""Hey, are you coming?"" "I'm not done yet." "When will you finish?" "We're already drunk." ""OK, I won't be long."" ""Don't bail out, you must join us!"" ""This is our graduation party, you can't ditch us!"" "I'll have to take a few more shots." "Hurry up." "Everyone's all dressed up waiting for you to come take their photos." "Even Pup is dressed up so damn pretty." "And have you gone home yet?" "Don't tell me you're coming in your uniform." "Don't do that okay?" "Nae?" "Can you hear me?" ""Right, I have to go now."" " Boo!" " Goddammit!" "You scared the shit out of me!" "What are you doing here so late?" "Turned on all the light too." "Brother Andre will come and scold you." ""He won't, I already told him."" ""And you, why are you here?"" "Are you in the basketball team?" "Good guess." "You have a game tomorrow?" "You should be in bed." "The game's in Bangkok." "I'll sleep on the bus." "Why are you... taking pictures at this hour?" "There's nothing here." "It's interesting because there's nothing." " By the way..." " Not now." "What do you think?" ""Well, it looks..."" "It looks kinda lonely and sad." "The previous one is better." ""No, that one has a ghost in it."" "But the ghost is quite good-looking." "Oh really?" " Are you done?" " Move over." "I'm going to take some more shots at the soccer field." "You should go to bed." ""Actually, I..."" "I wasn't coming from that side." "Don't kid me." "I'm not." "I'm joking!" ""Damn it, go back to your dorm!"" ""I'm sorry, I won't spook you again."" ""Anyway, they say the soccer field is haunted."" "I'm not scared." "Go away." "You might snap something that's not really there." "Wait!" ""When I was in grade-7,"" "I was addicted to playing marbles." "Back then..." "I was so damn good." "Would've made thousands had I played for money." "Bullshit." "It's true." "Have you ever played?" "No." "So what did you play?" "Nothing." "Badminton?" "No." " Soccer?" " No." "Basketball?" "No." " Hopscotch?" " No." " Radio-controlled toys?" " No." " Cops and Robbers?" " No." "Did you have any friends?" "No." "You're joking?" "Why's that?" "I don't know." "I'm not good at socializing." "I don't know how to approach people." "So you didn't have any friends until high-school?" "I have some." "But... no one close." ""I have no gangs, no pals."" "So what did you do every day?" "I helped out at the audio-visual lab." "I remember now!" "My friends called you 'the paparazzi'." "They hated you." "Hated me?" "Why?" ""When we had school fairs,"" "you always ran around with your camera and attracted all the attention." "So they didn't like you." "I've heard that." ""But damn it,"" "I still made them look good in their pictures." "Who're 'they'?" "My friends." "I don't care now." "We won't see one another again." "I know now why you don't have any close friends." "It's nice." "But..." "No 'but'." "It's really nice." "I'm doing this nocturnal photography because the concept of the series is to show the school at the hours in which you've hardly seen it before." "I want the people to see the empty space so they can fill in the blank with their own stories." "Like when you saw the table near the soccer field and you were reminded of your marbles game." ""If you'd seen that table with people crowding around,"" "you wouldn't have had the memory of your childhood game." "This is so bad." "What?" "This photo when we won the cup." ""I wasn't in it, I'd gone to the toilet."" "The photographer was a prick!" "He should've waited." "I took that photo." "What do you see in this one?" "What?" "You said when people looked at empty space they'd fill in the blank with their own stories." "So what's your story here?" "My story?" "Lots of them." "All in bits and pieces though." "Was the grade-10 exam hard?" "I didn't take it." "I'm moving to another school." "Really?" "Where?" "Tiew Phai Ngam School." "They've taken me on the athlete quota." "Their scout saw me at a basketball match." "He asked me to join them." ""It's a great offer." "They cover tuition fees, dorm and food."" "Lots of benefits." ""What about other top players,"" "like Ter?" "Didn't they approach him too?" "They did." "They scouted both of us." "But eventually our headmaster asked Ter to stay." "He didn't ask me." "Why's that?" "Perhaps because I'm not one of the true-blooded." "I moved to this school in junior high." "Impressive!" "You made it to the team though you just arrived." "Other players had to fight their way from the elementary level." "Maybe that's why they wanted to chuck me." "I'm cool." ""Keep moving, so I'll have a lot of new friends."" "She's a doll!" "This?" "Really?" "You don't think she's adorable?" "So pretty!" "Can I have it?" "Please." "Please." "This is the one thing that makes me want to study here!" "I'm so happy!" "Totally awesome!" "Do you have more?" ""Yes, 5 bucks each." "OK?"" " You're being funny." " I'm not." "I always made a lot of money selling Prae's photos when we had school fairs." "That's why people hated you." "What are you saying?" "Nothing." ""If you really want it, I can send some to you."" "You're not going to study here anyway." "It's a shame!" "Prae doesn't have a boyfriend." "You'll miss your chance when you move." "Are you serious?" "Yes." "Can I ask you