Chapter 19 - Side Story

Red Fountain Academy Series

Saturday morning…

Kik is watering the plants when someone pressed the doorbell.

She opened the gate and she saw Gypsy standing outside the house.

“Good morning.” Gypsy said.

“Good morning.” Kik said. “Mild isn’t here. She went to Pattaya.”

“I didn’t come here for Mild.” Gypsy said. “I came here to talk to P’James.”

Kik is shocked.

“Aunt Kik, no worries. Your secret is safe with me. I just want to talk to him.” Gypsy said.

“O-Ok.” Kik said.

                         …………………………………………………

James opened the door when Kik knocks the door but he is surprised to see Gypsy standing behind Kik.

“I’m sorry, James.” Kik said.

“It’s, auntie.” James said.

“I will let you two talk.” Kik said and left.

“Come in.” James said to Gypsy.

Gypsy enters the room.

“What do you want to know?” James asks.

“Everything.” Gypsy said.

                         …………………………………………………

Focus is leaving the Silver Fountain Co. building when two guys stand both on her sides.

“Don’t scream and just do what we say.” One of the guys said.

Focus can feel something sharp on her side.

The two guys lead her to the van that was waiting on the side of the street.

The van’s door opened and they pushed Focus inside the van.

“Hello. Long time no see.” Cheer said.

“You? What do you want?” Focus asks.

Cheer smirked.

“Let’s go.” Cheer instructed the driver.

                         …………………………………………………

James is alone in their hangout place. It is the night before the fight. He is thinking of what will going to happen tomorrow.

“P’James…” someone called him.

“Oh? Jo…” James said.

“Can you do me a favor?” Jo asks.

“What is it?” James asks.

“I know I am being selfish but I am worried about my sister. I want her to leave the gang life. She is only doing this because of Mek.” Jo said. “I also heard that there will be a fight tomorrow.”

James thought for a moment.

“I have a plan but are you willing to do what I want you to do?” James asks.

Jo nodded.

                         …………………………………………………

After talking to Jo, James went home. He talked to his father.

“Pa, I have a favor to ask.” James said.

“What is it?” Aum asks.

“You always wanted me and Mek to stop being gangsters.” James said.

“Yes. What about it?” Aum asks.

“I know a way but I need your help.” James said.

“Say it.” Aum said.

                         …………………………………………………

D-Day…

“The police are here! Let’s go!” Oh shouts.

“Let’s get out of here!” Napat shouts.

Everyone is running away.

BANG!

Mek, Focus and Alice stop running when they saw James stop running.

“James?” Focus said.

James fell down on the ground with his blooded back.

“James!” Focus shouts. She wants to go to James but Mek and Alice pulls her away because the police are coming now.

                         …………………………………………………

James meet with his father and Jo at the hospital.

“Some of the members of the other gang groups arrested but the leaders managed to escape.” Aum said.

“Good job for shooting me Jo.” James said.

“But we have a problem.” Jo said.

“What is it?” James asks.

“Someone saw me.” Jo said.

“Who?” James asks.

“A member of the War Blood Gang. I think his name is August.” Jo said.

“I will take care of him.” Aum said. “From now on, James is dead. We will keep this a secret. As for you, Jo, maybe I can help you in your position in the academy. I can talk to Mr. Mahapreukpong. You need a position to the academy so you can protect your sister.”

“Thank you, sir.” Jo said.

                         …………………………………………………

“So, what are your plans now? You are not hiding here if you don’t have a plan.” Gypsy said.

“The war is starting again. And I suspect that it has something to do with Oh. He is the right hand man of the Red Dragon Mafia in China and there are rumors that he will be the next heir of the Red Dragon Mafia. But to be the next heir of the Red Dragon Mafia, he must make the Red Dragon Mafia the strongest here in Thailand.” James said.

“Wait. You mean this is not a war between gangs? You are talking about mafias. Do you know how serious it is? Even a Mahapreukpong can’t stop the mafias.” Gypsy said.

“Mahapreukpong doesn’t need to get involve here.” James said.

“And who will stop this war? Not the Red Blood Gang for sure.” Gypsy said.

“Stronger than the Red Blood Gang.” James said.

