I Told Sunset About You (2020) s01e02 Episode Script
Episode 2
1
I'm off.
Bye-bye.
See ya.
Hey, Bas.
I'll help you with that.
Bye-bye!
- See you.
Is Bas your chauffeur?
Chauffeur, your ass.
Ma, hello.
Hello, dear.
I’ll be tutored here.
Make yourself at home, Oh-aew.
See? You're tutoring your friend now.
But you have to go back to study too.
Ma, I already got it, I don’t have to
practice my Mandarin Chinese anymore.
Okay, don’t change the subject.
You still need your last semester’s GPA.
Ma, I’ve been stressed for years.
Let me have my own school break.
I'll go to school next week.
Okay?
Okay.
You can do well, that, I know.
I'm just worried that you
won’t finish school. That’s all.
Since you've already got in
the faculty that you wanted.
Oh, I forgot.
Hoon left you this before going to work.
What is it?
He said it’s the gift for the
one who passed the exam.
You were complaining about having
a back pain to him, weren’t you?
What is it?
Here.
What?
A plane ticket?
Is this for real
Yes!
Don't forget to say thanks to Hoon.
Will I get to be on the plane?
What’s wrong?
Is it not good?
Yes, it is good. The sauce
smells great like it used to.
Well, I’ve been thinking-
about what you talked to Ma,
that you got in the
faculty that you wanted.
So I’ve been asking myself,
which are the 4 faculties I should choose,
after the admission exam.
Aren’t you gonna choose
Communication Arts for all 4 places?
The first two will be Communication Arts.
But the 3rd and 4th will have
to be Business Administration.
In case I have to go help
the resort business at home.
You wanna work on the resort?
I thought you only wanted
to get in performing arts.
I do.
But when my Dad asked if I could make it,
got scared.
But if you choose what you like,
you fight for it, and do it well,
both money and stability will follow.
You're well-rounded so you can choose.
It’s not like everyone
can do what you can.
I'm just a 12th grader. Why do I
need to hurry to choose my future?
Hey, calm down.
You still got time.
Take your time to think.
How about this-right now,
you just focus on studying,
and do your best on the exam,
get good score,
And then you’ll be able to
choose the faculty that you want in.
I'll help you.
Hello, yes?
Oh, yes.
From the Faculty of Communication Arts,
Anantasart University?
What’d they say?
I’m the first one on the waiting list?
Really?
And what do I have to do?
happy for you!
So, if one person relinquishes,
I get in right away, right?
Really?
I'll look forward to your call.
Thank you very much.
Teh! I’m the first
one on the waiting list!
I'm really happy for you!
Keep going!
I still have hope
Let’s go celebrate!
It's on me today!
Hey, wait, celebrate later.
Today, you’re to be tutored.
You still need to study.
call my Mom.
Here, I’m writing so big saying
‘Waiting-List Announcement Day’
Give me that.
“I’ll go first.”
And this day, I’ll be reporting myself
as a uni student in Bangkok first.
Let me color it, so it will be visible
even looking from Promthep Cape.
You use a pen with coconut scent?
Oh, of course.
A guy like me,
coconut scent's my signature.
You take it back now.
It’s freakin’ stinky.
Shit.
What? Coconuts smell great.
It makes you calm and relaxed.
My hair smells like coconut too.
Wanna smell it?
No!
NO!
No, don’t!
Bark, bark, bark.
Anyhow, you can’t just wait
for someone to relinquish.
C'mon, let’s start studying.
The vocab has like 5,000 characters?
How can I memorize them all?
No, you don’t have to.
The Chinese Proficiency
Test only needs HSK 4
That’s only 1,200 characters.
and you want to memorize the rest,
you do it later in case it's in the exam.
There are only 26 letters in English.
In Chinese, you have to
memorize it as a picture, a story.
One character is for one word,
one meaning.
Have you recited any vocab?
You’ve never?
Yes, I have.
But I don’t understand it.
See? Ugh.
There are lots of lines-
tangling.
How did you memorize it?
I practiced Chinese Handwriting every day.
Have you practiced at all?
Yes, I have.
But not this much.
Just seeing this makes my hand weary.
Ha!
First thing first, you have to practice
Chinese Handwriting every single day.
Practice until your brain absorbs it.
No matter how boring it is,
you gotta do it.
You know, I did it until I got used to it.
When I think of something
and doesn’t want to say it,
I take it out on writing
it in Chinese characters.
It helps me memorizing.
Why do you write this one the whole page?
'RIVAL'
I don’t know.
I don't remember.
You meant me?
What?
Hey!
Give it back!
You really meant me?
I'm getting it back now.
C’mon, let go!
Was it me?
What?
Where are you going?
Follow me.
Where to?
I'm gonna show you something.
Why are you bringing all the toys out?
No.
Here.
These are flash cards.
I carry them with me to recite every day.
1 set contains 20 characters.
All of this contains 1,200 characters.
I give them all to you.
Are you sure you’re giving me?
I’m afraid that I’ll get too
good if I keep these to myself.
Yeah, take them.
When you’re free,
you recite-or even while you eat.
But after the recision, you have to come
back and practice on Chinese Handwriting.
And that’s not enough.
Every time you see me,
we have to revise these characters.
And translate them,
and also work on pronunciation.
I guarantee you,
you’ll be able to memorize it.
If you don’t want it, it’s fine-
Hey! I do.
Well, you seemed to be not
responding. I thought you didn’t want it.
