"Itt, put your clothes in your bag," Day's voice rang out as Itt was sitting in the living room, watching TV. He immediately turned to look at Day.

"Where are we going?" Itt asked curiously.

"We're going to the salon tomorrow," Day replied.

"Why are we going there?" Itt asked. Day turned to look at Itt.

"You ask too many questions... What holiday is coming up? Aren't you normally enthusiastic about holidays and festivals?" Day said back in a calm voice.

"Are we going to celebrate Songkran there?" Itt asked. Day nodded, yes.

"Why are you making that face? Do you want to go or not?" Day asked softly, seeing Itt's hesitant expression.

"Well, I want to celebrate it here in Bangkok. I want to go to the Songkran Silom Festival," Itt replied softly because he celebrates it there every year, with his friends. Day stared blankly at Itt.

"No," Day replied, and Itt immediately pouted upon hearing this.

"I want to celebrate in Bangkok," Itt insisted on staying in Bangkok. Day stared blankly at Itt.

"If you want to go back to the salon, you can go alone," Itt said selfishly because he thought Day would give in to him anyway.

"Okay," Day replied in a flat tone, causing Itt to smile widely.

"I will go back alone. You can stay here with your friends and celebrate with them," Day said before walking into the bedroom. This made Itt's smile fall immediately. He quickly followed Day into the bedroom. He saw Day pulling out some of his clothes and pulling them into his bag.

"Day, are you really going there alone?" Itt asked, just to be sure, while wondering if Day was just trying to tease him or not.

"Umm... You should get dressed. I will take you to your parents' house so that I can pour water on the statues with you," Day replied calmly.

"What... is that today?" Itt asked Day when he saw that today was April 12th.

"No... I'm taking you now because I will not be here. I'll be back on the 18th, so I'm going to pour water on the statue today," Day replied, making Itt's eyes widen immediately.

"You're going to be at the salon for six days?" Itt asked, stunned.

"Hmm," Day answered him shortly. The tall figure walked over to pack the rest of his things.

"Go get dressed," Day said in a stern tone. Itt pulled some clothes out of the closet to change. Itt was hesitating now because he doesn't know whether to go with Day to the salon or celebrate here in Bangkok.

...

"Thank you, Day and Itt. I wish you both happiness and prosperity. Be healthy. Don't get hurt. Don't get sick," Itt's mother gave her blessings after Day and Itt came to pour water on the statues. They brought some garland too, to show their respect at Itt's parents' house.

"Thank you, Papa and Mom," Day and Itt said in unison while paying their respects to Itt's parents. Itt glanced over at Day, who hadn't said anything to him since leaving the condo.

"So, where are you going celebrate Songkram this year?" Itt's father asked.

"I'll go back to my salon," Day said because the shop that Itt's father ran was closed at the same time as Day's hair salon.

"Go celebrate. Play in the water. Have fun, you two. Are you going to behave and listen to Day, Itt?" Itt's mother said.

"Itt doesn't want to go with me. I'm going back alone," Day said calmly without looking at Itt. His parents immediately turned to look at their son.
