12 MONTHS LATER

I think this coronavirus thing is starting to get scary.

It's spreading worldwide.

It doesn't sound scary to me.

Coronavirus? That sounds like a beer.

2020

Man, I was smart to stockpile masks.

Hey, Mr. MD of Wiman,

do you wanna buy some for your office staff?

They're gonna be hard to find soon.

I'm about to get rich.

You survived the crypto slump,

and now you're investing in masks. Doesn't your girlfriend yell at you?

Nope.

She doesn't yell?

She doesn't stop yelling.

Damn.

All I could tell Mew was, "Just trust me.

If your business goes under,

I'll be the one to hold you up."

Your girlfriend owns a resort in Pattaya.

How are your masks gonna hold her up?

Hey, why isn't Dao here yet?

Is she worse than we thought?

Yeah, right.

What did she eat to get food poisoning?

Oh, Dao's here. I'll let her in.

Dao, are you okay?

Want to go to the hospital?

No.

Hospitals are full of germs.

I'm feeling better now.

No more vomiting, no more stomach pain.

How's it going in Shanghai?

You think they'll lock it down like Wuhan?

I don't know.

But people are all wearing masks.

It feels like some end-of-the-world virus movie.

Isn't it just the flu or something?

Someone said it was no big deal the other day.

Dao,

any word from the embassy on the return paperwork?

Not yet.

But I don't have the energy to follow up.

Yes, Ohm?

Okay.

If there's any update, please let me know.

Thank you.

Ohm again?

What's with this interpreter guy?

He's been calling all the time.

I'm sick. He calls often to check on me.

He just called to say

someone at the office got COVID.

Everyone has to take a PCR test.

If you test positive, you have to quarantine.

Damn.

If you have to quarantine,

how can you come back to Thailand?

Exactly.

Ran, Mira's done with the meeting.

Okay.

About those popular restaurants we wanted to bring on exclusively,

I've locked in five already.

But we'll need to offer them some promotions,

since they're missing out on other platforms.

Still, I think it's worth it.

If you're okay with it, go ahead.

And I'll have the design team update the UI layout too.

Okay.

As for the ride-hailing feature,

I'm thinking of tying it more to food delivery.

I'll think about that later.

Sure.

Are you still dreaming about work in your sleep?

You can let the team handle some of this, you know.

It's fine.

I can handle it.

I already reserved a table for lunch.

You can go and wait at the restaurant.

I'll go down when I'm done.

No worries.

I'll wait and go down with you.

It's okay. Go ahead. I'll follow soon.

Okay.

You're working with your ex. It's normal that the new guy is jealous.

It feels like karma coming full circle.

But Dao was never my girlfriend.

you were way worse than Tle.

Ran!

Go on,

before the kid gets moody.

Hey!

THREE MONTHS AGO

Thanks, Tle.

See you.

The foundation came by today to pick up the baby stuff.

You donated it?

Why didn't you tell me first?

What's the point of keeping it?

It's not like we'll use it.

Why wouldn't we? We'll have another baby one day.

Mira,

I told you,

we can start over.

Can you really do that, Ran?

Why wouldn't I?

Stop forcing yourself, Ran.

- I'm not forcing anything. - Stop lying to yourself.

I know you married me because of the baby.

Now that the baby's gone,

there's nothing holding you here anymore.

Why are you saying this?

You're the one who just said we'd have another baby someday.

If nothing's keeping you here now, then you won't be happy with me anymore.

How would you know?

Or maybe…

maybe it was me,

who stayed because of the baby.

So…

do you really want to end this?

We broke up before we even knew I was pregnant, Ran.

You know,

I joined the cycling club

because it's something I can do alone.

I know.

But biking alone is lonely.

It's more fun together.

Better Together, right?

Now that you're single,

why don't you and Dao just start dating?

So now that I'm alone,

you want me to go ask Dao out right away?

How would she feel?

Besides,

I want her to stay focused on her work there.

It's her dream.

And you're not lonely?

I don't have time to be lonely.

Both of us are swamped with work.

I can't focus on anything else.

And now there's this damn virus outbreak too.

Come to think of it, for you and Dao, timing has never been on your side.

You'll see. Keep waiting like this,

and someone else is gonna scoop her up.

You're the one who told me the other day,

if I still love Ning, why don't I do something about it.

And look how that turned out.

Oh?

It still didn't work.

Anyway, this whole COVID thing is kinda scary.

