This novel is written from imagination. There are no places, people, images, history, or events in reality.
Who am I? Why am I here? Who am I!!!
The young man's tall, thin figure was reflected in the large eyes of the young girl who was buckling with her foot on the brakes. His little hand trembled when he thought... Might have killed him!
"Did you see that I told you not to drive? I don't believe you!" A loud, annoyed voice that could almost be called shouting came straight from the back seat.
The older man gave his daughter a reprimanding look for not obeying his orders.
“I'm not wrong, Dad. Well, he walked out into the sea and caught a fish in the middle of the road.” His mouth was about to make an excuse. But when she saw her father's eyes, the young girl was forced to take half the responsibility.
“Well... just a little bit is fine. I just accidentally looked the other way.” A soft voice made the elderly man relieve his anger a little.
“Go down and see what's wrong.” This decisive command couldn't help but be followed!
The girl slowly opened the car door. Before boldly looking up at the figure lying spread out in the light in front of the car.
He lay still... completely still
Until she almost thought that... He's dead.
But when I saw the ripples of my chest The girl hurried over to support a figure twice her size.
“This... this is nothing.”
“This?” The young man opened his heavy eyes. I tried to focus on the person in front of me, but the picture was blurry and I could only see him vaguely. of small bodies only
“Who... Who are you?”
“Nah... I was the one driving the car that hit you. Are you hurt anywhere?”
“And who am I?” The question that came out caused her to furrow her brow slightly. But it wasn't time to ask anything further. Her father's agitated voice first called her to her senses.
“Get in the car quickly. Someone will come and see!”
“I'll take you to rest first. We can talk about other matters later.” The girl grabbed a heavy arm and wrapped it around her neck. Try to stand up Then he carried a person several inches taller into the car in a chaotic manner...
Along the way, the car passed along an almost completely dark road. The young man had no idea where his destination would be. He could only hope that it wouldn't be any worse than the emptiness in his brain.
It didn't take long for an old pickup truck to park in front of a compact wooden house. The old man opened the door and got out of the car first. Followed by a young girl who walked around and opened the door next to him. and nodded as if telling him to follow her into the house where all the lights were turned off.
The young man wasn't sure. But he followed behind the girl. It felt as if I was familiar with this atmosphere before... Not more or less...
After arranging for him to sit in one of the halls. The young girl disappeared for a long time. Before that, a large cup of hot cocoa was carried and placed in front of the people who could only stare at it with wonder. When I saw him sitting and looking at the glass, still, The girl asked.
“Do you want to eat?”
He doesn't feel like it. But for the sake of his effort, he nodded in response.
"Good. Sigh..." She let out a loud, clear sigh. Like he wasn't sure if he was relieved or troubled.
“You don't remember anything, right?” The girl stared into the sharp, light-colored eyes that looked back innocently. Seeing the young man nod in confirmation, he let out a soft breath again.
“Then it's lucky we found you. My name is Khao. Nice to meet you.”
Her smile was so wide and bright that he felt a warmth flicker in his heart. Better than being left in the middle of the road. Plus, having a warm drink in your hand makes your body relax from the tension that grips your mind quite a bit.
“I…” He also wanted to introduce himself. But it's stuck right there. Can't remember anything at all.
His stunned expression must have made the girl sympathize.
“It's okay, let's say from now on. You are staying with us.”
She gave a kind smile. Until he accidentally thought about it... That's really lucky. To meet this father and son...
“Thank you. Really appreciate it.”
The morning atmosphere is quite bright. Sunlight streamed in through the open window just enough to feel the warmth. Just like the sounds of competing birdsong that can be heard to alleviate the feeling of loneliness. young man wakes up early in the morning To be honest, last night he lay unconscious. It's similar to having a nightmare that causes you to wake up unexpectedly.
But when he woke up, he couldn't remember anything from his dream at all. He himself only found out a few minutes ago that The home of a young girl and an old man father and son is an animal farm. Maybe because it was very dark last night. He didn't even notice how large this farm was.
Even though I thought I had woken up very early. But the young girl and the old man still had times better than him. Because when he came out of the bedroom No longer saw a shadow or heard the sound of the two people in this house. There was only a cold plate of rice and fried eggs that could hardly be found warm. And only one more can of red juice.
So when the breakfast that was prepared on the table in the hall was finished. The young man decided to walk around the house out of curiosity.