Well, I was just thinking-
It's no surprise why
you’re so good at studying.
I should take that compliment
from someone else.
Please help me until
I'm so glad.
Glad?
I don't know.
But I like it. Just keep saying that.
Please help me until
Too much.
I gave you many things already.
Can I ask you one thing?
What?
See? You look good from this side.
Show it, your nose bridge.
Was that an insult?
C'mon, keep doing it.
What's wrong with my front profile?
Smile?
Yes, like-hahahaha.
Right.
1-2-3.
'RIVAL'
'INTIMATE'
Today the royal carriage is a sidecar.
Are you posting on an Instagram Story?
Yeah!
What? You said it's for fun.
Let me see.
I looked terrible.
My head is like a ping-pong ball.
Don’t post it.
What makes you think that
you’ll look better without a helmet?
I'll post it.
It’ll be gone in 24 hours.
It’s good,
wind hitting your face like this.
During the end of the year,
when I ride, it’s very chilling.
Someone says if you’re holding
two hands up like this while speeding,
it’s like touching boobs.
What the hell?
Who told you that?
Mod said it. I don’t know.
And is it like that?
I don't know. Guess you gotta try.
What?
You’ve never?
No. Not yet.
oh.
Well, have you?
Don't tell anyone, okay?
I won’t.
Don’t, okay?
I won't!
Don't, alright?
I won’t. Tell me now!
I’m chaste!
HA.
What? And you?
Me?
For real?
Yeah.
For real?
Aha.
Never been this real
Yeah.
Chaste!
C'mon.
Does coconut smell good?
No, I hate it!
No. Stop it. It stinks.
Don’t!
It stinks!
Thanks for the ride.
Yeah, not a problem.
When you get home,
practice on the handwriting.
If you don't understand anything,
message me.
Bye.
Ride home safely.
I'm off.
Yeah, off you go.
Back safely.
Don't forget handwriting!
Yeah!
Bye-bye.
Go, go away! Go!
Shoo!
Add to Your Story
Today the royal carriage is a sidecar.
You're so tight-lipped.
I know you’re worried about him.
So pompous.
You scolded him yesterday.
And today, you tutored him, huh?
Well, I feel sorry for him.
He'll come to learn in the evening.
Oh, Teh.
Huh?
I'm gonna practice drawing this evening.
Do you want to come along?
But-
will you be back in time to tutor Oh-aew?
I can postpone.
Really?
go wherever you go.
Yeah.
Excellent.
I'll finish this.
Oh-
Your Hokkian Mee is so delicious.
If I knew it was this good,
I’d be having it a long time ago.
Can you make it?
Yes, I can.
Normally, if I make it,
I’ll put a hibiscus-l mean, lots of squids.
What hibiscus?
Squids.
Huh?
Squids.
Well, I heard hibiscus.
Hey!
Teh!
That's why you said hibiscus!
No, no, I’m sorry.
I accidentally saw it.
I'm sorry.
You took a peek at my boobies?
Shit.
Peeky peeky at my boobies?
No!
Stop! Stop!
I'm sorry.
Teh: Oh, you’ve arrived at my place?
Oh-aeW: Yeah, for a while. Are you done?
So, Oh-aew is at my place already.
Will you excuse me? I’ll go tutor him.
Oh, he came early.
Okay, I’ll see you later.
Keep drawing, k?
‘Teacher'
No!
‘Li Xiang’
it means ideal.
Oh, who could memorize it?
Look at these strokes. A lot of them.
How about this?
What does it mean?
Don’t know.
Don't know.
It's one kind of a weather-
How’s the weather today?
Hot.
No
Chilled.
No!
How about this?
'Da'
C'mon, think.
'De'
no.
Think, think, think.
I have no idea.
You didn’t prepare yourself,
I had to translate for you word by word.
You go home and then you’ll forget.
Tomorrow,
you’ll come back and forget again.
You have to memorize
the root of each word.
Take ‘Li Xiang’.
The root of it is ‘Xin’,
which means ‘Heart’.
So the words will be about
things involved what’s in your heart.
There are other words that contain ‘Xin’.
Like this word, ‘Fang Xin’ is to trust.
‘Dan Xin’ is to be worried.
‘Guan Xin’ is to care.
‘Xin Xin’ is to have faith.
‘Shang Xin’ is to be sad.
Ma.
Mao.
Means?
A cat.
Very good.
'Bang Zhu', means-
to help.
Yes!
Yes!
C'mon, think, think.
C'mon, hurry up, hurry up.
There’s a ‘Xin’, meaning a ‘Heart’.
What's the heart involved
Li Xiang, ideal.
Bravo!
Very good.
I'm so good at this, tutoring you.
Where else?
That's enough.
I don't wanna go home yet.
My brain is still working.
Wow, so enthusiastic.
You want to have jelly?
And we’ll continue guessing
the words at the restaurant.
Yeah. Yeah.
You want to?
I'll go change.
What for?
No one’s gonna look at you.
The whole crowd at the restaurant will.
Look at how handsome I am.
Hey! MoRaoYuLok!
Hey!
This is such a coincidence.
Phuket is a small town.
Oh, I forgot to tell you.
I invited them.
Sorry.
Oh?
When did you invite them?
Oh, after we finished tutoring.
I told Bas and he invited everyone.
But don’t worry.
I ordered extra red beans for you.
Guys, yesterday was freakin’ madness.
I was about to go eat with Karakade,
right?
And there was a car following,
with full beam on.
