Ooh!

This turned out nice.

Hello, Dom?

What time will you be home?

Okay. See you in two hours.

Drive safely.

Okay. Love you.

Mommy!

Okay, Diana.

Should we make Daddy a birthday cake together?

Yes, we should!

Well then. Here's your job.

Mix them for me.

Okay!

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday - Happy birthday

- Happy birthday - Happy birthday

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

Wow!

I have a secret to tell you.

Diana helped

make your cake.

Really?

Wow, you're the best.

Happy birthday, Daddy.

Thank you so much.

Happy birthday. I love you.

Thank you. I love you too.

Hurry up and make a wish.

I want to eat the cake already!

I nearly blew out the candle.

I wish for us

to be a happy family like this

forever.

Can I blow out the candle?

Diana!

Shouldn't the birthday person be the one to blow out the candles?

You can do it if you really want to.

Is there anything I can't give you?

Yay!

Lots of saliva, please.

- Yay! - Happy birthday to you.

Thank you!

- Let's take some photos. - Right.

All right.

One, two, three!

Dom and I have been married for seven years now, Aoy, Chod.

I used to work as a flight attendant.

Then I resigned so I could raise my daughter.

Dom is a pilot.

We're a small, happy family

thanks to our daughter, Diana.

She's like a golden chain that links our hearts together.

And I didn't expect for our family's happiness to be ruined.

Ah, Muji!

Hello, Dew!

Have you seen Diana?

I haven't!

Excuse me, Teacher?

Have you seen Diana?

There's a car crash in front of the school!

Did any students get hurt?

I'm not sure!

Hurry!

Diana!

Diana!

Mommy!

Diana!

- Diana! - Mommy!

Where have you been?

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

I'm okay.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm all right.

Are you okay?

Yes.

I'm okay.

There was an accident at the front of the school.

So the kids went out to have a look.

I spotted them and brought them back.

Don't bring your friend out to the front like that again, okay?

It's dangerous. Do you understand?

Yes, Mommy.

Well done.

Mommy, this is my new friend. Her name is Kamyui.

That explains why I've never seen you before.

Kamyui, is it? What a lovely name.

Hm.

These two girls are quite similar, actually.

Are they?

I don't see any similarities.

Diana's a lot cuter.

Have you said hi to her, Kamyui?

Hello.

Hello, Kamyui.

I'm Gail.

Anyway, please look after Kamyui.

We recently moved to Bangkok.

Just the two of us.

Oh, of course.

I'm Dew.

It's nice to meet you.

Kamyui, this is your first time in Bangkok, isn't it?

Don't worry. Diana will show you around.

I'll show you around.

Diana, what sound does a Pikachu make?

Pikachu!

Aw!

Diana?

Diana!

Diana!

Diana!

Dew?

Dew, are you okay?

Dew?

Dom.

You're having a panic attack again?

Today,

when I heard...

a student was in a car accident,

I was worried it might've been Diana.

And...

then I had a flashback.

I have never been able to forgive myself.

- Dom! - There, there.

You can forgive yourself now.

It was only an accident.

You and Diana are safe now.

It's in the past now.

Come on.

Let's do it this way.

If you're not feeling okay,

I'll drop off and pick up Diana from school tomorrow.

It's my day off. No flights.

And you'll be able to rest.

Or maybe you should go see your psychiatrist again?

It's been a long time now.

You should be better by now.

Maybe we should change psychiatrists?

Dom?

I'm sorry

I am not at my best.

I didn't mean that.

I just want you to finally feel better.

I'll get better soon, okay?

All right?

I'm sorry.

I'll get better soon.

I've actually been

doing much better.

Don't worry.

Okay.

I'll go and wash my face.

- Daddy! - Kam?

Why are you here?

Mommy had me change schools.

I've missed you so much.

Are you here to pick me up?

Come with me, Kam.

Diana!

Mommy told me to come and look after you.

Let's wait for her out front.

What about Kamyui? I saw her go this way.

Really? I didn't see anything.