What if Dao can't come back to Thailand? Then what?

Yeah…

Zen?

It's you!

I haven't seen you in ages.

Well…

I didn't drive here.

Can you take me home tonight?

Please? It's very close.

Don't tell me you forgot where I live.

Well… I'm not free tonight.

Too bad. What a waste of being single.

Wanna ask my friend? He's single too.

You're really handsome.

How about

taking me home tonight?

I'm single…

but also not free.

What's with guys around here?

All single, none available.

Zen.

If you're gonna be like this,

just stop being single already.

The PCR result still hasn't come out?

How do you know if you need to quarantine?

It's only been two days since I tested, Ran.

They said it takes three to five days.

So, any symptoms?

Sore throat? Fever?

Can you still taste food?

I was fine

until you kept asking every day. Now my throat is itchy.

Dao.

It's not a joke.

If you're positive, you'll be stuck in quarantine there.

You won't know when you'll be able to come home.

Hold on, Ran. Ohm's here.

Ohm.

I brought you a few things.

electrolyte drinks, masks,

cold medicine, flu meds…

There are over 100 new cases in Shanghai.

Keep these just in case.

Thank you. That's really kind.

And this is herbal stewed beef.

I heard your dad used to make this for you,

so I tried making some myself.

You made this yourself?

Yes. Give it a try.

Okay.

Thank you.

I'll get going now. Call me if you need anything.

- Thanks so much, Ohm. - No problem.

Was that him?

That Ohm, the Thai interpreter?

He brought me meds

and stewed beef like my dad used to make.

He's too good. Do you like him?

Hold on.

Who are you? This is my room!

Get out.

- You get out. - Dao?

- Dao! - Get out. That's my room.

- What's wrong? - Get out.

- Dao! - Ran?

Why don't you understand

- This is my room. - Don't touch.

Can you hear me, Dao?

Ran, doesn't Dao live alone? Then who's that guy?

Do you hear me, Dao?

Dao!

My room.

Do you have any of Dao's friend's numbers?

- They might be able to help her. - No!

Get out.

- Get out. - You get out.

- Get out. - You get out.

Who are you?

Sorry, mister.

Get your friend and get out of here.

Or else,

I will call the police.

Let's go.

I won't.

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

- I'm okay. - Dao!

- Are you alright? - Ran.

Some drunk guy barged in earlier, but I'm okay now.

Did he hurt you? Do you need to go to the hospital?

No, I'm fine.

Ohm helped me.

Don't worry. I'll take care of her.

Let's talk later, Mom.

Talk later, Ran.

Who was that?

A coworker of Dao's.

PAO WINWASH

NEW ARRIVAL

So, what's going on between Dao and Ohm?

Why do you want to know?

Because I do. I want to know how she feels about him.

I asked her if she liked him, but she didn't get to answer.

That's bold.

And what would you do if she said she did?

Don't give me that sad puppy face.

As far as I know,

Ohm was her first Thai friend over there.

They were just friends at first,

but the past couple of months, he's been making a move,

calling often, buying her things,

taking care of her when she's sick.

Now he made the stewed beef her dad used to make.

That's the scary part.

She said he reminds her of her dad.

Warm, mature,

calm…

Perfect, like her dad?

And he's in the right place at the right time.

And no debt.

Only five million left.

So…

Does Dao like him?

She didn't say no,

but she didn't say yes either.

And he hasn't straight up said he likes her.

So,

if he does say it, she might agree to date him?

Could be.

Ning, Ran.

Zen.

I brought it for you.

THERE'S COFFEE IN FRONT OF YOU, BUT CAN I BE THE ONE BESIDE YOU?

I'm quitting coffee.

Well, you're quitting coffee, but I can't quit loving you.

Ugh, you're so annoying.

Then stop being annoyed and just get back with me.

Yeah. He's been trying for a year now.

He's been waiting for you at the office, picking you up after concerts.

Whenever you post something, he buys it for you.

All this stuff…

- He'll even pay for it. - No need.

I can buy it myself.

Oh?

Now stop bothering me.

No matter what you do, it's not gonna work.

Oh.

- I've got it. - Leave.

- Let me help. - Get out!

- Ran, get him out! - Let me help.

I'll send a Mr. Stone Face sticker to help instead.

Ran!

PAO WINWASH

- Thank you. - I'm heading out.

Pon brought you stuff from England?

What's with that face?

I don't really like him like that.

Then why accept his gifts?

