-Coming back from Samba Sea-
Ann: Here’s my house..
Ken: wait...
Ann: What?
Ken: Don’t you have a car?
Ann: I did, but it broke down..
Ken: …Well.. Okay Bye..
Ann went into her house, where her Aunties wasn’t there, she sighed, “Lonely night today....”
------
Ken was still driving till he went and saw the newspaper everyone was reading. He was angry again at what Kanya did, he looked at the backseat and took out the newspaper, the guy looked familiar.
Ken: Wait!
he remember seeing this guy with Ann.He turned his car around and headed to Ann’s house again.
----------
Ann changed into her nightgown and went downstairs to get a cup of milk. *Knock Knock*
Ann: ......-opens door- Ken?
Ken: Let me come in
Ann: What? No..
Ken: I need to talk to you -shows newspaper-
Ann: What about it?
Ken got tired of her questioning and walked right in.
Ken: Shut the door. -sits on the couch-
Ann: Ok..-sits on other couch-
Ken: You know him?
Ann: Why?
Ken: Just answer
Ann: Yes -Drinks milk-
Ken: he’s dating my sister.
Ann spit out her milk and choked.
Ann: Sister?! You have a SISTER?!
Ken: - wipes of the milk from his face- Is it that surprising?!
Ann: It can’t be your sister!
Ken: Kanya …. Theeradeth.. I think I would know how my sister look like
Ann: Wait..., my friend, dating, YOUR sister?!
Ken: yes, get it in your head!..............Wait... friend?
Ann: Yes, I known him for 8 years.

Ann: Yea.. You have a problem with it?
Ken: It seems dangerous.
Ann: I survived 4 years here
Ken: But you weren’t alone
Ann: My Aunt survived and she’s way older than me
Ken: Well you never know whats going to happen
Ken walked to dining table and saw Ann’s picture with Weet. That made Ann realized her Aunts pictures, she ran around the house and face them down carefully.
Ann: Please leave my house.
Ken: Alright I’ have to go anyways
She walked him to the door and he smiled “ Sleep Tight” she looked at him weirdly “Go.. Go”
She closed the door and locked it. She took a look at the newspaper again and threw it away.
-------------------
Ken drove to Kanya’s house and knocked on her door
Kanya:-opens- What?
Ken: I need to talk to you
Kanya: Why?
Ken: (Walks in) I just do!
Kanya:Ken,stop this is my life.
Ken: I don’t care, but what i need is for you to respect my mom, she took care of you since your mom passed away.
Kanya: I never wanted her to take care of me
Ken: If she didn’t you wouldn’t have today
Kanya: What I have today is all my work and what you have today is all my work too. What did she ever do?
Ken: ….she fed you, gave you a roof to live under, and you still don’t appreciate it?
Kanya: Remember that the oldest always know best.
Ken: No, they don’t....... The oldest sometimes needs to be taught from the younger one.
Kanya: …(tears fall) Leave! just leave! Yes.. You do know best.. Alright then leave.
Ken: I will, I don’t want to care about someone who never appreciates anything. (Walks Out)
OUTSIDE
Ken: One day,you’ll know.
-----------------
Ann: ( Looking at the calender) 9 more days and its my birthday.... Auntie them are gone too...-sigh-
Ann went and sat down on her bed, she took the picture of her with her parents, and looked at it, missing the old days.
Ann: I wish we can have the laughter like the same old days
------------------
Ann woke up to the sound of a crowd screaming, she scratched her head and was very annoyed, she regret leaving her window opened.”what the heck?!” she moved her curtains and looked down, of course she was right, there was a crowd, a whole bunch of girls, but what shocked her was......
Ken: (With a Bullhorn) Hey, My LOVE! Wake up Sleepy Head!!
People:I’m so jealous of her...OMG OMG OMG
Ann’s jaw dropped, she quickly closed her curtains.”Ken!” She quickly got ready and walked outside and faked her smile,, everyone moved back, Ken grinned “C’mon my love lets go” he opened the door for Ann and she got in. Ken smiled to his fans and excused himself.
DRIVING
Ken: Did you like my surprise?
Ann: You’re so annoying!
Ken: So you don’t like it?
Ann: -Turns to Ken- Stupid!
Her face was flushing red, he thought it was cute though, he put on his sunglasses and smiled. When they got to the company, Ann quickly ran in.
