You got it.

What do you think?

Not now. Oh, shit!

Let's forgive each other.

TERROR TUESDAY: EXTREME

INSPIRED BY STORIES SHARED ON TERROR TUESDAY

It's a story from Ton, who is here to tell us about it.

- Ton. Hello. - Hello, Ton.

Hello.

When did the story you're about to tell occur?

It occurred around 2014 - 2015.

And then, a series of incidents followed in 2019.

Fuck!

- Help! I can't swim! Help! - What the hell?

Hey. Were you drowning just now?

Drowning? I was just chilling.

Shit.

Why did you jump in if you can't swim?

I thought you were drowning so I tried to save you.

Damn, I got wet for nothing.

Can I ask you something?

Just now,

why were you facing down?

Thought you were in MV?

Are you keen to share?

EIGHT YEARS LATER

Nat.

What was on your mind?

What were you thinking about just now?

Well...

I have a confession to make.

Today

I've been feeling...

like having steamed squid.

We're already here.

Nat.

Come on.

If you want to have it, don't do that. You scared me.

I thought it was something bad.

You want steamed squid, right?

At that lady's restaurant? Let's go then.

- Don't forget, okay? - Okay.

I'll go to the loo first.

See you at the shrine.

Be quick, okay?

- Yes, ma'am. - You're being bad today.

Your words are annoying me.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

THRILLED TO OFFER YOU THE POSITION OF ARCHITECT.

Praying for what?

I'm not telling you.

Are you sure?

Yes.

- There, there, there! - Hey, stop or the Goddess will choke you.

It creeps me out every time.

If she hears that, she'll surely curse at you.

Hi, Auntie. Two sets, please.

That'll be 40 baht.

Have you been here?

- Do you know how to pray to her? - Oh.

We come here often. No worries.

We run a villa on the Black Hills Beach which is nearby.

My boyfriend came here to do a whole new project

so I came from Bangkok to have a look.

And...

actually,

I'm sure I met him because of my prayer to the Goddess.

Is that so?

- How long have you been together? - Oh, I think

it's been almost eight years.

It all started in college.

- Now, we're almost in our thirties. - Yes.

- Shall we go? - Hold on.

People these days

don't really know the background of this place.

They come to worship just for the sake of it.

Since you come here often,

do you know the true legend of the Black Hills Goddess?

You may have heard

she was a fishmonger's daughter who fell in love with a prince,

leading to a forbidden, cross-class love.

Obstructed by the elders,

she decided to end her life to escape the pain.

It became a famous true love story,

which has inspired lovers to come here and make prayers until today.

But actually,

that's not all.

The prince

actually had a betrothed.

After he had an affair with the Goddess,

he dumped her.

But, of course,

the prince couldn't escape the wrong he had committed.

The Goddess returned to the prince and his betrothed at their house.

She conjured a rainstorm

and used it to slash him down to the bone like a knife.

All the secrets he had hidden from her were unveiled.

Have you ever seen fish getting scored?

Long cuts on their skin?

Both got scored to death.

That is the true identity of the Goddess.

She is the Goddess who believes love is a matter of life and death.

Sometimes she uses her power

to make lovers see each other's true colors.

Think carefully before making your wishes.

Otherwise, you might see what you don't want to see.

But you already know that.

You should go and worship her now.

We hereby vow

in front of you, Black Hills Goddess,

that we'll remain steadfast in our love

and faithful to each other.

We will not keep any problems we may have

from each other.

May the Goddess

help both of us

to be together forever.

It's all smudged.

Let's go so we won't be home late.

Come on.

BUT THY LOVE

SHALL BE IN DISTRESS

IF THOU HIDE

THY PROBLEMS.

WITHHOLD

THY WORDS

AND RISK

THY LOVE'S END.

THE VOW

It's intricate and exquisite.

WE'RE THRILLED TO OFFER YOU...

INBOX

Babe.

It's ten times prettier than the photos.

- Do you like it? - I love it.

Hello, Dad.

I love what Nat did a lot, Dao.

You never disappoint me, Nat.

We're ready to build a new resort in Phuket.

Nat, I'll have you oversee the design from start to finish.

We'll discuss the details soon, okay?

I have to tend to my business now. Talk later.

Bye-bye, Dad.

Hey, babe.

It's on this day,

their wedding anniversary here.

Gosh, it has already been two years.

When we were fresh out of college,

whenever people got married,

I'd feel like

it was so darn soon.

What was all the darn rush?

Like they were afraid to lose their partner.

- Babe. - Babe.

Let's stay together forever.

Let's run the resort together

until we're old, okay?

Love you.

What were you about to say?

It can wait.

Babe, turn off the lights and shut the doors before coming upstairs.

Babe, can you get me some water?

Babe.

Babe.

Did you hear me? Get me water, please.

Dao.

Dao.

Dao, get a grip.

Nat.

"Hide not

any secrets

in thy heart."

"Bring forth

what's hidden,

and think not of fleeing."

"For thy lives

to continue

and to be unharmed...

unveil each other thy hearts."

Nat.

What's this about?

Nat.

- Nat! - Don't!

Last year, I sent my portfolio

to a company in Sweden.

And I heard back from them last week.

I...

I've accepted the offer.

You know I've always wanted to go abroad.

