Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?
I won’t contact you anymore. Let’s end it here, Dad.
Wish I could say I’m okay, but…
If you’re not okay, just say so.
At least when you’re around me.
Can you stay with P' Rak for good?
It's... up to Khun Tongrak.
Not me.
Are you really not coming with me?
You’re going to be late if you don’t leave now.
Then come with me.
It’s just lunch with your mom. You got this.
It’s… been years since I last met her.
Everything will be fine.
Then you have to come with me next time.
That’s up to you.
But now, you’d better hurry or you'll be late
Off you go!
Don’t you want to think it over?
No. Hurry up, you’re going to be late.
Love Sea the Series
Chapter 10: Tongrak - Mahasamut
Mahasamut.
In the kitchen.
It went as expected, right?
Mm.
Mom’s going to deal with Dad.
She promised that he wouldn’t bother us anymore.
But if he does
she’s prepared a truckload of evidence that could send him to jail.
She got rid of all the clips too.
What clips?
My dad put security cameras in every corner of the house.
He was planning to sell the clips of me begging him
and breaking up with you to Prin.
Son of a bitch.
It’s okay, my mom’s taken care of that
including Prin.
Do I sound harsh?
Am I allowed to say it?
But I’m not nearly as harsh as my mom.
She was out for payback until my aunt promised to send Prim overseas.
That’s when she finally stopped.
Anyway.
Mom wants us to have a monthly family meal from here on out.
That’s good.
You’ll get to chat with your family more.
Mom wants to see you too.
So, next time…
come meet my family with me.
What’s the matter?
I've got something for you.
Can you close your eyes?
Can I open my eyes now?
Yes.
What’s this?
Do you remember the project I told you about?
The accessories made from recycled materials.
Yes.
This is the first one I successfully made.
You’re going to sell it?
No.
These two trinkets…
are the only ones in the world.
This one…
represents you.
And this one…
represents me.
They symbolize the story of my life.
You see this?
See the missing heart?
Yes.
That’s right.
It’s no longer with me.
Because…
it’s with you.
- I-- - Don’t say it!
Please don’t say it, Mahasamut.
No.
I want to tell you.
And I want to do it now. Right this moment.
No! I won’t hear it.
Come on. Come on.
What are you doing?
I’m going to draft the agreement.
What agreement?
The one between you and me. We’re going to sign it again.
There’s no need for an agreement between us.
Yes, there is!
There isn’t.
I’m telling you, there is.
No.
- You need to listen to me, Khun Tongrak. - No.
- You’re the one who needs to listen-- - I love you.
You…
Why did you say that?
I just wanted to tell you.
No.
You don’t get it.
Then tell me.
I want to renew the agreement.
(5,000 baht received) Is 5,000 enough?
What?
(5,000 baht received) 10k?
Is 5,000 enough?
Sorry?
How about 7,000?
Or 10k?
(20,000 baht received) - 30k? - No.
(70,000 baht received) - 100k? - Stop it. That’s enough.
(50,000 baht received) - 150k? - Stop it already, Mahasamut!
How much do I need to pay you…
to earn your love?
Why are you doing this?
I’ve never been after your money.
The only thing I’ve always wanted isn’t money.
It’s you.
Let me love you.
No.
I don’t want your love.
Don’t love me.
I won’t let anyone hurt me.
Don’t say you love me. Don’t love me.
Don’t even bother.
I don’t want your love!
I don’t want it.
Yes…
I know you don’t want it.
But I don’t want it back either.
My heart… My feelings…
I’ve never wanted them back.
I just want to tell you one last time.
I love you.
I won’t love you.

Tongrak - Mahasamut.
Guess it’s not happening.
I’m sorry...
for always pressuring you.
And…
goodbye.
Thank you.
What’s on your mind?
P’ Rak and Mut.
Hm?
If you think about it
P’ Rak and Mut’s situation is like something straight out of a novel.
Who would’ve thought that two opposite people would find each other
and fall in love?