                         …………………………………………………

Krist, Indy and Gunsmile are at Pattaya with the others for the photo shoot. In the middle of the photo shoot, Krist received a call.

Hello, handsome…” a familiar voice said.

“Who is this?” Krist asks.

Oh my. I am so disappointed. Don’t you recognize my voice? Anyway, since you can’t recognize my voice, maybe you can recognize this one.

Hello? Krist?

“P’Focus?” Krist said.

That’s right.” The woman said after letting him hear Focus’ voice.

“Who are you and what did you do to her?” Krist said.

Relax, handsome. She is ok… for now. Go to the address that I will text to you today. You can bring your two friends and nothing else. I am sure you’re not going to call the police. Hurry up. Time is ticking.

The call ended.

Krist went back to his group.

“Gunsmile, Indy, we’re leaving.” Krist said.

“What? You can’t leave.” Amp said.

“Our job in this project are making the outline of the magazine. Just send us the picture and we will do it.” Krist said. “You two, let’s go.”

The three left.

                         …………………………………………………

“Boss, what’s wrong?” Gunsmile asks while they are now inside a car that Indy rented.

“Someone kidnapped P’Focus and we need to save her.” Krist said.

“Who will kidnapped P’Focus?” Indy asks while driving.

“I don’t know but her voice is familiar.” Krist said.

“Her? I only know one woman that can do that.” Gunsmile said.

“Cheer.” The three said.

                         …………………………………………………

Focus is not scared since she isn’t tied up at all. She is just in a bedroom but the door is locked.

She doesn’t know who’s behind of all this. But she is sure that Cheer isn’t the leader.

Just then, Cheer came in again.

“Follow me.” Cheer said.

Focus decided to follow her.

Cheer lead her to the room at the end of the corridor on 2nd floor.

There are two guards at the door.

Cheer and Focus enter the room.

“Wait here.” Cheer said and went to the door inside the room.

Focus sat on the sofa while looking around.

There are guards in every corner of the room.

 The light coming from the chandelier is dim.

The thick red curtains are covering the windows.

                         …………………………………………………

Krist, Indy and Gunsmile arrived at the address that Cheer sent.

A guard asked them to follow him.

The guard led them to the room where Focus is waiting.

Focus stands up and run towards them when they enter the room.

“P’Focus, are you alright?” Krist asks.

Focus nodded.

Just then, Tay and his friends arrived.

“What are you doing here?” Krist asks.

“We are invited here.” Tay said.

“By who?” Krist asks.

Before Tay answers him, Cheer and a man came out.

“You?” Focus said.

“Yes, it is me.” Oh said.

“What is the meaning of this?” Focus asks.

“I called you all here because of one thing.” Oh said. “Join me against other gang groups in Thailand and let’s rule all the gangsters of Thailand.”

Krist smirked.

“What makes you think that the Red Blood Gang will join you?” Krist asks.

“Well, you are not there if it wasn’t for me.” Oh said. “Isn’t it time for you to repay my help?”

“That was long ago. Besides, I regret what I did that time.” Krist said.

Krist holds Focus’ hand and they left along with Indy and Gunsmile.

“What now?” Tay asks.

“Plan B.” Oh said.

                         …………………………………………………

“P’Focus, are you alright?” Krist asks while inside the car.

They already left Oh’s mansion.

“Yes.” Focus said. “Is it true that you regret what you did that time?”

“Yes. I shouldn’t have done those things. Because of me, P’James is dead.” Krist said.

“I’m glad you realize that what you did was wrong.” Focus said. “But what is your plan now? I am sure Oh will do something.”

“Honestly, I don’t know. But I am sure that he is planning something.” Krist said.

“Boss, have you noticed the symbol on his jacket?” Gunsmile asks.

“Yes. It is the symbol of Red Dragon Mafia.” Krist said.

“Mafia?!” Focus said.

“Yes. When I saw that earlier, I am sure that his target isn’t only the gangsters. He is aiming on something big.” Krist said.

                         …………………………………………………

Pop, Tor, Sky and Tae are waiting for Singto outside the Red Fountain Academy.

When, they saw him coming with a girl, they approached them.

“Are you Prachaya Ruangroj?” Pop asks.