a favor?" "What?" "Ask her to go to a movie with me." "Nuts!" "Do it yourself!" "I'm chicken." ""You know her, please help me!"" ""Please, please."" "Tell her that a junior high boy wants to go out with her." "It's not something you can do for someone else." "Come on!" "All right." "I'll set you up to meet her." "Really?" "But you have to ask her out yourself." "I wouldn't have the stomach." "I have an idea." "What?" "Let me know when you're ready." "OK." "Hi Prae." ""What's up, baby?"" " What the hell are you doing?" " I'm playing at being Prae." "I don't think Prae is this slutty." "You don't know her!" "You're exaggerating!" "No way." "Let's do it again." " Go back." " Okay." "Wait." "Can you remove her picture?" " Don't laugh when you look at me." " I won't." "Hi Prae." "My name... is Beam." "I am... in junior high." "I am... about to move to another school." "I'd like to know if... if you'd go to a movie with me." "When?" "Any time." "But if you can tell me now it'd be great." "I don't know when I have to pack up and leave." "Well..." "I really want to go out with you." "I mean it." " Let's stop." " Don't go!" "Just this once." "We won't see each other again." "I..." "I really like you." "Enough!" "Why did you stop?" "I'm totally in my character!" ""If you really talk to her like this,"" "she won't say no." ""I'm irresistible, right?"" "Right?" "Do you have a girlfriend?" "No." "How come?" "You're finishing high school!" "And do you have one?" "It's different." "I'm just finishing middle school." ""You're older, you should already be dating someone."" "I can't see the logic." "Actually I have a crush on someone." ""Like you, I'm too scared to say it."" "Who's she?" "Spill it!" """ "Tell me, please!" " No, I won't."" " Please!" " Don't push me." " Spill it!" " No." " Come on!" " No." " Tell me now!" " No." ""Let me guess,"" "I think your type is big boobs and dynamite ass." "It must be Oil." "Not her." ""Someone tall and slender then, it's Pat, right?"" "No." " Pam?" " No." """ "Mo?" " No."" """ "Ploy?" " No."" """ "Noon?" " No."" """ "Mook?" " No."" """ "Is she a girl?" " No."" "Shit!" "What are you talking about?" """ "Come on!" " What?"" "So what's your type?" "I don't know." ""Please, I won't tell anybody.""

"So who's your crush?" "What?" ""That cute boy in grade-9, right?"" "Dumbass." "Are you done?" "Yes." "Let me see." "Let me move the files from my camera." "Can you stand there?" "Don't you just want the view?" "It'd be nice to have someone in it." "OK." "Are you taking my pictures?" "Yes." "Can you look cool?" "Do you want me to look as cool as Ter?" "Are you jealous that I took a lot of his photos?" "No." "But do you like him?" "No!" "I don't like boys!" "That's a shame." "Ter always plays online game at Joe's shop." "Joe never charges him." "I think Ter likes gay men." "Maybe Joe gives him a blowjob." "And you?" "How many times have you done it?" ""No, I don't like gays."" "I look so crummy." "When the dawn light comes you'll look more handsome." "Will you be here till morning?" "Why not?" "The morning light is sublime." "So what will you study in college?" "Mass Comm." "Where?" ""Chulalongkorn, if I can make it."" ""If you're going to study in Bangkok, we'll see each other there."" "Sure." "And what's your plan after high school?" "I don't know." "I guess I'll keep playing basketball." ""When you make it to the national squad, don't forget me."" "I won't." "But will you remember me?" ""Of course, I will."" "Sure?" ""I've taken a lot of pictures, I can't forget you."" ""After a while when you look at these photos again,"" "you might say 'who's this jerk?" "'" "Why are you so scared of being forgotten?" ""I moved around a lot, never stayed too long at any place."" "It'd be nice... if someone would remember me." ""Give me your email, I'll send the photos to you."" "Email?" "I hardly use it." "I can't remember where I wrote it down." ""Beam, you're here!"" "We've been looking for you all over." "Let's go." "I was around." "I've been helping a senior taking pictures." "This is Ter." "Of course you already knew him." ""Ter, this is..."" "I'm Nae." ""Yes, Nae, he's..."" "Stop!" "He's a photographer." ""OK, let's go now."" "Ready?" "One..." "Two..." "Remember what I told you." "Zoom in." "Don't tell me you eat turtle meat too?" "!" "No." "I do." "Bye." ""No.11, right?"" "Stop it!" "When are you coming back?" "The rest will come next Monday." "But I have to report at the new school." "I don't know when I'll be back." "And the pictures?" "You keep them." "I'll be back." "OK." ""I'll go now, bye."" "Let me hug you."

