P'Nam: "Why are you sitting here all alone, little one?"

Nong Em: "I want to go home."

First day of school

"Water, water, this way." A voice calling my name from the top of my head was not yet out of the school gate. No need to guess, it was my close friend Fon. I followed the call of my dear friend. Stopped and sat on a marble horse under the Ratchaphruek tree.

"Come early," I teased my friend.

"No, it's the first day of school. I'm already a Mathayom 2 student. Next week, I'll wake up late again, haha." I could only purse my lips. Look up and send back We've been chatting with each other since we've just arrived and now it's time to line up.

After lining up because the teacher didn't teach on the first day That's lazy. So I secretly jumped in to buy ice cream to eat at the cooperative. When returning, we had to walk past the kindergarten children's building. My school has three departments: kindergarten, primary school, and high school. On my way back, I heard someone crying not far away.

When he walked in, he saw a girl with long hair, round eyes, puffy cheeks, sitting and crying while holding a teddy bear. So I walked in to say hello.

“Little one, why are you sitting here? Why don't you go play with your friends?" The little boy looked up at me before answering in a muffled voice.

"Nong Em wants to go home. Little Em doesn't have any friends."

After speaking, he began to open his mouth and cry again.

"Oh, don't cry. Smart people don't cry. You can just play with Brother Nam. Don't cry," Nam said as he walked over and sat next to the little man, rubbing his back as well.

After the little person calmed down, the water began to lead the little person to talk.

"Here, little one, Nam has ice cream too," Nam said as he unwrapped the ice cream he bought and shared with the little person sitting next to him. The little guy started eating ice cream. His little mouth bit down on the ice cream and when he encountered the sweetness and coolness of the ice cream he started to smile. The little person's bright smile made Nam himself dazzle.

What kind of child smiles so brightly? Nam sat and watched the little person eat ice cream, getting dirty and messy like a child would. But the water managed to wash the wood, wash your hands, and wipe your mouth. until the cheeks are clean and soft to the touch Makes the water's heart tremble.

"Little one, go back and play with your friends. I'll come see you again tomorrow," he told the little man as he walked over to where the other friends were playing."

"Piak, take your friends to play with you."

"Yes, Brother Nam. Come, let's play together."

After that day, every noon the water would always come to the smaller person. Today was another day when water came looking for a little person, but he couldn't find him. Water searched everywhere but couldn't see the little body. Nam then walked up to the kindergarten teacher to ask for her Nong Em.

"Teacher Kha, Nong Em? Aren't you coming to school?"

"Nong Aem, Nong Aem. Oh, Nong Aem moved to another place since this morning."

"What? You've moved. Where have you moved?"

“I heard news that I moved to Bangkok with my mother. By the way, is your name P'Nam?"

"Uh, yes."

"Here, Nong Em left it for you."

The teacher opened the drawer and picked up Nong Em's teddy bear and handed it to Nam."

"thank you"

Nam walked out of the kindergarten classroom like a soulless person. Is Nong Em really gone? Why are you doing this to me? Is it easy to abandon each other?........
