About last night…

Why did you kiss me?

I saw you've been uneasy.

And you didn't feel anything?

It's just like a one-night thing.

It's like kissing someone at a bar or club.

That guy is your ex, right?

When I'm tired, I want to hug my boyfriend and be clingy.

I think I'm worn out.

I don't really know what I should feel.

But hearing “nothing” hurts.

Because I really felt nothing at that time.

What was I supposed to do?

Then how about kissing me again?

It must be more—

Why is your name Lava?

My dad named me.

He said the day I was born was the hottest day of the year.

And when he took my mom to the hospital,

he walked like he was crossing a volcano.

So yeah, that's how I got the name Lava.

I thought

you'd say it's because you're hot.

Well, was I hot last night?

What's your real name then?

TIWAKORN RAPEEPONG

Tiwakorn Rapeepong.

What does it mean?

“Tiwakorn” means “the sun.”

And “Rapeepong,”

my dad's family name, means “descendant of the sun.”

What do you say?

Hot both front and back, huh?

I wish I had a real name too.

“Wave” doesn't feel enough.

I don't even know my birthday,

my parents, or my real name.

Everything I have is because of you and Uncle Peng.

I still hope that someday someone will come looking for you.

There must be someone out there who loves and cares about you.

But what if they're all dead?

Maybe the people who hurt me killed my family too.

That's why no one's ever come for me.

Maybe I'll have to stay as Wave forever.

I promise I'll help you find your past.

But for now, I just want you to enjoy the present with me.

What about the future?

I don't know, and I don't care either.

As long as I'm happy right now, that's enough.

BANGSAWAN ISLAND SCHOOL

Wait for me here.

I'll pick you up this evening.

Okay, but no rush.

I'm teaching a classical piano class today.

It'll probably take a while.

You're good, you know?

Someone like me could never be a teacher.

I'm too hot-headed.

I wouldn't be able to teach anyone.

You should try it.

There's nothing quite like the joy of seeing a kid happy through music.

Music, huh?

I doubt I could do it.

I can't stay focused long enough to learn anything properly.

I already know

you're impatient and get frustrated easily.

Are you subtly insulting me?

No, I'm saying it straight.

Try to calm down sometimes.

Consider and analyze the consequences.

Got it, Mr. Tiwakorn Rapeepong?

Whoa, Teacher Wave's spirit really took over, huh?

Hello, teacher.

I forgot my homework.

How are you going to punish this student?

Hmm? What's the punishment?

Hey.

Stop it.

Aomsin's probably waiting already.

Yes, teacher!

Yes, sir.

That's enough.

See you this evening.

Go.

See you, teacher.

Go already.

PHONGSAKORN KIATNIKOM PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT, PROMOTE TOURISM, AND STAND AGAINST CORRUPTION.

Good luck, Peng.

Thank you. Please vote for number 5.

Of course. You've got my vote.

You're already the people's favorite.

You don't even need to campaign.

They just say that.

Who knows if they'll actually vote for me.

Look at my opponent.

His whole family's in politics on this island.

How can I compete with that?

If you give up before you even start, why run at all?

Come on, have some faith.

Life is all about hope.

Don't lecture me.

Just fix that banner. It's not centered.

Make sure it's centered.

Is it centered now?

Yeah, it looks good.

HONEST. SAY IT, DO IT. FAITH IN ASAWATHAI, READY TO SERVE AND PROSPER. CHETTA ASAWATHAI.

I'll go grab more banners.

This side job outside the resort should come with extra pay.

Of course. I'll pay you.

I wouldn't make you work for free.

What are you saving up for, anyway?

For Wave?

You slept with him already, huh?

Yeah.

Whatever you're going to do, be careful.

Careful of what?

We're young. It's normal.

You have to remember that everything is new to Wave.

The way you get close to him…

he'll feel deeply about everything you do.

Are you sure you're ready?

Ready for what?

Ready to be his whole world.

If we don't know where he came from,

from now on,

you're the most important person in his life.

I don't think so.

People don't get attached that fast.

You're underestimating this.

You've got experience. You're vaccinated.

He's not someone you meet at a bar

and forget the next morning.

Look at him.

He's ready to get attached to anyone who treats him well.

Excuse me, uncle, have you seen Aomsin?

I had a piano lesson scheduled with him.

I have been waiting for a while, but he hasn't shown up yet.

I haven't seen him.

