I’d love to have
a song that you wrote for me.

I’ve never written a song
about a friend before.

Just write it based on how you feel.

If it's love, then say it's love.

You’re trying to sneak a kiss again.

I can't sleep.

Want to fall asleep?

I’ll help you with that.

Dad! Dad!

Mom!

The has patient passed away
from sudden cardiac arrest.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Use this money wisely.

All of your father's assets now,

including the house you live in,
are about to be seized.

It’s probably not as comfortable here
as it is at home, Ms. Pleng.

Whatever you can do on your own,
you'll have to do it yourself.

I can’t help you that much,

other than letting you stay here

until you can get back
on your feet and move out.

Are you done yet, Ms. Pleng?

Be careful.

Oh no, Pleng.

Come here.

Be careful.

Does it hurt?

You don't need to wash it.

Give it to me, I'll wash it for you.

No, it's okay, I can wash it myself.

No way.

Are you playing guitar, Pleng?

Why are you so startled?

I thought you'd stopped playing.

Since you've been here,
you haven't touched it at all.

I could never give it up.

Because it's the only thing I love.

And also,
it's probably the one thing I'm best at.

So why did you suddenly
pick it up to play today?

I've been thinking, after school,
I'm going to busk for money.

Busk?

I'll be able to earn some extra cash.

I'm so proud that you're
thinking like that.

And the song you'll be playing,

is it the one you wrote for me?

No, it's not.

That song isn't finished yet.

So when will I get to hear it?

Go on and do whatever you need to.

Writing a song requires focus, you know.

Good luck, my talented artist.

I'm off now.

AWARDED TO MS. WANVIVA PAKDEEWONG
FOR OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE

FIRST PLACE
IN THE MATHEMATICS EXCELLENCE COMPETITION

You took the competition exam, didn't you?

How did it go?

It… it was nothing special.

Don't tell me…
that you failed in the first round.

Not everyone is as talented as you.

WANVIVA PAKDEEWONG

GPA 3.89

EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE

- Wow, you're really good.
- Good at what?

It's about the same as last term.

Honestly, I thought
I'd do even better this time.

And you, how did you do?

Not great again?

Can I take a look?

No, It's embarrassing.

I knew it,
you wouldn't let me see again as usual.

GPA 3.87

Didn't you say
her dad left her some money?

Yeah, but it's probably not much.

Paying tuition fees
will probably use it all up.

There probably won't be enough left
to pay us for her living expenses.

Then we'll have to find a way
to get her out.

Because if she stays,
she'll just add more burden on me.

Don't forget, I'm the only one
supporting our whole house right now.

If you're not brave enough,
you don't have to kick her out directly.

Just make her feel like she's a burden.

That'll be enough to make her leave.

- I already said it.
- Say it again.

Say it more forcefully.

Say it yourself.

You're the one
who doesn't want her here, right?

Oh, come on. You think I don't know?

You're the same.

You don't like her either.

Like her or not,
I've taken care of her before.

If she can't stay here,
she has nowhere else to go.

Let's just do it for her parents' sake.

Let her stay here a little longer.

Once she gets back on her feet,
she'll leave.

This is really bad.

If it gets to that point,
I might as well die first.

Four people?
How am I supposed to support us all?

Pleng…

Don't say anything.

I don't want to hear it.

But I want to explain.

What you heard my parents talking about…

They might've…

They might've been stressed about money.

That's why they said something
without thinking.

Is that so?

How long are you going to keep lying, Wan?

You, your dad, and your mom.

SAINT AUGUSTIN FRANCIS SCHOOL

Huh, Wan?

Why are you crying?

You're even better than me.

No, actually, I should say,

you're really good at studying.

But I…

I'm the stupid one

for believing your lies.

Why did you do it, Wan? For what?

I just didn't want to compete with you.

What does that even mean?

We grew up together.

If we're both equally good,

we'll be seen as rivals.

And if that happens,

we won't be happy together

when we're with each other.

Do you know

that I'm happy every time

when… I see you succeed at something.

Happier than
when I achieve something myself.