So, she was really angry.
She shouted,
‘What the fuck are you doing?’.
Wow, why so aggressive?
And what happened next?
It’s her Mom’s car!
Oh, what a pity!
My girlfriend, even sad still adorable.
You love showing her off, your Karakade.
Well, Karakade is adorable.
You never had any girlfriends.
How would you know?
What?
Leave me out of it,
Manao and I are still good.
I used to have a girlfriend
so leave me out of it too.
Hey, I used to have one too.
Teh's also seeing someone.
So there’s only you left, Oh.
Never got a girlfriend.
Never talked to any girls.
Never.
Well, I’ve never got anyone.
Never got a girl.
But I’ve never lost my virginity.
Chaste!
OH. MY. GOD.
Oh-aew: What’s wrong?
Teh: What?
Oh-aew: You seem upset.
I’m gonna go pee.
Teh!
What?
What’s wrong?
Did anyone do something wrong?
No, nothing.
I just thought that-
we were gonna come
here and guess the words.
And you invited all of
them so I got confused-
like, how are we gonna do it?
What?
\Ne can all guess together, it’s fine.
How will you focus then?
You’ll just play.
Okay.
Teh!
Is there anything else?
No.
you’ve just spread
the word about yourself.
You told me not to say
but you did it yourself.
About what?
About chaste?
Why? Everyone is my friends too.
Why couldn’t I tell them?
What?
Actually,
I don’t know what’s wrong with me.
But it’ll go away, never mind.
Teh,
you said you’re gonna take a week off,
why are you back so early?
Well, Imiss my friends.
Everyone is my friends.
Hey, guys.
I have something to ask.
Yeah?'
Are you guys virgins?
What?
I'm still a virgin.
Oh.
I just wanna tell you.
That’s it?
Satisfied?
Intimate
Intimate
I'm going home.
What?
See ya.
What’s wrong with you?
See ya.
Are you alright?
You can talk to us, you know.
Oh!
Wh-?
What are you doing here?
Why are you doing this?
What if other people see you?
The thing is I’ve got
something on my mind.
So I wanted to come see you right away.
What is it?
I-
Say it.
I don’t like it when-
you said everyone was your friends too.
Shit, it’s like-l don’t like that-
I thought it was like we’d
become close to each other again.
So, I feel-
equal to them.
Well, I don’t know how to explain.
Nevermind.
I thought it was something else.
Why are you thinking so much?
You're my closest friend.
Alright.
I guess that’s it.
You’re still not alright.
Just never mind.
It's not a big deal.
So you were upset-
that I told other people-
what I'd told you, right?
Alright, then.
I have a secret that
I’ve never told anyone.
But I will only tell you.
What is it?
I like Bas.
Shit!
Really?
For real?
What?
Shit!
Tell me!
How?
C’mon.
Hold on, I’m too shy to say
C'mon.
Well-
it was last semester, in all of a sudden,
Bas said to me,
"My way home goes pass the pier.
I can pick you up."
I was like, "Oh shit, it’s convenient.
Isn't that nice,
having someone pick you up."
And then, he really came.
After that,
we kinda had a moment in a car sometimes.
A-ha.
What?
Hey, it’s the last semester.
No.
I don't know what he thinks of me.
He seems to like girls.
And I don’t want to lose him as a friend.
I’ll help you.
How?
Well, I’ll find a way.
How about you?
Don’t be too distracted that
you can’t focus on your study.
The exam is coming.
You're good now, right?
I've been alright from the start.
Don't.
Been alright from the start?
You were having a long face.
Alright.
I have someone that I like too.
Oh, really, who? You never told me.
Her name is Tarn.
But we’re not a couple yet.
Just like-talking, you know?
I'll show you the pic.
Here.
Pretty?
go follow her.
Go get her! This drawing girl.
Of course, I will.
Can I ask you one thing?
What?
About what I told you,
keep it a secret.
'Secret'
Are your pants,
haven’t been worn for so long, tighter now?
No. I guess, I stay fit as always.
Boo!
Teh: Try to get closer to him.
Oh-aew: What for?
Teh: If he doesn’t move away,
he might like you.
'No.'
‘Why?’
Hey,
write your name down so it won’t get lost.
Oh-aew: Why would friends write
names on the sheet for each other?
Ugh.
Teh: A smart mouth online
but such a loser at the cafeteria.
It’s good now that you’re back
to take the extra class with us.
So you can tutor Oh as well.
Well, if you get less score than Phillip,
you gotta reconsider yourself.
Guys,
my girlfriend just got a new haircut.
Isn’t she pretty?
But wait, who’s that girl on the right?
I’ve never seen her before.
She’s kinda cute.
Shit, you wanna take a look?
Let me see.
Yeah, kinda cute.
But not as cute as my girl.
Do you want to know if Bas likes you?
Be observant.
What are you gonna do?
You'll see.
Guys.
Yeah?
Huh?
I’ll be hitting on Oh-aew.
You must be joking, right?
I'm being serious.
Just kidding.
Asshole.
Just a little joke, guys.
Oh.
Are you free on Sunday afternoon?
Let’s go tutoring.
Well
I'll let you know.
You can send me a message tonight.
So
on the way home with Bas today,
did you two kiss in the car?
Are you nuts?
But earlier in the car,
he was talking to me more than usual.
If he hadn’t turned on the radio,
he would’ve heard my heart beat so fast.
Oh, whatever.
How about you and Tarn?
Does your heart beat fast like this?
