Kinny had been friends with Veetara since their freshman year. They first met at the pharmacy building because they had to take a 'Food for Health' class together. Veetara was studying languages, while Kinny (back when she was still Anakin Skywalker) was studying engineering. Not long after, Kinny switched majors to be in the same faculty as Veetara. Veetara graduated a year earlier, making her somewhat of a senior.

Kinny wasn't sure when her parents realized she wanted to be Padmé Amidala more than Anakin. So, when she confessed to her parents that she wanted to be a woman with a busty chest like Veetara, her parents didn't seem surprised or shocked. Her dad just took a few sips of water while her mom nodded but couldn't help but complain, "We almost had Veetara as our daughter-in-law."

"Almost what, Mom!" Kinny turned to make a face to Veetara, who was laughing awkwardly.

"So, no surgery on the lower part?"

"Nope."

"But you're going to do to boobs job?"

"Yup," Kinny nodded while discussing cosmetic surgery with her best friend.

Veetara supported Kinny in everything and firmly assured her that she could be whatever she wanted to be, including changing her name to 'Kinny' after getting her boobs done.

One day, Salee sat down next to her and cautiously asked about it, probably out of curiosity and a desire to understand her. Kinny wasn't the type to be outspoken about personal matters; she was quite shy about them. She was only confident regarding other people's issues, teaching, and English. So, she told Salee to ask Veetara instead (Kinny was close enough to Salee to let her know but too shy to say it herself). She was confident that it'd be a good way to avoid the topic and ensure that Veetara would provide Salee with the correct information on how to approach someone like her and what questions were appropriate. Veetara handled it well but was a bit too straightforward, telling Salee everything about how Kinny dealt with her body and her thoughts on it.

It was as if Salee had injected Veetara with a truth serum.

At first, Kinny didn't understand the strange vibe between these two women.

Let's just say they were both nonsense.

Starting with Salee.

Salee used to be Veetara's younger brother's girlfriend, and now she was loudly proclaiming around the office, "I'm her future wife, but Khun Jae just doesn't know it yet!" after getting her fortune told by a famous fortune teller in Khlong San district and believing it wholeheartedly. Upon questioning witnesses, they said Salee had gathered a group from the office to eat at Lat Ya Road, then took a mini-bus to Khlong San Pier because they weren't full yet. That's when Salee encountered the fortune-teller who beckoned her over, probably because she looked gullible. She sat down, blinking her eyes, letting the fortune-teller read the cards for several minutes.

"Then the fortune-teller said..." Onanong, who was present at the time, cleared her throat before quoting the fortune-teller verbatim, "I see! I see that you're going to have your boss as your husband!"

Kinny choked on her morning coffee, coughing violently.

"Have the boss as a husband?!"

"Yes."

"And she believed it?"

"Of course, she did... as you can see now."

Everyone glanced at Salee, who was bothering other people's desks and told them, 'Soon enough, I'll be the boss's wife. So, you better start treating me well, P' Aof.'
