00:23. April. Wednesday. Sangdet
Sangdet sat on the terrace of her apartment and could not believe that her mother had agreed to help her so easily.
- Why? Why didn't she ask anything? Maybe they are in cahoots with their father? Maybe I shouldn't have done that? Maybe this is a bug? - Sangdet's thoughts were torn by questions.
This call could change her life. He could have been the biggest mistake, but Sangdet was willing to take the risk at that moment, because she felt that she should finally get lucky. At least this time. At least once.
She picked up the phone and texted:
*Mom, if you really want to help, here is my email account number. 26541987321859 – 5.000.000 baht. And thank you, mom.*
Sangdet looked at the text and couldn't bring herself to send it. "Why am I so unsure of her? Everything was so good until grandfather died. She even managed to be a good mother."
Sangdet's thoughts took her more and more into memories.
FLASHBACK
- Mom, tell me about the princess who lived in the castle.
Little Sangdet could not lie down on the bed and tugged at Pim's sleeve.
- Naa Naa(The method of persuasion in Thai) .... - she begged.
- Okay, lie down.
Sangdet immediately jumped into Pim's arms and silently prepared to listen.
- There was a princess who lived in a big bright castle. She was very beautiful and smart. Everyone loved and respected her. However, she was very lonely. She dreamed of finding her prince...
- Why the prince? After all, it doesn't matter who. - Sangdet was indignant, - does grandfather say that the main thing is love? Sangdet interrupted her sharply
- Yes, grandfather is right. Nothing is impossible for love, - continued the mother. - One day she saw her love at a ball in a neighboring kingdom. They fell in love with each other at first sight. They danced together all night...
- And then they got married and lived happily ever after? - Sangdet asked.
- You are in a hurry, - mother smiled gently. - But, yes, they got married and lived happily ever after. They were the happiest couple in the world...
- I want to be like a princess too. - said Sangdet.
- You are already a princess, - her mother kissed her. - You are my princess. And I will always love you...
Present day.
Sangdet remembered her mother's warmth and tenderness. She seemed to hear her soft voice and see her gentle eyes. Then she was happy and calm. Having once again reached for the phone and exhaled loudly, she pressed the *send* button.
Sangdet recalled how her father became more strict and demanding. After the death of my grandfather, everything changed. He began to control every aspect of their lives, despise their mother and forbid her to work. Since childhood, he imposed his instructions on Sangdet, but the whole family began to fall apart. Father put pressure on everyone.
She did not understand why her mother did not defend herself or her, why she did not stand up to Chatura and why she did not leave her father, taking her daughter with her. Sangeet could never understand how her strong and confident mother suddenly became weak and passive. At that moment, Sangdet lost herself, her mother, and her faith in friendship. She then decided to learn everything related to the hotel business, hoping one day to escape its clutches. In the future, she didn't know how or when it would happen, but she knew she had to become a professional to have a chance. At that time, Sangdet was only 14 years old when she fully immersed herself in the world of marketing and business management. Since then, her camera has remained in a dusty box. She remembered the last time she said the word "dream" out loud .