Did you just say “love”?
Well, isn’t that true?
Mut loves P’ Rak, and P’ Rak loves him too.
I’ve never seen P’ Rak this tolerant with anyone before.
I wish it was that simple.
Sometimes we don’t know what we’ve got until it’s gone, Mook.
And convincing the guy who’s been running away his whole life to accept it
isn’t easy at all.
But Mut won’t give up.
Right?
That totally reminds me of when you hissed like a cat at Mut.
Switching sides now?
Huh? I’m not switching sides.
I’m always on P’ Rak’s side.
And when will you be by my side?
I should get the door.
Sawasdee krub.
I came to say goodbye.
I need to catch the bus this evening
and take the boat back to the island tomorrow morning.
Hang on, why is this happening all of a sudden?
What…
Please give it another thought, Mut.
What will P’ Rak do if you leave?
You’re shaping him into a better man with every passing day.
What will happen to him if you’re gone?
That’s why I came to you guys.
What do you mean?
I know that…
you know Khun Tongrak well.
But he’s lonelier than you think.
He loves having someone around.
You might need to visit him more.
If he tells you to leave…
just stay put and be quiet.
If he asks for booze…
hand him coffee.
He’ll drink it.
But if he refuses to eat…
you can just take all his coffee.
He’ll eventually eat.
Wait a minute.
This is…
Please take care of Khun Tongrak for me.
My uncle-in-law!
What’s up, little rascal?
I'm only letting this slide because it's you.
Want to order something, Mut?
I’m fine, Khun Kwan.
I just came to see Meena.
Right.
He promised to buy me sweets if I got good grades.
Didn’t he say that was for all subjects?
I only did poorly in a couple of subjects, Mommy.
But the ones you did poorly in are physics, chemistry, and biology
where you got 8 scores each, right?
But I still scored well in all the other subjects.
But you’re in the science-mathematics program.
Maybe I’m just better at math.
But didn’t I ask you if you could actually handle it if you chose this program?
Well, it’s so we can find out if I can make it through the program.
What’s wrong with 8? It’s a good number.
It’s a good number, but you only got 8 out of 30.
What’s the matter, Mut?
Oh… nothing.
I was just thinking about number 8.
You like that number just like your uncle.
8 has always been Rak’s favorite number.
He’s always going on about how he’s not interested in love
or how he doesn’t want to fall in love.
But he really used to like tales about princes slaying dragons
and living happily ever after with princesses.
He always asked our nanny to read the same stories to us over and over.
Even as an adult, he was so into love stories that he turned it into a career.
So... what does that have to do with number 8, Mommy?
To your uncle, 8 isn’t a number.
It’s the infinity symbol.
Isn’t he such a romantic that it makes sense he’s a romance novelist?
He’s got this habit of rating things.
When he really likes something
he’ll give it an 8 instead of a 10.
When your uncle was little, he’d go to toy stores and point at toys, saying
“That’s an 8, this one’s an 8, that one’s also an 8.”
He was giving your grandma a headache.
So, an 8 basically shows how much he really likes something.
It means an infinite amount of liking, right, Mommy?
That’s right, honey.
How would you rate me out of 10?
8.
Huh?
I give you an 8.
How come?
I like number 8.
What teacher grades a student based on his favorite number?
Then you get a zero.
Uncle Mut?
Uncle Mut.
Uncle Mut, are you crying?
Uncle Mut.
Are you okay?
Ai Rak, open the door.
Is this how you really want it to be?
The hell are you talking about?
Don’t just barge into my house and speak nonsense.
Mut's gone.
What do you mean?
He’s returned to the island.
This isn’t funny.
He came to say goodbye and asked Mook and me to take care of you.
You can still catch up.
Are you really just gonna let it end?
Ai Rak.
Why should I go after him?
It’s better this way.
Don’t be like this, Ai Rak.
It already hurts like hell.
So why should I add more pain with love?
Love doesn’t always equal pain.