Every single time that I’m with her.
Whoa, that much?
Why?
Well,
because we’re still not a couple yet.
I get to go after her every day.
And each day, my heart pounds really fast.
One more thing is I really like seeing her
with so much effort, following her dream.
It’s like I’m surrounded by
the person with the same vibe.
How about you?
What do you like about Bas?
He’s handsome, alright?
Do you think I’m handsome too?
told you this before.
You’re good-looking just from the side.
Go tutoring with him.
Well, he’s not only handsome-
he’s also kind, very kind to me.
Although he seems quiet and not caring,
he’s a good listener.
And he always supports me.
When you were joking about hitting on me,
And Bas reacting that way
Do you think he thinks something of me?
Don’t you?
I think there’s a possibility.
If not, why would he avoid eye
contact when you looked at him?
You, go for it!
Then this Sunday,
can he come learn with us?
Guh, if he comes, you won’t get tutored.
You’ll only be looking at him.
But it’s up to you.
If you want him to tutor you, then go.
But you have to focus,
and not on his face.
Then, I should let you tutor me.
So, what’s the deal?
Do you want to change your mind?
Then, can I go with him?
But I promise you I will focus.
Please, please.
Please, please.
Oh.
Huh?
Try reading it into detail but just once,
so it will save you time.
Try.
Jia You. Go for it!
You can do it?
Huh?
Ok, ok alright?
Oh-aew: Okay,
I will keep my phone away now.
Teh.
Don't you have to go
tutoring Oh-aew today?
Well, I wanna see you.
Don't you want me to?
You're annoying.
Oh, really?
‘ILIUJIAI
Go on!
I know!
Okay, ready? 1-2-3.
Yang Rou, meaning lamb or mutton.
Right?
Excellent!
Baa-baa.
Well, it’s ‘sheep’.
"Oh-aew sent you a photo."
Oh-aew: Teh, he’s not moving away.
"After today, I’ll be with you
every afternoon. @tarntanoad"
Teh.
Really?
You're not that free.
That’s true.
But if I am, I will be here.
Shit.
Are you done?
I’m so tired.
Yes, it’s done. Here it is.
You drew this?
How was the tutoring yesterday?
Yesterday?
It went well, we used flash cards.
So..
Wanna guess the words
before Lao Shi comes?
What are you watching?
Wow.
Guys, should we find a quiet place to
practice doing the exam this weekend?
How about going to my resort?
Stay a night and wake up to swim!
Yeah, let’s do that.
Dive into water.
You’re so chill, Teh.
Already got accepted into
the university. Then teach us!
How could you manage to
memorize all 1,200 characters?
You have to practice with
Chinese Handwriting a lot.
How about this-
Days that I don’t have to spend with Tarn,
I’ll make you guys flash cards.
Wow.
Want some?
Kai.
Phillip.
Mod.
Bas.
Want some?
So you can recite during the day.
Excellent.
I’m so lucky.
So many good things happened today.
You're so kind to us.
I'm going to the restroom.
Alright.
Hey, don’t forget to make us the cards.
Right, of course.
See you.
Later.
"Haven’t guessed the words together."
"Haven’t guessed the words together.”
I'm sorry. I didn’t know that- Go Benz
Rice Porridge would have a long line.
Now, it’s so late.
It’s alright. My boat runs 24 hours.
Drive home safely, see you.
Later.
"Why someone like me
always cares for you?"
"Just not seeing you for a day."
"Why someone like me is so troubled?"
"Just seeing you with
someone who is not me."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
"So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown.”
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"Why someone like me misses you badly?"
"You just show up in
my heart every night."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
'So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown.”
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
"So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
I’d like to have a word with my friend.
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown."
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"I know nothing at all."
Give me the flash cards.
You want to tutor me now?
I never said I didn’t want to.
‘Fang Xin’, to trust.
‘Guan Xin’, to care.
‘Shang Xin’, meaning ‘sad’.
If you can’t memorize it,
just think about these two characters,
their roots are from the word ‘Human’.
Plus ‘Li’ means ‘Force’.
And this word ‘Xin’, which is ‘Heart’.
When these two combine, it’s like-
two people using force
against each other’s hearts,
which means ‘Sad’.
I don’t like it-
that you didn’t do as you said.
How so?
You said you were to be tutored.
I didn’t see you were.
Although I got distracted
from time to time,
but I really focused on it.
Words that I couldn’t translate,
I really practiced
Handwriting like you said,
right away.
Some words,
I wrote 30 times. My hand was sore.
If there’s something wrong,
you can tell me.
Don’t just stay quiet
and leave me hanging.
If you’re not okay with something,
like or dislike something,
you can tell me frankly.
I won’t call you stupid.
But if you really don’t want to tell me,
it's alright.
I'll try to be more observant.
And keep asking if you’re alright.
Is that okay?
You too.
Tell me everything.
About your study or not,
I can always listen.
I know that you're about to
be in a relationship. I get it.
But don’t give my time to others.
You too.
Don't give mine to others.
Okay.
How about Bas?
How’d it go?
Just like that.
Just like what?
Hey.
Knees touched.
How about you and Tarn?
How are things?
You haven’t told me.
Really?
You kissed?
Tell me.
C’mon.
How?
How do you think I did it?
What’s that smell?
Why does it smell so good?
It's still coconut scent as usual.
I'm off.
Bye-bye.
See ya.
Hey, Bas.
I'll help you with that.
Bye-bye!
- See you.
