Chapter 7

The Carp Fish from the Moon

"The fish in the water couldn't fly upon the sky,

but the fish on the moon could dive to the ground."

I got P'In's signature! This was my first senior signature and Unistar's signature too!

I heard that the fans could only get Unistar's signature from the fan meeting, or they must pass through the crowd to reach the Unistar. And getting that Invisible P'In's signature was exclusively rare, as the one who was only able to meet at the fan meeting, with the longest queue.

P'In's signature!

I glanced at my book, excitedly, still couldn't believe that I really got his signature. This actually made me forget other things.

The reason why P'In signed for me, probably, because I sacrificed a page of my book for him to fold the carp fish. I was initially shocked when the paper was torn, but now it was worth it.

But...carp? I felt curious. Why did P'In like to fold the carp?

Who could answer this question? I was thinking of my true friend — Google — who knew everything. Then, I searched on my cell phone.

'IN Unistar fold carp fish'

I found many fans posting on Twitter, many of them tagged @intrakorn and said that they wanted to get the carp from P'In too. Some even named P'In 'Nong Carp', some also practiced folding and posted photos with a caption - they could do it because of P'In. Extremely crazy fans, even wore a carp fish costume.

I finally found the video on YouTube that was uploaded by MW Entertainment.

UNISTAR SHOWTIME following the life of the moon - episode: IN and his carp fish.

I connected my cell phone with the university Wi-Fi to download the video. It started with interviewing the other Unistar Member, similar to the previous one that I had watched.

The first person was P'Leo.

Interviewer: Many fans have been wondering. Why does N'In like to fold the carp fish?

Leo: N'In? Well, since I knew him, he always uses the paper to fold it whenever he's free. But I need to be careful because sometimes — No! N'In! That's P'Kwang's money!

The camera moved to P'In, who was about to tear a thousand baht banknote for weaving into a carp. His face was seeming numb, didn't even realise he was doing anything wrong.

Then, a small figure man walked in and asked P'Leo what was happening.

Leo: P'Kwang, N'In was trying to fold the carp with your money //His face looked concerned.

Kwang: What? no way you can't! That's the money for everyone's food. //Turning to P'In with shock, accordingly, P'In returned the banknote.

Interviewer: PD Kwang almost needs to pay yourself, right? //Laughing

Kwang: Sigh... //facepalming.

I heard the MC called P'Kwang as 'PD'[1]. If I wasn't wrong, this person might be Kwang, the producer that everyone mentioned. PD Kwang was the supervisor of the Unistar project and participated in member selection. Many successes of this UNISTAR project had to give credit to him. Although he was small and young, he had such a high ability.

Then, the scene was cut to the next person, P'Sea.

Sea: N'In? I did ask him. He said he felt relaxed when folding. Probably, it could help N'In to release stress, like people who like gritting teeth, shaking their legs or chewing gum.

Interviewer: And what about you? Is there anything you like to do the same way as N'In?

Sea: Me? well, maybe spinning a scalpel?

Interviewer: //her face suddenly became pale.

Why was P'Sea talking this scary thing with an innocent smile like that? Oh no, I must skip.

Then, the camera moved to P'Natee, the bad mouth one.

Natee: P'In folds carp fish, I can fold the plane. What did you say? It's not interesting? Hey...Why folding the plane isn't cool huh? Look! It's difficult. What? You've already folded a lot. No way! My folding plane is unique.

The cameraman seemed to be bored, so he switched to record the surrounding scenery.

Natee: Hey! Wait! I'm here //Pulled the camera back. Record me. I'm folding the plane. You must record everything, do not cut, okay?

All in all, I didn't know anything about P'In from P'Natee at all.

Next, P'Wayu — the unfunny joke player. This time would be something useful or a dumb joke, let see...

Wayu: The reason why P'In like folding 'carp' fish? Because he uses it to eat noodles, oh, that's 'chop' stick not 'carp' stick. Or he must play a movie, using 'clap' film. Hahaha, not funny? Then, because P'In is neat and delicate, he loves doing 'crepe' fabric.

Such a fail understandable homophone joke. but the fans still loved it, as I saw many comments like: 'P'Wayu is funny', 'Love his jokes', 'How can P'Wayu create such amazing jokes //LMAO'.

Well, I didn't think he was funny, but it was funny because he dared to make these jokes!

Interviewer: What's about N'In? Why do you like folding carp fish?

Now the camera moved to P'In who was folding a carp.

In: //Looking up at the camera, and staying still.

Interviewer: Can you tell the fans about this?

P'In seemed to hesitate.

In: Wanna try? //Handing the paper.

Interviewer: Oh, I have to help the Invisible Moon folding now. So then, the Unistar ShowTime will end here. See you next time! Bye Bye.

"What? How can it end like this?" I complained. I did take much effort to watch it.

"Limb - branch - leaf~, chacha~, leaf - branch - limb~..."

I came back to reality when hearing my friends singing to get seniors' signatures in exchange.

I almost forgot that I intend to get P'Noey's signature. I hurriedly queued up, left my book open, my queue arrived, P'Noey signed so quick and done, then the next person came. This method could be worked for a fading person like me.

I already got another signature, I glanced at my book happily. At least, my attempt for today didn't go wasted.

"Freshy, Who wants me to sign, come here quickly, I will leave in 10 minutes, anyone else?" P'Noey was shouting.

"Noey, where are you going?" P'Tong asked.

"Don't you know? I think the first-year will leave soon too, believe me." P'Noey grinned at many first-year female students, they all screamed excitingly.

"Oh! Unistar event..." P'Tong understood immediately.

"Arhh, P'Noey is a Unity too?" One of them asked.

'UNITY' was the official fan club name of UNISTAR, meant the forming of being united, as its name.

"Of Course, I must cheer for my future husband." P'Noey giggled.

"Wow! Who is your bias?"

When it started to be a Unistar topic, everyone was excited.

"Seagull." P'Noey smiled passionately.

"P'Sea!"

Oh right, seemingly, I saw some tweets, the fans called P'Sea as 'Seagull', since P'Sea had bright white skin, pure and innocent look - like seagulls. That was why his fandom was named 'DomSeagull' or 'DomNangnuan' in the Thai language.

"What about you? Which UNISTAR member is your bias?"

"P'In!" "P'Wayu!"

Mostly, these two names were mentioned.

"Oops! Don't tell me, you took the entrance exam here because of these two guys?" P'Noey was teasing the first-year.

Since everyone was planning to go to a Unistar event, the signature collecting activity then changed into Moon idol gossip activity. I heard P'Tong was talking with his male friends about having a meal after and discussing about a buddy-code family activity. Letting all the females follow their idols.

There was a Unistar event today. I thought.

Honestly, I had never been interested in any of these before, however, since I met P'In, I also wanted to know how he would be under the spotlight.

Anyhow, today I had time, I would go.
