On the day of dawn

(Songkran Series)

Chapter 1 on the day I don't understand

“Oh, Mom, that's annoying. I already told you, I'm not a child. Can you stop treating me like I'm a child? That's it for now, mom. I'm so tired." She finished dialing the phone and immediately hung up without even being able to listen to her mother. After working all day tiringly

He didn't want to listen to his mother call him and complain about how he liked to hang out with friends and drive back or anything else. that my mother keeps complaining about every day

Kanchai Kaewklao, a young engineer who is determined to find success in his life. He therefore decided to leave his hometown in Chumphon immediately after returning to work back home for only two months. And this year is considered to be a golden year for the worker after he has worked hard and there is news that at the end of this year he will be promoted to supervisor.

Having said that, since coming to work in Bangkok for almost three years, he has never had time to go back and visit home. Most of the time it was his mother who called him often. Sometimes he talks with nostalgia. But sometimes he works hard. He often sounded dissatisfied with his mother.

This evening was like almost every day, with the young engineer hanging out with friends and workers after work. Since that day his mother called last week, she hasn't called him again. And he didn't contact me back either.

Ring, ring, ring...

"Hey, I'll be right back," Karn told his friends. in a social group Then he got up and walked out of the drinking circle to answer the phone.

"What's up, Mom?" Krang whispered on the phone when he saw the name that appeared on the phone screen.

“How are you, son?” Mother Nom's voice asked her only son with concern.

“I'm fine. And how are mom and dad?”

“Mom and Dad are fine as always. Is your child tired from working? Children, don't hang out with your friends until late at night. Mom and Dad are over here and they're worried about you."

“Yes, Mom, do you have anything else?” The young man who started wanting to hang up the phone as soon as his mother pretended to talk about the same thing. Again, it's really boring.

“Don't come home so late, child. Hang out with friends but drive home carefully. Or I'll just take a taxi back. Father and mother..."

“Mom, if you call and talk about the same old things. That's all. I'm tired of listening to this.” He sighed and sounded annoyed.

“Wait, son, wait,” Mother Nom hurriedly called to her son.

“Will you come home for Songkran this year?” If he could see now, he would know that his mother was smiling with hope when she asked.

“I don't know yet. But it probably won't go back to the way it was before,” Karn replied without thinking. But the mother's side now suddenly stopped smiling, as if the dream she had thought of had suddenly disappeared as well.

“Yes, stay there and take good care of yourself. Daughter, I'm worried. If you have free time, come back and see Mom and Dad.” Mother Nom gripped the phone tightly. Before the sound of the phone on the other end cut off the call.

“Don't think too much, Grandma Nom. You know that your child is busy. Leave it and I'll take you up to find him." Father Kob's voice comforted his mother. When he saw Mae Nom looking sad

“Really, Dad?” Grandma Nom's voice was very happy.

“Oh, then why would I lie to you, Grandma Nom?” Father Kob laughed happily at his wife's happy expression.

Chapter 2: Unreachable concern

“Hey Aikorn, tomorrow is Songkran holiday. Are you going home?” Chokchai's voice, the foreman, asked.

“I probably won't be able to go back. Anyway, I've been off work for five days. I'd like to stop and stay in a comfortable room. Let's have some happiness. So, are you going home?”

“No, I just came back from home. So, are you going to drink with me at the same place this evening?”

"What about I-Kong Idol? Is he coming back? Every time he wants to party, the whole team has to come."

"I'll talk to him myself," Chokchai volunteered to go find his other two friends.

"Okay, see you this evening." Kan hurried back to his room to take care of himself, who had been sticky all day before going to meet his three friends as had been arranged. And as soon as we reached the room, there was a voice calling as usual.

Ring, ring, ring...

“Yes, mother, you really won't come home this Songkran?” the mother's voice still asked with hope.

“My mother already told me that I would not return. My mother would ask me why I was bothering her so much. I'm tired, Mom."

“But mother …”

"Mom, this is just annoying." The mother immediately cut off the phone. Then he took a shower and washed himself.

“What else is wrong, Grandma Nom? I called my son again. That's why you made a face like this." Father couldn't resist teasing his wife. Every time I call my child, he always sits with this sad face.

“Well, I miss it, Dad.”

“Should we go and find him? What kind of way should we go? Go casually, whatever the teenagers say. It's like you don't have to tell him.”

Mother Nom heard this and couldn't stop smiling immediately. Finally getting to meet my beloved son.

“How long until we get there, Aikorn? The idol will return,” Chokchai greeted those who had just joined the group immediately.

“Where are you hurrying to go, Idol? It's not late yet." He quickly asked his friend. Then he sat down next to him. Kong, another friend in the group

“Tomorrow I will go home to Chiang Rai. And I have to drive since morning again. Are you going to let me get drunk and drive you home?”

“Are you in a hurry to go back to breastfeeding, Idol?” Kong immediately teased his friend.

“Your father's house. I haven't been home for a long time. And another thing, this year I feel like my father and mother have aged a lot. I want to go back and see you guys. Aren't you guys going home?"