Is Bas your chauffeur?
Chauffeur, your ass.
Ma, hello.
Hello, dear.
I’ll be tutored here.
Make yourself at home, Oh-aew.
See? You're tutoring your friend now.
But you have to go back to study too.
Ma, I already got it, I don’t have to
practice my Mandarin Chinese anymore.
Okay, don’t change the subject.
You still need your last semester’s GPA.
Ma, I’ve been stressed for years.
Let me have my own school break.
I'll go to school next week.
Okay?
Okay.
You can do well, that, I know.
I'm just worried that you
won’t finish school. That’s all.
Since you've already got in
the faculty that you wanted.
Oh, I forgot.
Hoon left you this before going to work.
What is it?
He said it’s the gift for the
one who passed the exam.
You were complaining about having
a back pain to him, weren’t you?
What is it?
Here.
What?
A plane ticket?
Is this for real
Yes!
Don't forget to say thanks to Hoon.
Will I get to be on the plane?
What’s wrong?
Is it not good?
Yes, it is good. The sauce
smells great like it used to.
Well, I’ve been thinking-
about what you talked to Ma,
that you got in the
faculty that you wanted.
So I’ve been asking myself,
which are the 4 faculties I should choose,
after the admission exam.
Aren’t you gonna choose
Communication Arts for all 4 places?
The first two will be Communication Arts.
But the 3rd and 4th will have
to be Business Administration.
In case I have to go help
the resort business at home.
You wanna work on the resort?
I thought you only wanted
to get in performing arts.
I do.
But when my Dad asked if I could make it,
got scared.
But if you choose what you like,
you fight for it, and do it well,
both money and stability will follow.
You're well-rounded so you can choose.
It’s not like everyone
can do what you can.
I'm just a 12th grader. Why do I
need to hurry to choose my future?
Hey, calm down.
You still got time.
Take your time to think.
How about this-right now,
you just focus on studying,
and do your best on the exam,
get good score,
And then you’ll be able to
choose the faculty that you want in.
I'll help you.
Hello, yes?
Oh, yes.
From the Faculty of Communication Arts,
Anantasart University?
What’d they say?
I’m the first one on the waiting list?
Really?
And what do I have to do?
happy for you!
So, if one person relinquishes,
I get in right away, right?
Really?
I'll look forward to your call.
Thank you very much.
Teh! I’m the first
one on the waiting list!
I'm really happy for you!
Keep going!
I still have hope
Let’s go celebrate!
It's on me today!
Hey, wait, celebrate later.
Today, you’re to be tutored.
You still need to study.
call my Mom.
Here, I’m writing so big saying
‘Waiting-List Announcement Day’
Give me that.
“I’ll go first.”
And this day, I’ll be reporting myself
as a uni student in Bangkok first.
Let me color it, so it will be visible
even looking from Promthep Cape.
You use a pen with coconut scent?
Oh, of course.
A guy like me,
coconut scent's my signature.
You take it back now.
It’s freakin’ stinky.
Shit.
What? Coconuts smell great.
It makes you calm and relaxed.
My hair smells like coconut too.
Wanna smell it?
No!
NO!
No, don’t!
Bark, bark, bark.
Anyhow, you can’t just wait
for someone to relinquish.
C'mon, let’s start studying.
The vocab has like 5,000 characters?
How can I memorize them all?
No, you don’t have to.
The Chinese Proficiency
Test only needs HSK 4
That’s only 1,200 characters.
and you want to memorize the rest,
you do it later in case it's in the exam.
There are only 26 letters in English.
In Chinese, you have to
memorize it as a picture, a story.
One character is for one word,
one meaning.
Have you recited any vocab?
You’ve never?
Yes, I have.
But I don’t understand it.
See? Ugh.
There are lots of lines-
tangling.
How did you memorize it?
I practiced Chinese Handwriting every day.
Have you practiced at all?
Yes, I have.
But not this much.
Just seeing this makes my hand weary.
Ha!
First thing first, you have to practice
Chinese Handwriting every single day.
Practice until your brain absorbs it.
No matter how boring it is,
you gotta do it.
You know, I did it until I got used to it.
When I think of something
and doesn’t want to say it,
I take it out on writing
it in Chinese characters.
It helps me memorizing.
Why do you write this one the whole page?
'RIVAL'
I don’t know.
I don't remember.
You meant me?
What?
Hey!
Give it back!
You really meant me?
I'm getting it back now.
C’mon, let go!
Was it me?
What?
Where are you going?
Follow me.
Where to?
I'm gonna show you something.
Why are you bringing all the toys out?
No.
Here.
These are flash cards.
I carry them with me to recite every day.
1 set contains 20 characters.
All of this contains 1,200 characters.
I give them all to you.
Are you sure you’re giving me?
I’m afraid that I’ll get too
good if I keep these to myself.
Yeah, take them.
When you’re free,
you recite-or even while you eat.
But after the recision, you have to come
back and practice on Chinese Handwriting.
And that’s not enough.
Every time you see me,
we have to revise these characters.
And translate them,
and also work on pronunciation.
I guarantee you,
you’ll be able to memorize it.
If you don’t want it, it’s fine-
Hey! I do.
Well, you seemed to be not
responding. I thought you didn’t want it.
Well, I was just thinking-
It's no surprise why
you’re so good at studying.
I should take that compliment
from someone else.
Please help me until
I'm so glad.
Glad?
I don't know.
But I like it. Just keep saying that.