She might be waiting downstairs.

- Let's wait out front. - Okay.

Gail, can I go and play with my friends?

Hey!

Here. Look at this.

Hello?

Why are you here?

I just had Kamyui transferred to this school.

I didn't know your daughter goes here too.

It wasn't intentional.

But don't worry.

I'll help you.

No one's going to find out about us.

But now that it's come to this, what should we do?

Hold on a second.

Is that your wife calling?

It's okay. I can wait.

Hello?

Are you with Diana?

You haven't texted me yet.

Is the traffic bad? Have you found her?

One second. I'm on an urgent call with work right now.

Oh? But Diana might be waiting for you.

I already told her teacher.

Which one?

Miss... uh.

I forgot to ask her name.

Okay.

Well then. Text me once you're with her.

Okay. I have to go.

Hello?

So?

Let's do it this way. Leave her with a teacher.

Then come and pick our daughter up.

But you're already with Kam.

She misses you.

Can you drop her off at home?

I want her to spend time with you.

I'll send you the location of the house I'm renting.

There's a key in her backpack.

Don't worry about Diana.

I'll handle it.

Hold on.

What are you going to do?

I told her mom she's with a teacher.

Okay.

Are we going, Daddy?

Are you going to drive me home?

That's right.

- There you are, Diana. - Mommy!

- Hi, Gail. - Hi.

Thank you so much for dropping Diana off.

Something urgent came up with her father's work.

We got lucky you ran into Diana and called us.

I'm sorry for the bother.

Not at all.

It's the least I could do.

It's no trouble.

Has Kamyui gone home with her dad?

Oh, that's right.

He surprised her at school.

She was so happy.

He doesn't have much free time.

That's so nice.

Okay. Make yourself at home. Have a seat.

I'll bring you some water.

Go and get changed. You're so sweaty!

Hello? Have you left my place?

Your wife insisted I sit down and rest for a bit.

I tried to turn her down.

But she insisted.

Gail, hurry up and leave.

Gee, aren't you going to thank me at all?

I dropped your other daughter at home after all.

Hurry up and leave if there's nothing else.

I need to talk to you.

Sure.

I have to go. Your wife might overhear me.

Here you are.

Your family looks like

the perfect family.

I'm so jealous.

Thank you.

But before we managed to take such a happy family photo,

we went through a lot.

How come?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't really pry.

Oh, it's okay.

I'm happy to talk about it.

Well...

Before I had Diana,

I was pregnant before.

But...

Dew?

Dew!

Dew, what happened?

Are you hurt?

Can you get up?

Dew?

Are you okay?

- Huh? Dew! - Dom!

- Our baby! - Dew!

Our baby!

- Calm down! - Dom! Blood!

It's okay!

- Dom, what should we do? - Calm down.

- I'm bleeding! Our baby! - Calm down.

Hello? Please send an ambulance now!

- Calm down. - What about our baby?

Our baby!

- Is our baby going to be okay, Dom? - It'll be okay.

- Our baby, Dom! - Calm down.

The ambulance is coming!

Our baby!

What should we do?

It's difficult for me to conceive.

When that happened,

I felt hopeless.

And I just couldn't stop thinking

that it was my fault

for not taking better care of myself.

And after that...

I got depressed.

But then,

Diana came along.

Everything sounds like it's going great, doesn't it?

But it got worse.

I got postpartum depression.

So my condition got even worse.

Dom was working all the time.

So I had to take care of Diana alone.

But it's not Dom's fault.

He had to work that hard

because he had to look after us both.

And...

something happened again.

It made my panic attacks more frequent.

Diana!

That explains

why it flared up that day.

I feel for you.

Thank you.

Actually,

Dom wants a son.

But I'm scared.

I'm scared that if I get postpartum depression again,

it will be even worse.

So I don't know

when I'll be ready to give him a son.

Gail,

where were you? Why did you come home so late?

Didn't you leave my house a long time ago?

I'm sorry. The traffic was really bad.

