Sometimes I think Tiger hears my prayers. I'm holding Khun Sam and Iplace her on the sofa in the middle of her room. Acting like a good girl, Irun out to buy migraine medicine. This is a good opportunity to getcloser to her. 

"Are you feeling better?"

I kneel beside her while Khun Sam is lying on the sofa with her handon her forehead, trying to hide her eyes from the light.

"I'll get better in a while." 

"Didn't know you had migraines." 

"And why did you know?" 

Because I'm your biggest fan. Of course, I didn't answer that outloud. But when I start to answer, I'm interrupted by her.

"Why don't you go home?" 

"Oh... Uhm. I like to work late after everyone else has gone." 

"So, you came to see me here?" She takes her hand off her forehead,revealing her hazel eyes. "Aren't you afraid of me?" 

"Why would I be afraid?" 

"Hmft, I don't know why they need to be afraid of me." 

She places her hand back on her forehead and continues to lie there insilence. As for me, I'm still on my knees next to the couch because Idon't know what to say. 

Is she falling asleep? 

It's been ten minutes... finally, she stirs. 

"Why don't you go home? How long will stay here? I cannot sleep." Shemoves her arm and sighs. "Are you going to stay here all night?""If I leave, you're going to be alone."

"And?"

"You will feel lonely."

She looks at me again with confused eyes. 

"You are weird. If I feel alone, what about it?" 

"Nothing. I'm just going to stay here and be your friend."

"It's late now. You are a girl, you should hurry up and leave." She looksat her luxurious watch."It's eight o'clock? You should leave?"

"I will stay here". 

She disagrees. "Where do you live? I'll take you."

I run to keep her seated. For a moment we're close, and she quicklypulls away. 

"Hey, why are you so worried? It's just a migraine."

"You better go home. I will accompany you." 

"No, I will stay here."

We're looking at each other like we're fighting. Then she sighs like I'mnot listening. 

"Do you know where I live?"

"You can tell me." 

Even though I'm your biggest fan, I don't know your address becauseno magazine or article had this specific information. In any case, I'lltake you home today. How could she sleep here without a blanket?

"Can you drive?" 

"No, I can't." Her countenance now looks confused. So I hasten to say.

"But we can take a taxi. Please tell me where you live."And after insisting a lot, I finally managed to take her home bytaxi. The house is huge, with 3 floors. It has a strange appearance as ifit has no one is living here.

"Do you stay here alone?" 

I look at her whole house. It's huge and luxurious just like in a soapopera palace.