Please help me until
Too much.
I gave you many things already.
Can I ask you one thing?
What?
See? You look good from this side.
Show it, your nose bridge.
Was that an insult?
C'mon, keep doing it.
What's wrong with my front profile?
Smile?
Yes, like-hahahaha.
Right.
1-2-3.
'RIVAL'
'INTIMATE'
Today the royal carriage is a sidecar.
Are you posting on an Instagram Story?
Yeah!
What? You said it's for fun.
Let me see.
I looked terrible.
My head is like a ping-pong ball.
Don’t post it.
What makes you think that
you’ll look better without a helmet?
I'll post it.
It’ll be gone in 24 hours.
It’s good,
wind hitting your face like this.
During the end of the year,
when I ride, it’s very chilling.
Someone says if you’re holding
two hands up like this while speeding,
it’s like touching boobs.
What the hell?
Who told you that?
Mod said it. I don’t know.
And is it like that?
I don't know. Guess you gotta try.
What?
You’ve never?
No. Not yet.
oh.
Well, have you?
Don't tell anyone, okay?
I won’t.
Don’t, okay?
I won't!
Don't, alright?
I won’t. Tell me now!
I’m chaste!
HA.
What? And you?
Me?
For real?
Yeah.
For real?
Aha.
Never been this real
Yeah.
Chaste!
C'mon.
Does coconut smell good?
No, I hate it!
No. Stop it. It stinks.
Don’t!
It stinks!
Thanks for the ride.
Yeah, not a problem.
When you get home,
practice on the handwriting.
If you don't understand anything,
message me.
Bye.
Ride home safely.
I'm off.
Yeah, off you go.
Back safely.
Don't forget handwriting!
Yeah!
Bye-bye.
Go, go away! Go!
Shoo!
Add to Your Story
Today the royal carriage is a sidecar.
You're so tight-lipped.
I know you’re worried about him.
So pompous.
You scolded him yesterday.
And today, you tutored him, huh?
Well, I feel sorry for him.
He'll come to learn in the evening.
Oh, Teh.
Huh?
I'm gonna practice drawing this evening.
Do you want to come along?
But-
will you be back in time to tutor Oh-aew?
I can postpone.
Really?
go wherever you go.
Yeah.
Excellent.
I'll finish this.
Oh-
Your Hokkian Mee is so delicious.
If I knew it was this good,
I’d be having it a long time ago.
Can you make it?
Yes, I can.
Normally, if I make it,
I’ll put a hibiscus-l mean, lots of squids.
What hibiscus?
Squids.
Huh?
Squids.
Well, I heard hibiscus.
Hey!
Teh!
That's why you said hibiscus!
No, no, I’m sorry.
I accidentally saw it.
I'm sorry.
You took a peek at my boobies?
Shit.
Peeky peeky at my boobies?
No!
Stop! Stop!
I'm sorry.
Teh: Oh, you’ve arrived at my place?
Oh-aeW: Yeah, for a while. Are you done?
So, Oh-aew is at my place already.
Will you excuse me? I’ll go tutor him.
Oh, he came early.
Okay, I’ll see you later.
Keep drawing, k?
‘Teacher'
No!
‘Li Xiang’
it means ideal.
Oh, who could memorize it?
Look at these strokes. A lot of them.
How about this?
What does it mean?
Don’t know.
Don't know.
It's one kind of a weather-
How’s the weather today?
Hot.
No
Chilled.
No!
How about this?
'Da'
C'mon, think.
'De'
no.
Think, think, think.
I have no idea.
You didn’t prepare yourself,
I had to translate for you word by word.
You go home and then you’ll forget.
Tomorrow,
you’ll come back and forget again.
You have to memorize
the root of each word.
Take ‘Li Xiang’.
The root of it is ‘Xin’,
which means ‘Heart’.
So the words will be about
things involved what’s in your heart.
There are other words that contain ‘Xin’.
Like this word, ‘Fang Xin’ is to trust.
‘Dan Xin’ is to be worried.
‘Guan Xin’ is to care.
‘Xin Xin’ is to have faith.
‘Shang Xin’ is to be sad.
Ma.
Mao.
Means?
A cat.
Very good.
'Bang Zhu', means-
to help.
Yes!
Yes!
C'mon, think, think.
C'mon, hurry up, hurry up.
There’s a ‘Xin’, meaning a ‘Heart’.
What's the heart involved
Li Xiang, ideal.
Bravo!
Very good.
I'm so good at this, tutoring you.
Where else?
That's enough.
I don't wanna go home yet.
My brain is still working.
Wow, so enthusiastic.
You want to have jelly?
And we’ll continue guessing
the words at the restaurant.
Yeah. Yeah.
You want to?
I'll go change.
What for?
No one’s gonna look at you.
The whole crowd at the restaurant will.
Look at how handsome I am.
Hey! MoRaoYuLok!
Hey!
This is such a coincidence.
Phuket is a small town.
Oh, I forgot to tell you.
I invited them.
Sorry.
Oh?
When did you invite them?
Oh, after we finished tutoring.
I told Bas and he invited everyone.
But don’t worry.
I ordered extra red beans for you.
Guys, yesterday was freakin’ madness.
I was about to go eat with Karakade,
right?
And there was a car following,
with full beam on.
So, she was really angry.
She shouted,
‘What the fuck are you doing?’.
Wow, why so aggressive?
And what happened next?
It’s her Mom’s car!
Oh, what a pity!
My girlfriend, even sad still adorable.
