charles distinguished them, Purple, Yellow, Red, Grey and Green, his new five kittens children of the Snowtiger sapeca , and for a change, the six slept with him in bed and followed his father to all corners, the mother decided to go on vacation and had not returned for weeks according to Amelie, she breastfed and decided it was time to rest, told while she laughed.

  - I'm glad you didn't have that thought with me in - laughed Charles.

  - Of course not your nut, you're my rare jewel - hugged the son with affection.

  - Okay, Mom, come on, my dad asked me to go with him, I don't know where he hasn't shown up so far, you know where he is?

  - Down in the living room reading the paper and waiting for you, you're late, as Ash says.

  - Oh yes, I have to hurry then, kisses you crazy.

  Charles goes down the stairs and finds his father, leaves for the car and head towards Henry's friend's house.

  What do you want me to go to, Dad? Is there anything good to eat there?

  - Just thinking about food son – Laughed Henry – It's just to spend some time together yourself, and you help us by telling us how a certain someone from Harvard is, just give details, we're wanting to surprise our fellow professor there from the university.

  - Spend time together right - laughed C.

  They arrived at the big house a few streets away the main gate opened for them and entered the main door of the house where William, Henry's friend was waiting for them.

  - Henry, Henry, at last, so this is the boy who's going to help us with our friend's 50-spring little surprise.

  - Sir, chief, how are you?

  - I'm going well, very polite yet Henry, what a wonderful son you have.

  - Genetics is good - laughed Henry.

  - Anyway, let's go in – Said William opening the door and directing them to his office – Well Charles, we want you to tell how our friend Albert is at university, we want full description of him, if he is a good teacher, if he is up to date, it is part of our research to give him a party with special gifts to enjoy in his next fifty years to come.

  - Son, he's been our friend for years, he deserves a decent party and we haven't seen him in a long time, we just exchanged messages in our group, we need to know what he looks like now so we can come to understand him better.

  Dad... I don't have any teachers named Albert.

  - But aren't you studying engineering at Harvard? asked William without understanding.

  - No, Dad, do you think I study engineering? What do you mean, has age come for you? - laughed Charles and a little worried.

  - I know it's international relations kid without patience - Stroked the head of the son - But his friend Jin does engineering right?

  How do you know about Jin? " asked Charles surprised.

  - I've been in contact with some veterans to ensure your safety, and I hear you have a friend who's studying engineering named Jin.

  Dad what does that? Stalker now? What is this madness? – ria Charles a little worried – But if it is Jin who does engineering, what do I serve then?

  Just ask your friend for us.

  So did Charles, he never saw crazy friends like this before and was a little confused by all this, but always knew that his father and friends were crazy in these business of surprises to each other, just cooperated and killed a little longing for Jin.

  - Now we have to discuss the second part of our plan Henry - said William excited - Charles if you want to eat something, the kitchen is over there, just ask something for the cook and my son must be around, I'll send a message to him to keep you company, I don't think you want to stay here in this boring talk.

  - You got it right, William, I'm going to go over there so, Dad, please, I have to go buy some cat stuff later.

  Charles went towards the kitchen, the path given by William was correct, but there were so many doors and corridors there that C. had ended up getting lost, and then a hand touched his shoulder causing him to take a slight fright.

  "The kitchen is this way," said the son of the owner of the house.

  Oh, what a fright! Okay, come on - laugh Charles.

  Charles Adkins, I didn't expect you to see him today, which brings you to my humble residence.

  Humble? - laughed Charles - and you already know me?

  And you know me?

  - I'm sorry, but no, what's your name? " said Charles remembering something lightly.

  - All right, I don't give much reason to be known either, it's my fault, but you're henry and amelie's son, believe me it's well known.

  "Oh, I don't even give much ball to that," Charles said, devouring one of the sandwiches.

  - This heater stays on at most, makes me hot, poor mother frienta, want to go outside for a fresh breath? - asked the boy watching Charles nod his head.

  They went towards the fountain to get some fresh air in their faces, their conversation flowed well and it seemed like they had known each other for months, talked about everything and time away passing, they were sitting there for a lot of minutes just throwing conversation away, which Charles hadn't done for a long time, they were both wearing long t-shirts due to the winter and the kid tired of sitting , gets up and gives a stretch on his body, causing C. to see something that left him frustrated and confused at the same time.

  You know me, right? – said C. seeing the positive nod in his head - Right, but I think I also know you, and if I know you I just hope to know why I'm finding you just now CHRISTOPHER YOUR BAG WITHOUT HANDLE, LEG DOWEL, HEARTLESS - said Charles grabbing Chris' arm and making him almost get out of the boy's body, just to show you the bracelet – Why are you fooling me all this time?

  But who says I'm cheating on you? Chris said- I just haven't said my name yet.

  - And you don't have to, I found out from the bracelet.

  - Yes, mission completed Charles, congratulations.

  - What mission completed what, for that all this anonymity? Charles laughed.

  I wanted to see your reaction to the bracelet I presented to you - Chris laughed.

  Why make suspense? I thought I had won a new friend on my birthday, but then I was sad after that I didn't know who it was.

  - But you got a new friend, look I'm here

  - No, so now you're trying to beat the crap out of me again, you nutjob, what if I didn't recognize the bracelet for lack of attention? Too bad I'm smart.

  - yes, you're smart, so I like you, Mr. Adkins.

  "No, I'm upset with you, you made me look and not find you," Charles said, crossing his arms, imitating a birrenta child, upset with his new friend.

  - You find it now, look how right fate is.

  Without... Free...

  - Kidding Charles, I'm sorry, I just could not see a person happy and good with life wanting to be a friend of mine, so I did not even manifest - chris laugh - Liked the gift I gave him?

  - It's about the expense.

/>   - I don't think so, he's wearing it to this day - while he took Charles' arm and supported him at the height of his eyes - "The dark is a light for the ...." beautiful the phrase right.

  It's incomplete.

  - The sequel is with me and I won't let you see it - smile Chris.

  I mean, really? It's going to be suspenseful yet, why can't I see it?

  - Yes, at the right time you will know - approached Charles, passing his arm over his neck - Sorry for disappearing from the map and not letting you know who I am, I will do suspense only with the phrase then friend.

  A friend? Who said - mocks Charles.

  - I know you're angry that I made you have work in vain, I'm sorry, you don't treat me like that, we're flour from the same bag of irony misunderstanding – Chris said making him laugh and agree.

  I'm not going to be mad at you, but you deserve it.

  But why did you get so anxious to see me like this? Did I make your heart beat faster after you almost harassed me in the dark room that day?

  - When I say that the animal is freaked out, believe me, the person's journey – laugh C. – You made me stumble and almost have a head injury.

  - So I saved you from a head injury, you have to reward me Charles Adkins

  - I still have to reward you - laugh C. - What a trip is this crazy, heavy "dorgas" that you are using taking effect.

  - How long are you going to be here in town?

  - It's just until the parties are over anyway.

  " Oh how sad, I won't see you for a while - said Chris a little sad.

  - That's what you give, you wanted to disappear and have no contact with your buddy here, now suffers - Charles laughing and putting his hand on his shoulder that puts his hand on C's.

  - I know I shouldn't have hidden myself, but really, you're a happy boy, you don't deserve weight in your life, I also wanted to have you as a friend, but I thought it best to have found us just that very day, there comes today and meet spontaneously without any scheduled programming or anything, I was surprised and aware that maybe it was a sign , and I had wasted one more opportunity, of the few that life has given me, and finally I find you and is already leaving, I think I deserve these things for myself.
