Original subtitles

I found out the reason we had so many customers

was because she shared the clip of Som.

But I can help you.

I don't want to owe anyone anything.

Mom, ever since you found out Tonnam was my girlfriend,

you haven't been acting the same.

I just feel like maybe I shouldn't be here.

But being apart won't mean we break up, right?

Where did you get this much money?

She didn't go for her PhD because she gave the money to you.

You've always supported me.

But now, I don't want to receive help from you anymore.

ARTS, LAW, ARCHITECTURE FACULTIES

1108, right?

She was my first friend and acquaintance when I started my first year

because my student ID number was next to hers.

Is something wrong?

No, nothing. I just wanted to ask your name.

MANATSANAN

Manatsanan? I'm Thantara.

Back then, I thought I was lucky I got to know Mahnmook.

I saw you couldn't take notes in time.

You can copy mine first.

She always helped me out.

Thanks.

You can copy this.

Ask me if there's anything you don't get.

I'm so tired of always helping you.

Can you learn to do it yourself?

Please.

From that day on, I decided not to rely on anyone again

until I met Maewnam.

Oong!

The one who changed that feeling without me realizing it.

The store hasn't gone down yet.

We're just facing a storm.

There might be some damage,

but once the storm passes, we can repair it.

Just don't give up.

She's the one who showed me

how good it feels to have someone's hand to hold when I'm tired.

Don't stress too much, okay?

Smile.

She didn't go for her PhD

because she gave the money to you.

I thought I had changed,

but the truth is, I'm still Wan, the same old mess.

Where have you been? Why didn't you answer my calls?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Wait, did we have plans today?

Yeah. I came to return this.

LAND TITLE DEED

What's wrong?

Why are you crying again?

You got it back now, didn't you?

CHUM-LAE GROCERY

So it was Maewnam's money?

I thought your store was making a profit.

Profit? Please.

Just getting by each day is hard enough.

Hang in there.

Noey, do you know any way I could pay Maewnan back

besides borrowing from you?

Hey, maybe she didn't really want to get a PhD, like she said.

If she didn't want to study,

what other reason could there be other than saying it to ease me?

I don't know,

but I believe there must be one.

But for now, let me rest.

I'm really tired.

- Can you close up the store for me? - Sure. Get some rest.

Okay, and thanks a lot.

How is Wan?

Is she mad at me?

Not really,

but it's hard to explain.

Should I go talk to her now?

No. Let her be by herself for now.

Trust me. Head home first.

Thanks for helping with my store this much.

It's our success together anyway.

I love you, Maewnam.

I love you too, Wan.

Hey, Chom!

Are you feeling okay, sweetie?

Hold still! Let me take a photo as a keepsake.

Click! Wow.

Once in a hundred years, you actually do your own laundry.

Come on, Mom.

People have to improve themselves sometimes.

I can't let others say I'm acting worse just because I have a girlfriend now.

What do you want for breakfast? I'll make you some.

Nothing. I'm having breakfast with my girlfriend.

You got a problem with that?

Nope.

Good. That saves me the trouble of cooking.

Girlfriend this, girlfriend that.

She keeps saying that.

Have you been waiting long?

No, not really. I don't mind.

What time did you leave home?

I left as early as I could.

- Good morning, Professors. - Good morning.

You two look so cute together.

Here. Pinky's special tom yum fried rice.

And a less-sweet cappuccino for my chubby babe.

Huh? This is "less sweet"?

And this is tom yum?

It's super sweet.

It's very sweet indeed.

This is great.

Now we've decided to go public, we finally get to eat with just the two of us.

I've been waiting so long for this.

Same here.

Hold up.

It's yummy.

I'll join you two.

Oh? You two can sit together now?

I've noticed you haven't argued much lately.

Right? That's a good sign.

Well, we're dating.

There it is!

Dating?

- You two are dating? - We've been together for so long.

So long? Oh my gosh.

So all the bickering was just an act?

Yeah. We had to fake it because we didn't want Mom to find out.

Does she know now?

She does, so we decided to go public.

- And how did she take it? - She didn't say much.

She seems okay with it.

Oh? Maewnam, there you are.