While walking He saw that on this farm there were three animal sheds far apart in each direction, each one as far as the eye could see. The young man didn't know which direction he should take first, so he just kept walking straight. Along the road in front of the house that led directly to the nearest barn of some kind.
As he approached that animal barn, He saw a young girl pushing a pile of straw. Actively serves to feed animals. That was the first thing that caught my eye and made me feel interested.
The truth from the first time I saw my face... He suddenly felt familiar with her...
The young man reflected on what happened last night. and realized that the young girl had introduced herself as Khao.
Khao raised his hand to wipe away the sweat that was dripping from his forehead. Today the weather is exceptionally hot and sunny. Even though it was late in the morning, the girl's expression looked more tired than usual. Or maybe it was because last night she had to take care of him even more.
And without warning, a can of red water was held out in front of the girl. A pair of big eyes blinked. Before turning his gaze towards the tall man who was smiling at him.
“Let me help you,” the young man stuffed a can of red juice into his hand. before grabbing the handle of a wheelchair and taking away the girl's work
“Thank you.” The girl held the can of red water tightly in her hand.
The words of thanks and the blush on his cheeks caused the young man's heart to swell in a strange way. The smile gradually widened. The marks on his face were so sharp that the traces of worry disappeared.
Throughout the afternoon he helped the girl on the farm. Starting with transporting straw to feed the cows. Then clean the barn. Khao told me that her family had lived here since her grandparents' generation. Her farm used to be a large and famous farm. People from the nearby village had to regularly come to do business with her grandfather.
But since my grandparents passed away, I don't know why those people have gradually changed. disappear for no reason The farm used to be home to several families of her father's siblings and her cousins. But they had long since moved away from the farm to the big city. As for Khao's mother, she abandoned her and her father when she could not remember because her father was sick and elderly when she was born.
And she has never heard from her mother again for the past 18 years. They have no other relatives anywhere. Right now, only her and her father were still living on the farm.
The young man only knew then that The girl had only been to school until elementary school. Never seen a department store or even a movie theater, I have never experienced it Plus, she had to take care of hundreds of farm animals by herself every day since she was 8 years old. He didn't think that this place would be in such a remote area. Because if that's the case...
Himself... What are you doing here?
Last night, he went to bed thinking about himself until he was sure that even though there were many things he had forgotten, But the understanding of life and normal skills remain He wasn't that much of an amnesiac who lost his mind. I just can't remember myself... That's it.
Therefore, upon hearing the story of the girl's life which seemed to be several steps away from the norm in his memories, I can only wonder if a man who seems to know things about the city like him... What are you doing in the middle of the road at night alone?
“Go away! Get out of my house! Now!” shouted the old man of the farm. Until he and Khao had to turn to look towards the source of the sound, which was the house where he had stayed last night. As the house is not too far from the cowshed. As they ran up to four or five tall, solemn looking men in dark suits, they were slowly walking out of the house.
“What's the matter?”
Those people didn't answer. The young man could only stop and watch the strange expressions of those people and the old man of the farm cautiously. But when he turned to look at the girl, he was even more surprised. Because she had a calm, cold expression, even though the old man who owned the farm seemed to be very angry.
“Rice,” he called, causing the small body to flinch a little.
“It's nothing. The creditor comes to collect the debt. It's always like this.” She turned around and slowly walked towards the cowshed. Then he proceeded to do the work he had left without paying attention.
“A creditor? What creditor?” The young man followed closely behind.
“Father owes him money. Our farm business is not doing well. That's how it is." He let out a loud breath. while using his knees to support the cart that refused to move forward. So he helped me in and pushed harder. Until the wheel that was stuck in the mud pit came out of the pit with difficulty.
“So what will they do?”
“Do what you can,” Rice shrugged, as if what they were going through was no big deal.
That evening it was time for food. The old man who owned the farm called them to eat together. The food the old man prepared was not a wonderful one. But as a result of his hard work, the young man felt that this meal was even more delicious than the food he had eaten before.
“Do you remember anything, young man?” the old man asked.
“Not yet.” The young man's face dropped slightly.
“I can't remember, that's good. We'll be together for a long time." He said then turned and smiled at his daughter. "How can I have friends too?"
“There were a lot of people there, so it was fun,” the girl said, giving her a smile. Until he couldn't help but smile in response.
“Don't worry, young man. Someday I must remember People don't have amnesia for the rest of their lives,” he told the children. while scooping food into his mouth
The young man didn't answer because he himself wasn't sure yet... Will there ever be that day?
