Original subtitles

I just want to be Ms. Wanviva

who stays by Ms. Sadabpin’s side forever.

If I have you, I don’t need anything else.

What if one day I get a boyfriend and I have to get married,

what will you do then?

To prevent that from happening,

I need to find a boyfriend before you do.

You're jealous of me.

Are you crazy? Friends don't get jealous.

I'm going to become a doctor.

Let's hope that's true.

If I do it, what will you give me?

Do it first, then you can ask.

Have you reached your friend's house yet?

I just stopped to buy some supplies for the project

Where are you right now?

Wan.

This isn't just a coincidence, is it?

So, how do I even explain this?

I was taking a break from my study group.

And I decided to grab a bite here.

Then I saw you and your friends.

So, I kinda followed you.

And why would you do that?

Because I wanted to chat with you.

Hey, Wan. We're heading to the store to stock up on some snacks.

Can you cover the bill for us?

Then catch up with us, okay?

Let's go.

Hold up.

Hand it over. Let me help you carry that.

It's fine, I can manage on my own.

Just let him help.

He's trying to be a gentleman.

Don't hurt his feelings.

Pleng.

How did you even find me here?

Wait, were you following me?

Is it you? The one who keeps calling Wan?

Do you like Wan or something?

Pleng…

Yeah, I think you do.

I mean, if you just wanted to be friends, you wouldn't act like this.

Theoretically speaking, a guy and a girl

can't just be friends.

What are you talking about? That's nonsense.

Are you so into guys now that you think I'm talking nonsense?

Hello?

Wan, I'm done. Are you finished yet?

Okay, I'm heading out then.

I've got to go now.

Make sure you get home safe.

I'm worried about you.

Yeah, I do like Wan.

So, you finally admitted it.

You're not happy about it, are you?

And why would I be unhappy?

I don't know.

The way you're acting says it all.

If something's bothering you, just tell me straight.

I'm ready to fix it.

Why do you even care about how I feel?

Because you're Wan's boss.

If you don't like me, maybe Wan won't either.

Did Wan say I was her boss?

Did she also mention that I'm her best friend?

But doesn't that make your opinion matter even more?

It doesn't though.

This is Wan's decision alone.

Even if I don't like you, if Wan does, I can't stop her.

So, you really don't like me, do you?

No, it's not that.

But we don't really know each other that well yet.

So, I've got a bit of a wall up.

In that case…

Could you help me win Wan over?

That way, we can get to know each other better.

Could you help me win Wan over?

That way, we can get to know each other better.

Sure. I can help with that.

But you have to answer a question for me first.

Do you have a dream?

A dream?

Well, something about your future, maybe?

How do you see yourself?

That question…

You'd probably have to ask my parents.

I don't really have much of a say in that.

Keep dreaming if you think Wan would like someone like you.

Who doesn't even have a dream of their own?

Pleng? What are you up to?

Can I come in?

Just a sec.

What's up?

Are you still mad at me?

About what?

About me saying you were being ridiculous.

Are you feeling guilty now?

Yeah, I am. A lot, actually.

Well, if you're feeling guilty,

then I'm not mad anymore.

Is that all you wanted to ask?

If so, I'm going to finish my shower.

Wait. Can I join you?

My back's killing me from working on my report.

Sure, come on in. I'll give you a massage.

Seriously?

What are you doing?

You're taking forever.

Stop dragging your feet, it's annoying.

Are you still wearing my bra?

It’s really old, you know.

You're so weird.

I offered to buy you a new one, but you refused.

Do you really like it that much?

An heirloom from me.

Yeah, I like it a lot.

You've been pretty diligent lately.

Of course.

I need to be ready for med school exams.

You still haven't given up on becoming a doctor?

Why would I give up? It's my dream.

That's ridiculous.

It's something I love, and you're just doing it to impress me.

You and Ek are so alike.

Always tying your dreams to someone else.

When did you even talk to Ek?

Well…

When we were apart for a bit.

And what did you two talk about?

Nothing much.

Ek just… tried to get me to like him.

He thinks I have influence over your decisions.

Well, you kinda do.

You're the only person in the world

that I believe everything they say

no matter what.

So, how are you feeling? Any better?

After a warm bath and a good massage?

Much better.

So, how should I repay the person who gave me a massage?

A smile will do.

Whenever you smile,

it puts me in a good mood.

There, I smiled.

Now keep up the good work with the massage.

That's enough.

I'm getting cold.

But the water's warm.

Wan. Oh, careful!

THE FEELING WHEN YOUR HEART RACES

That feeling when your heart races near a close friend.

I feel my heart race whenever I'm close to this friend.

Me too, especially when we make eye contact.

Am I secretly in love?

It's probably just a crush.