Why didn't you come eat with us?

I'm not hungry. I don't feel like eating either.

What's wrong?

You haven't cleared things up since that day?

Oh. Wan's pretty tough, huh?

She even showed up here to break up.

She just said no more help.

She didn't actually ask to break up.

I only wanted to help however I could.

I didn't think it'd make her feel bad.

You could tell her that.

I don't know.

I'm scared it'll make her feel worse.

But are you really okay with letting it go on like this?

No.

Sure, she might be mad or avoiding you.

But if you love her, you shouldn't let things stay like this, right?

Tell her you'll wait until she's ready, however long it takes.

But if you don't want to say that,

just show up and let her see your face often.

It's better than sitting around like this.

SOM, HELP US PICK!

I'm really sorry.

Som's feeling stressed right now.

There were so many people this morning.

I'm sorry.

But I came all the way from Nakhon Nayok.

I wanted Som to help me do a random pick.

Can't we try just once?

I'm really sorry. I just can't make an exception.

If I do it for you, I'll have to do it for everyone.

Also, I don't want to force Som.

If you're not ready, maybe you shouldn't be doing it at all.

Ugh! I traveled so far to get here.

Hey, you don't need to buy anything here.

Let's head back. She's not ready for anything.

Let's go. Don't bother with this store.

- I'm sorry. - So annoying.

PAY HERE.

Som, take a break.

You did great today.

When I'm full, I feel sleepy.

So, you've got no more work left?

Just this!

A plushie prize for Som.

Do you want help?

Sure.

We just have to stuff it real fat.

How? Like this?

- Yeah, make it chubby. - Wow.

Som will be so happy

because we put a lot of effort into making it together.

- Right? - Yeah.

Aw, it's done.

Our baby plushie is so cute.

What? Baby?!

Did I say something wrong?

I meant the baby mouse we made for Som together.

Ah, I see.

Let's bring this and play with Som.

- Like this. - No, don't!

Wait, how do you play with it?

How do you play with it?

Like this? Like this?

Hey, come on!

Did you break up with Prof. Maewnam already?

Who told you that?

That whistle sound was loud.

I never said we broke up.

But honestly, whatever.

Now is not the time to care.

Your store is more worrying.

No customers again, right?

Well, I still have regulars,

people in the neighborhood.

But is that really enough?

What are you doing?

I'm making your store survive.

- How could you come up with this? - Look.

Think smart, sell smart.

Oh? Professor Maewnam?

You came to shop?

I came to see Wan.

What are you guys doing?

This area's close to campus.

I think there's a whole target group we've been overlooking. Students.

You know, students at our university love anything they can share and talk about.

We need catchy phrases or copy that grabs their attention.

SHARP ENOUGH TO CUT PAPER, BUT CAN'T CUT YOU OUT OF MY HEART.

You said you didn't want help from anyone.

This kind of help doesn't bother me.

It's because it's from Professor Mahnmook, right?

Maybe she could be a good friend,

like you said.

Oh… I get it now.

Was that too harsh just now?

So you're still not on good terms, huh?

Or is it because I'm here?

Should I leave?

It's fine.

It's good, actually. I can focus on the store.

You might break up for real if this keeps going.

Okay, okay. I'll shut up.

Hey, I'll post the clip with those sticky notes.

It might bring in more students.

Can I also film a video of you introducing the store?

Say anything you want.

Thanks.

Today, I'm showing off a cute grocery store

with quotes that'll steal your heart.

NEVER LOST A GAME OF PING PONG, BUT NEVER WON AN ARGUMENT WITH MOM.

A PENCIL GETS SHARPENED, SO WHY CAN'T I GET A PLACE IN YOUR HEART?

IF YOU WANT SWEETNESS, ADD SUGAR. IF YOU WANT LOVE TO LAST, ADD CARE.

LOLLIPOP? IF YOU WANNA SMILE, THEN JUST SMILE, DON'T HOLD IT IN!

OUR DONUTS? SWEET ENOUGH, JUST NOT TOO MUCH.

CHICKEN STICKS. SO SALTY THEY HIT THE HEART AND WRECK YOUR KIDNEYS.

