Khao watches Podd who is looking at his phone

"Pa, what's wrong?" Khao asks him. Podd looks at him and then looks at the other two people inside the room. He smiles

"Let's talk outside." He says to Khao. Khao turns to his mother who is watching their interaction just now

"Ma, I am going to talk with Pa outside, I will come back later okay." He says then he follows Podd outside. Podd asks him to sit on the bench outside of the room and takes his hand when he takes a seat beside him

"Earth took Mix to a date tonight and Mix opened up a little bit about his family to Earth. He told Earth about his parents"

Khao freezes but he still asks Podd "What did Phi Mix say?"

Podd takes a deep breath and holds his hand "Earth said it's going to be hard for you when Mix knows about your identity later. Earth also added that Mix looks like he still cannot forgive your parents and he acts like his father is already dead Khao." He says softly to Khao. Khao sobs and Podd immediately hugs him

"Babe, it's okay. We still have time and let's pray together for Mix to soften his heart and forgive your father."

"You found Mix." A voice suddenly says from beside them. Both Podd and Khao turn to the source of the voice

"Mae." Khao calls his mother who is standing beside them. Mrs. Rattanakitpaisan walks to both of them and sits beside her son

"Did you just said that you met with your brother Khao?" she asks her son while holding his hand. Khao nods and his mother immediately smiles,

"So did you told him about your father? Did he want to help us?" she asks hopefully. Khao almost burst into tears looking at his mother's face that is full of hope. He shakes his head softly

"Mae I am sorry but he doesn't know who I am. He just knew me as Podd's lover."

Mrs. Rattanakitpaisan looks confused "What do you mean he still doesn't know about you? I thought you met him."

Khao burst into tiny sobs "Mae he still cannot forgive us. He even said that his father is already dead Mae. He hates us so much." He says between the sobs. Mrs. Rattanakitpaisan's heart breaks when she sees her son cries and she hugs him tightly

"Of course he still hates us. This is my fault, please forgive me na son." She says softly while patting his back softly. Of course, this will happen, she never thought that Mix will ever forgive them, well it is her fault that Mix lost his mother and his family. She knew about all the hardships that he faced, and she cannot blame him if he never forgives her because what she did was a grave sin and she is going to burden with it until the last of her breath. Now, his husband is facing the karma for her sin, only hoping on Mix's mercy to save her husband's life and she thinks, do they deserve that mercy for what they did?

Win watches the family's interaction from far, hidden from their sight

"Win, what are you doing?" Bright suddenly taps him from behind. Win startles and quickly turns to him

"Oh, it's nothing." He says while smiling sheepishly but Bright looks at where Win looked just now and his face turns to a confused face

"Wait isn't that the kid who was in Mix's picture during his vacation with Earth?" he looks at Win. Win just bites his lips, avoiding Bright's eyes

"Win." Bright calls him sternly and Win just sighs

"Look it's not our right to meddle with his family's matters okay."

What do you mean? And isn't that woman just now, Mix's stepmother?"

Win glares at Bright "Bright, please, just leave it. We cannot do anything about it, in the end, Mix is the only one who will decide what to do. We can just support and be there for him. But for now, we need to keep this as a secret, that kid must have his own reasons for not telling the truth." Win explains.
