("Pin,  apologize. I'm a bit irritable. There was a little misunderstanding")
the woman said with a weaker voice. Phai also took a deep breath to
suppress his emotions.

("Okay, I don't want Pin and Bank to be misunderstood. Bank is my
brother, Ingfah is also my daughter"), Phai replied. The girl was a bit quiet.

("might be late tonight to clear out the drink stock at the store, Pin, I
told mom to lock the house. I've got a key, I'm just going in.") Phai first
told the girl.

("Yes"), the girl replied with a low tone.

("If you want something, call me and tell me, i'll buy it"), Phai said with a
weak voice because he thought that the girl would already understand.

("Pin hangs up first"), the woman said.

Phai let out a huge sigh of relief.
He could only hope that Pin understood. Phai returned to the tent and
smiled at Ingfah, who turned to look.

"Did your wife call you Phi?" Bank asked as Phai spoke. Bank always
watched Phai's expression.

"Hum, she just called and asked when I'll be back", Phai wouldn't tell the
whole story because he doesn't want Bank to feel dissatisfied.

"I thought I called you and yelled at you because you came with me. I
saw Pin's friend when we walked into the store just now," Bank said,
making Phai pause a bit.

"It's nothing. You're thinking too much," Phai replied.

Bank said nothing
more, but he was sure that Phai had fallen out with Pin. Phai immediately led
Ingfah into the bookstore with Bank following behind.

"Bank!" yelled a female voice.

Bank turned to look and saw that it was a girl
he knew well because the other person liked him, but Bank just talked and
played with her like a good-natured person. He was not interested in
wanting to flirt as a girlfriend.

"Who you are coming with?" Bank replied.

"I came with a friend, but he went to the bathroom. And who's with you,
Bank?" the girl asked.

"I came with my daughter," Bank replied bluntly.

He had never lied about
having a daughter. Some people thought that Bank said that Ingfah was her
younger sister or niece in order to easily flirt with girls. But Bank wasn't
interested in that kind of thing, because he thought that if someone was
going to be a part of his life, he should love and accept his daughter.

"Huh? Long time no see Ingfah! Where is she?" the girl asked immediately,
since she knew that to get close to Bank she had to win over her daughter.

"Bank, Ingfah is waiting for you," came the deep voice of Phai, who walked
away with an unchanging expression on his face, looking coldly at the girl.

Phai used to make fun of some women who greeted Bank, but he had never
been so irritated as he was today. He didn't realize that ever since he got married, he began to feel alienated from Bank.

"oh, and you left my daughter alone," Bank said before turning to the girl,
looking for away to get away.

"I'd like to go see my daughter first, see you later ," Bank said before
immediately walking into the bookstore.

Meanwhile, Phai looked at the girl
who was following Bank and immediately followed him.

"Can you choose, daughter?" Bank asked her daughter, who walked over to
pick out a storybook.
