Part 3 The world is round like a snake eat itself

**This part has a bit of violent**

Nung and I walk to the infirmary room. Both of us look around for the nurse, but it looks like the nurse isn't here, Nung quickly walk to the cabinet and grab all of the stuff that he needs... Well, it more like stealing anyway. I don't blame him for making this decision, a stranger was about to go to his home anyway.

30 minute earlier

Nung, Tongkam, and I were walking to the parking lot inside our school since I and Nung drive a motorbike to school and Tongkam is Pillion. While walking Nung look at Tongkam and said.

"Hey, why don't you go to the front gate of the school and wait for me there I'll get the motorbike and pick you there it just way faster, plus me and Six have something to do."

Tongkam then said.

"Is that so?"

Tongkam look at Nung's eye and said.

"Is there something that I don't know?"

Then Nung says.

"No, nothing and don't worry about it, my overprotective little brother."

Nung said that as he winks to Tongkam. Tongkam let out a sigh and say.

"Alright alright, I trust you. But please don't hesitate to tell me if you something's wrong."

Tongkam now walks in a different direction heading to the front gate, I'm sure that he knows something's up but he respects Nung's privacy and didn't want to ask anything further than that. While we were walking halfway to the parking lot Nung look at me and said.

"Hey Six, let go to the infirmary room."

I was surprised by his word so I ask him.

"What? Why? You have lots of cut scars right? If the nurse sees it then it will be lots of trouble. Or did I get something wrong?"

Nung looks at me and sighs.

"Haaah, You really have no idea Six. I didn't want to go there because I want the school nurse to treat my wound. Instead, I will steal some stuff inside that room and do it myself. That's a good idea right?"

I look at him dead in the eye asking myself is he serious but from the way that he talks and the movement of his body he's dead serious.

"Nung are you serious? We could get into big trouble you know."

I said that as Nung quickly replies.

"Nope, don't worry. The nurse isn't inside the room right now. How do I know? Easy, I saw her sitting on a bench beside the science room, and I'm certain that the infirmary room right now is empty since no one in this school is good at it than her. But sometimes there will be another teacher helping her do stuff."

I listen to Nung talk about how the infirmary room work and operates. He knows a lot about it.

"So that's why this is the perfect time for us to go inside and get some stuff. Well, you might say that it's stealing and it is bad, but it more like self-service you know. Because when there is no one inside the room, we students have to do stuff by our self but we have to write our name in the book just to let the school nurse know too. The thing is I will not write my name I don't see the point of doing it anyway, and well everything that I said also on the poster inside the room. Plus you don't really want to come into my house too right? You just said that because you didn't think about it thoroughly and said whatever your mind wants to say, and I was also joking anyway. Well, let's not waste our time and go."

He knows... Wow. I didn't even speak a word out and Nung already runs toward the infirmary room and heads inside. So I left with no choice but to follow him inside, maybe it was better this way who knows.

Present

"Nung I have a bad feeling about this can you hurry up a bit."

I said that to Nung with a worried voice. What he said that self-service might be true since it said it right here in this poster. But still, it feels like we were stealing something.

"Jeez, don't worry and trust me okay?"

He said that as he grabs everything that he needs.

"Okay, got everything now. Now follow me."

Nung walk to the storage room inside the infirmary room, he opens it and walks inside, I follow him inside and after that, he closes the door. Inside the storage room, there's a window, when I look at it I can see the boy and the girl dorm from here. I can see outside but anyone from the outside can't see me here because this window has a perforated with a forest picture stick outside of the window, so anyone outside can't see what I'm doing here. While I was looking outside Nung lift his shorts up to look at the wound.

He began to take the paper tape out slowly, I can clearly see his wound and it's kinda deep but not deep enough to be life-threatening. Nung put his hand out gesturing to me to give him something.

"Tissue please."

I quickly grab the tissue from my chest pocket and give it to him.

"Here."

He grabs it from my hand and now he picks up a bottle of water from his bag, it's half full, and now he pours a little amount of water into the tissue and begins to wipe the blood from his thigh, it may still bleeding but it didn't bleed that much anymore. After that, he picks up a square shape gauze that he takes from the cabinet and puts it onto his wound with some pressure, then he picks up another one. Now it's the one that looks like toilet paper, he rolls it out and starts warping around this thigh.

"You pretty good at this. So you know how to do it?"

I asked that to Nung.

"Lol, no. I just read it from the internet."

He what? This guy is unbelievable, and did he just say, "Lol"? He really is weird. Nung keeps treating his wound and he finally finishes it.

"Now, you happy? I treat my wound. I will clean it again after I got home and if you are still worried that I will do it or not then I will send you a picture of it, or maybe a video."

He said that as he looks at me in the eye with that beautiful light pink eye of his. I blush a bit.