Just like a father and son, neither of them knows the future. Everyone just kept their heads down and ate their meals in peace.
When the sun goes down It is a time when people generally start turning off the lights and going to bed early in the evening. The young man was preparing his bed for the night as well...
It's strange, even though I can't remember anything about myself. But he remembered how to arrange the mattress on the floor and set up the mosquito net on four poles like this. He started to feel unsure... He might actually be a villager around here who used to work on a farm...
Young man pats pillow gently before laying down to sleep Just for a moment, some images suddenly flashed into my mind. A blurred image of a thin figure in a dim place. and the image of a tall man in the dark
faucet! faucet! faucet! A knock at the door quickly shook him out of his trance.
“I brought you a blanket,” came the small voice of a girl who was starting to get a bit familiar with her. The young man immediately got up and opened the door for her.
“There are blankets.” He pointed to the thin blanket on the bed.
“It's not enough. The morning will be very cold. Didn't you feel like you were dying of cold last night?" Then Khao made a trembling gesture that looked adorable. I couldn't help but laugh.
last night? Having said that, last night he hardly knew anything. You can sleep like you're dead...
“Are you sleeping? Would you like a cup of cocoa?” He could see the longing in her big eyes.
“Yes, thank you,” he replied with a small smile.
And that night he slept soundly because of his kindness. And there is the kindness of the people here...
"...Wake up...wake up, it's morning!" A deafening shout sounded nearby... Strangely close The sound of knocking on the wooden floor followed from time to time. Until he had to close his eyes to see the source of the matter that was blocking his beautiful dream. When the eye is exposed to light The clear sight he saw made his tall figure jump out of his bed immediately.
“What are you playing? Take it away!” He pointed his finger at the creature in the hands of the girl who was holding it with care.
“Oh... You don't like it? I think it's cute.” She playfully stared at the squirming piglet in her hands.
"I... I don't know. Once I saw it..." A hand rubbed his neck when he felt something that he couldn't explain in words. “I can hardly breathe,” he summed it up for her simply.
“So? I just saw someone afraid of pigs. No, Ood.” Rice didn't care too much. She continued to playfully tease the little pig.
Meanwhile, the young man felt so disgusted by the pig in her hand that he almost wanted to vomit...
“Breakfast is already prepared. Let's go eat first and then go to work.”
“Yes,” he answered shortly. As he thought about things that even he didn't understand.
The shadow leaning against the wall in the corner ahead was that of a young woman he knew. Her frantic voice became so loud that he had to rush in to help...
Someone's large hand was pulling her wavy hair heavily. A cry for help echoed throughout the room...
who!?
Who is that woman? Is it rice... is it rice?
“Help, help me, help me!!!”
Suddenly that name rang out. The tall figure was startled. Sweat covered my body. A pair of sharp eyes widened and looked around in fear...
What is that?
He looked at the cocoa cup that was emitting warm smoke. Come out of the glass... He must have fallen asleep. because of tiredness from work Until I forgot to drink the cocoa that Rice had prepared for me.
Today is another day when work on the farm continues to get harder and more tiring. Even more so was knowing that after they had finished feeding and cleaning the cowshed. Rice still has to go through the same routine at the pig and chicken barns by himself. He couldn't help admiring the little girl's diligence.
A large hand rubbed his own face. Breathe lightly. When you feel lucky you're not in a nightmare... Truth be told, there are people who have worse nightmares than him.
That's right, it's not him. But it's the rice and the old man who owns the farm who are having bad luck and deterioration...
In the evening the creditors came to demand more money from them. And it looks like tonight they have arranged to make some payments in installments. Some of them may refer to their entire source of livelihood... Rice said so.
What could he possibly do to help his benefactor? Not more or less...
The young man slowly The room door opened ajar as quietly as possible. The light from the hall still reflected on the walls. He was sure that negotiations were still going on. I don't know how many hours it had been since he fell asleep.
Suddenly, the sound of something dragging sounded. and louder and clearer until he had to strain his eyes to see from the dark
A large shadow crossed the wall and the sound of dragging things seemed to echo deep into his chest. The symptoms of bloating occurred again. Until he had to carry his body back into the room and quickly close the door.
I don't know why... I don't know what it is... But I'm uncomfortable and close to death. Seeing a picture similar to that in a dream...
“Did you not sleep well last night?” A chattering sound followed him as he was walking to feed the cows.