He usually comes early.

Maybe you can go check at his house.

It's not far.

Aomsin.

Aomsin.

Aomsin.

Aomsin.

What are you doing?!

Hey! What are you doing to me?

Ugh! Ouch!

Who are you?

Who are you?!

Dad!

That's my dad!

Why didn't you show up for today's piano class?

I came to check.

I told him he's not going.

It's useless.

What poor kid learns piano?

Of course he can.

Music has no class barrier.

And can it make money?

He might become a world-class musician one day.

My dad said, “Stop being delusional.”

I just want him to have a good job,

not become a musician like me.

I've already suffered enough.

But he's really talented.

I'm sure he'll go far.

Hey!

Don't fill the kid's head with a hopeless dream.

Let him face reality.

At the hospital, we mostly get emergency cases like this.

They're mostly motorcycle accidents.

Tourists aren't used to the island roads.

Not just the tourists, actually.

I'm even scared of those roads.

They're like roller coasters.

I can barely shift gears in time.

You'll get used to it.

I think you'll need a few scratches to learn.

I guess I'll need you to show me how to handle it then.

Anytime.

I'll take you on a wild ride myself.

You said it.

Hello, Dr. Wut.

Hi, Mr. Peng.

This is Dr. Mai, our new doctor.

He just transferred here.

Hello.

Hello. You're…?

I'm Peng.

I'm Dr. Mai.

I'm the new doctor here,

and my name is also Mai, which literally means “new.”

I'm sorry. I know doctor jokes are a bit dry.

It's not as sharp as a scalpel.

Dr. Wut, how about dinner tonight?

I'd love to try some southern dishes—

Yellow Curry, Fermented Fish Curry,

Stir-Fried Sataw Beans, and Southern Spicy Herb Rice Salad.

With that much food, please be careful.

Your stomach might not be able to handle it.

Southern dishes are strong in flavor.

Don't worry. I came well-prepared.

Alright then, I'll take you.

But today, I need to take care of some business first.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Peng.

Likewise, Dr. Mai.

Welcome to the island.

If there's anything I can help with, just let me know.

I work closely with locals, taking care of them,

and your job is also to take care of them.

So, taking care of the doctor is my responsibility too.

Then I'll take my leave.

See you later, Doctor.

SHOWDOWN OF THE LEGENDARY DUO!

Wave.

I went to the school,

and the janitor told me to follow you here.

I'm sorry.

I took a bit too long convincing Aomsin's dad.

He won't let his kid learn.

Why are you bothering so much?

I can't let that happen.

Are you just going to let his parents decide a life he doesn't want?

Just because they've fallen or made mistakes

doesn't mean their child should stop chasing their dream.

You don't even know him.

You can't make decisions for him.

Music might not even be the most important thing in his life.

Poor people don't have time to indulge in art.

They have to work to survive.

But I think Aomsin deserves a chance to live a life he chooses.

And if it were you,

I bet you wouldn't let anyone decide your life either.

Right, Mr. Tiwakorn Rapeepong?

I think you're not the kind to just obey.

I'm not a dog.

And stop assuming things about me.

You don't know me that well yet.

Is the new doctor hitting on you?

Do I need to be jealous?

I'm not sure.

Maybe he is.

He's still single.

But you're not single anymore.

You've got a boyfriend.

Really?

Why do I feel like I don't have one at all?

Are you still sulking?

I'm not sulking.

Maybe it's just that I've gotten used to it.

But I don't know how long that will last.

Why are you saying this?

You know what I've been through.

I know you came from a pressuring family.

But now you've broken free.

You're already bold, so go all the way.

You wouldn't understand

because your life never had to prove anything.

Why did you say that?

You don't know what I went through to finally tell my parents.

If you can't do it yourself, don't judge others.

Give it to me.

I'll cut it for you.

No need.

Let me do it. Stay still.

No. I can do it myself.

Don't be stubborn.

Look. Your nails are so long.

You need to take good care of yourself.

Got it?

Stay still.

Watching the sunset every day is my kind of happiness.

Some days the sky is orange.

Some days the sky's really overcast.

One day, I even saw it purple with a hint of pink.

Pink sky, huh?

Did you take something or what?

I'm serious.

You know, the beauty of nature,

the atmosphere,

and the charm of this island

make me think…

Think what?

Maybe I don't need to know who I am anymore.

Right now, I'm happy.