You love showing her off, your Karakade.
Well, Karakade is adorable.
You never had any girlfriends.
How would you know?
What?
Leave me out of it,
Manao and I are still good.
I used to have a girlfriend
so leave me out of it too.
Hey, I used to have one too.
Teh's also seeing someone.
So there’s only you left, Oh.
Never got a girlfriend.
Never talked to any girls.
Never.
Well, I’ve never got anyone.
Never got a girl.
But I’ve never lost my virginity.
Chaste!
OH. MY. GOD.
Oh-aew: What’s wrong?
Teh: What?
Oh-aew: You seem upset.
I’m gonna go pee.
Teh!
What?
What’s wrong?
Did anyone do something wrong?
No, nothing.
I just thought that-
we were gonna come
here and guess the words.
And you invited all of
them so I got confused-
like, how are we gonna do it?
What?
\Ne can all guess together, it’s fine.
How will you focus then?
You’ll just play.
Okay.
Teh!
Is there anything else?
No.
you’ve just spread
the word about yourself.
You told me not to say
but you did it yourself.
About what?
About chaste?
Why? Everyone is my friends too.
Why couldn’t I tell them?
What?
Actually,
I don’t know what’s wrong with me.
But it’ll go away, never mind.
Teh,
you said you’re gonna take a week off,
why are you back so early?
Well, Imiss my friends.
Everyone is my friends.
Hey, guys.
I have something to ask.
Yeah?'
Are you guys virgins?
What?
I'm still a virgin.
Oh.
I just wanna tell you.
That’s it?
Satisfied?
Intimate
Intimate
I'm going home.
What?
See ya.
What’s wrong with you?
See ya.
Are you alright?
You can talk to us, you know.
Oh!
Wh-?
What are you doing here?
Why are you doing this?
What if other people see you?
The thing is I’ve got
something on my mind.
So I wanted to come see you right away.
What is it?
I-
Say it.
I don’t like it when-
you said everyone was your friends too.
Shit, it’s like-l don’t like that-
I thought it was like we’d
become close to each other again.
So, I feel-
equal to them.
Well, I don’t know how to explain.
Nevermind.
I thought it was something else.
Why are you thinking so much?
You're my closest friend.
Alright.
I guess that’s it.
You’re still not alright.
Just never mind.
It's not a big deal.
So you were upset-
that I told other people-
what I'd told you, right?
Alright, then.
I have a secret that
I’ve never told anyone.
But I will only tell you.
What is it?
I like Bas.
Shit!
Really?
For real?
What?
Shit!
Tell me!
How?
C’mon.
Hold on, I’m too shy to say
C'mon.
Well-
it was last semester, in all of a sudden,
Bas said to me,
"My way home goes pass the pier.
I can pick you up."
I was like, "Oh shit, it’s convenient.
Isn't that nice,
having someone pick you up."
And then, he really came.
After that,
we kinda had a moment in a car sometimes.
A-ha.
What?
Hey, it’s the last semester.
No.
I don't know what he thinks of me.
He seems to like girls.
And I don’t want to lose him as a friend.
I’ll help you.
How?
Well, I’ll find a way.
How about you?
Don’t be too distracted that
you can’t focus on your study.
The exam is coming.
You're good now, right?
I've been alright from the start.
Don't.
Been alright from the start?
You were having a long face.
Alright.
I have someone that I like too.
Oh, really, who? You never told me.
Her name is Tarn.
But we’re not a couple yet.
Just like-talking, you know?
I'll show you the pic.
Here.
Pretty?
go follow her.
Go get her! This drawing girl.
Of course, I will.
Can I ask you one thing?
What?
About what I told you,
keep it a secret.
'Secret'
Are your pants,
haven’t been worn for so long, tighter now?
No. I guess, I stay fit as always.
Boo!
Teh: Try to get closer to him.
Oh-aew: What for?
Teh: If he doesn’t move away,
he might like you.
'No.'
‘Why?’
Hey,
write your name down so it won’t get lost.
Oh-aew: Why would friends write
names on the sheet for each other?
Ugh.
Teh: A smart mouth online
but such a loser at the cafeteria.
It’s good now that you’re back
to take the extra class with us.
So you can tutor Oh as well.
Well, if you get less score than Phillip,
you gotta reconsider yourself.
Guys,
my girlfriend just got a new haircut.
Isn’t she pretty?
But wait, who’s that girl on the right?
I’ve never seen her before.
She’s kinda cute.
Shit, you wanna take a look?
Let me see.
Yeah, kinda cute.
But not as cute as my girl.
Do you want to know if Bas likes you?
Be observant.
What are you gonna do?
You'll see.
Guys.
Yeah?
Huh?
I’ll be hitting on Oh-aew.
You must be joking, right?
I'm being serious.
Just kidding.
Asshole.
Just a little joke, guys.
Oh.
Are you free on Sunday afternoon?
Let’s go tutoring.
Well
I'll let you know.
You can send me a message tonight.
So
on the way home with Bas today,
did you two kiss in the car?
Are you nuts?
But earlier in the car,
he was talking to me more than usual.
If he hadn’t turned on the radio,
he would’ve heard my heart beat so fast.
Oh, whatever.
How about you and Tarn?
Does your heart beat fast like this?
Every single time that I’m with her.
Whoa, that much?
Why?
Well,
because we’re still not a couple yet.
I get to go after her every day.
And each day, my heart pounds really fast.