“Oh,” he answered casually. Because I don't know how to explain last night.
“Why? Is it because of the cold weather or that I heard a sound... Oops!”
“Sound?” Rice's suspicious expression only increased his suspicions.
“Oh... Well, last night, Dad and I rearranged our room. Did you see that the sofa in the hall was missing? It moved into my room,” the girl stammered. Trying to smile widely to cover up something.
The young man could only ignore the strangeness too much. Because the matter he is more concerned about is the livelihood and livelihood of the two fathers and children.
“So, what do you do with your father about the debt?”
“Oh, I and Dad have already taken care of that matter.” After saying that, the girl hummed in good spirits.
“So they gave you an extension?”
“They were even kinder than that. So tonight we're going to celebrate.”
“What are you celebrating?” The more the girl spoke, the more he couldn't understand why just being able to extend the time to repay the debt made her so happy.
“Let's celebrate being able to get out of debt. And how about welcoming you? You and Dad will do our best to cook!”
Pok! The sound of uncorking the cork of domestically produced wine rang out at the same time. With everyone sitting together face to face
Even though everyone said they only The old man who owns the rice farm, Chao Ood, and himself... It seemed to be a family banquet. So I didn't invite neighbors or other acquaintances to join. The table was so rich with so many expensive dishes that he felt happiness radiating all around. The old-fashioned cha-cha music playing in the background made the atmosphere livelier.
“Do you remember anything, young man?” The same question the old man always asked when he met him.
“Not yet... I'm sorry I bothered you for such a long time.”
The elderly man's rough hands waved slightly in protest.
“Don't worry about that, young man. Just living happily is enough. Moreover, When the young man came to live with him, his busy daughter didn't often come to complain about being lonely.”
The young man turned to look at the girl who was smiling so brightly that her cheeks almost burst.
"Yes, there are a lot of people coming together. It's going to be so much fun."
Rice's smile is a special smile. When he saw a smile as bright as the sun shining through the darkness He must be able to smile with her every time.
“Thank you, Uncle. Thank you very much, rice.”
And that meal was another meal that was considered more delicious than any other meal. that he had eaten before...
It ended with a warm and friendly party. Cleaning work followed. But Khao and Uncle volunteered to be the ones to clean things up this time. and refused to let him help pick up anything. Giving the reason that 'Tonight's event, he is a guest.'
“Go to bed, young man. We'll take care of it ourselves this way,” the old man said before moving the large chair he had dragged out of another room to put away.
“Yes, you go rest, I'll make some cocoa for you.”
“But what should I do to help?”
Rice looked at him thoughtfully. Then he pointed at the small folding table.
“Then please take it to the storage room at the back of the house for me.”
“Yes,” he hurriedly accepted happily. before proceeding with the command immediately
The storage room is a small wooden house. It was about ten meters outside the house. When the rotted wooden door was opened, the inside was dark and musty, like a storage room.
“Ugh! It stinks. What is that smell?” He pinched his nose when he smelled the smell wafting from the dark room. Along with turning on the small light hanging at the entrance, you can see inside.
A folding table was moved inside to keep it from blocking the narrow hallway in a room with almost no space. Until his leg kicked into something that was left in the mess.
“Oh!” A pair of sharp eyes looked in the direction of the cause in annoyance.
Who the fuck had a damn sofa? Let's block the way like this... He stood up, intending to push it out of the way. But then his eyes suddenly fell on some dark brown dried stains all over the surface of the sofa.
A sofa...a sofa? When I looked at that sofa clearly He seemed to remember something. But a small shriek made him scurry into the dark part of the room. Behind a large pile of cardboard boxes
"Alas! Dad thinks too much, he has no way of knowing.”
“You stupid son of a bitch! How can you not know? We keep all the stuff in there.” There was a hint of anger in the old farm owner's voice.
What do you know!? What item!?
Without warning, his foot collided with the black bag on the side. until the stuff inside fell out He picked up a small leather bag that he assumed was a wallet and looked at it.
A hand slowly opened it. Before finding out that there was a picture of him and a woman inside!
A picture he doesn't recognize... Pictures that are never in my memory...
“Don't tell me that Father kept those things in here!” The sound of rice was getting closer and closer.
“Well, where do you want me to put it? Keep it in the house and it will stink to the point of not being able to sleep.”
“Then why didn't Dad immediately take them and throw them in the manure pit?”