I'm with nature,

finding joy in teaching music,

and I've got…

Got what?

I've got my own sun.

Ugh! That's cutting into me.

What were you even cutting?

I'll do it myself.

What? You didn't even flinch.

Wave, what are you doing?

Wave, what are you even doing?

I like touching you, feeling your skin.

It feels soft.

Soft? It's so rough.

But I think it feels warm.

Wave, you're tickling me!

Wave, I'm hot!

Hot?

Yeah.

Then take off your top.

I'll take mine off too.

Wave!

Wave!

Wave, no!

What's wrong with you?

Did I do something to upset you?

You can tell me.

Nothing's wrong.

Uncle Peng kept me busy.

I'm not in the mood.

Then we can just lie down and hug.

I can't sleep. You go ahead.

What's wrong with you?

You're acting weird today.

Nothing, just thinking about some things.

I'll go sleep in the living room.

(He's not someone you meet at a bar and forget the next morning.)

(Look at him.)

(He's ready to get attached to anyone who treats him well.)

Hook.

Jab.

Hook.

Hook.

Hook.

Watch out!

Jab.

Straight.

Straight.

Come on. 2,3,4,5,6!

Kick!

Caught it!

Ouch!

You serious?

Even if you're fighting as an amateur, he's way more of a fighter than you.

I want to try.

If I don't, I won't know.

I want to win.

I want the money!

What are you going to do with it?

Get married or something?

Married, my ass.

I'll use it to buy back my dad's motorbike.

Then why don't you borrow from your mom or Uncle Peng?

Ask for money from two people who look down on me?

I won't ask for help.

I'll do it myself.

You studied architecture, didn't you?

Why aren't you building houses?

Why the hell are you boxing?

You've still got a lot of training to do, dude.

By the way,

do you like Kratae?

Why? Are you scared of me?

Asshole!

What the hell could I be scared of?

Look at yourself.

I'm cool and stylish like this.

Anyone would like me.

I thought you said you didn't know how to box.

Damn, my mouth is full of sand.

So you're not into her?

No. She's not my type.

Even this cute, she's still not your type?

Then what's your type?

How do you feel when playing guitar?

I feel like I don't need anything.

Making others happy makes me feel at ease.

That's how Aomsin feels when he plays piano.

Don't you want your son to be happy?

I understand your concerns,

but at least let Aomsin do what he loves.

Whatever the result,

it's better than letting him be sad without trying.

Wave.

Wave.

Don't worry.

Your type and mine are totally different.

No overlaps.

Great.

Then I'll step up my offensive game.

Whoa.

Come on, practice more if you want to win.

Sure.

Get up.

One hit!

You weren't careful enough.

What?

Not “what,” Wave. That's not it.

High pitch.

“Whaaaat?”

Whaaaat?

Yeah, that's it.

What does it mean?

It means, “what's up?”

What's up?

Exactly.

Good thing I learned Southern Thai.

Now I can understand the locals better.

It's evening now.

Where are Lava and Uncle Peng?

Why haven't they returned yet?

Today there's a candle procession at the temple.

The Chief is probably there campaigning, and Lava is likely there too

since everyone from around here is going.

Finished.

Thank you.

Pick some flowers, incense, and candles for me.

If you've got hands, then use them.

I want you to pick them for me.

Making merit together this life, next life we'll be born as a couple.

No chasing, no fuss.

But I just want to meet you this one lifetime.

Here you are, Lava.

Wave isn't coming?

He's sick. He's resting at home.

Is he okay?

Honestly, I'm worried.

If worst case, he forgets everything,

Uncle Peng and you will really have to be his new family.

Then when will you be part of my family?

Here.

Oh?

Giving me flowers like this, you've got feelings, huh?

Even for the dead, we give flowers.

Whoa! You know what?

This kind of woman is my dream woman.

She keeps up with me perfectly.

Homage to the Buddha, the Worthy.

Peng, are you campaigning?

You never miss temple events or ordinations.

I'm not campaigning.

I always help at the temple here.

Anyone would be lucky to have you as a son-in-law.

By the way, do you have a girlfriend?

Not yet.

Right now, I'm focusing on building myself up.

If not, then I'll reserve my daughter for you.

One day, come eat at my house.

Sure.

We're heading off.

Eh, Mr. Peng?

You're the temple coordinator here too?

I see you everywhere.

I usually help here anyway.