"Let's go." "I wish you were here to see this." "I'll talk to her." "Thanks." "Madam is here." "Everything OK?" "We need some money for the fuel of the grass cutting machine." "How much?" "Twenty bucks." "OK." "And the blade was broken." "We need a new one." "Can't you use the other two machines?" "We're using them." "But we're behind schedule." "All right." "I'll take care of it." "What's the blade's number?" "I can't see the number." "It's all worn off." "I'll look up in Jaras's notebook." "He must have written it down somewhere." "What's up Solae?" "Can I ask for an advance on my salary?" "What for?" "My son knocked up a girl." "What?" "How did he do that?" ""He did it the usual way, ma'am."" "Now what." "That's his favorite boy." "Never thought it'd come to this." ""Where's the notebook, Jaras?"" "This one." "IS IT RAINING TODAY?" "It isn't!" "It's the dry season now." ""This is your favorite game, right?"" "Just tell me... the blade number." "I WANT CHICKEN RICE" "SICK OF LIQUID FOOD" "No problem." "I'll send that to you." "Grass cutting blade no. 11" "You can get it from..." "Suriyo Hardware." "That's it!" "Tell me what you want to eat." "I'll make an offering to you." "What's this!" "Jaras!" "Look what you've done!" "You want beer?" ""I can't offer you alcohol, the monks won't have it!"" "Let's have something else." "Anything else is fine." "Just tell me." "I'll make merit for you." "Hello..." "OK" "See you tonight." "Bye." "Jan..." "Come with us." "Where will you take the flight?" "The flight leaves from Chiang Mai." "Really?" "I thought it'd be from Bangkok." "In that case I can visit Som and Maew." "You miss your children." ""Ask them to come along, it'll be fun!"" "I don't think so." "Let the children do their things." "They're happier staying home on their own." ""We're old, we should find time to enjoy ourselves."" ""Right, Jan?"" "I wish I could go with you." "But I don't want to leave the house." "Wow and his wife can look after it." "It's more fun if we all go together." "I really can't." "Jan..." "Jaras has gone for a long time." "You don't need to burden yourself any more." "I know." "But sometimes I still have this feeling... that someone is waiting for me at home." "So I don't want to stay away for too long." "There..." "Look at Kaew." "Her husband left her." "Her child was hit by a car." "And she can come to terms with it." "I feel sorry for her." "She has no one left." "Right." "WHAT'S GONE IS GONE..." "THOSE WHO SLEEP DO NOT WAKE UP" "NARUEPON NIRAWAN 1996-2011" "Jan..." "It's been three days." "My son hasn't returned to me." "His spirit must have been looking for the way home." "I thought you'd already accept it." "Accept it?" "I still don't believe he's gone." "When can I... make myself believe... that my son's really gone?" "Then I can weep for him." "I'm back." "I miss you so much." "I've returned... to be with you." "What do you think?" "Maybe Uncle Jaras is coming back to you." "Right." "But Auntie..." ""If Uncle is going to be reborn,"" "Then..." "I'll have no one to ask for the lotto number." "Chompoo... do you feel healthy?" "I'm fine." "But..." "My skin is getting rough." "I work in the sun all day." "And your period?" "It's regular." "It just came like a waterfall." "And lately... are you two fucking a lot?" "Well..." "Not really." "I usually come home exhausted." "So does he." "We're so beat." "We hit the pillow and sleep like a log." ""But you know,"" "I've tried to entertain the dragon." ""I touch it, caress it."" "I squeeze it." ""I push all the buttons, and it refuses to wake up!"" "That's enough." ""Anyway, Auntie..."" "You should let Wow take a break." ""Since Uncle died,"" "he's worked so hard without rest." "And at night... the ship never enters the dock." ""That's not fair, Chompoo!"" "I did help you." "What?" "You call that 'help'?" "In that case..." "I still have my two best friends." "I can help myself." "Stop it." "Don't talk like that to Auntie." "It's all right." ""You can always talk to me,"" "if there's anything I can help." "I don't know." "It's been a long time... since we last did it." "Now... the cave is all dry and cobwebbed." "It won't open for visitors." "In that case..." ""if you don't feel well,"" "I can take you to the doctor tomorrow." "I'm fine." "I'm just so tired when I get home." "Then... take a day off tomorrow." "Have some rest." ""It's all right, Auntie."" "Do you think he's mad at me?" "Why did he get upset?" "Auntie... will my shop open for business again?" "I'm so scared." "Oh yes!" "Oh yes!" "That's great!" "Harder!" "More!" "More!" "Yes!" ""Wow, don't stop!"" "Not now!" "Come inside me!" "Come inside!" "Don't pull out!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "I can't come back to you." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "Where's Wow?" "He's already gone to work." "I told him to take a day off." "And you're not going to work?" "You said I didn't have to." ""I meant Wow, not you."" "And won't your boss get upset?" "I don't care." """It's going to rain today, tell the men to bring back the pump.""" """I don't want to see the doctor, leave me alone!""" "You must have been so exhausted." "Uncle Jaras couldn't speak but he still barked at you." "What barking?" "Read this." "This is definitely barking!" "What can we do?" ""You'll see for yourself." "The day you get married,"" "you'll become a slave to your husband like I was to mine." "Have you heard... that women get married because of love." "But men..." "These cows are so damn lucky." "Standing in the sun all day and they don't get tanned at all." "Chompoo." "Yes." "Gather these letters and notebooks and put them in a box." "Are you throwing them away?" "Won't you feel bad doing that?" "I'm not throwing them away." "I just don't want to see them lying around like this." "Hey!" "Why are you still reading it?" "Put it away!" "Look!" "Uncle is scolding me!" "DON'T