“No, I just came back,” said Chokchai, who had recently taken a leave of absence from work to see his sick mother in Chaiyaphum.

“What about the two of you?” Dol asked Kong and the couple who were still silent.

"No, I'm already grown up. Besides, there are two of them together. Why should I be worried? I'm more worried if I'm alone."

“Prosper, you Aikong. And what about you?” Don turned to ask Karn, who was still keeping a calm face.

“I don't know yet. I feel tired. I'd rather stay in the room and relax. Just after Songkran, work has stopped. I have to work hard to make mushrooms. You know that when a job like ours stops, you have to keep it like this. Not stopping is even less tiring.”

“You're already working too hard. By the end of this year, you'll already be number one. Don't stress it out too much.”

"Oh, come home safely," Korn said to Dol before Dol said goodbye to his friend and went back.

“Come on, let's join together,” Kong said, inviting his friends to clink glasses.

Today I came back to my room earlier than usual. He lay down and thought about what Dol had said, 'It's true that Mom and Dad are getting older every day. But he was the one who hadn't come home for a long time. I don't know what Mom and Dad will be like. In addition, when my mother called in the evening, I spoke ill of her again. He's busy at work.

When his mother called, they talked very little. Plus, sometimes he yells at his mother. I even hung up on my mom. Or should he come home tomorrow...' Karn thought in circles until he fell asleep.

Chapter 3 Tomorrow doesn't exist.

The woman was fast asleep in bed even though it was late in the day. This would be the first day in three years that he would wake up late like everyone else, but suddenly a ringing sound from his phone made the young engineer have to reach for his beloved cell phone to see who was calling. When the name that appeared on the screen said 'Mother'

The young man immediately turned off the sound and buried his face in the pillow. Not long after leaving, the phone rang again, so the young man hurriedly grabbed it and looked at it. The same name still appeared on the phone screen, which made the young man who had slept up late on the first day very annoyed. So he immediately answered the phone in anger.

“Mom, what's going on?

“Hello, Mr. Korn, right?” The young man who was sleepy picked up the phone that was holding his ear and looked at it again. The same name as 'Mom' still appeared, so he didn't hesitate to immediately ask on the other end of the line.

"Who are you"

“I'm calling from the hospital. I mean, you have to take good care of yourself.” The young man on the other end of the line was now clutching the phone tightly with his heart pounding. He admitted deep in his heart that he was afraid.

“Now your parents have died in an accident. Right now the hospital is having relatives here come pick up the body...”

The young man who initially held the phone tightly suddenly The phone in his hand fell to the ground along with clear water. that instantly brightens both eyes He immediately picked up the car keys and drove down to his hometown.

The young man who drove down quickly five hours later parked his car under a tamarind tree in the temple yard next to the house he remembered from childhood. Him and his friends They come to run and play together regularly. He then immediately rushed to the temple pavilion. The sight of him now almost made his knees buckle.

Father and mother, sleeping with pale skin, side by side. There was only cotton to cover the nose, ears, and mouth. He walked closer. To call you both again At most, you should probably just fall asleep. Right now he couldn't put into words how he felt. He only knows about clear water. flowing from both eyes

If he's going to tell his parents now, it's too late, right? He looked at the two of you and slowly He reached out both trembling hands and gently grabbed the two of them's feet.

If his mother saw him now, she would run over and hug him like she did three years ago when he came home after graduation. You will probably shed tears of joy. As for Dad, he probably ran over and patted me on the shoulder and smiled as usual. But today, the two of you are no longer here for this child to make amends for what he has done.

The young man wept shamelessly. Even though he knew that the two of you wouldn't be able to come back again.

Chapter 4 Let's go home.

“Dammit!”

Creak ... croak ....

The young man who was sadly hugging his father and mother's feet was startled by the exclamations and screeching brakes that came from behind. until you have to look back

“Hey,” the young man exclaimed as he opened his eyes. and took a big breath Before looking around and found that he was sleeping in his own room He inhaled and suddenly clear water flowed down from his eyes.

“Dammit, what crazy dream was this?” The young man hurriedly got up and walked to the bathroom to wash his face and eyes. Hurry and change clothes. and put the clothes in the bag to drive home immediately

The car continued to drive south. happily He felt that today was a brighter day than every other day. When he realized that his mother must be very happy. To see him come home like this

The young man drove home with a heavy heart, smiling all the way. He had already thought of it. When he saw his father and mother, he would hug them to make them forget. And then you must apologize to your mother for having offended and been so rude to you.

The young man immediately drove his car to a stop in front of a two-story house that looked airy amidst large trees and hurriedly got out of the car. But it was surprising that in addition to not seeing his father and mother come out to him like he thought, The whole house came home looking like no one was there because the front door was already locked. The young man tried to walk around.

At home, in case you saw neighbors around here coming to pick tamarind leaves behind the house like usual, but didn't see anyone. Until I saw villagers walking past the house. He called out loudly but no one heard him as everyone walked by. Until a kindergartener child walked by, he hurriedly called out and ran towards the group of children. The children turned to look, so he asked the children.

