During the school vacation, Fak didn’t have any work to attend , so he
looked for a hired job, and he was being hired by the households to do some weird
jobs. One day, M’am Songsom was so angry and took off her sarong so Fak was
about to tell her to put it on. Suddenly, the villager came and saw thewhat was
happening, and they all stop hiring Fak. So he was left alone with no works and
he couldn’t go on with his life. He couldn’t sleep and become thinner and
thinner.
In the New Year day, people came to
make a merit, they bring food to the monk, and listening to the chanting. M’am
Somsong made a trouble to herself again and got hit by Song for not showing the
respect to his ancestor. No matter how hard he tried to tell everybody that he
has never once slept together with her, but no one believed him. Everyone would
let Fak kept attend and great care of his big lady and that made him even emptier
because he’s not allowed to participate in any activity that happened in the
village. When the school reopened, Fak got back to his life with his work.
There’s a dog behind the school and people suspected that it was a road dog and
it might bite one of the students, so the school owner decided to let Fak
killed the mad dog. This was the first time that Fak broke one of the 5 rules
of being a good person. He has killed that dog although he wasn’t even sure that
it was a mad dog. Fak felt sorry for what he did.
Now Fak would like to make a funeral
for his dad, and decided to borrow the headmaster money from him. Then, he went
to Uncle Khai house to inform him and hire him to help manage the funeral ceremony.
Unexpected thing occurred. Uncle Khai believed what Fak said about M’am Somsong
that they never have an affair with each other. However, Fak didn’t trust him
because Uncle Khai easily believed of what he said or maybe Uncle Khai wanted
to make a lot of money. Fak thought that Uncle Khai might have cheated him. Fak
spread the invitation around the village, but no one said anything. That’s
evening during the funeral, no one came and that’s really disappointed Fak. He
even felt sorry for his dad soul. That night, Uncle Khai introduced Fak to the
rice wine which would make Fak forgot all about his depression. It is also weird
because, later his only friend
introduced Fak to alcoholism which an mean to help him release from stress.
However, this leads Fak to his dead. Alcohol give him more pleasure and make
Fak to gain more confidence. Fak could easily fell asleep and alcohol helped erase
all the suffering. He even considered the alcohol to be his best friend, and
every time he would go to Uncle Khai house for a chat. He got addicted to
alcohol and every time he would increase the amount until his desire for alcohol
increase that the villagers criticized him and couldn’t believe that the young Fak
would end up becoming addicted to alcohol.