LISTEN TO CHOMPOO." "SHE'S A DIMWIT" "What have I done to him?" "!" "I've told you to put it away." "Stop reading it." "Uncle Jaras..." "You shouldn't mess with the living." ""If I see these again,"" "I'll burn them to ashes." "Just watch me!" ""I don't get this, Sila."" "He already paid that amount back to you." "That amount is that amount." "I've just found out about this unpaid due." ""Jaras still owes me $1,500."" "Let me get this straight." "I knew Jaras used to borrow money from you." "But he already paid you back." "This is something I can't verify." "And now I have no way of asking him." ""This is your account book, with your handwriting."" "No signatures or anything." "Are you saying I'm making this up?" "I don't know." "I propose that... we consider all debts cleared." "Jaras has already gone." "So this is what you've become." ""When he had no money for his children's school fees,"" "he came to me." ""For his car installments,"" "he came to me." "Now you propose that I forget all of this." "Let me ask you frankly." "The life insurance money his government pension" ""plus the earnings from this business,"" "isn't that enough to pay me?" "I'm in a tight spot." "I want my money back." "And you're telling me to forget it?" "Why are you not working?" "I was about to call you." "The water pump is broken." "And the grass cutting blade didn't fit." "It's a wrong number." "How come?" "It's the same number written in Jaras's notebook." "I don't know." "It didn't fit." "Maybe Uncle Jaras got it wrong." "All right." "Bring the pump to the hardware shop." ""Let them fix it, I'll give you the money later."" "I'll do that." ""Ma'am,"" "can I ask for some more advance?" ""An advance, again?"" "I just gave you some the other day." "The girl's parents aren't happy." "They want more money." ""Yes, I remember."" "Your son has gotten a girl pregnant." ""Yes, ma'am."" "Who're her parents?" "You can tell them to come talk to me." "They don't want money for child care." "They want it for an abortion." "Abortion?" ""Yes, ma'am."" "And you'll let them?" "You know it's a sin!" "It would be my sin too if I gave you the money!" "It won't be your fault." "Stop!" "Do you know how precious a life is?" "It's not easy for a soul to be reborn." "How can you do this?" "You guys are so heartless." "What was that?" "Please." "We're from the same village!" "I really can't." ""You broke the law, I can't let it pass."" "Or I'll break the law too." "Come with me to the district office to pay the fine." "You're not allowed to burn garbage in the municipal area." "I really can't look away." "What happened?" "Auntie..." "They want to fine me." "For what?" "She burnt papers in the house and sent smoke everywhere." "Somebody called and asked me to inspect." "She has to pay the fine at the office." "Chompoo!" "Don't you know you can't burn garbage?" "I know." "I forgot." "And also..." "I can't help it." "Uncle Jaras is so mean to me in those papers." "So I burnt them all." "Burnt them all?" "You burnt all of them?" "Where's the passbook?" "Auntie..." "Let's have dinner." "I've bought some food." "Come in." "Chompoo." "Have you seen Uncle's bank book?" "No." "I never came into this room." "What about in the pile that you burnt?" "It's not in there." "Just those letters lying around the living room." "Auntie." "I'm sorry for burning Uncle's letters." "I didn't mean..." "It's all right." "I'm not angry at you." "Really?" "You don't blame me?" ""If I'm angry at someone,"" "it's my husband!" "God knows how much trouble he's created!" "And now it's me who have to fix them." ""When he was alive, I had to look after him until his last day."" "And now he's left me loads of burden." ""He always comes back to ask for offerings,"" ""But when there's a problem,"" "he never shows up." "Have you ever known... how hard it is to be alive?" "Do you know that feeling?" "Have you ever felt the pain of having to be alone?" "Of missing you so much." "Tomorrow..." "Burn all these letters." "I don't want to see them any more." "From now on the dead should be with the dead." "Auntie." "What?" "Is this what you're looking for?" "GET ME A PACK OF BEER" "Did he ask you to buy some beer?" "Jaras must have received the offerings you've made." "Put your mind at ease." "And please take the beer back." "I can't keep it." ""Yes, sir."" "Father Abbot." "I'd like to ask you whether..." "Jaras will soon be reborn." "That I cannot answer." "It's the matter of his karma and the good deeds you've shared." "It also depends on his prayer and his spiritual willpower that will guide him to his next life." "And do you know... where he is right now?" "He is... exactly where you want him to be." "Auntie." "Why a big fuss about this passbook?" "Is it that important?" "Of course it is." "It's essential in solving the problems Jaras has caused." "But actually... he didn't really cause that much trouble." "Just forget it." ""The dead is forever gone, it's the living"" "who'll have to untangle the knots left by him." "Chompoo." "What would you do if Wow were killed in a motorcycle accident or something?" "How could you go on?" "I have no idea." "But if that's the case..." "I'd have a new husband." "You can say that because you're young." "But when