So I thought, it would be best

if I acted like

I couldn't do anything.

So you could be the only one who's great.

I'm sorry.

What I did

was because I love you.

People who love each other

don't do this, Wan.

I really can't trust anyone.

Pleng…

Pleng…

You can trust me.

I'm sorry.

I won't do this again.

I won't do it again.

Let me go, Wan.

No. I won't let go.

Not until you forgive me.

Please, Pleng, I'm begging you.

Alright.

I'll forgive you.

You really mean it, Pleng?

But my feelings

for you

will never be the same again.

Why are you so stressed?

Wan said she overheard
what we were talking about.

That's actually a good thing.

Now we don't have to say it ourselves.

Where's Wan?

She's in her room.

Aunt Wi, I'm moving out of here.

- I'm going to stay with Aunt Pen.
- Aunt Pen?

Ms. Kwan's cousin, right?

Yes.

Today, I met with Uncle Pu and Frank.

Aunt Pen contacted me through him.

She wants me to stay with her.

But as far as I remember…

you've only met Ms. Pen once.

Do you really know her well enough
to move in with her?

I don't think
it's necessary to know her that well.

Because even the people
I thought I knew really well

turned out to be strangers to me.

So, no matter who Aunt Pen is,

I'm going to stay with her.

Aunt Wi, don't worry.

If you're certain about this,

I'll respect your decision.

This money, please keep it.

I set this aside
from what my father gave me.

Consider it

a thank you for letting me stay here
during this time.

Thank you so much.

You really are kind-hearted after all.

At first, I thought
you were going to stay here for free.

But it's alright, really.

Even though
you're moving in with your aunt,

you should still keep some money
for yourself.

Please keep it, Aunt Wi.

I truly want you to have it.

I don't want to owe anyone.

And I don't want to owe you either.

This is too much money.

You've only stayed here a few days,
and it doesn't cost much at all.

There's no need to repay us.

In that case,
I'll respect your decision, Aunt Wi.

Wan.

You have to stay strong.

I'll try my best too.

Goodbye, Wan.

Please give it to your parents.

ONE YEAR LATER

13 YEARS LATER

Yes.

Your boyfriend
is causing a scene downstairs again.

Please come down and deal with it.

- Ta.
- Pleng.

What do you want?

I don't want to break up with you.

- I love you, Pleng.
- Ta.

Can you stop saying that?
It makes me want to puke.

Why are you being so cruel to me?

Because you lied to me
about not having a wife.

And you made me your mistress
without me even knowing.

I already apologized.

I explained everything to you…

I told you everything.

That what happened between me and her
was just a mistake.

That's all it was, Pleng.

Stop saying "that's all."

Because your mistake

wasn't something small.

It's about bringing a child
into the world.

And that child is yours.

Go take care of him.

Pleng! Please don't leave, Pleng.

- Let go of me.
- Pleng.

Is anyone around?

Call the police.

- I won't let go.
- Someone's causing a scene!

Hurry up!

Fine, I'll leave for now.

But remember this,

I'm not giving up on you, for sure.

What a mess.

Thank you so much for helping me.

It's nothing.

But I'll be honest with you,
I can't let you stay here any longer.

Your boyfriend
keeps causing disturbances like this.

And he doesn't seem quite right.

I'm worried the other residents
won't be safe.

I understand.

Once…

I can find a new place to stay,

I will…

Hey, hey!

Where did everyone go?

Someone just fainted!

What are you doing, ma'am?

I'm going to the bathroom.

If you're going to the bathroom,
take the IV stand with you.

Doing this is very dangerous, you know?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

Actually, I want to go home.

You can't go home yet. You have the flu.

You'll probably need to stay in
the hospital for two or three more days,

or even longer.

- The flu?
- Yes.

But we're not sure which strain it is yet.

We have to wait for the lab results.

Will the medical expenses be expensive?

We can't say for sure yet.

We need to wait for the results
to see if you'll need injections

or other treatments.

Hey,

can I ask for an advance on my salary?

I'm in the hospital right now.

I don't have any money
to pay for the treatment.

What's wrong?

I have the flu.

