(IND/ENG) - My Heart Insurance (END)

(ENG) Chapter Six - Back Seat

After arranging the meeting schedule with Mrs. Thongtawan, Pha and Singto headed to her residence to explain the policy illustration before signing the insurance application form. Singto reviews the policy illustrations and memorized all the procedures in his head on the way.

"You seem like memorizing exam material," said Phana jokingly while focusing on driving.

"You said you would teach me," Singto protested.

"You want to learn how to drive?" Pha diverted the conversation.

"Does your car have insurance?"

Phana glanced at him suspiciously and wondered if Singto never learns driving. 

"Of course," said Pha. "All insurance is important!"

"But insurance can't save your life in the event of an accident," Singto retorted

Phana was silent for a moment and nodded in agreement, then changed the topic, "Why do you think I chose this job?"

"Because the income is great?" Singto guessed.

Pha grinned and replied, "That's if you're already in my position, just so you know I only got three clients with a small premium for one year when I just become an agent."

Singto thought for a moment and commented, "Let me guess, Wan is the reason you're sticking around?"

Pha responded with a smile and replied, "I've lost something precious in the past because I didn't have insurance, since then I realized that insurance is very important, that's why I want everyone to have it."

Singto was silent, Pha's words seem to describe the change in his life, if only his father had insurance, then his life would not be like it is now. It never occurred to him that one day he had to get out of his comfort zone and toil for three meals a day.

When his father was alive, he didn't have to worry about money or anything, but now he can only afford to rent a small apartment and have to save money for food every day.

Unknowingly, Singto shed tears, lamenting the drastic changes in his life. Pha startled and reduces the speed of his car, trying to cheer him up, but Singto quickly turned his head away and wiped away his tears.

"Sorry, did I say something wrong?" asked Pha worried.

Singto responded by shaking his head, then forced himself to smile and said. "You're right, insurance is very important and everyone should have it," he repeated Pha's words.

"By the way, do you have insurance?" asked Pha changing the topic again.

Singto shook his head slowly saying he didn't have one, "I'll get one after I have enough savings..."

Pha thought for a while and replied, "There's no need to wait, I'll take care of it after this and pay the three months premium for you."

"What? No need!" Singto refused. "Right now I don't need insurance."

"You never know what will happen to you the next second or tomorrow, it's better to prepare an umbrella before it rains."

"If it rains, I'll borrow an umbrella from you," Singto joked.

Phana didn't reply, he glanced at the guy with a smile and stepped on the gas pedal.

Meeting with Mrs. Thongtawan ran smoothly without any problems, Singto also managed to perfectly deliver all of the material taught by Wan without the help of Phana.