you get older" ""and you can't just have whatever you want,"" "what will you do?" "We want to believe that... when people are in love... they'd live and die together." "But that never happens." "What happens is... two people in love they live together and death takes one of them away." "It's always like that." "Drive carefully." "Go on." "Wow..." "What's this?" "Let's go." "It's not today!" "It's not!" "HAPPY BIRTHDAY." "MAY YOU FIND ETERNAL HAPPINESS." "This is the heart signal that remains in the body." "The family has to decide whether or not to remove the life support or to wait for the heart to stop." "If it goes on like this" "Dad will never go." "Every time Mom comes in." "His heart signal picks up." "It's been like this since morning." "Should we bring Dad home?" "He can breathe his last at home." "And who'll take care of the body then?" "It'll be complicated." "I don't know." "But Dad has complained about wanting to leave." "Jaras." "Can you hear me?" "I know you can." "This is the time." "Your physical body has crumbled beyond repair." "It can't go on." ""If you struggle to keep it, it will only suffer."" "It will be in pain." "I beg you." "Please leave your body." "No need to worry that we'll have a hard time." "Our family will be doing fine." "The good karma that we've shared has come to an end here." "Everything... that you've done for me" "is the best I can hope for." "I'm so happy... that I've met you... that I've shared this life with you." "And someday... we'll meet again." "We'll be together again." "I ask you... to move on to a better world now." "Attention please." "We've started our descent to Chiang Mai International Airport." "Orient Thai Airlines would like to thank you for flying with us." ""Thank you, and we hope to serve you again in the future."" "Do you know... you're so lucky to have a wedding here?" "Do you realize that?" "No one in our family has ever had this kind of luxurious wedding." "And now look... relatives and non-relatives they're all here." "Look there." "See?" "So they don't really care about me?" ""They're here just to see the resort, right?"" "No!" "Don't take it the bad way." "They're here to congratulate you." "Look." "Look at their faces." "Who's that?" "I'll be back." "Su!" "Ya!" ""Look at you, giggling like a girl!"" ""I miss you so much, how are you doing?"" ""I'm grand, look at me!"" ""Leng, I'd like to thank you for having the wedding here."" "It's what Ya wants." "Where's your hubby?" "Not yet!" "Tomorrow you two will..." "Stop it!" ""Over there, he's talking to Aunt Orn."" "So is he the guy who's also your boss?" "Yes." "The one who never says 'No' to you?" ""Right, I've told you about him before."" "What do you think?" "Good." "I'm happy for you." "All right." ""After this song, the bride and the groom will come up on stage."" "They will give a speech." ""Wait!" "No, sorry!"" "The guest of honor will come on stage first." "You write it down." ""The guest of honor will speak, and his name is..."" ""Liam, you can let others help."" "Mos!" "Hi sis!" "You're here." "Liam's real name is Mos?" "Yes." "Who'd call their son 'Liam'?" "It's just an alias." ""And you, Pae?"" "Your father really named you 'Pae'?" "That's my father's name!" "Beautiful?" "Yes." "Let's take a break." "We'll run through it again." "Sis..." "About the confetti." "The paper shoot." "You want it pink." "But it's not available." "Pick another color." "Choose gold." "Why?" "Because I like it!" "Picture this." "When the confetti comes down in golden flakes they'll sparkle like brilliant stars in the light." "It'll be so awesome!" "Gold..." ""Well, gold?"" "I think... purple would be better." ""To be honest,"" "the gold color... reminds me of Chinese New Year." ""It would be like a celebration for dead ancestors, not a wedding."" "I suggest purple." "It's convivial." "It will make the event more lively." "Trust me." "Come on!" "Just pick one!" "Wait!" "I like both colors." "Gold." "Trust me." "Have I ever let you down?" "I'll go for gold." "OK." "Gold it is." "I'll call the shop." "Look at your brother." "Is this your wedding or his?" "He's so hyper-active." "Running around making sure everything is perfect." "He must have done a million things already." "Will he be all right?" "What's wrong?" "Su..." ""If you have something in mind, tell me now."" ""If something's not right, we can still fix it."" ""You mean, the confetti?"" "No." ""I mean, should I do this or not?"" ""Well, it's your wedding."" "We're here for that." "I'm serious." "I'm dead serious." ""Tell me what you really think, you make it sound as if..."" "this marriage would make me suffer." ""I mean, Leng is..."" "Well..." "Ya!" "Well..." "It's..." "Well..." "Forget it!" "Trouble has arrived!" "What's wrong?" "It's such a long drive and the road made me sick." "Why do you have to do this in the jungle?" "Are you hiding it from people?" "It was a headache just to get here." ""Come on, Ma."" "Calm down." ""It's not that far, and the driver was just a little lost."" ""Easy, Ma."" ""I'm sorry, the road is confusing."" "Where's the map I gave you?" "I lost it." "Go take a rest." "I don't mind if you're having the wedding in Chiang Mai." ""But it's out of the way, and you put a quota on my