CRUNCHY NUTS GO CRACK, AND YOUR TEETH GO CRUNCH!

Chum-Lae Grocery is near the campus.

Tell me what you want, and I'll stock it just for you.

- SEE YOU TOMORROW, LET'S GO - THE OWNER IS SO CUTE

I hope a lot of you come to visit us, okay?

When did she reconcile with Mahnmook?

Oh no, Tik!

I'm so sorry I forgot you were waiting to get your hair washed.

It's okay. I'm just resting my eyes.

Oh no! I'm sorry.

You fell asleep, didn't you? I heard snoring.

No. Nobody was snoring.

What are we doing today?

Wash and blow-dry.

- No treatment, right? - Yeah. Just make me look pretty.

- I'm sorry again for the long wait. - Yeah.

- Ugh! - Tik!

I'm sorry!

What happened? Why are you so tired?

How did your arm get burned like that?

It's nothing, really.

"Nothing"? Look at that.

You were being careless, huh?

Ever heard the saying, "Pretty girls are always clumsy"?

Ugh, and what about your arms and legs?

They were too weak to dodge hot water or what?

If I'd known, I'd have brought Snow Lotus cream.

It's good.

Apply it in the mornings and evenings, and the scar will be gone for sure.

All right. I'll have Chompoo bring you some.

Oh, no need. I already took medicine.

What medicine could beat Snow Lotus?

I'll send some with Chompoo.

Really, no need.

But speaking of Chompoo, I'm still in shock, you know.

The other day, she held Tonnam's hand and confessed they've been dating.

Not just dating. They've been together three years!

The reason they hid it that long was you.

She said she didn't tell anyone because she was scared you'd find out.

But, well, you know now, right?

Ow! Sis! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

- Ah! My ear! - Oh gosh! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!

So today I'm not going to the campus.

I have to go see the ear doctor.

I'm not going deaf.

Your mom's hot hair straightener clipped my ear.

Really?

But my mom's a master at straightening.

Exactly! She's done my hair so many times.

But this time, we were just talking,

and then I mentioned her daughter has a girlfriend,

and bam, straight to my ear.

She said sorry countless times.

But I think your mom's been kind of distracted lately.

Yeah.

I want to apologize for her again.

It's okay. All right, that's it for now.

Mom accidentally clipped Tik's ear because she said we're dating.

How's your mom now, Pinky?

She's fine.

I guess she's not okay with us being together.

That's okay.

NEVER LOST A GAME OF PING PONG, BUT NEVER WON AN ARGUMENT WITH MOM.

How much is it?

50 baht.

- I'll scan it. - Okay.

All done.

- Thank you so much. - Thanks.

Do you sell erasers too?

Sure, hang on a sec.

Here it is.

An eraser that can erase anything, except that person from your heart.

Whoa! That hit hard.

But when someone leaves a mark on your heart, it's hard to forget them.

- You'll take one, right? - Sure.

- Scan to pay. - Got it. It's 5 baht.

Here you go.

- Thanks. Here you are. - Thank you.

Professor, here's what you asked me to buy.

And did you say it?

When someone leaves a mark on your heart, it's hard to forget them.

Good job. You've learned well.

Thank you.

Is Wan mad at me?

I shouldn't have spoken sarcastically like that.

Crunchy nuts go crack, and your teeth go crunch?

Is this your new marketing strategy?

Yep. Mahnmook helped with it.

It's pretty good, actually.

Just a few days after posting, we're packed with customers.

Huh…

So, when did you two reconcile?

You didn't even tell me.

I've wanted to for a while,

but you seemed busy from your stories.

I didn't want to bother you.

Even if I'm busy, you can still message me.

I'll catch up later.

So what happened?

Did she come and hurt your feelings again?

Not really.

She just wanted to help.

Help? Or flirt?

She's not flirting.

She really came to help,

and she said she genuinely wants to be friends.

- Seriously? - Yeah.

But like, can people actually be friends with their ex?

I don't know.

I've never had a relationship like that.

But if she can, I'm fine with it.

Don't worry about how she feels.

Worry about yourself. Are you okay?

Me and her? It's been over ten years.

Honestly, I don't feel anything now.

