After eating together, Tharn was finally able to talk directly to his father alone.

"It's been this long and dad hasn't made it?" Tharn asked raising one eyebrow.

"Ha, you really are my son. Tharn, you are my pedestal, all my hard work will be for you too, soon I will not be alone anymore. You just need to be patient a little longer."

"And for that matter, how do you know that my current position is not my goal all along? Hmm.. Or maybe I can start involving you now?" Mr. Kirigun smiled, patting Tharn on the shoulder. Tharn is smart enough to never bring it up when emailing. Mr. Kirigun played very safe and was careful about this. There shouldn't be any gaps in evidence that could undermine his plans so far.

Tharn was in contact with his father all this time. Mr. Kirigun said that he was close friends with Mr. Kanawut, the owner of the foundation where Tharn is currently attending school, they will even meet today for a meal together. Tharn's father is happy, at least at Tharn's school where he can now monitor Tharn through his close friend. 

And it is very possible that Tharn can be close to his friend's son who goes to the same school, Gulf Kanawut. Tharn read the email from his father shortly after leaving the infirmary at the school earlier.

Mr. Kanawut asks the driver to take Tharn home but to avoid suspicion of his mother Tharn asks Gulf to drive him. 

Gulf can drive a car even though he only uses it a few times when he wants privacy to go out with bright and mild, because his mother insists that gulf doesn't need to be tired and needs a driver for school, to work gulf already has a manager, sometimes Mae even takes gulf to work.

During the road Gulf stole glances at Tharn several times, while Tharn was focused on his cell phone, occasionally looking up to give him direction the way Gulf needed to go to his house.

Actually Gulf wanted to use this opportunity to know more about Tharn.  Without realizing it, Gulf had a little hope for Tharn who asked him to take her home, hoping that the Phi Tharn that Gulf had met before was still with the current Tharn.

"Focus on the road or you'll kill us both."  Tharn said in a low voice, not looking away from his phone screen, looking for more information about Gulf Kanawut.

"Phi..." Gulf talked quietly, but didn't know what to say next. 

"Phi," he repeated.  "your mother".

"Don't discuss or ask about it, I'm not interested." Tharn stop him.

Gulf said nothing more after that. 

"You're obedient too, that's good, you're a model now? Really think about what you love and what you wanna do eh?" Tharn continued.

"I love the click of the camera when they taking pictures of me. Mom also says I'm talented in front of the camera. I'm happy to have more people supporting me." Gulf didn't stop smiling, glad that Tharn still remembered their brief encounter. A meeting that Gulf never forgets though.

Tharn couldn't stand Gulf's smile and chose to ignore it. Back on the phone screen, looking at some of the Gulf shots scattered on the internet.

"Is phi Thorn okay?" Gulf plucked up the courage, trying to bring up the subject again.

"Not bad. Stop! We're here. You can going back to your home now."

"Oh, okay."  Gulf watches Tharn enter the gate until lost into his house.