So you can't sing then?

Now I have to find someone
to replace you again.

So, about the money?

There's no advance.

You'll have to wait
until the end of the month.

Please step aside, sir.

A 30-year-old man, hit by a car, doctor.

Initial vital signs,
BP 85/60, Heart rate 120.

Oxygen saturation is 94%.

Please give this patient
additional medication.

Dr. Hong, Dr. Hong.

Call Dr. Wan immediately.
There's an emergency case in the ER.

- Which Wan are you talking about?
- Wanviva! Come on, hurry.

Excuse me, does this hospital…

have a doctor named Wanviva?

Which department?

I'm not sure.

- Could you check for me, please?
- Sure.

Yes, we do. Dr. Wanviva Pipattanakul.

May I ask what you're calling about?

Nothing. I was just curious

as to whether it was someone I knew.

But since the last names are different,
I guess not.

Thank you.

Pleng.

Wan.

It's really you, Wan.

It's been a long time, hasn't it?

Must be ten years now.

Not ten years.

Thirteen years.

Thirteen years since you disappeared.

You once wrote a letter
saying you'd take care of yourself.

So, why are you in this state?

Are you blaming me?

Yes. I'm blaming you.

Why didn't you take care of yourself?

How did you let yourself get this sick?

I didn't let it happen.

If I had a choice,
I wouldn't want to be sick either.

Pleng, the reason I'm saying this

is because I care about you.

Can you stop making excuses?

The lab results are in.

You have a new strain of the flu.

You'll need to be admitted
for two or three days for observation.

After that, you can go home.

I have to be admitted?

Can't I just take the medicine
and go home?

I don't like staying in the hospital.

I don't like the atmosphere.

You can't.

You'll have to deal with it
even if you don't like it.

And no running away.

We're adults now.

Stop being so selfish.

Wan…

You've changed.

It's been 13 years.

It'd be strange if I hadn't changed.

I know.

But…

something about you is missing too.

What?

Your smile.

Someone disappeared from my life

and took it with them.

Hello?

Where are you?

Come back right away.

Your boyfriend is causing trouble again.

I've called the police to arrest him.

Okay, I'll come back right now.

Wan,

I need to go home.

I'm sorry.

- You can't get in!
- Hey.

- Hey, move aside.
- Ta, why are you here?

Where have you been, Pleng?

I've been sitting here
waiting for you for so long.

Just stay out of my life.

No, Pleng.

I've decided to stop seeing that woman.

I'll take care of my child
and be the best father I can,

just like you wanted.

- Please, Pleng.
- Let go of me.

- I'm begging you, Pleng. Stay with me.
- I said let go!

- I'm not letting go.
- I said let go.

- Don't touch Pleng!
- Who the hell are you?

- Mind your own business.
- You're the one butting in!

This is a matter between
a husband and wife, stay out of it.

- I'll slap you.
- Go ahead. Do it then.

- How can you do this?
- What's going on?

You wanna end up in jail? Go for it.

I'm reporting everything,
trespassing, harassment, and assault.

You, you, all of you!

- What do you want?
- What are you gonna do about it?

Why are you meddling in my business?

This is between a husband and wife!

Before you claim someone's your wife,
ask her if she's willing to be.

- Yeah, exactly.
- That's right.

You could also be sued for defamation,
did you know that?

If you don't, go study the law first,
so you won't act stupid like this again.

You…

- Hey, hey.
- Hey.

What's going on here?

Damn it!

I told you not to run away, didn't I?

Why won't you listen?

I had no choice.

I don't have the money to pay.

But I do. I can pay for you.

Don't do this, Wan.

You don't need to feel sorry for me.

I'm not feeling sorry for you.

Then why are you helping me?

As a friend?

We've been apart for a long time, Wan.

You probably forgot about me already.

Do you think forgetting someone is easy?

I'm not like you.

For you, everything comes easy.

When you want to leave, you just leave.

And when we meet again,

you run away just as easily.

- You're really selfish.
- Wan…

Go back and get treatment.

If you don't want me to help you
as a friend,

then let me help you as a doctor.