He's been nice to me. I didn't want to be rude.

He just asked me to be his girlfriend.

What did you say?

I said yes.

Dao! You don't like him, so why date him?

I just didn't know how to say no.

Maybe if I date him, I'll end up liking him.

- I guess. - Dao.

Most people fall in love before they date,

not the other way around.

What if the next guy who treats you well comes along?

You gonna date all of them too?

Ran, have you talked to Dao again yet?

And did that guy take her to the doctor?

It's all taken care of, Mom.

But who was that guy?

He seemed close to Dao.

- Is he her new boyfriend? - No, he's not.

Yesterday, I felt terrible, Mom.

For not being with her.

I heard Dao crying,

and I couldn't do anything.

Ran, do you know something?

When I saw you talking to Dao on Zoom,

you looked so happy.

If you want to take care of her,

then go tell her.

The next time she comes back,

why don't you tell her?

I don't even know when she'll be back yet, Mom.

Her PCR came back negative,

but there are tons of Thai people in Shanghai waiting to return.

Ran.

Still, I think you should find a way to tell her.

You know,

you've spent so long

doing things for others.

You've worked hard to pay off your dad's debts.

But now, everything's okay, right?

It's time, Ran.

It's time you do something for yourself.

Alright?

Yes.

Yes, Mom.

Excuse me.

What? What is it?

Dao's back in two days!

- The day after tomorrow? - Yes.

- Dao's finally coming home? - Yes!

You'll finally get to tell her.

The day after tomorrow?

Ran.

And the day after tomorrow is Valentine's Day.

Maybe it's a sign!

You need to tell her.

Okay.

I just landed.

Duen and Jew are picking you up, right?

I'll see you at home.

So, what do you want to say?

Well,

we'll talk later. I've got work.

Alright.

Ran, where are you off to?

Dao's coming home today.

Right. On Valentine's Day too?

It's such a special day,

you could have skipped work.

I'm just here to wrap a few things up. I'll head out soon.

Ran.

Good luck.

Hello.

I placed a flower order under Paran.

- Yes, just a moment. - Thank you.

Here you go.

- Thank you. - Would you like to write a card?

No.

I'll say it myself.

- Mom! I missed you so much! - Dao!

How are you? Are you tired?

- Not at all. - Did they check you for everything?

They did before I boarded.

Alright.

Grandma! I missed you so much!

How are you doing?

I'm hungry.

Hungry? Then go eat!

All that food on the table is for you.

It looks amazing.

What are you doing?

Go wash your hands first.

Hot food, clean hands, spoons, always.

Oh, come on. We're at home.

- Grandma! - Hey.

I went to the market at the crack of dawn.

That's right. You went early this morning. And you didn't wear a mask.

And you chatted with everyone in the whole market.

- What if you caught COVID, Grandma? - Yes.

I'm not scared of any COVID.

At my age? I've lived through smallpox, bird flu, swine flu. Been through it all.

Kids being stubborn is cute.

But old folks being stubborn? That's something else.

- True, Mom. - What did you say?

I just choked on my own saliva.

I'm gonna go wash my hands now.

Be serious, Mom.

Here.

This is the good part.

You really like making oily food.

Well, I like it.

Ugh.

You're such a pain.

Don't eat too much, Mom.

You said Ran was coming? Where is he?

He should be on his way.

Hello.

Ohm?

- What are you doing here? - I don't know.

- Who? - I don't know.

Please come in.

Everyone, this is Ohm.

He helped take care of me in China.

- Hello. - Oh, hello.

I'm an interpreter. We work at the same company.

This is my grandma.

This is my mom.

And that's Jew and Duen.

You didn't tell me you were coming back. We could have flown back together.

I just found out I could return too,

so I wanted to surprise you.

Happy Valentine's Day.

GRANDMA SAMAI RESTAURANT

Thank you.

- Ohm, right? - Yes.

Come, join us for the meal.

- Have a seat. - Sit here.

- There's a lot of food. - I'll get some rice.

Alright.

- Excuse me. - Let me take that.

Alright.

- Here's your water. - Thank you.

Drink some water first.

That's enough, Dear.

- Thank you. - Alright.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - No problem.

Hello, everyone.

- Ran! - Hello.

- Ran! - Hello.

Hello.

Welcome home, Dao.

Let's go eat.

- Come. - Come on.

Where should he sit? Grab that chair for him.

- Sit right there. - Sure.

- Right there. - Welcome.