But in my experience…
love only brings sorrow.
Oh. P’ Mut.
My dearest bro.
You’re finally back.
I spread the word all over the island.
By tomorrow, everyone will know that you’re back.
I might as well ask.
What’s wrong with your phone? I couldn't contact you at all.
All I got when I called you was a sweet voice saying
“The number you’ve dialed cannot be reached at the moment. Please try again later.”
Just like that.
My phone’s broken.
Wait. How’d you call me then?
I borrowed one…
but already gave it back.
So, you came back empty-handed.
Yeah.
Not even… a single photo.
It’s alright. There’s nothing better than being back home.
Right?
Let me take your backpack.
Come on, just give it to me.
Anyway, are you going to open the shop right away?
I’ll spread the news at the bar tonight
that our top-notch diver’s returned.
- Ai Palm. - Yes?
- Lemme ask you something. - Sure, go ahead.
Do you know…
any good tattoo artists?
Tattoo?
Tattoo artists…
You… You’re getting a tattoo?
What kind of tattoo?
How long has he been this way?
5 days since that day, P' Vie.
P’ Rak’s completely stuck on the side stories.
He just keeps typing and deleting.
I really have no idea how to tell P’ Saw.
P’ Rak, do you want to take a break?
Ai Rak.
Can you just be quiet? I’m trying to work here.
I told you I couldn’t write.
You hear me, P’ Saw? I can’t write!
You think I’m not suffering?
I want to write too, but I just can’t! What do you want me to do?!
It’s supposed to be in here. Where the hell is it?
Mook, have you seen my bracelet?
Sorry? Bracelet?
The bracelet!
Which one?
The one in the trash can.
I took out the trash.
Where’d you put it?
In the trash can out front.
Not here.
It’s not here. No.
No.
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be.
Hey!
Hey, stop!
Khun Tongrak - Mahasamut.
You must love me.
Can you not return to Bangkok?
Please stay with me.
Because you… are important to me.
Let me make it up to you.
Hold me.
Stop the truck! Please stop!
- I-- - Don’t say it!
How much do I need to pay you to earn your love?
I just want to tell you one last time.
I love you.
I’m sorry.
Mahasamut, I’m sorry.
Please come back.
I’m sorry for being a jerk to you.
Can you please come back to me?
I… I…
I’m afraid you’ll end up hating me if you love me.
I’m sorry.
Please come back to me.
Please come back.
Come back to me.
Looking for this?
Ai Vie, give it back. That’s mine.
What are you going to do with it? Throw it away again?
Please give it back to me.
No.
Not until you tell me what you plan to do next.
Ai Rak.
You really wanna know?
Well, I have no idea either.
Hearing the word “love” freaked me out.
I know how it will end.
It’s the same with my mom, my sister, and everyone around me.
What am I supposed to do?
Tell me.
Ai Vie, what am I supposed to do?
Ai Rak.
When writing a novel, have you ever feared that no one would read it?
No, I write because I want to.
Mm, that’s right.
Then don't be afraid of a loss before it actually happens...
if all you want is to love.
All this pain, sadness, and suffering…
Whether you love someone or not
you can’t escape them as long as you’re still breathing.
Why don’t you think about how loving someone could make you happy?
You’ll never know if you’ll be happy or sad
unless you break down this fucking wall.
If you don’t want to deal with loss or regrets...
you’ve just got to cherish him.
How should I do it?
Mahasamut chose to come all this way with you.
Now it’s your turn to choose.
And you know what?
Whatever you choose
I’ll always be there for you.
I just want to love.
Yeah, you just want to be loved.
And should you get hurt, I’ll comfort you.
Oh my!
Who are you, handsome guy?
You look so familiar.
Save the greeting unless you have jobs for me, Auntie. I’m broke now.
You bastard, you just got back from the city
and now you’re being haughty with me?
I can be more than just haughty.
Jeez, you little…
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold your horses.
I haven’t seen you for months. Let’s catch up.
