"Do you think this is Chiang Mai?" Singh immediately asked back when Buk said he wanted to buy strawberries.

"Then, are strawberries forced to be sold only in Chiang Mai?" Buk argued back indifferently.

"Okay, let's drive around and find a fruit shop for you first," Singh said reluctantly. Buk didn't say anything more as Sing drove around the market to find a shop that sells strawberries.

"I think we have to go buy it from the department store. This is not a strawberry season. There wouldn't be any in the market for sale," Singh complained because he had already driven around many shops looking for strawberries but couldn't find any.

"In the department store, it's so expensive," Buk complained back some time. That's why he always bought it from the general market.

"Well, the strawberries at the department store are much bigger and sweeter than what you buy and eat every day," Singh said back.

"I don't care if it's big or small, very sweet or less sweet. Let it be a strawberry and I can eat it all," Buk stated because he didn't really care for anything. If it's a strawberry, he can eat all species.

"Serious question, why do you like eating strawberries so much?" Singh asked curiously.

"When my mother had me, she only ate strawberries as she was allergic to other fruits. Then I was born so I like to eat it too," Buk replied in a calm voice which Singh couldn't tell if he had actually answered or just made fun of him in irony.

"OK, let's buy it at the department store. You can't buy them outside," Singh said because as far as he looked, he couldn't find any fruit shop with strawberries.

"I said it's expensive in the department store," Buk argued back again. Singh let out a big sigh at Buk's stubbornness.

"Oh, I'll pay for it. okay? Consider that I compensated for dragging you out early in the morning," Singh said to cut the script. Otherwise, they probably would continue to sit and argue till God knows how long.

"Then let's go," came the instant reply. Singh turned to look at Buk with raised eyebrows.

"Won't you think about it first? Just said 'yes' immediately," Singha asked back with a light chuckle.

"You offered it yourself. I didn't ask for it," replied Buk. Now he tried to speak casually with Singh. However, in the back of his mind, he still felt a little awkward.

"OK, let's stop by Makro. There

should be selling a lot. But I want to collect the debt first," Singh said before driving his car to the debtor's parents' house which was quite far into the village. But when he reached the debtor's parents house, they said that their

son went to sleep at a friend's house and showed him the way without knowing that Singh had come to collect the debt

Thud!!!!

Buk was startled slightly when Singh closed the car door with a loud bang along with coming up to sit with a cloudy face.

"Isn't he there?" Buk asked back and Singh nodded in acceptance.

"I'll take you to Makro first. It's on our way," Singh replied and drove the car. They arrived after a while. The two got out of the car together.

"Are you going to pay?" Buk asked again, just to make sure. Singh nodded silently.

"If you deny it, you're a dog," Buk repeated, before walking straight to the fruit selling zone immediately. Although he can't go rampant right then Buk still wants to find some trouble to repay Singh. Even if it's a little, it's still good.
