Happy birthday, Night.

Am I the first person to wish you a happy birthday?

Of course.

You're the first

and probably the only person who will call me.

You complain about being single,

but you won't find yourself a lover.

No, thanks.

I'm happy being with you, Aunt.

If I were to find a lover,

that person would have to love me

and you.

Stop it.

I don't want to talk about it.

I have to go. Happy birthday again.

Bye.

Bye.

Hey, you.

Make me a drink.

I'm sorry,

but we are closed.

What a shame.

But I'm already here.

Plus, I just got off a plane.

A cold drink would be perfect.

Thailand is so hot.

Fix me a drink, will you?

Please.

Well...

What's your name?

Night.

Please make me a drink, Night.

Please.

I...

Why are you so slow?

Does this belong to someone?

If not, can I drink it?

Wait.

Hey.

Wow.

That's nice.

You are better

than the bartenders in L.A.

Thank you.

But I'm not all that.

Hey.

Does this drink have a name?

So I know what to order next time.

I'm inventing a new drink.

But you stole the drink before I could taste it.

So I don't know if it's good enough

to put on the menu.

It's Irene.

What?

That's my name, Irene.

Since I'm the first person to taste this drink,

you can name the drink after me.

I won't charge you.

Okay, sure.

Hey.

Wow.

Close the bar quickly and come home to eat your birthday cake.

I...

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...

What's the word?

S...

Snoop.

Yes.

I didn't mean to look.

Is it your birthday today?

Yes.

Happy birthday, Night.

I don't have a gift for you,

so I'll give you a kiss instead.

Thanks.

You are quite a friendly person.

Are you calling me nosy?

No.

Your Thai suddenly became so fluent.

I meant you are acting like

we've been close friends for a long time.

We've known each other for 30 minutes.

It's considered a long time.

Some people start dating by then.

Now that we're here, can you make me another drink?

Let's celebrate your birthday.

Please.

- Fine. - Wait.

A peck on the cheek and a kiss on the hand are your birthday gifts

from me because you're too adorable.

Don't wipe it off.

It's my gift to you.

Okay.

You are clumsy, aren't you?

How cute.

I don't know why I feel this tipsy.

It's probably because I haven't eaten a meal since I landed.

I only had two drinks.

I see.

Are you sure you can get home by yourself?

Certainly.

Here's my ride.

I'll help you.

I'll get going then.

Bye.

You smell nice.

- I'm leaving. - Okay.

Goodnight.

Bye.

Irene.

Listen.

I've decided to tag along with you.

I'll send you home.

Aoy and Chod,

it's funny how we always find love when we don't want it.

In fact, this love is not strange at all.

We are just two women who happened to meet,

click,

and fall in love.

Why do Irene and I

have to face obstacles and constantly prove ourselves

just because we're women?

Unlike typical relationships between men and women,

where love alone is enough.

No one interferes like they do in our relationship.

This world is so unfair, Aoy and Chod.

Even if the whole world tries to show open-mindedness and acceptance,

in the end, there are still people who won't truly accept us.

Especially when this type of relationship

involves their family members.

Hello.

Where are you now? I'm waiting for you.

I'm on my way, honey.

I'm not your honey.

We're just casually sleeping together.

Don't call me that again.

I can be whatever you want me to be

as long as I get to be close to you, Faye.

Where did you follow Irene to? You came back so late.

To a bar.

She partied as soon as she landed.

You know what's funny?

The bar owner happens to be

my ex-girlfriend.

Really?

I'm not surprised though.

You've dated a lot of women.

She's bound to run into one of them.

Have you thought of using your ex-girlfriend?

I guess you ended things on bad terms.

Come on, it's for both of our benefits.

Can we stop talking?

There's something else I'd rather do.

You're impatient when it comes to this.

Irene.

Where were you last night?

Your flight landed at 11 p.m.

You should have arrived home before 1 a.m.

You came home at dawn. Where did you go?

Is this how you greet your daughter, whom you haven't seen in a while?

Do you ever care about me?

"Are you jet-lagged? Have you eaten?"

Do you know how to say those words?

You don't care

whether or not I'm concerned about you.

You only care about money.

If you dragged me back so we could fight,

I might as well go back to L.A. It's annoying.

I dragged you back so you could start working.

Stop being silly and wasting my money away.

You're old enough to know better.

Aren't you afraid I'll ruin your company?

You are a smart girl.

You always succeed once you set your mind

on something.

But you just refuse to do so.

You know why I'm like that, don't you?

Because you have your father's filthy blood.

Mom!

Don't talk about him like that.

He's a good man.

Is that so?

Do you call someone who abandoned his wife and child a good man?

Irene.

Rumor has it you did drugs when you were abroad.

It's true, isn't it?

Think what you want.

You won't believe anything I say anyway

because, in your eyes, I'm a horrible person.

Why didn't Dad take me with him?

Where's my bracelet?

Thank you very much for your help.

You owe me six months' rent totaling 180,000 baht,

not including this month's rent of an additional 30,000 baht.

You have until the end of the month.