If she says she wants to be friends, then I can be friends.

Do you think it'll work?

Someone like Mahnmook is blunt and straightforward.

If she says "friends," I believe she means it.

What about Maewnam? Are you two okay now?

It's not like Maewnam saw you with her and misunderstood like in a drama, huh?

She did see us, but I don't think she felt anything.

So you two are good now?

Not yet. That's a long story.

Long stories are fine.

I'm not busy today. I can listen all day.

Here.

Crunchy nuts got your teeth going crunch.

Chom, why are you staring at me like that?

Since I've been away from home,

you've been hurt from hands to feet.

What happened, Mom? Why didn't you tell me?

Do I have to tell you everything?

It's just some pain. It can happen every day.

Sure, pain happens, but not every day.

Tik told me everything.

When she mentioned I was dating Tonnam,

you clipped her ear and your own hand too.

Can you please just talk to me, Mom?

I'm tired of having to guess how you feel all the time.

And you keep avoiding talking to me like this.

See? Even now, I'm speaking and you're not even listening.

Tell me what's wrong. Please.

What if I said I don't like that you have a girlfriend?

I kind of already know you're not okay with it.

But I convinced myself you just needed time.

So I kept my distance…

hoping you'd open your heart one day and understand me better…

because when other people came out,

you always supported them and cheered them on.

Why can't you do that for your own kid?

I never wanted things to be like this.

Chom.

I've had you as my daughter for over 20 years.

Then suddenly you tell me

you like girls and you want to date one.

How am I supposed to feel?

I'm not angry or disgusted. I'm not pushing you away.

I just hate myself.

I feel like I don't know you at all.

Every day I ask myself, what have I been doing?

Am I that blind to my own daughter?

It felt like we could talk about anything,

but maybe we couldn't.

I just feel like I don't understand you at all.

I've been such a bad mom.

I know I've hurt your feelings in the past.

I'm sorry.

I love you, Mom.

I love you so much too.

I just don't know how to deal with this.

CHUM-LAE GROCERY

Wan.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah, but I'm just sleepy.

Hey.

You drank so much and still say you're fine?

You're such a lightweight, but you still drink anyway.

Why aren't you drinking?!

I'm driving.

I told you to just sleep here.

Go sleep upstairs. I'll close the store for you.

Hey.

Take care of it for me.

Ow!

Ow!

Noey?

Long time no see.

Why did Wan close her store already?

It's just closed. What are you doing here this late?

What about you?

I'm her close friend.

I can come here anytime.

Really?

What about you then?

When you left Wan, you didn't seem to care.

It's been ten years. You've been gone for so long.

Why show up now and play nice?

I just went to study.

Now I'm back and want to be friends.

- Can't I do that? - What an excuse.

You never wanted to be friends before.

Or is it because she has a girlfriend now?

You're jealous and want her back?

Of course.

They're fighting now too.

Perfect timing, huh?

Taking advantage of their rough patch? This is what you call being a "friend"?

Do friends do that?

Who's really catching feelings here?

You think I didn't notice

the way you looked at Wan back then?

- It's yummy. - Is it?

It's yummy.

Blue Hawaii.

Fine, I like Wan,

and I know she never felt the same.

I'm so tired of always helping you.

Can you learn to do it yourself?

Please.

I've always been a close friend to her.

I've never crossed the line

because I didn't want to lose this relationship.

Just cry.

Let it out if it hurts.

Really?

Or were you just waiting for a chance to swoop in?

Hey, that's going too far.

You feel hurt now?

That hit a nerve?

I just stood there and let you scold me without saying a word.

I said hurtful things to Maewnam too.

But I didn't mean it.

I just didn't want to burden her.

People in love should grow together.

Think about it. If I dragged her down, how do you think I'd feel?

And when you said hurtful things, how do you think she felt?

Yeah. That's why I'm sitting here, full of regret.

At least I know my limits.

I'd never cross the line.

And sure, I was happy to see the deed.

But thinking it over, it's her money anyway, you know?

What should I even do?

Go talk to her.

I can't! I don't want to be a burden anymore.

Hey. Partners don't see each other as burdens.

Well, I do.

That's because I know who she really loves.