When Dao told us Ran was coming, I prepared a lot of food.

And this…

- Here. - Oh.

Bael fruit juice.

- Thanks so much, Grandma. - No, no, Just sit.

- Grandma. - Just sit, Ran.

- Just sit down. - She wants to take care of you.

Alright.

Here.

- She wouldn't let anyone drink it first. - As always.

Yes.

- Thank you. - No problem.

Ran.

This is Ohm. I knew him in China.

Seen him on video before, right?

This is Ran, my friend since grade 7.

Hello.

Hello.

How are you, Ran?

Lately, a lot of our customers order through Wiman.

It's been picking up.

But the office has been talking about what might happen

if COVID hits.

I saw China started lockdowns, people couldn't leave their homes.

If that happens here, it will be tough.

But it might actually be good for his app.

If people can't go out, they'll just order food.

In China, delivery drivers were super busy.

So,

should I wish for a pandemic or not?

- Grandma! - Grandma!

What about your Mr. Stone Face art toy? How's that going?

Will I get to see it this year?

They were planning to launch in April.

But now, with COVID, I'm not sure if things will change.

They're also busy prepping for an IPO.

But I brought back a sample.

- Really? - It's super cute.

Everyone who sees it loves it.

I'll show you later.

Alright.

Want to see it?

Of course.

Dao, I was so worried about you.

Going off alone like that. You didn't even know the language.

Mom, my first week there,

I couldn't even order food properly.

Good thing I met Ohm.

Your first plate was…

Frog soup? The one I ate for you.

I first met Ohm when I was ordering food at a restaurant.

I pointed randomly at the menu and got frog soup.

I was staring at it, looking completely disgusted.

Then Ohm walked up and said hi.

She didn't know I was Thai.

I had to say hi. That's how we started talking.

First thing I learned from Ohm

was how to order food.

A small plate of pork.

Yi pan?

- What's that? - It means pork fried rice.

Her lifesaver dish.

A small plate of pork.

I don't think I could live in China.

- I think you could, Mom. - Yes, I can eat frog soup.

Right.

Valentine's is only once a year. Just spend some money.

I just can't.

Roses are insanely expensive now.

Not like you can complain.

You made a fortune reselling overpriced masks.

Fine!

I'll sell them at cost for you.

But what flowers should I buy for Mew?

Any flower is fine. If you don't buy any,

Mew might be sending funeral flowers your way.

Whoa.

That's harsh. Are you moody or something?

Anyway, are you coming to visit me in Pattaya?

Just come.

Mew's hotel has had a bunch of cancellations.

I don't get the fear.

I'm just sitting here lonely in an empty hotel.

I'm not going. Bye.

Oh?

What's she pissed off about now?

When are you going to leave?

I just want to eat alone. Why are you following me?

It's Valentine's Day. Who eats alone today?

See? Everyone's eating in pairs.

Stop being nice already.

Just go back to being yourself.

This is me. I'm better now.

Acting.

You really won't give me another chance?

Do you know

how hard it was for me to get through it all?

I don't want to risk it all again.

- If you don't, how will you ever know? - I don't want to know.

Excuse me. Is everything alright here?

Well…

My girlfriend's mad at me, that's all.

In that case, could you please lower your voices a little?

- Yes, sorry. - Thank you.

Your girlfriend, my ass.

I'm not getting back with you.

Because that means all the time I spent trying to get over you was pointless.

If you have to try,

it means you don't actually want to let go.

I promise,

I won't make you cry again.

Please give me another chance.

No.

Once in a lifetime is enough for me to be a fool.

Do whatever you want.

Just count me out.

Fine.

Are you trying to die? You're allergic to shrimp.

Ridiculous.

Ah!

Sir! Are you okay?

Stay calm.

- Someone call a doctor! - Hey.

What happened?

Stay calm.

- Are you okay? - Step back, please.

Take it.

He's allergic to shrimp.

You still carry the allergy meds?

I'm just used to it.

You almost died and you're laughing?

GRANDMA SAMAI RESTAURANT

So you're back now. What about your job?

I asked to work remotely.

Even over there, I was working from my room anyway.

So, you had something to tell me?

You've held it since I was in China.

I like you.

What did you say?

- Dao. - I said--

Sorry.

I thought your friend already left.

Can I talk to Dao for a minute?

No.

Ran.

Just a sec.

You go talk to Grandma first.

I'll talk to Ohm and join you later.

It's okay then.

We can talk another time.