Good. Keep it up.

Thank you.

Is it always this cool in the evenings?

Yes, it's always like this.

A bit more and it'll turn into a storm.

True.

Oops.

Tum!

There's so much space around.

Why are you bumping into me?

I want to walk beside you

so I can pile up merit and get to heaven.

I'll definitely get to heaven, but I'll kick you down to hell.

How about a date at the Brass Pan straight to hell?

Hey, don't sigh yet.

Hey?

How did you get here?

I biked here.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming to the temple?

I didn't plan to.

Tum invited me.

Then what's wrong with you?

Why are you avoiding me?

It's not something to talk about now.

Wait until I finish the three rounds of the candle procession.

Since when did you get so religious?

You usually don't behave yourself.

Now you're suddenly scared of sin?

I don't like it when you do this.

If you're mad, just say so.

I need to keep some distance from you.

Why?

Why do we have to keep our distance?

You're getting too attached to me.

What do you mean?

After we slept together,

I could tell you wanted something more.

But you're not ready yet.

You're still fragile.

Anything that comes your way could shake you.

I don't want to take advantage of that.

Take advantage?

I'm willing to be with you.

I don't want you to get too attached to me.

I can't even handle myself right now.

How can I handle someone else's feelings?

You can't just treat me like this.

Why not?

This is who I am.

I've always been like this.

I think right now we should focus on getting you back home instead.

Oh, Wave, you're here?

Lava said you were sick.

Yeah, I'm sick.

Instead of taking care of myself,

I went and made myself worse.

It's all my fault.

I brought this pain on myself.

I'll head back now.

Hey.

Eh? Wave.

Have some tea with us before you go.

What's the rush?

You two fought, didn't you?

How about talking it out at the tea shop?

Some other time.

I'm exhausted from boxing practice today.

Shall we go rehearse the tea ceremony first, babe?

Sure, but mind if I splash it in your face too?

I want to see

how long a shameless guy like you can keep chasing me.

As longggg as it takes,

long enough to stand the heat.

You're going to treat me or what?

Of course. At my level, I always treat.

Right!

Technically we're not supposed to sell on Buddhist holidays,

but I feel bad for you.

Seeing you walk in with tears in your eyes,

a heartbreak champion like me will give you some advice tonight.

I don't understand.

Did I do something wrong?

It's me. I'm the one who caught feelings.

Why is he scared I'll get hurt?

It's not like I asked anyone to take care of me.

Maybe he thinks you're too soft, inexperienced or something.

But honestly, I think he was trying to protect you.

Protect me?!

More like being selfish!

Someone like him never thinks about anyone else.

True.

I totally agree.

Just another jerk who takes advantage when you're vulnerable!

Exactly!

By the way, you still haven't told me who broke your heart.

You don't need to know.

He told me to forget him,

so I'll drink to forget.

Hey, that's my drink.

That's mine.

Chill out.

That's mine.

Let go!

It's a Buddhist day, you know.

Why aren't you asleep yet?

Wave followed me to the temple,

and we got into a small argument.

Now I've just found out he's not home yet.

What were you fighting about?

I told him not to get too attached to me.

I can't take responsibility for his life.

Then he rode off somewhere.

I'd better go find him.

Yeah, you should.

We took him in.

We must look after him the best we can.

Lava.

Maybe I don't know as much as I thought I did.

I gave you advice,

but I can't even handle myself.

If you meet someone who makes you feel good,

follow your heart.

Don't overthink it.

He might not wait for you forever.

COLLECTION: MEMORY

Chief,

kaya toast delivery.

I know you love this place.

It's not too sweet,

and no worries about calories.

I thought you'd gone home already.

Didn't you say you wanted me here?

Well, here I am.

Hey, do you really think I'd dump you for the new doctor?

I don't know.

I just feel like I deserve it.

We've been together for so long.

Do you still not know me?

I've only known that guy for a few days.

You think I'd throw away a year‑long relationship for that?

I didn't mean it like that.

I just get scared.

I just have to get mad sometimes,

so you'll know I still have feelings,

not just agreeing to your conditions.

You can be mad at me. I get it.

You have every right to.

You've put up with my nonsense all this time,

and I know how lucky I am that you chose me.

Yeah, you're super lucky.

You know how many people are lining up to flirt with me?

Oh really?

Then why did you choose me?

Wait. You want me to flatter you now?

Just a little, please.