And I'm still not used to driving in Bangkok.

Where's Kamyui?

She's sleeping in her room.

Thank you so much for looking after her.

She was so happy to see you.

And I'm as happy as she is.

So why did you let her go to school here? What do you want?

Do you really not believe me?

I didn't know Diana goes to the same school.

Gail, please.

Move back to Chiang Mai.

No.

I want Kamyui to have a good social life

and good connections

like other kids.

If you can give them to Diana,

why can't Kamyui have the same?

Or do you not think of her as your daughter?

I didn't say that.

Then please don't send us away.

We get to be close to each other now.

It'll be easy for you to visit her too.

Please? I promise there won't be a problem for you.

I saved up money

so I could send her to a good school here.

I've been doing everything for her.

Please, Dom.

I've really stressed you out, haven't I?

I guess I should take responsibility then.

Let me make you feel better.

Dom.

Oh? You're still up?

I was worried about you.

You sounded so stressed on the phone today.

There must've been a lot of problems at work.

How did it go? Have things gotten better now?

I'm sorry

for not feeling well

and not being able to pick up Diana.

I caused you trouble,

and you were distracted from work.

But luckily,

Gail helped look after Diana for us.

She seems like a lovely person.

More importantly, Diana seems to be very close to Kamyui.

She's very fond of this new friend of hers.

I should take a shower.

Someone's calling you. I don't know who it is.

But it must be important. It's very late.

Oh, it's work.

Same problem. I guess they haven't solved it.

I'll go outside and talk.

Sure.

What now? Why did you call at this hour?

Daddy, where are you?

Uh, I'm working.

I miss you so much!

I miss you too.

You've been a good girl, haven't you?

Yes.

It's late. Be a good girl and go to bed, okay?

I'll visit you often.

Okay, Daddy.

Well done.

Is Mommy there?

Can I talk to her?

Yes, Dom?

She woke up and didn't see you.

So she threw a tantrum.

I'm sorry.

I'll tell her not to call you like this again.

She got to see you after not seeing you for ages.

Hence the tantrum.

She'll get better if she gets to see you often.

Okay.

I have to go to bed if there's nothing else.

Okay, Dom.

Well done.

Keep doing this

and Daddy will visit you often.

I'll make him love you the most.

No less than anyone else.

Just you wait.

Good job.

The girls got close quite quickly.

That's true.

There must be some similarities like you said.

Right?

It's probably because they're both only children.

And when are you going to give Diana a younger sibling?

She's probably quite lonely.

Huh? Actually,

is it true that antidepressants cause problems,

especially about that matter?

I have a friend who's going through the same thing.

But don't worry.

You can tell me anything.

I know a doctor who's good at parental planning.

I can give you the details if you're interested.

Thank you.

But I'd rather not.

Let me know if you change your mind.

Excuse me. I have to go and call my husband.

Sure.

Hello, Dom?

Yes.

I'm calling to check if tonight's Valentine's dinner is still a go.

Sure.

I'll prepare dinner.

See you at home.

Okay. Bye.

Gee, that's nice. You're having Valentine's dinner.

Dom's a very festive person.

No matter how busy he is,

he always finds time for me.

By the way, does your husband have any surprises planned for tonight?

I wonder.

I've been waiting as well.

Maybe I should give him a surprise instead?

Diana.

It's time to go home.

- Hello. - Hi there.

All right. It's time to go home.

Okay. We have to go now.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Bye, Gail.

- Bye, Kamyui! - Bye! See you later!

Let's go.

Bye!

Give it a once-over before people start arriving.

You can go now.

- You're checking in? - Yes.

I'm wondering if you're free right now.

I mean the rooms.

Happy Valentine's in advance.

In advance?

Does that mean you're not spending it with me?

You're going to leave now?

We've talked about this, Gail.

I have to be with my wife on public holidays

so she won't suspect me.

You could use work as an excuse.

I want to spend a holiday with you sometimes too.

Why are we talking about this again?

I've given you a lot of time.