Do you know where Grandma Nom and Grandpa Kob went? which is within a small village Grandma Nom and Ta Kob were very well respected here, so it was not difficult to ask, but the children shook their heads. A young man walked into the house with his head down. And I realized that calling would be easiest. So I picked up the phone and called both of them, but always logged into the voicemail system.

The young man was at a loss to find the two of them. Suddenly, he remembered his dream from last night and smelled the scent of incense sticks floating in the air. So he followed the scent of the incense sticks through the vegetable garden behind the house. and saw a large tamarind tree along the temple fence that was right next to the house The young man made a move to continue walking. The monk saw this and called first.

“Yom, is that Yom Karn?” the Reverend Father's voice greeted.

“Yes, Reverend Father.” The monk turned to Reverend Father. Kneel on the ground and raise your hands in worship.

“What are you doing when you come back?” The monk smiled kindly at the young man sitting on his knees.

“I came back to see my father and mother. But I haven't seen any of you.”

“Let's go back. Now you guys will go find Yom yourself. Don't have anything on your mind again. Believe me, there is no parent who doesn't forgive their own child.”

“Did Mom and Dad go to Bangkok, Luangta?” the young man asked without any doubt.

Luangta didn't answer, just nodded and smiled and walked into the temple.

Kan smiled happily knowing that his father and mother had gone to Bangkok to see him. So he immediately walked back to the car parked in front of his house and hurried back up to Bangkok again with a heart full of hope.

Chapter 5 Finally met.

The young man who returned from Chumphon for three days has now entered his fourth day. But he still hasn't met his father and mother. He feels annoyed that he hasn't seen his own mother and father come to see him. Anyway, Father said that Mom and Dad are here. Since that day, he hasn't called his father and mother again. There was no way left to contact the two of you.

The more he thought about it, the more agitated the young man became. The young man walked around the room, using his brain to think of a solution.

“Yes, report it! I have to report the matter.” The young man who was agitated thought about it so he was about to head towards the door when suddenly there was the sound of a key being turned inside the room. He was shocked because besides him and the entity below, no one had a key to his room. When the door opened, it was Mom and Dad who walked in and smiled at me.

The young man immediately ran in to hug his mother. But it turned out that he ran past you all to the wall on the other side of the room. Until he heard the words his father said, the young man's eyes widened.

"You are at peace now. Mother Nom, don't be a noose to tie me up again." Father Kob pulled Mother Nom, who was in tears, into a hug.

The young man unconsciously had tears streaming down his cheeks. He saw a picture of himself waking up from that dream when the sun had not even risen yet. He was driving along the Asian Line, heading south, where it was dark and the road was being repaired so he had to take the shared road. He kept driving until suddenly a motorcycle drove in the opposite direction and he had to swerve to avoid it.

Before he cursed the motorcycle, 'You idiot!' Then suddenly a truck came running at high speed along the normal lane of the road, turning on its high beams at him who was driving out of the lane until the young man suddenly swerved the steering wheel. Causing the car to overturn and spin, throwing it and crashing hard into a large tree on the side of the road.

A young man who was stuck inside the car was covered in blood. His insides were too hurt to say anything without blood spurting out. Before he slowly closed his eyes The only thing he thought about was 'Mom and Dad'. He didn't even have a chance to apologize to Mom and Dad. He just wanted to apologize to you one more time. Even though I don't know whether you will forgive him or not.

The young man who had just realized that he was no longer in this world collapsed slowly. Tears flowing down my face He looked at the sad faces of his father and mother. Even on the last day that he couldn't live in this world anymore. He still made them suffer. He slowly crawled in front of his father and mother, slowly bowing down at their feet.

Father Kob and Mother Nom standing in the room suddenly got goosebumps. There was a cool breeze blowing. Even inside the room, the door and glass are completely closed.

“Go well, child. Father and mother forgive you. Mom and Dad want you to know that Mom and Dad are never angry with you and only care about you. From today, you can go well and be happy. One day we will definitely meet again,” Father Kob told his son with tears in his eyes. His other hand held tightly to his crying wife.

The man who bowed down to bow down to you both looked up and smiled at his father and mother. He had so much to say that he wanted to say to you but was unable to. He wanted to eat one last meal with the two of you. He could do it again. At least he wanted to hug them all one last time, but he couldn't do it anymore.

He had no idea that his last day would be that day. But today all he can do is say If you know this... but it can't bring anything back anymore.

Don't wait until the day after dawn to think about it.

Whether it's ourselves or the people we love, everyone on this planet has different times and lifespans on this planet. And we don't know when it will be our last day and him. So if you have a chance to smile at each other, smile. If there is an opportunity to laugh together, laugh. If there is a chance to cry together, let's cry.

If you have the opportunity to eat together, do it. If you have a chance to quarrel or argue, don't forget to apologize until the end.

People who love us have a second, third, or five-hundredth chance. always give us But no one will always be there to forgive you. So make every minute count. When that moment arrives, we will be able to capture the good feelings. of each other Don't wait to use the word If I knew this, I would...

Because most of the people who say those words are people who never have the opportunity to do those things again. Don't wait until daybreak...

With lots of love