And…

What kind of doctor
pays for their patient's treatment?

This doctor right here.

Just for this one patient.

- Let's go.
- Wan…

You don't have to pay for me.

Just lend me the money.

When I get back to work and make money,
I'll pay you back.

Where's Dr. Wan?

I heard she went home to get something.

I will take care of this from here.

Okay.

What did you get?

Some clothes.

I plan to stay here overnight
until you get better.

So you won't run off again.

And stop writing those notes,
leaving letters behind.

I really hate that.

Okay. I won't do it anymore.

But are you allowed to stay here with me?

If someone sees, you'll get in trouble.

I'm not staying here.

I'll sleep in the doctor's quarters.

You finally became a doctor after all.

And you? Are you still playing music?

Of course.

But I'm not writing songs anymore.

Why not?

I play music at a bar at night.

By the time I'm done, it's really late.

Sometimes, I run between several bars.

When I get home, I just rest.

And it's the same cycle, on repeat.

So I don't have much time
for anything else.

Can I ask you something?

What happened?

Why did your life turn out like this?

There's nothing worth telling.

But I want to hear it.

My parents said
you went to stay with your aunt.

But you didn't, right?

No, I didn't go stay with Aunt Pen.

Since I left your house,

I've been renting a room.

And looking for work.

But I didn't finish school.

So no one would hire me.

So I ended up
playing music at a bar at night.

And the pay isn't good?

Why are you in a place like that?

It's not bad, really.

But I have to be frugal.

If I were to live somewhere better,

it would be expensive.

Most of the money I make would go to rent.

But if I stay where I am,

it might be a little tough, but…
at least I can save some money.

And what about that guy?

You used to date him, right?

He should be helping you out.

It's better that he doesn't, really.

Otherwise, he'd be harassing me
even more than he already is.

You know, his wife even came

to cause a scene
while I was singing at the bar.

I'm sorry.

It's because of me and my parents

that your life turned out this way.

It's not your fault.

It's just fate.

Besides, I think
your parents probably had their reasons.

Eat more of your food.

And don't forget to take your medicine.

I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

You're a patient.

How could you sneak out like this?

I came out to follow you.

You say you don't like it when I run away,
but you're doing it yourself.

I didn't run away.

I told you I'd be back.

I didn't leave a letter and disappear
or anything.

Are you going to keep
being sarcastic forever?

- I'm thinking about it.
- Wan…

Hurry up and move your things out.

I'm giving you two more days.

What happened?

It's the landlady.

She told me to move out within two days.

Actually, I was already planning to move,
but two days is too fast.

I haven't even thought

about where to go.

Why don't you stay with me?

No, your parents
might not be comfortable with it.

I don't live with my parents anymore.

I live alone.

Come stay with me, Pleng.

You live here? Wow, you must be rich.

I'm not rich.

I just found a place
that's close to my work.

You play the piano too?

Do I look like someone
who plays the piano?

Then why did you buy it?

I bought it for someone.

There's something else.

Here.

It sounds so beautiful.

But I can't tell the difference
between guitar sounds.

I just know that if you're playing,
it's always beautiful.

I wish I had one.

Why don't you ask your dad
to buy you one for your birthday?

No way.

The one I have at home
is already super expensive.

I don't want to trouble my dad.

Hey…

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.

Let's go home.

Wait.

It's okay.

If one day I become a doctor,
and I make lots of money,

I'll buy one for you myself.

I've kept my promise, you know.

And don't forget to play it for me too.

Why? Are you missing my music?

I am.

Your room is filled with things I like.

Be careful,
I might stay with you for a long time.

It's up to you.

You can stay for life if you want.

- I wouldn't mind.
- But I would.

Just you lending me the money
for my medical bills

already makes me feel bad.

I wouldn't dare stay with you for long.

So what?

Are you going to run away from me again?

No.

I need to find a way to move forward.

You don't have to. Stay here.

You don't need to run away anymore.

As for what you owe me,

- I'm letting it go.
- Wan, but…

Please.

Please stay here, Pleng.

I can't stay

if you're going to leave my life again.

