PLUTO English Translation

09 (WANT)

Things didn't go exactly as planned... We gaze at the stars, forgetting the time until it's past 9:30pm.

I was going to drive back to Bangkok, but it's too late. Since we left in the afternoon, driving back tonight would make me too much of a raging bull.

"You don't have to get up early to go to work, right, Aum? Let's spend the night."

The person who didn't even want to leave her house at first casually suggests that we spend the night away from home. I agree with her because I'm in no hurry to go back. My parents don't care that much about me. So, I agree to stay at the petite one's request.

The resort where we staying is very cute. We picked this place because Metavee said that she likes the smell of frangipani. It was late by the time we got to the resort. When we had to choose a room, Metavee picked one like those rich people in a TV series.

"I want the most expensive room."

So we get to stay in the farthest room, with our own lake. We intend to go for a stroll in the morning to enjoy the view. By the way, how is there a lake in these mountains? It seems impossible geographically. The best room is full of windows. It gives the impression of a clean, open space. Metavee crosses her arms across her chest and stands still while I'm very excited. I keep saying 'Oh, ah, like a young child whose mother has locked her in a room and never been outside the house before. It's like it's the first time I get to explore the world, so I'm excited to the point of embarrassing myself.

"Is the room spacious?"

"Very spacious. It has a wide open space like in those furniture commercials."

"Modern style?"

"Is that what it's called? I guess it's modern. It looks really nice... Most are built-in furniture. The bed base is made of wood in Japanese style. And the roof is a clear window, so we can see the stars."

I continue to describe, like I'm writing a novel. Metavee just smiles slightly without saying anything. The fact that she doesn't say anything makes me look at her curiously.

"Why are you smiling?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing means there's something. Tell me why you're smiling."

"Is this your plan?"

"Huh?"

"You intend to go back late, so I will spend the night with you."

The petite woman tries to keep her face straight, but I can see that she's smiling merrily. It's the opposite for me, who didn't plan this. I'm stunned as I hurriedly wave my hand and deny the accusation so fast that I almost bite my tongue.

"No. I didn't even think of that."

"Ah-huh. I'll believe you."

"I mean it."

I firmly insist, but Metavee still looks like she doesn't believe me.

"It's okay. We rarely get to travel together. If you want to go on a date outside of the house, it's normal.... It's just too bad that I won't get to see you naked."

"What?"

I blink blankly, stunned and I immediately hug myself, like I'm Protecting myself.

"What's with seeing me naked?"

"Don't act so naive."

Metavee drops her hands and reaches out for me..

"Please guide me. I'm not familiar with the area... I'm afraid."
