Third Person POV

Namtan Daichapanya was the first to start the confrontation.

"Whose baby is that you're holding in your arms?" she asked her husband angrily.

Pirapat Intochar pulled at her arm lightly and said, "That's my son, honey."

"Honey?!?!?" Both Harit Daichapanya and Diana Kreepolrerk-Intochar asked in unison in an accusing tone of voice.

Pirapat and Namtan had the grace to blush.

"Why is everybody shouting?" Nobody had noticed that Ming had stepped out of the car.

"Ming, would you like some ice cream?" Pirapat asked Ming to distract him.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Ming exclaimed. Pirapat's diversionary tactics had worked.

Pirapat handed some bills to his driver and instructed him to bring Ming to the ice cream parlor close to the park and to keep him there until he called the driver on his cell phone.

"I think it's time we brought some things into the open," said Pirapat after Ming and the driver were safely out of hearing range.

He held out his hand to Harit and said, "I am Pirapat Intochar and that is my wife Diana who's standing very closely to you right now, and that is my son Kit whom you're holding in your arms. Is there something that you and Diana would like to tell me?"

The gentle voice of Pirapat was Diana's undoing. She broke down and started to cry.

"Pirapat, Kit is not your son. He is my and Harit's son," said Diana in a faltering voice.

Namtan's knees seemed to buckle as she held onto Pirapat's arm for balance.

"When did this happen? How did you even meet each other?" asked Namtan, her voice almost in a whisper.

"He was one of our accountants in our company," said Diana, looking only at Pirapat, as if it was only to Pirapat that she wanted to explain, "I met him long before you and I were introduced to each other by our parents. I fell in love with him, and in fairness to him (this time Diana was looking at Namtan), he tried his best to avoid me but I seduced him one night and Kit was the result of that one night. Not long after, our parents introduced Pirapat and me to each other but I was too scared to tell anyone that I was already carrying a baby."

Before anyone could stop her, Namtan started hitting her husband willy nilly, hitting Kit as well in the process. Kit started to cry and Harit turned around so that it was his back that became Namtan's punching bag.

Diana quickly took Kit from Harit to make sure that he was safe from further harm.

Pirapat stood speechless trying to process what Diana had just confessed to him.

Pirapat seemed to be deep in thought before pulling Namtan away from Harit.

He turned to Namtan and said, "I think you better confess to your husband as well."

Namtan looked down on the ground before saying, "Harit, Mingkwan is Pirapat's biological child."

Harit raised his hand to strike Namtan's face but Pirapat was able to hold him back.

"Give your wife a chance to tell her side of the story," he pleaded with Harit.

"I'm waiting," Harit said grudgingly.

"Long before I met you, Pirapat and I knew each other. I was the librarian in the university where he was studying. We were in love but we had to see each other secretly because his parents would never approve of our relationship. They wanted him to marry someone of the same financial status as him," Namtan paused to catch her breath.

"I was almost two months pregnant with Ming when you met me and courted me and eventually proposed to me. I could not tell you then that I was pregnant so I had to make you believe that Ming was your son."

Harit shook his head dazedly.

"I never questioned why he was born prematurely. I just trusted you because I loved you so much," his voice caught in his throat, "I thought you loved me too......" his voice trailed off as he walked away.

Namtan tried to go after him but Pirapat pulled her back.

"Stay here," said Pirapat, "let me talk to him."

"Listen to me, Harit," said Pirapat, grabbing Harit's wrist.

Harit's first reaction was to swing his arm away from Pirapat's hold but after he did that, he stood still and said, "What do you suggest we do now. You have my son and I have yours."

"I will make sure that Mingkwan never wants for money. I will put up a trust fund for him and will give you the authorization to withdraw from it each time you need money for his expenses. But we should never ever expose to the world the source of his paternity, just as I will make sure that Kit's paternity will never be revealed to him nor to anyone else. Kit will be provided the best health care and the best education, the best of everything for that matter, so don't ever worry about his welfare and well being. The good thing about their situation is that they will be living with their biological mothers so they will be assured of real maternal care."

Harit never once met Pirapat's eyes while Pirapat was talking. He just kept looking ahead but was listening intently to every word that Pirapat said.

When Pirapat did not get any reaction from Harit, he said,"I will put together an affidavit stating that we will both keep the paternity of Kit and Ming strictly confidential. We will both sign it and have it notarized, making it legal and binding. The affidavit will also state that violation of the secrecy will cause the offending party to face litigation and serious penalty."

"Also from now on, we will prevent our wives from holding clandestine meetings with either one of us because doing so will only confuse the boys. They will grow up looking at us as the real father and we will look upon them and treat them as real sons."

Finally, Pirapat noticed Harit nodding his head.

"I will call you to let you know when the affidavit is ready and where we will meet to sign it and have it notarized," said Pirapat, handing his phone to Harit so that he could enter his number on it.

After Harit had done so, he handed his phone to Pirapat and Pirapat did the same.

Then Harit walked over to Diana and took Kit from her. He held Kit tightly, sobbing softly, and after what seemed an eternity, he handed Kit back to Diana.

While Harit had been holding Kit, Pirapat had instructed his driver to bring Ming back to him.

Ming had some smudges of ice cream around his mouth. Pirapat took out his handkerchief and cleaned off the smudges.

"Why are you crying, uncle?" Ming asked Pirapat innocently.

Pirapat did not answer. He couldn't even if he wanted to. He gave Ming a tight hug and took him by the hand and handed him over to Namtan.

"Please treat him well always," he whispered and then quickly climbed into his car.

Diana made sure that Kit was buckled safely in the back seat of her car before driving away.