If it were love, it'd be more intense.

IT'S PROBABLY JUST A CRUSH

Like feeling jealous when you see them with someone else.

That kind of jealousy.

Do you realize how contradictory you are?

Back at the gallery,

you said that if I were to date someone,

Ek seemed like a good choice.

But now that Ek and I are actually getting to know each other,

you're jealous.

Wan, what are you saying?

You're jealous of me.

You're jealous of me, Pleng.

Pleng?

Why are you in here?

I came to see if you were awake,

to see if you wanted to join me for breakfast.

Well, I'm awake.

- What were you looking at? - Don't pry.

Can you just not?

And from now on,

don't come into my room unless I say you can.

Got it? Now go.

Why? Did I do something wrong?

Can you not ask?

I told you to leave, so just go.

Your eyes look puffy.

Did you not sleep?

Or are you not feeling well?

You don't have a fever.

You're actually really cold.

I told you to leave, Wan.

Don't make me say it again.

Just go.

Fine, I'll go. No need to be so harsh.

Finish up whatever you're doing and come down.

I'm waiting to have breakfast with you.

Don't wait.

If you're hungry, just eat.

And for the rest of the day,

don't bother me.

I need to focus.

I'm working on a new song.

Now go.

Hurry up.

If this keeps up,

one day you're going to find out.

What should I do? What should I do?

No, no, no, no, no…

Should I call?

What's the number again?

Zero… Zero-six…

Zero-six-three… Zero…

Zero-six-three…

Hello?

Hi, Ek. It's Pleng.

Are you free tomorrow? Can we meet up?

Sure, where?

Anywhere, you pick.

In that case, how about my usual spot?

Okay.

Where are you? You should come home now.

It's going to rain, and you might catch a cold.

Have you heard from Wan at all?

I bought this for you.

A girl with a great figure like you wouldn't eat anything too fattening.

You know me well, huh?

Is this place your usual spot?

It's hot

and lonely. I don't see what's so great about it.

Well, it's peaceful here.

If you want peace, why not stay at home?

If my home were peaceful,

that'd be great.

So, is there a reason you wanted to meet here, Pleng?

I just wanted to know…

Have you ever had a girlfriend before?

Why do you ask? Do you like me or something?

Are you out of your mind?

Well, I've dated around a bit.

But if it doesn't feel right, we just part ways.

And what do you mean by "doesn't feel right"?

Well, I'm a very private person.

Sometimes, I just want to be alone for no reason.

Most women who talk to me don't really get that.

In that case, you probably can't date Wan.

Wan's like most women.

She'd be really attached to her partner.

It's not the kind of relationship where you can just do your own thing.

But if it's with Wan,

I'd be willing.

I've found my answer.

When you asked me what my dream was…

I want to be with Wan.

If possible, I'd like to build a family with her.

It might sound silly for someone my age to say that.

But that's really how I feel.

But why does it have to be Wan?

I don't know.

Wan has something that I've been looking for.

Something?

What is it?

Warmth, I guess.

Warmth?

Are you lacking warmth?

Do your parents not love you?

Well, um…

You said your future depends on your parents, right?

What if your parents don't like Wan?

What would you do then?

Wan would be the one thing that I wouldn't let them interfere with.

Are you sure you can do that?

I'm sure.

I promise.

If I get to be with Wan, I won't let anyone hurt her.

Not even myself. I won't make her sad.

Fine. I'll help you get together with Wan.

You said it.

Don't take it back.

Are you lacking warmth?

Do your parents not love you?

Ek…

Didn't I tell you I'd only buy it if you came first in your exams?

Stop crying, Ek.

You're a boy. Don't be so weak.

Can I have a guitar, Mom?

Can you buy me one, please?

Didn't you see the message I sent you?

I saw it.

Then why didn't you reply?

I was just too lazy.

Where did you go?

To the mall.

With whom?

With the guy who's trying to win you over.

Ek?

Why did you meet Ek again?

So we could get to know each other better.

To see if he's right for you.

I think Ek's pretty great.

If you like him,

I'm rooting for you two.

I think it's about time.

It's about time you had a boyfriend.

What did you say?

Nothing. Just that.

Now go. I need to do my homework.

Wait a second.

Let's talk first.

You were jealous when you found out Ek was into me.

But now you're playing matchmaker.

What's going on in your head?

I'm just thinking it's time we grew up.

We need to stop being so attached.

And start living our own lives.

Don't you remember what my mom said?

If I keep clinging to you like this,

we'll never be able to move on.

I don't want to go anywhere.

But one day, we'll have to.

One day, we'll have to go our separate ways.

So, we might as well get used to it now.

Hurry up and get a boyfriend.

Then I can get one too.

