The Judgement page 1-50

   The story start in a small village far away form the town. A man name Fak begin to lose his reputation, because of the peanuts seller, Lamai was her name.And there was a rumor that Fak still his father wife. The rumor make him look bad and almost everyone in the village know. Fak used to have a good manner for his hard working and proper behavior. As a young novice, people would enjoy his chanting and he had fulfilled their expectation. However, he disrobed.There’s irony on the setting of this situation. Fak began to lose his reputation the day of the abbot anniversary inside the temple, and the temple has been known by the Thai society that it’s supposed to be a holy place where people come to make worship during ceremony. People always become refresh when they come to make a merit in the temple. However, for Fak, he received the bad achievement and his reputation begins to decline. Fak’s mother died since birth, so he lived all alone with his dad in the temple until they built a hut behind the temple when his dad received a full time employment as a school janitor. However, in the end of that year before New Year, Fak’s father died and there’s a rumor about lust and young wife, so he has to keep Somsong with him and inherited his dad work. Madame Somsong is insane and mentally ill and that’s really upset Fak because she always brings him trouble. Fak truly afraid of criticism and judgment by the society, even his friends and old monk rejected to talk and associate with him. Therefore, work was the only thing that would relieve Fak from those nightmares. He was completely isolated. However, he still had one respectful person which is the headmaster whom Fak kept the deposit of his salary with him. Firstly, he was afraid of geeting scold. Everyone in the village would be blamed him of kicking her out like an old hag once he’d slept with her. Then, he still worried and care for Madame Somsong whether how could she lived after he kick her out. He must show some care and concern about her.