I've been lying to my wife to be with you.

I was with you even when she was giving birth.

It's because your wife won't sleep with you!

That's why you had to come to me!

Who would want to come if you keep being upset?

I visit you because of our daughter.

Things wouldn't have turned out like this if I hadn't screwed up.

Are you saying our daughter is a mistake to you?

How could you say that?

That's right! I didn't mean for things to turn out this way!

She's not a mistake! It's you!

I shouldn't have run into you.

I've been trying my best to look after you both.

I've given you time and supported you financially.

I'm almost out of savings.

I'm about to reach my limit.

You might end up with nothing if you keep demanding things.

Dom!

Dom.

I'm sorry.

I just want to spend Valentine's with you.

I just want to feel...

like I'm still important to you.

And lately,

Kamyui's been throwing a lot of tantrums.

It's stressful having to handle it alone.

I'm sorry, Dom.

Please forgive me.

I love you.

I understand how you feel.

But I really have to go now.

I'm sorry I haven't had time to visit Kamyui.

I'll transfer money to cover this month's expenses.

Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you for taking good care of me and Kamyui.

Without you,

I don't know how Kamyui and I are going to survive.

I have to go now.

Here's your tuna sandwich.

- Eat it all up, okay? - Okay.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Is it good? I made your favorite.

Delicious as usual. Thank you very much.

And Diana? Has she gone to bed?

She has.

She must've been tired. She was playing with Kamyui all day.

Excuse me.

Hello. I'm having dinner with my wife right now.

I'll call you back.

Mommy!

Kamyui's having an allergic reaction to eggs.

I didn't know the sandwich I bought had eggs in it.

She's very allergic.

Please hurry up and come over!

Um, thank you very much.

Dew, I'm really sorry.

Something urgent came up.

There's a problem at work again?

Dom,

just go. I understand.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

Hurry up.

I'm really sorry, Dom.

I didn't know the sandwich I bought

had eggs in it.

I'm sorry.

Good thing she's fine.

But you have to be more careful next time.

I will.

I'm sorry.

I was so shocked earlier.

I was worried something might happen to her.

This happened when she was alone with me once.

I was worried I might not be able to save her in time.

It would be so nice

if you were with us every time something like this happened.

How did it go? Is work all right?

You must be exhausted.

Thank you so much

for working so hard for me and Diana.

Thank you.

Mommy, can I call Kamyui?

Please?

You miss each other that much?

Yes!

All right. I'll ring Gail.

Yay!

Aw!

Hello, Gail?

Diana wants to talk to Kamyui.

We're at the hospital right now.

Kamyui had an allergic reaction to eggs last night.

- Oh? Is she all right? - What's the matter?

She's fine.

She's safe now.

Well then. Is it okay if we visit Kamyui?

Of course.

Okay. We'll see you later.

- I'll send you the location. - Sure.

See you then. Bye.

Kamyui's sick.

Go and get ready.

Let's visit her.

Yay! I'll get ready!

Be careful. Don't run.

Oh? How come there's something white in the hamper?

[Parking Ticket]

Hello. I'm having dinner with my wife right now.

I'll call you back.

Dew, I'm really sorry.

Something urgent came up.

[Parking Ticket]

Infidelity always will disrupt a family.

Do you have a flight?

Isn't your schedule free today?

My coworker called in sick, so I have to cover for them.

Do you mind checking

why the owner of this car

came here last night?

I haven't had the chance to get to know Kamyui's dad.

What does he do for work?

Your condition hasn't gotten better?

Is that why you've been acting weird lately?

Dew? I asked you what's wrong.

Our baby!

- It's okay. - Is our baby going to be okay?

Our baby!

Okay. Cut!

Well done.

It's been a lot today.

I didn't expect it to be this dramatic.

Things wouldn't have turned out like this if I hadn't screwed up.

The box broke.

- Where did you throw it at? - Her grip wasn't good enough.

I picked it up with my left.

It would've been better if I'd used my right.

Of course.