"F-fine, but could you please stop staring at me like that."

I said that as I look away.

"Hahaha alright alright, my bad. Also sorry about what I said."

Nung apologizes to me for something, but I don't know what is it.

"What you said?"

I asked.

"Yeah duh, it's that moment that I said, 'what did you think that I just **** her.' in the art room. My mind just became blank after what happen so you can't really blame me for it."

I sigh after I heard what he said.

"Alright, whatever, I don't mind it. It also my fault due to my own curiosity. Well let get out of here quick, I don't want the nurse to come back in here and found us like this, she might get the wrong idea."

Nung nodded. Both of us walk out of the storage room and get out of the infirmary room. Nung and I now walk to the parking lot. We arrive and get our motorbike. Nung got to his bike first then I got to mine. He starts his bike and drives to me.

"Hey six, so where do you live."

I was confused as to why he ask me but I didn't think much about it and answer him.

"Uh... Well, I have to pass the school front gate and go straight until I get to the Intersection then I turn right and then left into the North star alley you can't miss it because it has a big hat statue there, after that, I have to drive past a fried rice restaurant which is really good and tasty by the way you should try it out sometime, maybe with me, I will invite you. Then after I passed that restaurant I have to go straight until I hit the dead end and my house is there on the left with a big white dog."

Nung then looks at me and laughs.

"Ah... Ha ha... HA HA HA HA HA HA."

I look at him with a confused look on my face.

"So you're that girl, that devours my mom fried rice like there will be no tomorrow."

I blush really hard because I didn't expect him to be that restaurant owner's son! my face is like a tomato now because of how he uses his word. If he says this to his friend it just sounds like me eating like a mad dog and it's embarrassing.

"T-t-that was your house?! And that was your mom?!"

I say that but when I think about it now the owner actually did mention that she has a handsome son. And talk to me a lot but I didn't pay any attention to her since the food is so good.

"Yeah, well now I guess we ain't that far from each other. So how about we go home together?"

Wha-what? Nung invite me to go home together? But it's nothing much to expect since both of us live in the same area anyway.

"A-alright fine."

I said that as I blush so hard like a tomato, while Nung looks at me like he was teasing me.

"Well Six, anyway... Uhh... Thank for caring about me even though we're basically a stranger that just got to know each other recently. It's not like no one care about me okay? Tongkam knows about this and becomes a bit protective of me from time to time. While my mom doesn't know about this she still tries her best to make money and make both Tongkam and me happy. I just say this just in case, because there might not be a chance to say this anymore, so thank you again Six."

What he said just now sends a chill down my spine, it just like this is the last time I will see him or something. I don't know how to respond so I get out of my bike and walk to Nung. I grab his shoulder and say.

"Hey, hey don't ever say that again you hear me."

After I said that I hug Nung. Nung also hugs me back.

"Oh, brother Nung I didn't notice that you were quite a lady killer huh?"

Both of us jolt and quickly release each other embrace. I and Nung look around and see Bai and Sushi walk together looks like they were going to the bus stop at the back of the school.

"Hey kid, it's not what you think okay. And please don't tell King about this. That guy will tease me about this."

Nung said. Sushi and Bai just nodded.

"Well, we will go now, bye brother Nung bye sister Six."

Bai said that as she walks away while Sushi wave at us. Nung and I both say goodbye at the same time.

"Bye-bye, and good luck."

Then Nung look at me and said.

"Well, shall we go too then?"

I nodded. I start the engine and drive with Nung to the front gate of the school. Nung drive to where Tongkam waits and then after he picks him up we start to drive back to our home. I can hear Tongkam talking but I don't know what is he talking about, he probably asking him why does it take him so long to get his motorbike. But Nung just shrug and didn't say a word, but I did hear Nung talk about where I live to Tongkam. Both of us hit the first intersection and it's red light so we wait.

The cloud starts to get darker and darker, looks like it going to rain. I was about to ask Tongkam about something but the light change from red to green so I decided to ask him later. Nung finally reaches his home, Tongkam gets down and head inside first. Nung shut off his motorbike and move his arm gesturing me to stop my bike near him.

"Hey, I'll tell you my number. So get your phone out."

Nung give me my number and said.

"I'll send it to you, don't worry."

Now I'm lost, why did he give me his phone number instead of Linking the app that everyone uses to message each other.

"Just so you know it gives you that kind of vibe when you send a message this way, but well I'm fine with Linking too, so just give me your ID when you head back home through the message."

Oh, so he's that type of person. Judge from the way he explains it.

"Alright, well see you later then."

I said that as I went back home. I send Nung a thumb-up meme picture that I save on my phone to him and he replies with a cute anime girl face saying hi.

-"I'll change first okay? After that, I will send you the video, picture, to prove that I do it. Or would you prefer a video call?"