“No need to come off topic! Give heavy orders not to let anyone enter the storage room. You still managed to tell that young man to come.”
“Oh my! You really create your own problems. You still have to give me trouble,” the girl muttered.
“What do you say!!!”
“Father said that if you kill those two people, Will we have enough money to pay off debt? Look, there's not enough money. Plus, I had to kill many people who came to collect debts.”
“Don't just complain, hurry up and take care of these bastards so we can put an end to this once and for all!” The old man ordered his daughter to come in and drag the sacks out of the room one by one.
Kill... corpse... debt!!! Enough to piece together the whole story. His sharp face suddenly turned pale...
He is living with a murderer!
The young man immediately felt both shocked and frightened. It is not the fear of being close to life and death. But I'm afraid of things that I can't see with my eyes...
What do these people's hearts do? Why is it so cruel and inhumane? Not just one... Their confessions indicate that the father and son duo have killed more than five people. For him... Rice and her father saved his life. They offered help, were considerate in their care, and treated helpless people like him with such kindness that I was fooled into thinking that I had met the Virgin Mary.
I never thought that the father of the Virgin Mary would become a murderer who could easily kill people...
He still didn't want to accept the story he just heard. Maybe they have good reasons. That it was necessary to do such a terrible thing. Thinking of this, the young man calmed down. If he's willing to open his heart and listen to both of them. Maybe the story that happened Ah, it's not as bad as you think. Or maybe it's just a misunderstanding.
Waited until the two figures were out of sight. The young man released himself from his hiding place.
“I didn't think I'd be hiding here.” A voice that made the tall man jump up in shock.
His face gradually became frightened. Slowly turned towards the source of the sound.
"rice!"
A smile as bright as the sun still adorned the girl's face.
So cool!!! A loud noise resounded in his head many times. Until finally the sound disappeared. He didn't hear anything anymore...
Greed is the raw nature of humanity. If there is no restraint then... There would be no true peace and tranquility in such a small world. This is for sure...
A luxury brand white sports car screeched to a halt in a large animal farm. The girl who stepped down was wearing a long skirt that covered her ankles. It doesn't look like he intended to come to this farm. Just like the young man who came down later. He himself had some hesitation in his expression.
“What's wrong?” The voice of an elderly man with a rough face asked when he saw the strange behavior. of men and women who come to their farms
“My wife and I would like to come and stay here for one night. It happened that this was a transit point between provinces and we were already quite tired from traveling. There aren't any hotels around here.” A polite, sharp-faced young man inquired.
"Uncle, I'll pay double the price for the accommodation." A young woman with a charming face walked in and took her boyfriend's arm. Revealing a large diamond ring that indicates...they are a person with money.
The old man nodded in response. “Yes, we have several spare rooms in the house. You can choose as you like. As for food, if you don't mind, you can come and eat together.”
“Thank you.” The husband and wife turned and smiled at each other with joyful expressions.
Once you can choose the room with the best atmosphere The young wife lay down from exhaustion.
“Don't sleep yet. Let's go for a long walk first. Let's come and breathe some fresh air,” the young man tried to persuade.
"Alas! Birds aren't like this one. Suddenly, I want to honeymoon at a house outside the paddy field like this."
“I just miss my hometown.”
When you feel like you can't think about what you're talking about. And the young man had an unhappy expression on his face. The young woman hurriedly continued speaking.
“Oh, don't be disappointed. Birds just think about traveling in the country. for when we're old You can still travel together. But the opportunity to have holidays at the same time plus it was our honeymoon trip as well. We would rather travel abroad. Because if you're old We can't afford to go."
“But for me, no matter how old I am, If there are birds with you I can handle it.” He said as he grabbed the thin person and hugged him. until the girl's face turned red
"flatter! smooth-tongued"
“Have you tasted it yet? It will guarantee true sweetness.” He tightened his embrace even more.
The couple who were enjoying their honeymoon could only look into each other's eyes before laughing happily. There was never a day that they wanted to be apart. Such a sweet and warm moment. It's something they've been searching for all their lives.
faucet! faucet! Knock!... A loud knock on the room door interrupted the happy time. Until the young woman's face became sullen, feeling annoyed.
The young man hurriedly walked over and opened the room door feeling considerate.
“What is it?”
“Bring me a blanket.” A girl with tan skin, wide eyes, hair tied in pigtails, carried a large blanket and handed it to her.
“We already have one.” He saw that there were already two blankets on the bed.