I have to go now anyway.

Oh, really?

Alright. Let's talk tomorrow then.

See you.

I'm sorry

for showing up unannounced.

It's totally fine.

It's nice that everyone here got to meet someone who looked after me in China.

In that case, would it be alright

if I kept taking care of you,

but not just as a senior colleague anymore?

What do you mean?

Well,

we've known each other for almost a year now.

At first, I took care of you because it was my responsibility.

But over time,

even when it wasn't, I still wanted to.

I didn't dare to flirt.

All I could do was whatever I could.

But hey, it's Valentine's Day.

If I don't have the courage today, when will I?

Will you be my girlfriend?

You don't have to answer right away.

I know you're probably in shock.

I'll come back tomorrow to hear your answer.

You're just sitting there staring at those flowers.

You didn't tell us anything.

Yeah, what's going on between you and Ohm?

They're just colleagues.

Come on, Mom.

He flew back just to see her and brought flowers for Valentine's Day.

What kind of friend does that?

I really don't think of Ohm that way.

See?

Why not, Dao?

He seems like a good guy.

He is.

Ohm's a good person.

He took such good care of me.

If it wasn't for him back in China,

I would have been in real trouble.

He's perfect, just like Dad.

I used to think…

if someone perfect like Dad ever confessed to me,

I'd be thrilled.

But why didn't my heart

skip a beat?

Dao,

are you still looking for someone as perfect as your father?

Dao,

there's no such thing as perfect people.

There is, Grandma. Dad was.

Grandma.

I think it's time we told her.

Told me what?

Dao,

listen carefully, Sweetie.

We never wanted you

to know this.

But I think it's time.

What is it?

The day your father had the accident,

he and your mother had a fight.

That day, you and Duen were at school.

At home, it was just your dad, your mom, and me.

What did they fight about?

Your father had another woman.

Your mom had known for a while.

She asked him to leave the other woman.

But he wouldn't.

Eventually, your mom asked for a divorce.

But he refused.

That day,

the other woman called and said she was sick.

Your father rushed out

and the accident happened.

I'm sorry, Dao.

Sorry we never told you.

We all knew how much you loved Dad.

No one wanted to destroy those beautiful memories

you had of him.

Dao…

Mom.

Mom.

I'm so sorry.

I never knew.

All the times I talked about Dad…

I didn't know what he'd done to you.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay, Honey.

It's okay.

Your dad had his good sides.

Keep those good memories with you.

But just remember.

You don't need to find someone perfect.

Because there's no such thing.

Find someone you feel at ease with.

Someone who will stay by your side

no matter what.

Duen.

Whose is this? I found it outside.

Only Ohm and Ran were here earlier.

Right.

Maybe…

Does your heart skip a beat this time?

Ran!

Ran! Ran!

Ran!

Ran!

- Oh, Dao? - Mom.

Is Ran here?

- Come in, Dear. - It's okay.

I tried calling him, but I couldn't get through.

I need to talk to him about something important.

He told me not to tell anyone where he was.

But maybe he'd want me to tell you.

So where is he?

Poor you, Ran.

You finally confessed to Dao and still had obstacles.

I swear,

your guardian angel

just doesn't want you to be her boyfriend.

Then why didn't you just talk to Dao and clear things up?

I didn't know how she felt about Ohm.

I didn't want to make things harder for her.

Are you playing the good guy now?

Well, it's good you're here now.

I've called everyone and no one's free.

Hey, make yourself at home.

I'll get you something to eat.

Go swim for now.

- Let's go, babe. - Sure.

Let's go to the kitchen.

- To do what? - Shh! He'll hear.

Whoa.

RAYONG PATTAYA SATTAHIP

Hello? Is anyone here?

Anyone?

Ran.

Ran.

Dao!

Hey?

What are you doing here? Why are you here?

I love you.

Did you hear me? I love you. I love you, I love you!

You're not hypnotizing yourself, are you?

I'm hypnotizing you.

Don't bother.

Because I love you too.

You're eating a lot.

I need to nourish myself.

So, what do you think? Does it look like you?

I told you, I look better.

Or am I wrong?

You're right.

- Is it delicious? - Together is really better.

- Here. - Aw, it's so cute!

Look.

Don't tell Ning about this yet.

If she finds out, the whole world will know.

YOUR REWARD IS UPSTAIRS

Are you saying I'm obsessed with myself?

Yes.

But aren't you obsessed with me too?
