Grace POV

I keep on drinking and drinking. Hoping these drinks could make the painful memory goes away for good. But I know, it won't...

Flashback

"Natt, where are you running to?" she keeps on swinging around her rattan cane.

"Khun Yai.." I keep on begging.

"You dare to avoid me!" she yelled, venting out her anger.

"Khun Yai, please...don't hit me," I sobbed hard.

"You are just like your damned mother! She had an illegitimate son and she dares to get married to my son! Now, look at you! Let me tie you up so you can't go around messing with guys!" she grabs my hand and dragged me.

"Don't! Khun Yai, don't!" I tried to escape from her but failed.

"Give me your hand!" she then tied my hand with a rope that is attached to the wooden beam.

"I hate you! I hate you!" I screamed at her.

"And do you think I love you? You're only a teenager and you get yourself knocked up! Do you think I wanted you here? I took you in because your father is my son, you ungrateful brat!" she hit my feet hard.

"Stop! In that case, I will raise her!" someone stopped her.

"You want her? Is the child she's carrying is yours?" she questioned.

"Child?" P'Gulf questioned.

"YES! THIS BRAT GOT HERSELF PREGNANT!" she shouted as she hit me, marking my body without mercy before she slammed her rattan cane on the floor.

"You've said it, now no take back!" she then rushed to the cabinet, took out some clothes, and stashed it inside a bag before she slammed it in front of us.

"Make sure, even if she dies, NEVER SENT HER BACK HERE!" with that, she gets inside her room and slammed the door shut.

"Does it hurt, Natt?" he asked as he eyed the marks on my body.

"I'm used to it," I sobbed.

"You are saying your grandma hits you regularly?" he asked for more details.

"Just forget everything, Na? We will start a new life after this. From now on, I will take care of you. I promise," he pulled me into his warm embrace.

And today...exactly at this time...

"Natt, you stay here, Na? I'll go get help," he was about to leave but I grabbed his hand, stopping him.

"Just let him die, Phi. So he won't have to face this cruel world," I say what's on my mind.

"Natt, he's innocent!"

"I DON'T WANT HIM , PHI! WHAT IF OTHER PEOPLE SAY IF THEY FIND OUT THAT I GAVE BIRTH WITHOUT A HUSBAND?!" I yelled before I reached to that creature.

"DIE! DIE!" I tried to hurt him.

"Natt! Listen here, no one will know he's your son. I will take him in as my own, Na?" P'Gulf cupped my face and tried to convince me.

"Phi, one day...the truth will come out. People will know. I've tried Phi. I've tried everything I could to kill him before he was born. But he..."

"Natt, mark my word. No one will know. All they know is he is my son. I promise you!" P'Gulf insisted.