"It's not enough. As morning approaches, the weather will be very cold."
“Then thank you.”
She gave him a genuine smile. He smiled back as he was so touched by such kindness and smile.
"Oh... Today's dinner is straw-baked chicken, stir-fried mixed vegetables, and bland soup. Dad asked me to ask if I could eat it or not?"
“Yes, but I hope it's delicious.”
"Oh! This layer is definitely delicious.” She gave herself a thumbs up. He laughed before running away. Leaving a sharp smile on your face.
“What is a small smile and a big smile?”
“It's nothing. I just think that kid is cute. I really want to have a daughter like that.”
The girl's face turned red again. Before pretending to cover it up
“I'm not joking anymore. It's better to go for a walk.” Then a figure walked over, fluttering, leading her husband out of the room.
The young man hurriedly walked along the path where he thought his wife would come. But until then, I survived. Strangely, he didn't see her walking nearby. Even though I had just lost sight of her at the corner of the stairs just moments ago.
“Are you looking for someone?”
Turning around, he saw the girl who had just handed him the blanket.
“I just happened to come down for a walk with my girlfriend. And it's probably a mistake."
“I saw a young lady walking over there,” the girl pointed to the road in front. “It's a cow barn.”
“This is a cow farm.”
“We don't just raise cows. There are pigs and chickens.” A small hand pointed to two buildings further away.
When he saw the young man's expression of interest, The girl hurriedly made an offer.
“Would you like me to take you to see the cow shed? It's not far away, not as dirty as the pig and chicken shed. Because I clean it every day,” she said with pride.
He didn't intend to refuse because he had quite a bit of interest in this kind of farm business. Even though you have a stable job But he is also looking for a way to build a foundation for the new family he and his wife are building. The girl took him to see the cowsheds that were divided into sections. and happily told him stories of her work and duties from morning until evening.
The young man felt quite attracted to the young girl. She is a sweet, considerate child and is also talkative. If he had to guess, he'd think she was probably only fifteen, but her knowledge and experience sounded like she had matured a lot. Haven't had time to ask yet. He met his wife who was walking along the way looking at birds and plants.
The girl walked him and his wife around most of the area. Both where I wanted to go and where I had to go with her encouragement. Before I realized I had been walking for several hours, the sky started to change color.
dinner time He and his wife had to go to the hall in the house of the old man and his daughter. They welcomed them very well... very good
Until I didn't think that something bad like that would happen...
“Where are you two going?”
“We are going to the north for a honeymoon for a month.”
“No wonder you brought a lot of food,” the old man muttered as his daughter served a second plate of rice to the young man.
“What is your name?” the girl asked.
"My name is Tiw, and my wife's name is Nok. And what about you?"
“Khao, my name is Khao.”
“Nice to meet you,” Tiw gave him a small smile that seemed friendlier than the farm owner who wore a stern expression at the corner of the table.
"pleased to meet you Where have you traveled before? Please tell me. I have never traveled far before.”
“The first place I went was....” Then the young man and his wife told the story of their travels with great gusto. Young girl acts as a good listener. His eyes widened every time he told about the place. Foreign atmosphere, people, fashion, or even things that are trending in the online world or new technology. that young girls have never experienced before
after dinner Rice is still fun. Invite them to chat until the sky begins to darken.
"rice! Come talk to Father over there.” The old man used a harsher tone than usual. “Please feel free to invite all of you. I'm sorry I disturbed you all.”
"No, it's really fun to talk to. It's been a while since we've had fun talking like this."
“Then we won't bother you. I'd like to go get some rest now."
"Wait a minute, I'll make something hot for you to drink."
He intended to refuse because he was already very considerate.
“Yes, please, wait just a moment. What should I get? Cocoa or milk?” Her pleading expression made them unable to resist.
“Please give me cocoa. Thank you rice.”
After a while, the girl returned with a large glass of cocoa in her hand. They drank happily while admiring the atmosphere on the balcony. The cold air hit her body so much that the girl had to wrap herself in it from the cold. So the young man gave up his outerwear to cover his shoulders. She looked up at him and smiled...
And that was the last beautiful thing he saw of his wife...
“Help…” A pair of sharp eyes widened in the darkness. A large hand held his head in confusion...
How did he get here?
The last thing I remember was chatting pleasantly with his wife on the balcony. So why did you wake up in the middle of the kitchen like this?
“Help…” Once again, that voice stirred the young man's consciousness.