guests."" "I can't take that." "You said Ya's family is not so big." "So what's this?" "Ma." "Calm down." "We'll talk." "You kids..." "You never thought of respecting your elders or your ancestors." "You only want what you want." ""Seriously, whose idea is this?"" "Yours or your girlfriend's?" ""Stop it, Ma."" "You should take some rest." "We'll talk later." "All right." "Please let me take you to your room." "You'll see it's very luxurious." "Do you understand their accent?" ""No, I need subtitles."" ""Come on, I know you can understand them."" "C'mon..." "Tell me." "Listen..." "Are you all right?" "I'm fine." "Aunt Jan!" "Good afternoon!" "Good afternoon." ""How are you, Ya?"" ""Look at the bride, you're so beautiful!"" "Thank you." ""And you're so radiant, as always."" "Thank you." "Do you like the flowers I've arranged?" ""If you need anything, just let me know."" ""Everything's fine, it's perfect."" "Too bad... your parents didn't live to see you." "I'm so proud of you." "It's nothing to be proud of." "Of course it is." "You're marrying a factory owner." "His brand of mangosteen is so famous." "How do you know?" "Mos told me everything." "I didn't see you for five years." "Mos updated your story in five minutes." "That sounds like him." "Enjoy yourself." "I'll go look at the preparation." "Thank you." "Who's she?" "My mother's friend." "A lot of people have come to help out." "Why didn't you tell his mother that these people aren't guests?" "They're here to help." "They're as close as relatives to you." "She wouldn't understand." "Leng..." "You said you'd already talked to your mother." "I did." "But she was still upset that we're having a wedding here." "I didn't know what to tell her." ""Ma always complains, don't pay attention to her."" "But she seemed really upset." "She could have told me frankly if she was unhappy." "Then what?" ""If she did, would you move the wedding to Phuket now?"" ""I mean, don't stress over it."" "It won't change our plan." "Tonight I'll take Ma to shop at Night Bazaar." "You should hang out with your friends." "Let some steam off." ""After this,"" "I'll call you up on stage." "You start with a general introduction then move on to the script you've written." "The key phrase is..." "'May the guardian angels nurture our love.'" "There will be children dressed up as angels and fairies surrounding the bride and the groom." ""Round and round, around the bride and groom."" "One of them will present you with a bouquet." "Hang on." "So you've got the flowers?" ""Yes, I already ordered them."" "The Canna flowers?" "Yes!" "Don't interrupt me." "I'm not finished." "Then it's the cue for the musicians." "They will go on stage and start playing." "You'll have to look sentimental and dreamy." "The guests may urge the groom to kiss you..." "Kiss!" "Kiss!" "Kiss!" "And you..." "Do whatever." "The band will play some romantic songs." "Meanwhile you should look very impressed." "Surprise!" "Your husband will regret leaving you with us!" "Wait!" "Bottoms up?" "Thanks!" "Hello!" "What?" "I can't hear you." "I'll call you back." "Ya!" "Where's Su?" "I don't know." "Su!" "Su!" "The usual story... he used to say yes to everything." "Su!" "Su!" ""The bride, sit down!"" "That shithead used to agree to what I said." "Then one day..." "Damn it." "I found out..." "That night... when I came home..." "I saw him ironing his clothes." ""The house was a mess,"" "so I told him he should've cleaned the house instead of ironing clothes!" "You know what he did?" "That asshole threw the damn iron at me!" "So you used your saber-tooth to fend it off?" "Dumbass!" ""I ducked, of course!"" "The iron hit the wall and broke to pieces." "It's an expensive model!" "Don't laugh." ""From that day on, he never listened to anything I said."" "Finally he asked for a divorce." "He only agreed to one thing." "He let the child stay with me." ""Let me warn you, Ya."" "That marriage is not the end." "It's just the beginning." "Cheers!" "Bottoms up!" "Let's have fun!" "Why did you let her drink so much?" "Let's pick her up." "Are you sad that your favorite columnist has stopped writing?" "A little." "Still reading this magazine?" "Yes." "You like 'The Saucy Girl' or 'The Chiang Mai Intellectual'." "Guess." "Must be the Chiang Mai writer." "I couldn't believe we would party at Su's house again." "It's been 10 years since..." "Since I finished high-school here." "Last night may have been the last time we could have a good time together." ""Since you've moved to Bangkok,"" "you've lost your northern accent." "I've hardly spoken it." "So... how are you by the way?" "You hung around here till morning." "Won't she be upset?" "No." "We broke up." "You did?" "Why?" "Just..." "It just didn't work." "I could hardly tell." "What happened?" "Nothing." "I just think there must be a reason." "Ya..." "People have more reasons to break up... than they have to fall in love." "Still can't stand that award-winning writer?" "He doesn't contribute to this magazine." "I know." "Remember that incident?" ""Right, you forgot to read that award-winning book!"" "I was so embarrassed." "I almost didn't get the degree because I forgot to read it." "Who'd have guessed it would be in the exam?" ""But if you hadn't helped me