I look at Khun Sam, she is paralyzed as if many of her internal pains have been ejected from her body.
Finally the day arrived. The day she told me about her true feelings for me. For others, 'like' can represent love or obsession. For her, it's an equation and you have to solve it.
Like = Dislike.
'I like you! Can you understand that?'
So if I solve this equation, it will have another meaning...
'I hate you. Can you understand that?'
Painful tears flow from my eyes. Now, I'm not sure if I should use my hands to cover my face or wipe away my tears. When I fully understand, I lose all my dignity.
"Hmm... I understand. Hhhh."
"Mon!"
I run from the freezing room amidst the glares of the others. Khun Sam yells from afar to stop me, but I walk away without looking back.
I quit. I can't stand to stay here anymore. Khun Sam hates me.
Hmm!
[Mon, are you alright?]
I hide to cry in the parking lot while I call Kate, because I don't know who to call to vent. For me, the PP gang girls are like my close friends. I'll tell her everything about what happened to Khun Sam.
"Khun Sam hates me."
[Hmm. What happened?]
"I just gave her my resignation letter. And she said... Ughh..."
[What she said?]
"Who likes me."
Silence takes over the other end of the line. Kate doesn't say anything and leaves me to cry alone. Because she is quiet, I call her repeatedly to check that she is still on the line.
"Are you there?"
[I'm here... Just stunned... Now I'm even more confused. You just told me that you're crying because PP said she likes you, right?]
"Kate, you know very well that she is the type who always does the opposite of what she thinks. Her mind is different from ours. It's abnormal."
[Doesn't work... We need to meet, now.]
"I didn't finish my workday... But I don't care, I resigned anyway. Then I will find you. Where are you?"
When I remember that I quit, I get grumpy. I end my call with Kate, go back to the office, grab my things and leave while everyone is looking at me with pity.
As Khun Sam's friends are all rich and own their own companies, they can go out whenever they want. Kate is the one who has the most difficulty going out, because she is an actress, but she manages her schedule to find a space to see me, because she wants to know about me.
Now, we're all in the private setting of a Japanese restaurant. Of course... They always pay for me.
"I heard about it from Kate." Tee acts like she's thinking too much.
"I think Sam's equation shouldn't be used in this situation as usual."
"I agree." Kate is snapping her fingers.
"I think PP said what she was really thinking, it didn't need to be factored into the equation."
"I don't want to agree, really. I'm so jealous." Jim looks sad now.
"Even though I have a husband now, I feel it."
"Jim, stay on point."
"Okay, okay. I will..." Jim sighs after hearing this from Tee.