Nung texted me.

-"Well, anything is fine."

I texted back to him.

-"K."

He replied to me. After a while, he sends me a video of him cleaning his wound. Nung takes the gauze out and gets a wet towel soaked with water and some soap and cleans around the area, avoid touching the wound. Watching him cleaning his wound is somehow very calm. After that, he applied himself a new gauze on his wound and throw the old one away which I think is wasted, but I guess it would be better this way.

-"There you go everything is done."

His voice comes from the video, after that the video end. I text to him.

-"Good job! Good boy!"

Nung reply back.

-"Yes thank you, master."

-"Now I will do my stuff now if you don't mind (─‿‿─)."

Oh, he will do his stuff now huh? Ahh, I still want to ask something but... Ah, whatever ever I just ask him right away.

-"Hey, is it fine if I ask you one more stuff before you go?"

Nung then replies.

-"Fine then."

I quickly type and send it to him

-"Could you tell me why did you cut yourself? Like it, just bad thing to do, and most of the people who did it also depressed so you must have a reason for that right?"

Nung reply back to me.

-"Six, don't you think that you already know too much? Maybe it's waaaaay too much. We both just know each other and you have been asking a lot of questions and also breach my privacy too. Maybe you should just stop, for now. To tell you the truth you're making me starting to feel paranoid now because you know way too much for someone that I just met."

-"So just give me some space. And don't tell anyone about this."

Oh shit. Look like I ask too much.

-"Ahh sorry, I really cross the line there I'm sorry. But don't worry I will not tell anyone about this at all you have my promise."

Nung replies to me back with a picture of a guy smiling but it distorted so much that it looks funny. I should think before I say or act more, this is bad. It just looks like Nung just got mad at me... Great work Six. Let just hope that Nung doesn't get mad at me even if he do I hope that he will forgive me.

At Nung house

"Big bro, may I come in?"

Weird... My brother didn't respond. I tried to twist the doorknob. it's not locked... I open the door and called out his name but I don't see him anywhere. Maybe he was inside the toilet in his room? As I think about it Nung walks out of the toilet and looks at me in the eye.

He breathes heavily and fast... The gaze that he gives me is like he wants to strangle me to death... from the look of it, he was keeping his emotion inside for some time now and all of those feeling is probably going to burst out! My big brother realizes that he has been looking at me for a certain amount of time so he looks away.

"Get... Out..."

I'm glad that mom is not home right now or else this could be big trouble. I refuse to get out and walk to Nung and ask.

"No big bro, I want to know what's wrong. So that I can help."

To tell the truth I know where is this going, my big brother, Nung has this weird thing about him. When he feels any emotion more than he can take, he will start to breathe heavily and starting to seek out something violent to do. Either harm himself... or harm others.

This all happen because of his girlfriend's death. All he did is blame himself until one day, he just suddenly changes and becomes like this... it's like there are two of my big brother in one body. And now I know that he is unstable... I want to help him the way I could... Just like always. He always helps and protects me when I was just 5...

So I just want to help him when I can, but help him this way every time isn't a good thing at all... It just like I encourage him to do it more... Plus I could get myself killed... I ask him once to see a therapist but he refuses, and he doesn't want me to tell this to mom too.

"Tongkam... I want to be alone right now, so please."

Nung asks me to get out, but I refuse. I slowly walk closer and closer to him. I look at him in the eye.

"It's okay now, I'm here you can just let it out."

Nung violently grabs me and pulls me to the bed. he breathes heavily more and more. He grabs his pillow and presses it against my face.

It was really hard to breathe, then I feel something heavy hit my face and my chest again and again and again and again. I feel like I'm about to pass out. my face didn't hurt much because the pillow is really thick, but it really hard to breathe but my chest is really hurt. Then he stops... I push the pillow away so that I can breathe. I cough a bit.

I saw Nung cried like a baby in front of me. then he lies down on the bed next to me, crying. I hug Nung and said.

"Don't worry big brother, everything will be okay. You're getting better day by day now."

Nung who cries like a baby now stops crying and falls asleep. He must be tired. Plus every time this happens he tends to have a bit of a headache too.

"TONGKAM, IS EVERYTHING OKAY IN THERE?"

Shit, mom is home. I should lie to her.

"YES MOM, NUNG JUST FALL FROM THE BED."

Then my mom says back to me.

"OKAY, THEN I'LL MAKE DINNER FOR BOTH OF YOU SO WAKE HIM UP IN ABIT KAY?"

I reply.

"YES, MOM."

What a day. All of this happening is probably because of her... Six... I know she means no ill but if she keeps doing whatever she's doing then things might have become worse and worse, but it looks like she already knew something about Nung, let just hope that this is not true. Well, I need to look after my big brother.

No matter what, this time I will take care of you. Like you always do to me.