with the report,"" "I wouldn't have graduated." "It's nothing." ""If you hadn't helped me with the science report,"" "I would have flunked it too." "I think so!" "You're mean!" "Why did you hit me?" "I haven't asked you to keep your promise." "My promise?" "About the science report?" "I already gave you the tree." "What are you talking about?" "It's not the same." "But anyway... that tree is still alive." "Really?" "Don't say it just to please me." "You can go see it at my house." "The Canna Flower tree." "Ya..." "Do you still remember your promise?" "I do." "And..." "And do you want to keep it?" "Peck..." "I'm getting married today." "Right." "Maybe you won't have a chance to keep it anymore." "I..." "I have to go." "When did you get here?" "Why didn't you send the driver?" "Boss Leng fired him yesterday." "I called you last night to ask what time I should pick you up." ""Be happy, my son."" "You must take good care of your husband." "I can't talk much." "The botox is killing me." ""One, two..."" ""Boss Leng, phone call."" "Who's that?" ""Yes, Aunt Orn."" "Yes." "I'm going now." ""Wait here, I'll be a minute."" "Where are you going?" ""One, two..."" "I mean..." "I have to see some guests off." "They're in a hurry." "Is everything all right?" "What?" "Is everything OK?" "You look tense." "It's nothing." "Did Mos tell you something?" "What's there to tell me?" "Ya..." "Can I talk to you?" "What now?" "About the flowers for the ceremony..." "We didn't send someone to pick them up." "The shop just called." "They've all withered." "Can you choose other flowers?" "It's OK." "Forget it." "I won't need it." "Leng... why did you fire the driver?" "He already apologized." "He just got lost." "Don't you think you over-reacted?" "Now there's no driver." "And the flowers I really wanted were left uncollected." "They've all withered now." "You don't have to shout." "I beg you." ""If you're not happy with something, say it now."" "Don't keep it to yourself then drop the bomb later." ""It may give you the satisfaction, but the consequences are heavy!"" "What do you want me to do?" "You'd better tell me what you're thinking now." "Don't play silent now then dump me at the altar." "If it's like this..." ""let's call this off, OK?"" ""See, I can't make you talk!"" "All right..." "I won't marry you." "I want to be the one who says it." "I don't want you to pull the rug like you did to the driver." ""I kissed a guy this morning, just like Mos told you."" "You don't get it." "Come here." " You don't get it!" "Come here!" "Crazy girl!" "What have you been drinking?" "Ya..." "What did you just say?" "You kissed a guy?" "Were you drunk?" "Wait..." "So..." "You hadn't known..." "No." "I just knew what you said it." "I thought..." "Mos had said everything." "He didn't say a word." "He was under stress." "The girl who would play a fairy suddenly wanted a big raise." "Mos thought he'd spent a lot of money and was afraid to ask more from Boss Leng." "And he didn't want you to know." "He's afraid you'd get upset." "Why did you slap me?" "Don't rub salt on the wound!" "I didn't." "I slapped a mosquito." "We've sent out all the cars to pick up the fairies." "We don't have any left." ""Only a motorcycle, can you ride it?"" "How's it going?" "So what songs you want them to play?" "Hold on." "I'm still not sure." "Not sure?" "It's about to start!" "We've been together for 7 years... and I feel like I don't know him at all." "And you'll go back to Peck?" "I just think that all these years..." "I've never given him a chance." "And do you realize this just now?" "How do you know Peck is a good man?" "We get along." "If we try..." "Come on!" "If he's that good why did you break up with him?" "I didn't." ""When I went to study in Bangkok,"" "we just... drifted apart." "Let me ask you a serious question." "How long did you really know Peck?" "3 years." "And have you ever really spent time with him?" "If two people" ""never actually live together,"" "we romanticize everything." ""In the past 7 years,"" "you and Boss Leng..." ""fought and argued,"" "and you still wanted to get married." "Wouldn't you feel that it's a waste of time?" "I would." "I'm thinking that maybe... the reason I wanted to marry him... was because I only thought about my future." "Maybe... in my heart..." "I never loved him." "I just wanted security in life." "Then it's up to you." "I just want you to think carefully and ask yourself what do you really want in your life?" "If you think..." ""you still have many years ahead of you,"" ""if you want to have a romantic adventure,"" "drop Boss Leng." "And return to Peck." "But if you think..." ""that you're no longer in love with Boss Leng,"" "I want you... to look around... and remember that everything that's happening now" "is because of Boss Leng." "It's because he loves you." "It doesn't start." "You have to turn the ignition." "Leng!" "Leng!" "Leng!" "Leng!" "Leng!" "I'm... back." "Leng." "Will you still marry me?" ""Please, Leng."" ""Please, Leng."" ""Say something, please."" "Please!" "Go get some rest." "Thank you." "Ma'am." "Yes." ""Ma'am, is everything all right?"" ""Yes, thank you."" "Where's Leng by the way?" "Thank you." "I think... err..." "You!" "Go get your boss." ""I just