One more thing is I really like seeing her
with so much effort, following her dream.
It’s like I’m surrounded by
the person with the same vibe.
How about you?
What do you like about Bas?
He’s handsome, alright?
Do you think I’m handsome too?
told you this before.
You’re good-looking just from the side.
Go tutoring with him.
Well, he’s not only handsome-
he’s also kind, very kind to me.
Although he seems quiet and not caring,
he’s a good listener.
And he always supports me.
When you were joking about hitting on me,
And Bas reacting that way
Do you think he thinks something of me?
Don’t you?
I think there’s a possibility.
If not, why would he avoid eye
contact when you looked at him?
You, go for it!
Then this Sunday,
can he come learn with us?
Guh, if he comes, you won’t get tutored.
You’ll only be looking at him.
But it’s up to you.
If you want him to tutor you, then go.
But you have to focus,
and not on his face.
Then, I should let you tutor me.
So, what’s the deal?
Do you want to change your mind?
Then, can I go with him?
But I promise you I will focus.
Please, please.
Please, please.
Oh.
Huh?
Try reading it into detail but just once,
so it will save you time.
Try.
Jia You. Go for it!
You can do it?
Huh?
Ok, ok alright?
Oh-aew: Okay,
I will keep my phone away now.
Teh.
Don't you have to go
tutoring Oh-aew today?
Well, I wanna see you.
Don't you want me to?
You're annoying.
Oh, really?
‘ILIUJIAI
Go on!
I know!
Okay, ready? 1-2-3.
Yang Rou, meaning lamb or mutton.
Right?
Excellent!
Baa-baa.
Well, it’s ‘sheep’.
"Oh-aew sent you a photo."
Oh-aew: Teh, he’s not moving away.
"After today, I’ll be with you
every afternoon. @tarntanoad"
Teh.
Really?
You're not that free.
That’s true.
But if I am, I will be here.
Shit.
Are you done?
I’m so tired.
Yes, it’s done. Here it is.
You drew this?
How was the tutoring yesterday?
Yesterday?
It went well, we used flash cards.
So..
Wanna guess the words
before Lao Shi comes?
What are you watching?
Wow.
Guys, should we find a quiet place to
practice doing the exam this weekend?
How about going to my resort?
Stay a night and wake up to swim!
Yeah, let’s do that.
Dive into water.
You’re so chill, Teh.
Already got accepted into
the university. Then teach us!
How could you manage to
memorize all 1,200 characters?
You have to practice with
Chinese Handwriting a lot.
How about this-
Days that I don’t have to spend with Tarn,
I’ll make you guys flash cards.
Wow.
Want some?
Kai.
Phillip.
Mod.
Bas.
Want some?
So you can recite during the day.
Excellent.
I’m so lucky.
So many good things happened today.
You're so kind to us.
I'm going to the restroom.
Alright.
Hey, don’t forget to make us the cards.
Right, of course.
See you.
Later.
"Haven’t guessed the words together."
"Haven’t guessed the words together.”
I'm sorry. I didn’t know that- Go Benz
Rice Porridge would have a long line.
Now, it’s so late.
It’s alright. My boat runs 24 hours.
Drive home safely, see you.
Later.
"Why someone like me
always cares for you?"
"Just not seeing you for a day."
"Why someone like me is so troubled?"
"Just seeing you with
someone who is not me."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
"So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown.”
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"Why someone like me misses you badly?"
"You just show up in
my heart every night."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
'So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown.”
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"Never know."
"Never ask."
"So unsure what it is."
"What I know is that I
don't want to lose you."
"I can just ask,
but my heart ain't told me why."
I’d like to have a word with my friend.
"That we're together before
was because I'd loved you?"
"Unknown."
"That is what my heart has known.”
"Only know my heart can't hold on.”
"Can't take it.”
"When it's about you,
I know nothing at all."
"I know nothing at all."
Give me the flash cards.
You want to tutor me now?
I never said I didn’t want to.
‘Fang Xin’, to trust.
‘Guan Xin’, to care.
‘Shang Xin’, meaning ‘sad’.
If you can’t memorize it,
just think about these two characters,
their roots are from the word ‘Human’.
Plus ‘Li’ means ‘Force’.
And this word ‘Xin’, which is ‘Heart’.
When these two combine, it’s like-
two people using force
against each other’s hearts,
which means ‘Sad’.
I don’t like it-
that you didn’t do as you said.
How so?
You said you were to be tutored.
I didn’t see you were.
Although I got distracted
from time to time,
but I really focused on it.
Words that I couldn’t translate,
I really practiced
Handwriting like you said,
right away.
Some words,
I wrote 30 times. My hand was sore.
If there’s something wrong,
you can tell me.
Don’t just stay quiet
and leave me hanging.
If you’re not okay with something,
like or dislike something,
you can tell me frankly.
I won’t call you stupid.
But if you really don’t want to tell me,
it's alright.
I'll try to be more observant.
And keep asking if you’re alright.
Is that okay?
You too.
Tell me everything.
About your study or not,
I can always listen.
I know that you're about to
be in a relationship. I get it.
But don’t give my time to others.
You too.
Don't give mine to others.
Okay.
How about Bas?
How’d it go?
Just like that.
Just like what?
Hey.
Knees touched.
How about you and Tarn?
How are things?
You haven’t told me.
Really?
You kissed?
Tell me.
C’mon.
How?
How do you think I did it?
What’s that smell?
Why does it smell so good?
It's still coconut scent as usual.