I’m in a hurry.
Come on, let me take that for you. Come on, come on, come on, let me help.
If you wanna ask, just do it.
Well… Umm...
Where’s that handsome bloke?
Ai Palm said you followed him back home.
Where else could he be but his home?
Huh? But you left with him.
Do we need to come back together?
Yeah, what you said is right.
Last question!
I thought you hated tattoos.
Why did you get one?
To pique the curiosity of nosy folks.
Hey, did you just call me nosy?
I was just asking a few questions, you mouthy punk!
Because…
there’s nothing left to remind me of him, Auntie.
Just… one last memory.
I still don’t know what to say to him.
Hey, isn’t that Handsome Bro?
Handsome Bro.
Remember me? It’s me, Ai Palm.
P’ Mut’s been hanging out at the beach a lot lately.
He goes there every day to watch the stars.
Am I still allowed to say your name?
Mahasamut.
Khun Tongrak?
Why are you here?
Put it on for me.
Let me answer you this time.
Let me tell you.
Mahasamut?
You came here to hurt me?
What? No.
If not…
then why are you hurting me again?
If you’re here just to toy with my feelings…
you’ve succeeded.
I told you, didn’t I?
My feelings…
My heart…
I’ve never wanted them back.
But seems like…
you don’t want them either.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t be on this damn island.
Are you so eager to return it to me, Khun Tongrak?
That’s not what I meant.
Then why are you here!?
Are you here to show me…
that my feelings don’t matter...
and that you can just keep trampling on them?
Are you here to show me…
that all this time I’ve been trying to forget you…
I’m nothing but a fool!
If you don't want it that badly...
just throw it away.
Or you want me to do it?
What did you do that for?
That’s supposed to be my question.
Do I need to remind you?
You don’t want love.
You don’t want anyone.
It’s nothing more than a deal between us.
I’m sorry…
for forcing my feelings on you.
And I just want to let you know.
No matter how much you pay me…
I’m never going back.
Because my feelings for you…
can’t be bought with money.
Just go back.
There are tons of men…
who’d jump at your offer.
I’m not available.
I’m busy improving my hometown.
Like I said, I don’t want it back.
If you don’t want it…
throw it away yourself.
Don’t make me…
throw my own heart away.
Are you crying?
I’m not.
But, Ai Vie…
It hurts.
It fucking hurts.
Have you told Mut about your feelings?
I'm too scared.
I don’t know where to start.
Should I apologize first?
Or what should I do?
I’ve never loved anyone before.
Mahasamut said it was painful to see me.
So how could I tell him I love him?
You should’ve seen his face, Ai Vie.
He looked…
like…
like I was here to hurt him.
Ai Vie…
What do I do?
I don’t want him to hate me.
So, are you just gonna give up?
No.
Then try it your own way.
Even if you can’t say it to his face
there are other ways to show how you feel.
Mahasamut.
Do you need a hand?
Leave me alone.
Just one more time.
Please hear me out just this once.
I'm such a fool.
Why do I even think he’s still here?
Idiot.
What a fool.
P’ Mut.
P’ Mut krub. Oh, sorry. Hello.
Why are you here? Didn’t you ask for a day off?
Well, I did, but I got an urgent request.
Handsome Bro’s got something to give you.
But I don’t want it.
Huh? Hey, hold on.
Come on, just hear me out.
I’m not listening. Let me go!
What?
Look…
Handsome Bro’s asking for one last favor
and he won’t bother you again.
He said he just needs you to hear him out once...
and then you won't have to see him again.
(Southern dialect) And I was going to say ...
(Southern dialect) that you didn’t take all the keys.
I must be out of my mind.
Sorry!!! I didn’t have the guts to say this in person
but can you please hear me out...?
I’m sorry, Mahasamut.
I’ve been hurting you.
I’ve been selfish.
I’m just a coward who can’t even apologize to you in person.
But could someone as kind as you do me one last favor?
Could you listen to what I’m about to say?