It's my dream.

And now the opportunity is here.

Would you let it go?

But we're running this resort together.

Are you leaving me to run it by myself?

Well, you love this place.

You want to be here until you're old.

But you have to be here, too.

You know what?

You asked me this morning what I was praying for.

I prayed

that I would finally know

what would become of us.

Have you...

ever pictured us getting married?

Hey.

You're awake.

Thanks for always letting me use your place.

From the freshman party

to my baby shower.

You always find us extra work, babe.

You wanted a baby shower like westerners.

Do we look like westerners?

Oh, right, where is Nat?

Did you guys have a fight?

No.

If that's so...

when is the wedding date?

At the baby shower that day, what did you tell your friends?

Can you repeat it to him?

Come on.

Guys.

Do you know...

why I haven't met with you much lately?

I envy you two.

Why can't Nat and I be like you two?

Lately,

I've been feeling suffocated.

I don't know why.

My feelings for him...

have been fading.

I just want us to be able to talk like we used to.

After getting married...

do you love each other more?

If it can help us open up to each other more,

then we must get married, right?

It's better than not having him in my life.

Babe...

Say something.

Babe.

Babe. Stop, Nat.

Nat.

Stop.

Nat! I just didn't want you to leave.

Babe.

Can we go back to the way we were?

I have nothing else to hide.

I have revealed it all.

Revealed it all...

like this?

Nat!

Nat!

Go away!

Go away!

Go away!

Dad.

What else do you two have to tell me?

Let's start with you, Dao.

Can you just stop?

No more.

If you can't think of anything, you can start with Nat's job.

Dad.

What did the doctor say?

Oh, he said the condition of my liver is stable.

Pending chemo test results.

Right.

You said you needed to talk with me.

Well, the new position that you are recruiting,

do you have anyone in mind?

Nat has been applying for jobs, but hasn't got any offers.

Why don't you

talk to him first?

I can't do that.

If he finds out I get this job for him,

he won't like it, Dad.

I've talked to someone else.

Well...

shall we let him work at our resort?

So he won't be stressed out anymore.

I feel sorry for him.

I was just worried about you back then.

Can you understand that?

Are you saying I'm where I am today

because you pitied me?

Your dad had talked to me even before you asked him that.

Am I right,

Dad?

What did you say to me again?

Oh, right.

"Do you remember when I began to fall ill?"

"If something bad happens to me,

how will Dao survive?"

"But I know...

that you have applied for a job in Sweden."

"But can you

stay with Dao

for my sake

for the time being?"

I've never gotten to go anywhere because of you. You should know that.

Well, back then, you told me that...

- they turned you down. - What did you expect me to say?

Did you expect me to say I gave up on my dream for you?

And what happened?

Your dad recovered from his illness,

and I had already taken on the whole project.

I applied for the job abroad

because it was my last chance to escape the life trapped with you!

How...

How could I let things come this far?

You know what?

You are not even the right one for me.

That day,

I just needed someone.

Anyone.

The next thing I knew...

I got my life all tangled up with you.

But wasn't it you who prayed for him to be stuck here with you?

What did you pray for?

Say it!

Say it, Dao.

Say it!

Say it!

Say it, Dao!

Say it!

When we started dating,

I prayed for one thing.

I asked the Goddess...

to do anything

to keep you with me forever.

Anything at all.

But I should've known better.

I didn't know it'd mean everything,

including your desire to study abroad

and work in Sweden.

Without me in those plans, everything just failed.

I recently realized that.

I'm sorry.

- I just didn't want you to leave... - Why did you do that?

Why are you so selfish?

Answer me!

Nat!

Nat, don't!

Give me back those eight years!

Why did you do that? Tell me!

Why did you do it?

Tell me, Dao.

Tell me! Why did you do it?

Nat!

No!

Can I ask you something?

Just now...

why were you facing down?

Why did you jump in if you can't swim?

I thought you were drowning so I tried to save you.

Damn, I got wet for nothing.

So, you have nothing else to do?

No, I'm on patrol.

This is my family's resort.

You own this place?

Yes, why?

Damn.

That's so cool.

Can I ask you something?

Just now,

why were you facing down?

Why? Thought you were in MV?

I'm heartbroken.

Are you keen to share?

She was my first girlfriend.

We'd been together since ninth grade, and I'd always thought she'd be my last.

She was the one.

Definitely her.

But she didn't feel the same way.

And she got to know Best because of me.

And then my friend and my ex left together.

That's why I was in the pool all by myself

until you jumped in just now.

Damn!

That freaking hurts.

I can't believe that happened in our faculty.

Actually...

I barely know what's going on there.

I'm just...

someone whose family owns a resort

for them to hold freshmen parties.

I want to know...

how those people

who have a lot of friends...

feel about it.

Actually, I want to have friends too.

I want to have someone to talk to.

Someone to share with.

But well,

I can be alone. No biggie.

Maybe it's not about the number.

If you have someone who stays with you,

listens to you, understands you,

and grows with you,

that should be good enough.

We'll figure it out, okay?

Wow! The Goddess is really sacred.

Nat and Dao, if you are tuning in to our show, you can give us a call.

And those who plan to pray at the shrine of Black Hills,

please talk it out first

to avoid an unwelcomed visit from the Goddess.