I need my confidence back.

I like how serious you are when you work,

and how cute you get when you're in love.

Then stay at my resort tonight.

Call it a small step,

but I promise I'll take a bigger,

steadier one next time,

even straight to your doorstep.

Is it good?

Honey.

All I can do is accept the pain…

Honey. Where is Wave?

Wave!

Wave!

Wave!

Why are you doing this?

Go home.

I'm not going back.

It's my life. I can take care of myself.

Don't talk big.

You can't even remember who you are.

What could you possibly take responsibility for?

Then why do you even care?

You don't want me to get attached or feel anything,

so just let me get drunk here.

I can sleep at Honey's place tonight.

Or maybe I should just move in here,

so I'll stop being a burden,

both to you and to your heart.

Don't act tough.

Go home with me.

You really want me to go home?

If you do,

then do as I say.

What?

Kiss me.

Come on, Wave.

Prove it.

Prove that you really don't feel anything for me.

What does that have to do with anything?

If I say it does, then it does.

Don't you ever feel a little something for me, Mr. Tiwakorn Rapeepong?

Go home with me right now.

Uncle Peng is waiting.

You just don't have the guts.

Who's really the coward and the weak one here?

I'm not arguing with you.

You're too drunk to even walk home.

Go home with me. Now!

I came here alone. I'll go home alone.

Wave!

Wave, come out!

I'm not joking!

Wave!

I'll count down.

If you don't come out, I'm leaving!

Five!

You know this area is haunted, right?

The ghosts here are vicious.

Four!

People said

someone once fell from a palm tree and died here.

The body was a mess.

You should watch out.

Three!

Rumors say

there are venomous snakes around here.

Pythons are as big as a person.

It could swallow you whole.

Be careful!

Two!

The forecast said there's a storm coming.

It's a freaking strong one.

You'll get blown away for sure.

Strongest storm yet, I swear.

One!

Fine! Tomorrow I'll come check what's left of you —

whether a ghost got your neck,

snake ate you,

or the storm swept you away.

You'll get blown away!

I'm heading back!

Zero!

Wave.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to yell at you.

I didn't want to scold you.

But it's just…

I think I really do have feelings for you.

I've really started falling for you.

But I don't want you to fall too deep for me

because I'm a jerk.

I don't want to hurt you.

I'm sorry.

Please, come out.

I think I should learn things on my own,

whether it's pain or love.

I don't have any memories of those things anyway.

Who are you to decide how I should live my life?

And don't say it's because you care.

You're just scared.

Scared of what?

You're scared that you'll love me.

You're scared you'll get hurt.

You're scared that one day I'll forget you.

You act tough on the outside,

but deep down, you're lonely as hell.

You protect me because it makes you feel valued—

like someone in this world actually needs you.

You know me better than I know myself.

Come on. Let's go home.

I can't walk.

Damn it,

I've been running around looking for you.

I'm exhausted too.

You said you liked me, didn't you?

Then why don't you want to take care of me?

Fine, I do.

Come here.

Hey, that tickles!

That tickles!

What are you doing?

Stay still.

I didn't know that's how you eat an orange.

You've still got a lot to learn being with me,

Mr. Nava Mahasamut.

Wait, what did you just call me?

Nava Mahasamut.

You said you wanted a real name, right?

I found one with a nice meaning.

What does it mean?

Nava means “boat.”

Mahasamut means “ocean.”

I wanted something related to water,

and I think Nava suits your nickname.

Plus…

Lava goes well with Nava.

I like it. It fits me.

A boat floating in the ocean…

until one day it crashes onto an island with a volcano.

That's how Nava met Lava.

You're thinking far ahead, huh?

But fire and water?

How can they ever coexist?

I don't know either.

It's better to just let it happen naturally.

NAVA MAHASAMUT.

General, we've received a report from our informant in Thailand.

About what?

About Prince Davin.

Has a body been found?

No.

The prince is still alive.

I knew Victor would fail this mission.

Send someone to deal with this as soon as possible.

Send our best operative.

I'm entering a boxing match.

Why?

To win back my dad's motorbike.

I believe in you. You can do it.

Do you have a vacant room?

I was thinking of going to the beach nearby.

Should we take him there, Lava?

You're too eager. He didn't even ask for help.

Why would you take him there?

Back off a bit. That's too close!

That's the guy who pushed me!

Uncle! Watch out!