went, ma'am."" "He was having his hair done." "He went on a motorcycle ride." "His hair was a mess." ""If the bride isn't so fussy asking for this and that,"" "we won't have to stand around waiting." "She's complaining about you." "Just let her." "You said your friends would come and help." "So how come my son had to go out on a motorcycle?" "Now she's complaining about your friends." "And look at this... making a servant girl a bridesmaid!" "She's picking on me!" "Ma'am!" "Are you pushing my button?" ""If you're so tired of standing around,"" ""just go get a seat, OK?"" "Do you even know what I'm talking about?" "Get out of here." "I understand every single word you've said." ""Stop, stop, please!"" "Insolent girl!" "Stop!" "Just stop complaining!" "We have a lot of guests here." "This is embarrassing." "We're all southerners here." "Where are you from?" "Phuket." "Phuket girls are pretty." "And pretty girls need to be cool." "Right?" "We're all good now." ""Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!"" ""I'm Sittinan Intawongsa, or Mos as my family calls me."" ""Or Liam, as my friends call me."" "I'm so delighted to have the honor to be the MC on this sweet and unforgettable night to celebrate" ""the wedding between Graiwoot and Preeya, my sister."" ""Before the bride and groom come on stage,"" "I'd like to say a few words." "I believe that love is the most precious thing in this world." ""It's something that rises above fate, above conflict,"" "above..." "The script is pretty lame." "Tonight is my sister's wedding." "Our parents don't have the opportunity to witness it." ""But I've done everything to make sure it's a perfect night,"" ""with as fewest glitches as possible,"" "because I believe that... this will be the single most happy night of my sister's life." ""If there's any mistake, please accept my apology."" ""All right, let's not waste any more time."" "I'd like to welcome you with our first song." "Auntie..." "I'm scared." "Scared of what?" ""Don't be, child."" "I'm scared that everything will collapse." "Scared that Ya will be hurt." "Nothing will happen." "Be strong." "From the day you've entered my life" "I've been waiting day and night" "For our love to shine a light" ""No matter how long, you and I will fight"" "We may grow weak and tired" "But we'll keep on walking the mile" "When we feel like the world's on fire" "It won't make us hurt or cry" ""When it's all over, we will start again together"" "We'll remember when the sun is bright" ""Make a promise, and brave through the night"" "The time will come when the wind can't shake our love" "The time will come when our hearts soar up above" "That day has already arrived" "When we feel that love is light" ""Shining and binding us together, day and night"" "I cannot breathe in here." "Why's that?" "Because only love is in the air!" ""Not funny?" "OK, what kind of bird does the bride bring tonight?"" "A bird?" "Yes." "She's brought a bird tonight?" "Yes." "What bird?" "Lovebirds!" "One more..." "This is the moment we all have been waiting for." "Please welcome the bride and groom on stage." "First I'd like our happy couple to say something about each other." "Let's start with the groom." "Well..." ""Actually, I'm a cruel person."" "My staff at the factory know how cruel I am." "But those who knew were all fired anyway." "They won't have the opportunity to tell you about my cruelty." "So I'm standing here to tell it to you myself." "I can't stand people who keep making the same mistakes." "Yesterday I fired an old driver." "He always forgot to write down a map." ""I kept telling him but he kept making the mistake, so I fired him."" "I've dated Ya for 7 years." "She's made a lot of mistakes." "She's also fussy and overly suspicious" "In fact I should've fired her after the first year." "And this morning... she delivered a masterpiece by committing the most serious mistake in our years together." "But that's what happened." "I'm lucky that she's often made mistakes." ""I'm lucky too,"" "that I have been very patient." "Some of you might be thinking that my attitude only foretells the failure of this marriage." "But I'd like to ask all of you what kind of person you'd like to spend your life with." "Between..." "Someone whom you know she'll make mistakes." "Or someone whom you don't know what kind of mistake she can make." "For me..." "I'll choose... the woman who teaches me... how to forgive." "Because no matter how serious her mistake is..." "I'm ready to forgive her." "And that's because of only one reason." "I'm sure you know what it is." "I do." "I know now!" "Let's go!" "Will the bride say something?" "Say it!" ""Say it now, Ya!"" ""If you can't say it, just kiss him!"" "Kiss!" "Kiss!" ""They're not that fresh, but it's all I could find."" "I wish I could have found more." ""The bride, do something!"" "Kiss him!" "Kiss him!" "Go on!" "Kiss him!" "When you look at the distant sky" "And remember someone you always have in mind" "A thousand words you wanted to say" "But you've kept them inside all these days" "NARUEPON NIRAWAN 1996-2011" "How many times you've seen love fly by and all you do was let out a sigh?" "How many times you're all alone in the cold hoping that love will save your soul?"