Ken: Why are you in a rush to work.
Ann: I’m just in a rush to have you outta my face, that’s all.
Ken: -Smiles- Lets go have lunch later.
Ann: Why would I go with you, if i don’t want to see you?
Ken: Why do you have to always be so crabby in the morning?
Ann: Why I don’t know, maybe because you always haunt my dreams!
Ken: Really? ‘Cause in my dreams, we always fall for each other. (Makes a Heart)
Ann: Nonsense -walks in elevator-
Ken: -follows- When we go out in public, we have to hold hands too.... and cuddle...(One eyebrow up)
Ann: Its hot in Bangkok if you think i’m going to cuddle and hold hands with you
She grabbed Ken’s collar, but then Ken moved her arms, turned her around and hugged her tightly, he laughed and joked “This is how closed we were in my dream.” The elevator door opened and AJ was standing right outside, Ann tugged away as fast as she can
Aj: Oh, Lawan was looking for you two.
Ken: We would’ve come earlier if Ann, woken up earlier.
Aj was surprised and confuse, but Ann was still mad at Ken
Aj: You two were together?
Ann: No- No
Ken: Yes, What’s so weird about that.
Aj: Well nothing, then Ann I’d like to take you out for lunch this afternoon.
Lawan walks out and looks for them, “You guys, come in.” All of them dropped their conversation and went in unhappily. Everyone sat down, “Ann, you’re going to be Ken’s maid, which means we won’t see you here at the company anymore.”
Ann: Why all of the sudden?
Lawan: Well Ken told me your Aunt is away.
Ann: Only for a week......or so....
Lawan: It’s not just your job to take care of Ken, we have to make sure nothing bad happens to you too.
Ken: You signed the contract, you follow our rules.
Lawan: Its a great way to earn money and this will make both of your relationship look more real. You don’t have to do it for five months, just ‘till you aunt returns.
Ann: Well, since its only till then and if its required-
Aj: Mae, if you don’t want anything bad happening,then its better off not letting her stay with Ken.
Lawan: If they are going to fake a relationship, it has to look real.
Aj: but-
Ken turned to Aj and smirked “I guess I win this round.”

Lunch Time
Ann finally got a call from her aunt
Sarah: Sorry Ann, that I couldn’t call it’s just that something big came up
Ann: what is it?
Sarah: Nothing really?
Ann: When are you coming back?
Sarah: Not sure... I’ll let you know when I come back though.
Ann: Well, I won’t be at home...
Sarah: What do you mean?
Ann: I’m going to be my boss’s maid ‘till you return.
Sarah: Kavi?
Ann:..Yea I need the extra money to pay bills too..
Sarah: You should spend more time with him, and get to know him better.... You told me you hated him right?
Ann: Yea..I don’t want to get to know him better...I’m only doing this because he really wanted to get out of a scandal.
Sarah: Honey.. I’ll call you back later. -hangs up-
Ann: Ok I love you.... hello? -hangs up-
Aj:Ann!
Ann:-turns around-
Aj: Will you go to lunch with me.?
Ann: I’ don’t feel good. Lets go after work..
Aj: Oh, then, we can go after work.
Ann: I’m going to head up then.
Aj: Do you have the key to Ken’s room?
Ann: I don’t think its locked, where’d he go
Aj: I saw him leave 10 minutes ago.
Ann: -looks at the counter- Where’s the lady that works over there?
Aj:I thought she was here too..
Ann: ...They probably went somewhere together...
Aj: What? her.. he never goes out with the same girl twice though.
Ann:...I change my mind, lets go out to somewhere and have a talk..
Aj: I know just the perfect place.
Aj took Ann to a park, the sun was shining out, the grass was very green, and in the center of the park was a fountain, the went and took a seat there.
Aj: Today is very beautiful
Ann: Indeed, Can you tell me why else Ken is like this?
Aj: Way back when Ken’s mom was still with him, Ken wasn’t arrogant, or a player, he never dis respect any women till now. He thought every women was the same.
Ann: -playing along- What’s his mom’s name?
Aj: ..Susan..My Aunt Susan
Ann: Does he want to see his mom?
Aj: I can tell he does but he doesn’t want to admit it. He never admit it when he misses his mom, but when people who knows his past, they know he does, I remember how happy he use to be.
Ann remember when they were at the sea, he admitted he miss his mom, but why to her?