My monthly sales didn't go well. I can't beat Mouse Mart.

I can barely get by each month.

I have to keep selling, doing more.

Why can't I be good at anything?

Think about it.

How can someone like me date her?

Everything I said…

I believe you're someone who understands things easily.

And if you mean well regarding Wan,

you should know what to do.

Maewnam, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to…

IM SORRY FORR BEING SOO DUMB, MAEWNAM. I JUS DIDNT WANNA MAKE U STRUGGLE,…

Huh?!

What did I send?!!

"I'm sorry for acting so dumb, Maewnam."

"I just didn't want to make you struggle, always helping me."

"I'm really sorry for how I acted."

"I'm sorry."

How should I deal with this?

Can I just say the cat typed this?

Geez!

You came early.

I read the message you sent.

I've acknowledged and understood everything,

and I'll do exactly what you said.

I won't forgive you just yet,

and I won't be helping you anymore either.

I'm sorry for bothering you with that text.

I haven't finished talking.

I won't help you anymore,

but I've got something for you to do.

WAN SERVICE

"Wan Service"?

That's right.

You have to work and pay off your debt to me.

What do I have to do?

Say, "Fifteen kilos of rice have arrived."

Fifteen kilos of rice have arrived.

Put them next to the gas tank.

It's just fifteen kilos.

Just!

Hey, careful. The bag might tear. Don't spill the rice.

Lift it properly.

Hurry up.

- Make it fast. It's just two boxes. - Yeah, yeah.

Say you've arrived too.

How do I say it?

Wan Service is here.

Wan Service is here!

Wow, such teamwork.

Sis, this is not a team. I'm the boss.

She's my assistant.

Right. The money's where it always is.

- Just grab it. - Got it.

Hurry up!

We passed the shop!

Call him. Say, "Uncle Lee, I'm here."

Uncle Lee, I'm here.

Louder. He can't hear that.

Uncle Lee, I'm here.

Fried dough sticks and soy milk are here.

Fried dough sticks and soy milk are here.

Louder.

Fried dough sticks and soy milk are here!

No wonder that voice sounded familiar.

You're working for Maewnam now?

Uh-uh-uh. Please don't say "working for."

She's my assistant now.

What about the store?

F1 is watching the store for her.

Finish it all, okay?

Got it.

Next stop, the massage parlor.

- But I don't know how to massage. - You're not massaging.

You're hanging curtains.

Huh!?

Don't say, "huh?" You're tall.

Let's go hang curtains. It's easy.

She's trying to adjust,

but it might not happen right away.

It must be tough for her when it's her beloved daughter.

I think I understand her, though.

Before I met you, Chom,

I didn't even understand myself either.

I used to wonder why I didn't like guys

and whether not liking them would hurt my family.

But in the end, there was no reason at all.

Love is love.

It's about feelings.

Chom, you've made me more sure about my feelings.

What about you?

I only feel this way with you.

Then there's nothing to be afraid of anymore.

Even if it's not right away,

however long it takes…

I'll still be right here.

We'll get through this together.

Here's your pay.

Thank you!

Feel free to hire me often.

Watching Wan's store is super easy.

I got paid even more than washing dishes for Mom.

Don't be so loud. She'll smack you.

- Got it. - I'll call you if I need help again.

Sure. Thanks.

Yeah.

Whoa, I biked more today than I have in my whole life.

My legs are dying.

How do you even bike like this every day?

You're awesome.

That's the whole reason I did it. To hear this word.

I'm sorry, my dear.

Did you just call me "my dear"?

I'm sorry, and I promise I won't ever make you cry again, my dear.

Apology accepted,

and you can take your stuff back too.

I'm sorry.

Don't ever do that again, okay?

And from now on, what will you do when I call you?

Come to see you.

Or if I don't…?

Is this place selling love too?

Maewnam Service is temporarily closed.

I'll make every second we spend together the happiest from now on!

Mom, you don't have to do anything.

Just see us as Tonnam and Chompoo, just like before. That's enough.

I might not need to restock the store anymore.

Why?

I do want you to go…

but at the same time, I don't!

We'll get through this together. I'll always be by your side, Maewnam.