Is this really what you want?

Are you sure?

Can you stop asking?

It's annoying.

- You're walking so slowly. - We're going to be late.

I'm starving. Are you guys hungry?

Hungry? Yeah, I'm really hungry.

- What should we eat? - Noodles?

Sure, let's go.

- Same as usual? - Fried rice?

Fried rice, yeah?

Hey. I don't know the exact details.

I just happened to overhear my dad talking to my uncle.

Apparently, her dad got involved in some kind of corruption.

And now he's about to get in trouble.

What's Pleng going to do if that's the case?

I feel sorry for her, honestly.

Why would you feel sorry for her?

Everyone in our class hates her.

WAN

Can I come in?

Come in, dear.

How are you?

It's late, why aren't you in bed?

I was waiting for you to come home, Dad.

Is something wrong?

Dad, there's a problem at your company, isn't there?

Who told you that?

I heard some friends at school talking about it.

And where did your friends hear that from?

Answer me first, Dad. Is it true or not?

Yes, there is a problem.

But it's not that big of a deal.

And I've already found a way to handle it.

Really?

But what my friends were saying…

Whatever they said doesn't matter.

It's nothing beyond what your dad can handle.

Didn't you tell me yourself?

That I'm amazing?

Yes.

My dad is the most amazing person in the world.

In that case, you have to trust your dad, okay?

And don't worry about me.

Everything will be fine soon.

Now go to bed.

I love you, Dad.

I love you too, Pleng.

I warned you, not to invest in this company.

But you were stubborn.

But I thought…

That's enough, Mr. Wut.

What I need from you is to clear everything with the auditors.

Including your personal accounts.

What does this have to do with my personal accounts?

Because I suspect

that you might be involved in this corruption.

Because you were the one who initiated this whole thing from the start.

How could you think that about me?

We've worked together for so many years.

You know the kind of person I am.

I would never do something so immoral.

But when it comes to personal gain, it can affect anyone.

If you're truly innocent, you have nothing to fear.

I'm going to bed now, Dad.

- You should get some sleep too. - Okay.

- Good night. - Good night.

EXAMINATION ID CARD: EKKARIN

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED INTO THE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION FACULTY.

How did your exam results turn out, son?

Just as you expected, Mom.

Really?

- Are you serious, Ek? - Yes.

I'm so relieved.

Do you know, Ek?

The other day, Dad told me that if you didn't pass the exam,

he wouldn't let you take over the company.

Just because I didn't pass the exam?

It's not just that.

Dad said he's been thinking for a long time

that you're not qualified.

Because since you were a child,

you've never shown any signs of

being a leader or achieving anything significant.

Do you remember, Ek?

That in your entire life, you only came first once in exams?

That's why Dad believed that if you failed this time,

it would be proof that you really can't do it.

That's why I kept reminding you

to focus.

Yes, Mom. Is there anything else, Mom?

If not, I'd like to excuse myself.

Wait, wait, just a second.

Ek, are you going out with your friends?

I transferred some money to you.

I'll call Dad and let him know.

It'll make him feel better.

40,000 BAHT

EK

If you have something to say, just say it now.

I want to go back to sleep.

I want to see Wan.

Can you help me find a way to meet her?

What's the matter?

Why do you want to see Wan so badly?

I have something important to tell her.

What is it?

I can't tell you.

I want to tell Wan first.

Fine.

I'll try to help you find a way.

But I can't promise I'll succeed.

You're all dressed up.

Where are you going, Mom?

I'm going to the supermarket with Aunt Wi.

Going to buy some things to make canned fish fried rice

for your dad for dinner.

You're going to cook?

Why? No need to make that face.

I can cook, at least this one dish.

I've been practicing it since I first started dating your dad.

- Really? - Of course!

That's why your dad always begs me to make this dish.

But I haven't made it in a long time.

I'm not sure if it'll taste the same as before.

So why all of a sudden do you want to make it for Dad?

Well, lately,

I've noticed that your dad seems stressed.

It's probably something to do with work.

So I thought I'd surprise him

to cheer him up a bit.

That's a great idea!

While Dad is enjoying the canned fish fried rice you made,

I'll play the piano for him.

That way, he'll get double the encouragement!

That's a great plan.

Alright, I'll head out now.

Can I come with you, Mom?

Of course.

What about you, Wan, wanna join us?

Wan probably can't come, Mom.

Because…

I was going to ask Wan to buy me some guitar strings.

The old ones broke.

Could you go buy them for me?

The same store. The same type.

You remember, right?

Let's go then.

- I'll just grab my bag real quick, okay? - Alright.

Go meet Wan at the guitar store on the second floor of the same mall.

Are you fighting with Wan, dear?

No, I'm not.