Ann: What about his sister?
Aj:...Kanya? How’d you know about her?
Ann: She’s... Kinda.. Dating my friend
Aj: Woah.. Really? Oh.. Well... Kanya is Ken’s half sister. But they love each other a lot.
Ann: He seems protective over her, is she younger?
Aj: She’s older, Ken’s protective because he’s scared she might leave him for your friend.Oh.. By the way what’s his name?
Ann:He works at your studio, security guard, Weet.
Aj: I don’t recall
They kept talking then left back to the company
AT THE COMPANY
Aj: Are you still going with me this evening.
Ann: Sure
Ken: Ann, where’d you go?
Ann: -turns around- Why does it matter, where’d you go.
Ken: I asked you first.
Aj: We went out
Ken: You should stop taking her out in public, everyone knows she’s dating me.
Ann: If you don’t recall this was just to stop the scandals,
Ken:-Breathes Heavily- Go upstairs.
Ann: huh?
Ken: Go Upstairs!
Ann went upstairs fussing. When Ann got up to the tenth floor, she accidentally ran into Boon-Mee, the counter lady.
Boon-Mee: It’s you.
Ann: And it’s you!
Boon-Mee:-Stuttering-Why...... are.... you coming up here.?
Ann: Why are you acting like you did something wrong... Unless....
Boon-Mee: Stupid,.... Ken....just didn’t want anyone to know … I was with him up here.
Ann:.....If you’re done trying to brag then move away...
Boon-Mee stood in the way not letting Ann pass, Ann was pushed her away and walked to Ken’s room...”Ahh....Retard” Boon-Mee squeaked.
Ann: How is he going to be mad at me when he’s making love up here? Pervert..-opens door-
----------
Aj: Stop being so tough on her.
Ken: I’m not
Aj: Why can’t you be the old you!
Ken: I’m never going to be the old Ken, so just deal with it.
Aj: -Shakes Head- Why do this just cause your mom left you. -walks away-
Ken stood there,thinking, he left the company and drove off. Ann stayed in Ken’s room, he wasn’t coming anytime soon, she walked around and saw a photo album on his desk, she picked it up, and opened it. On the front page wrote
“Theeradeth Family” she read the description out loud “The best thing about a photo is that it’ll never change, even if the people in it do. -Anonymous” She flipped through it, Ken was always smiling, she saw her Aunt’s picture with Ken, she started feeling Ken, that’s how she is, she knows how it is to loose a mother, tears started filling her eyes. On the back page wrote
“ I pray for these good times to return” another one was “All the love in my heart, left with my Mother.” If only her Aunt saw this, she would return to Ken and change him. She flipped through it again, “What are you doing!?” She turned around it was Ken who came in, he walked to her and snatched away the book.
Ken: What are you doing, invading my privacy!?
Ann: I’m sorry, it was just there
Ken: Never touch my stuff anymore!
Ann: Hey! I said I was sorry!
When Ann was apologizing, the flowers on the couch caught her eyes. She walked over and picked up the flowers.
Ann: Who are these flowers for?-smelling it-
Ken: Give it back!
Ann:-Reads the card- Here Ann, These are for you, Thanks...Xoxo Ken.... for me?
Ken: Not anymore, you don’t deserve it
Ann: The xoxo is so corny, and thanks for what?
Ken: Well for.....for...helping me with the scandal..
Ann: Why does your mood change so quickly?
Ken: Whatever, anyways after you’re done working, wait for me the entrance
Ann: Why?
Ken: Remember this is your last day
Ann: Yes, I’m not stupid, probably heard you about a billion times.
“Aye! I said give it back” Ann laughed and ran around “No, you said it was for me!” He caught Ann and fell on to Ann on the couch. Again his stare caught her. They stared at each other for awhile, then he leaned closer. Ann slowly closed her eyes, but then remembered what Boon-Mee told her
Boon-Mee: Stupid,.... Ken....just didn’t want anyone to know … I was with him up here.
She opened her eyes and pushed Ken away. “Stupid what are you doing?” She yelled, She grabbed her purse and walked out, leaving the flowers behind.
Outside the Room
“I can’t fall for a player...” She whispered to herself and went into the elevator.

Loom: There’s gonna be tons of hot girls here

Ann: Yea he told me to wait for him here.
Aj: Usually he’s never late to leave this place though. -turns to the counter-