Don't be dramatic, okay?

I'm not being dramatic. I'm serious.

You don't know
how hard life is without you in it.

It's so heavy.

Getting through each day

is so hard.

I won't argue
that you've had it tougher than me.

But believe me,

your heart hasn't suffered
as much as mine.

Okay.

I won't go anywhere.

I'll stay here with you.

And…

I'll use everything in your room
to my heart's content.

And I won't clean anything either.

I'll let you do it.

Wan.

I'm going to take a shower.

The bra you're wearing,

is it the one I bought for you?

Why does it still look so new?

It's been a long time.

I took good care of it.

And it's one of the few things
you left behind.

- I'm going to shower now.
- Wan…

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for leaving you.

I'm sorry that… I hurt you.

I'm sorry that
all this time, I never knew how much

you were hurting because of me.

I'm truly sorry.

I know
you probably haven't forgiven me yet,

but that's okay.

Since I'll stay here with you now,

I have plenty of time
to make it up to you.

If you don't forgive me today,

one day, you will.

You're so confident.

I'm a very confident person.
You didn't know that?

So, do you want me
to forgive you right now?

Of course.

What do I have to do? Just tell me.

Take a shower with me.

No, Wan.

Why not?

We used to shower together all the time
when we were kids.

But now we're grown up, Wan.

It's not the same as when we were kids.

And besides,
we haven't seen each other in so long.

- I'm not used to it.
- Come on, just come.

- Come here.
- No, Wan, stop. What are you doing?

Wan…

Can you stay still for a moment?

Why?

Because I want to hug you.

I've missed you.

Are you okay, Wan?

Did you have a nightmare?

No. I usually wake up around this time.

At 4 a.m.?

What do you wake up to do?

You should go back to sleep.

Are you sure you're okay, Wan?

In a little while, I'll head to work,

and I won't be back until the evening.

Feel free to do whatever you want.

Eat slowly. You're going to make a mess.

See? You've already made a mess.

What are you doing, Wan?

I don't want to waste it.

I'm heading to work now.

Are you going to work or somewhere else?

Why are you wearing an armband?

I'm going to work, of course.

But I'm riding my bike,
so I have to wear UV protection.

Riding a bike?

Like Meg Ryan. The Meg Ryan you like.

I'm heading to work now.

And when I get back,
I'll collect my reward.

What reward?

Well, the reward
for me being Meg Ryan for you.

I don't have any reward for you.

But I'll wait for you to come back
and have dinner with me.

That's enough for me.

But… can we skip dinner?

I'd rather eat something else.

Stop talking nonsense, Wan.

Go to work before you're late.

Alright, I'm going. See you later.

You've grown up, Wan, and gotten cheeky.

Pleng?

Ek?

Pleng.

PLEASE GIVE THIS TO YOUR PARENTS

Wan. It's almost 4 a.m. now.

This is the first time

that I've woken up before you.

To write a letter telling you
that I've left.

I'm sorry I had to do it this way.

But believe me,
it's for the best for everyone.

Your parents will feel at ease.

And you'll finally get to live your life
as your true self.

Thank you for everything.

And thank you for all you've done for me.

I know you love me

but I also want you to love yourself

and be proud of who you are.

It's a shame.

If I had known how talented you are,

I would've celebrated with you.

And we both
could have been happy together.

Because I don't care
if others see us as competitors.

Or what others think of us.

The only person I care about is you.

Pleng!

Pleng!

But whatever. It'll be a new day soon.

Everyone has to keep living their lives.

You'll have to go to school
and I'll have to go my own way.

To be honest, I'm scared too.

I don't know what's ahead of me.

But don't worry about me,
I'll take good care of myself.

And I'll always think of you.

Oh, about what I said
when I told you my feelings had changed…

Don't believe that.

I only said that out of spite.

Because in truth, no matter what happens,

I still love you,

and I'll love you forever.

You look a bit stressed today.

If the compensation isn't enough,
you can ask for more.

I'll transfer it to you.

Let go of me.

If you don't stop,
I'm going to lose my patience.

And then what? What are you going to do?