Why do you ask that, Mom?

It's just that I haven't seen you two talk in days.

And just now, both of you looked tense.

Anyone could see it.

It's not like that at all.

Wan and I are just taking some space.

And why do you need space?

We're just preparing.

Just in case one day,

when Wan goes to university, we'll have to go our separate ways anyway.

To get used to it.

You two…

Three days you're fine, four days you're fighting,

and two days later you're fine again.

You're giving me a headache.

Speaking of the future,

did Wan ever tell you what she wants to study, Wi?

No, I don't know at all.

We've never talked about it.

And what would you like Wan to study?

Honestly, I'd like her to study business.

I think it's broad, and it opens up many opportunities.

But I know someone like Wan probably can't handle it.

So I don't have high expectations.

I just think…

let her study whatever she can manage.

Because no matter what, after graduating,

she'll probably just be an ordinary office worker.

She won't be anyone important or in a big position.

Do you really think I'd let Wan have a future like that?

Even though Wan isn't my own child, I've raised her like my own.

I've already thought about it.

After she graduates,

I'll recommend her for a job at Mr. Wut's company.

I believe

that Wan will succeed in her own way.

Right, Pleng?

Don't make that face.

And you too.

No matter how much you love music, you can't abandon your dad's company.

You need to help him out sometimes.

No way, Mom.

I'm scared of facing problems.

I don't want to end up stressed like that.

I don't like it.

Is there anyone in this world who doesn't face problems?

If your dad is going through something right now, it's not the first time.

You know, before you were born,

he went through major crises.

But he got through them.

Back then, I wasn't even by his side.

And… Where were you, Mom?

I was admitted to the hospital for almost a week.

Aunt Wi was the one who took care of your dad instead of me.

Okay. Thank you so much.

Mom, when we get to the supermarket,

I'll go take care of some of my own errands.

If you and Aunt Wi finish shopping, you can go home first.

You don't need to wait for me.

Okay.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

- I'd like a set of guitar strings, please. - Oh, sure.

Guitar strings, right?

Are you the one who came with Ms. Pleng before?

- Yes, that's me. - Oh, do you play the guitar too?

No, I don't. I'm just buying them for Ms. Pleng.

The strings broke again?

I just replaced them recently.

Let me grab another set for you.

Wan.

Don't tell me this is just another coincidence.

Pleng told you, didn't she?

I'm the one who asked her.

Don't be mad at Pleng.

Why did you do this?

Because I have something to tell you.

Then why didn't you just call?

I did call. I've been calling every day.

But it's you who never picks up.

Pleng, come here right now.

Wan, that hurts. Let go.

Are you using force on me now?

You're so controlling.

Everything I do is for you.

You're not doing it for me.

You're doing it for yourself.

What do you mean by that?

You just want to distance yourself from me.

That's why you're pushing me towards Ek.

Without even asking me

whether I want that or not.

If I had asked you,

you would've said no.

Exactly.

You knew it all along, but you still did it.

Honestly,

if you just want to distance yourself from me,

then step back.

Don't make things more complicated.

And it's none of your business.

Wan, are you saying I'm meddling?

Wan.

Don't look at me like that.

Whatever I do is my business.

Can you just stop bothering me already?

Or else, I'll use the same word you once did.

What word?

The word "annoyed."

Wan… Someone like you

won't stay annoyed with me for long.

You’ll come running back to me soon enough.

Pleng…

I hate you.

Pleng, I hate you.

Wan, can you go get Pleng for me?

She said she'd come down to help after her shower.

It's been over an hour now.

Okay.

Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng, open the door for me, please!

Pleng!

Pleng!

Pleng!

What's going on, Wan?

I don't know.

No matter how much I call, she won't open the door.

Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng.

- Pleng. - Pleng, open the door!

Ma'am! Ma'am!

- Ma'am! Ma'am! - The key!

Ma'am! Ma'am!

Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng. Pleng! Pleng!

Pleng! Pleng.

Pleng! Pleng!

Hey, you guys.

You go eat.

I'm not really that hungry yet.

Okay. Come on, let's go.

Her dad got involved in some kind of corruption.

And now he's about to get in trouble.

What's Pleng going to do if that's the case?

I feel sorry for her, honestly.

Why would you feel sorry for her?

Everyone in our class hates her.

Maybe if she gets knocked down a peg, she'll stop being so smug.

Sin!

If you keep being this stubborn,

I'm going to shout so everyone knows that I love you.

Are you daring me?

I love you!

You bought this for me?

So you can stop wearing my old bras.

You bought it for me.

Now try putting it on me too.

I can't sleep.

Want to fall asleep?

I'll help you with that.

Life is so depressing.

Is this what they call a fallen princess?