His wife is in need of help! The tall figure raised his body and carried his body towards the source of the sound.
The light from the living room reflected on the walls. The silhouette of a figure he was certain was his wife's was reflected on it. He thought he would take a long step. Go straight to that room as quickly as possible...
Fast...but very slow in feelings His body was so numb that he could barely move.
“Help...Help!!!” Even though the cries for help were faint, But he did not spare any effort to bring himself to help his young wife.
His limbs were so heavy that he had to go into a state called...crawling...
“Nok, nok, nok…” No matter how much I tried to shout out to her, But his voice was lost in his throat.
He finally crawled to the front of the room... seems relieved
But the sight that appeared before his eyes made him wish he had come sooner, even for a fraction of a second!
The old farm owner was using his rough hands to pull at her wavy hair. His white face was covered in a crimson color that couldn't be guessed where it was coming from. It was no different from the body and torso that was covered with blood and wounds.
What is this...what is this all about!!!
“Bird,” his soft voice seemed to reach her ears. A pair of beautiful eyes that were slowly swollen Prue looked up at him.
“Help... Tiw, help the bird!!!” She reached out her hand that still had some strength towards him. Just as he was trying to reach out his hand that he could barely lift to reach hers. But then a pointed weapon about a cubit long was thrust into his wife's body right before her eyes. By the skill of the person who thinks... Lucky to have met...
Some of the bodies were still...
Completely still...not even breathing....
“Bird, bird, no bird!!!”
Even though it felt as if he had shouted her name out loud. But in reality, he could only move his lips and mutter her name. He didn't even have the strength to move away.
“Dad, what are you doing?!” A young girl's voice sounded as his consciousness began to fade. It seems like there's some hope. When I hear your voice
The old man kept silent and looked at his daughter, who had a slightly startled expression on her face.
“Doing this will make the floor all messy. Why don't you go do it in another room? Please clean this room!” Her father shouted loudly.
“So what should I do with this person?”
The father and son turned to look at him, who was now no different from a living doll.
The girl looked at him for a moment. Before bending down to pick up the knife handle on the floor, he walked towards him.
and slammed it hard into the middle of his head!
There isn't even hope... I don't even know the answer... What exactly happened to his life... The young man had to close his eyes, which could not be opened any longer, defeated by fate.
“And Father is going to sell their belongings to pay off the debt? How much will it get?”
“Don't you have eyes? Just the diamonds that girl wears can amount to hundreds of thousands! This time we will be able to pay off our debt.”
“What about these?”
“Hide it in the pigsty first. Tomorrow morning we hurry to take things to sell. Come back and take care of the body later,” he told his daughter, who didn't seem pleased.
A strangely cold sensation caused him to open his eyes. Dozens of spheres of light reflected in the darkness. It took me a long time to figure out what those lights were because they were accompanied by an unsettling sound and a suffocating stench... It's a pig!
While some tried to use their noses to push away any horns that were in their way, as if to repel them. Dozens more were trampling and piling up on his body. The smell was so bad I almost vomited. The weight that presses down to the point where it's almost impossible to breathe in a narrow space like this...
At first, he wondered why his body had become so weak overnight. But he finally came up with an idea. It was probably because the cocoa he drank last night had some kind of medicine mixed in. His body still couldn't move. There's only one thing that can be done right now... Try to breathe for as long as possible... Do your best to survive.
I don't know how long...
Before his body could move from the fingertips It was the tips of his toes, his arms, his legs...and he was finally able to get himself out of the cramped pigsty. It's very crowded.
Try to walk through the small ditch. in a direction believed to take him out onto the main road And so it happened. Fortunately, after walking for hours, a large road came into view.
Just a few meters away... Just a few more meters and he would be alive!
Creak!!! Bang!!! A deafening sound resounded in his brain before his consciousness faded...
The young man slowly Open your eyes to the bright light shining on the ceiling. He was lying on a soft, warm mattress. Beside the head of the bed was a light dim enough to see. Then out of the corner of his eye he stumbled upon something next to him...
A picture of a young girl lying next to a patient. make him feel surprised His hand rose tightly to his head that was hurting like it was about to explode.
"Ouch!"
“Have you recovered?”
"who? Who are you... Who am I? Why am I here? Who am I?!” His panicked expression made the girl let out a faint smile.
“My name is Khao. Nice to meet you. If you don't remember, that's okay. You are welcome here.”
THE END.