Throughout my life...
the love I've known has always been about hurting one another...
constant pain...
and tears that never seem to dry.
My mom.
My sister.
Everyone around me.
I’m scared, Mahasamut.
And my fear has led me to ruin everything.
I’ve been running away like a madman.
Running from you, from your love...
from the feeling you taught me for the first time.
You taught me what happiness is.
I want to wake up next to you every morning.
I want us to drift off to sleep together.
I want to hear you ask…
“Are you tired?”
“Are you hungry?”
And I want to do things for you too.
Is it wrong if I want us to cry together...
be happy together...
and share laughter?
Maybe I’m asking for too much.
I’m sorry.
Sorry for loving you.
Sorry for realizing it when it was too late.
Mahasamut.
I love you.
♪ (What does true love really feel like?) ♪
♪ I truly hope you won’t reopen my old wounds. ♪
Mahasamut.
Yes, Khun Tongrak.
Mahasamut.
Yes, I’m right here.
Mahasamut.
Yes.
Mahasamut.
I love you.
I… I… I…
I… I’m sorry.
I’m sorry for saying mean things to you. Sorry for hurting you.
I’m sorry. I…
I don’t want to hear you say sorry.
Then…
what… what… what should I say?
I’m willing to do anything you want, just tell me.
I’ll do whatever you want--
Can you tell me…
how you feel about me?
Right now.
To my face.
Please tell me.
I love you.
Yes.
Mahasamut, I love you.
Yes.
I love you. I love you. I love you.
I love you so much. I love you. I love you.
Tongrak - Mahasamut.
It’s actually happening.
I like number 8.
I believe you.
I will love you…
infinitely.
Sawasdee krub.
Sawasdee.
Did you have sweet dreams?
Yes. And you?
Me too.
What did you dream?
I dreamed of you.
Gotta get up.
Not yet. 5 more minutes please.
Mahasamut.
Tongrak - Mahasamut.
Yes.
“Must love Mahasamut.”
I already do.
When I followed you back...
I set a deadline for myself from the start.
I couldn't leave this island.
What about later on?
I can stay with you during the low seasons.
So, you’ll stay here for 6 months and live with me for another 6?
I won’t have it.
I know I shouldn’t have brought it up...
especially after we’ve worked things out.
But I can’t leave this place.
This island is my life.
It’s my home.
Many lives depend on me.
I’m not telling you to abandon everything.
I’ve got an idea. I’ll come live with you.
I’m a writer. I can work from just about anywhere.
I’ll be wherever my lover is.
I was going to tease you for calling me your lover.
But there aren’t… any aesthetic clinics here.
You can stay with me in Bangkok for 6 months.
Alright then.
So, where will you be staying?
At your place.
Sure you can live there?
I'm sure.
Really?
Mm.
I can stay with you at the resort.
But I can really live with you.
It’s alright, we can talk about it later.
Time to fuel you up with coffee.
Come on, let’s get breakfast.
Mahasamut Diving and Traveling
Mahasamut! Mahasamut! Mahasamut!
Hold on.
Relax, what’s wrong?
I’m excited.
I can tell.
So, what’s the matter?
And what’s this?
Khun Tongrak.
What’s with the face?
Well…
I was thinking that I should’ve told you first…
but I wanted to keep it a surprise.
Are you angry?
Are you really angry?
I’m sorry, I just wanted to surprise you.
I want you to feel assured that I’ll be staying with you.
I really went overboard this time, didn’t I?
Why did you buy a house?
Because I want to live with you.
Without discussing it with me?
I wanted to surprise you.
What else?
That’s all.
Do you really want me to be angry?
You’re not?
That’s why I asked for your reasons.
You want to live with me.
So, how can I get angry…
when you’re thinking about our future?
Or do you want me to?
No.
Next time, you need to tell me about important matters like this.
Because we’re lovers.
Right?
C’mere.
You know what?
Home, to me…
isn’t a place.
It’s you.