“Yes. And who are you?” Singto bravely asks.

“I’m Napat Chokejindachai.” Pop said.

“If I am not mistaken you are known as the Vihokratana’s Pride.” Singto said.

“Vihokratana? You’re not talking about the Vihokratana International Academy?” Gypso asks.

Pop smirked.

“Glad you know me.” He said.

“What do you want?” Singto asks.

“Your boyfriend, Perawat Sangpotirat, has a debt to us and we are here for that debt.” He said.

“Why don’t you see him? Leave us alone.” Singto said.

Pop walks towards him.

“You will pay that debt.” He said and punches Singto to his stomach.

Gypso screamed when Singto fell on his knees.

“P’Singto!” Gypso said. She was about to help her when Pop talks.

“Sky! Tor! Hold that girl!” Pop said.

The two guys came to Gypso’s side and hold her arms.

“Sky, this girl is pretty. Shall we make fun of her?” Tor asks.

“I agree.” Sky said.

“After this, you can have fun all you want to her.” Pop said and kicks Singto that made Singto lie on the ground.

“Tae, it’s your turn.” Pop said. “Make him not to stand up.”

“No problem.” Tae said in English.

Tae grabs Singto’s hair and pull him up and punch his face.

Gypso screams again.

“Stop it!” she shouts. “Help! Help!”

They are near at the gate of the academy so the guards might heard them.

……………………………………………………

“Hey!” Pop heard Hunz and Amp.

“Someone’s coming. Let’s go.” Pop said and walks away.

The three followed him.

Gypso quickly check on Singto.

“P’Singto.” Gypso worriedly said.

“Gypso!” Hunz and Amp called her.

“P’Hunz! P’Amp!” Gypso said.

Hunz runs towards her and hugs her.

Amp felt jealous but ignore it.

“We need to take him to the hospital.” Amp said.

……………………………………………………

August went to the Vihokratana International Academy and find Tay. It wasn’t long to find him.

“Why did you hurt my brother?! This is not part of the plan.” August said.

“Our plan is to make Krist leave Singto and we can only do that if we hurt Singto. I’m sure that right now Krist is thinking to leave Singto now.” Tay said.

“Make sure that this will be the first and last time you will hurt my brother.” August said and left.

……………………………………………………

Krist visited Singto in the hospital after he learned what happened to Singto.

“I’m sorry. This is all my fault.” Krist said.

“Don’t apologize. Besides, I am thinking that those guys did this to me because they want something from you.” Singto said. “And whatever that is, don’t give them.”

“But what if they hurt you again?” Krist asks.

“They won’t.” August said from the door.

August walks towards them.

“Hurt him again and the College Student Council will do anything to punish them. And besides, if you are really concern about my brother, stop getting close to him. It is your fault why he got hurt.” August said.

“P…” Singto said.

“What? That’s the truth! That’s what you get for being friends with some gangsters!” August yells.

“You talked like you never-” Krist didn’t finished what he said.

“Like what?” Singto asks.

“Let’s talk outside.” August said to Krist.

……………………………………………………

August and Krist went to the rooftop of the hospital.

“You don’t want your brother to know that you used to be a gangster.” Krist said.

“Singto doesn’t need to know.” August said.

“But there is something bothering me.” Krist said. “That day.”

“What are you talking about?” August asks.

“That day when the three gang groups came to fight. I didn’t saw you there.” Krist said.

“And so what?” August asks.

“Is it coincidence or you are there but just hiding?” Krist asks. “If you didn’t know, until now no one knows who killed Mek’s brother.”

“Are you accusing me of killing someone?” August asks. “Better watch your words. I can sue you for defamation.”

“I am not accusing you.” Krist said. “Anyway, just because Singto hurt it doesn’t mean that I will distance myself to him. Not gonna happen.”

“Why are you so close to my brother? What is really your relationship to him?” August asks.

Krist smirked.

“He’s mine. I’m his.” Krist said and left.

……………………………………………………

August came back to the room.

“What did you talked about?” Singto asks.

“I told him to stay away from you.” August said.

“But-”

“No more buts.” August said. “If you don’t, I might tell to CEO March to expel them.”
