this was a tough ep to sit through, i don't get Mut moseying around with Meena, when he knows that pathetic excuse for a grandfather is stalking that child. especially after he had already accosted them on a prior occasion. why chance it?!? & this time that f*cker didn't just send thugs to hurt Mut, they wanted to kidnap Meena!!! this fact became irrelevant the sec Mut got hurt. **********************************************************************************************************************************& was right that this family doesn't communicate - each is funding that disgusting man just so he will say away from the others in that family & he is playing them all. ***********************************************************************************************now if they communicated maybe the mother would stop funding the disgusting man, she married & that would prevent her kids & grandchild from living in terror of him. they for sure would not be rewarding his threatening behavior by giving him buckets loads of cash. **************************************************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************& even though i am Very thankful that Rak's father got punched more then once, his comeuppance isn't all that, as the mother is gonna keep funding him. only the well that was his son & maybe his daughter have dried up - still doesn't mean he gonna be destitute. but something better then nothing, at least he not getting away with murder like the mother in The Boy Next World.

everyone is trying to deal with that "father" alone, Mut should've told Rak about the meeting with the father! & even before that Rak & his sister should've had a meeting with their mother & they should've tried to solve the problem that is Jak - together! the only thing they do is send him money in the hopes he goes away. but a money hungry f*cker like him will never have enough(!) he will bleed them dry & still come back for more. so it aint shocking that he is using their want to safeguard each other, against them. ************************************************************************************************************btw Mut is a moron for standing around with that child, hearing out the "grandfather" let alone taking her to a coffee shop & giving him more of a chance to poison her mind & hurt her soul. he should've legged it at the school parking lot, his job was to keep her safe & away from her grandfather. he failed at both - if anything he added to her guilt by letting her listen to that snake. she shouldn't have to deal with all this mess. the adults needed to come together to solve this sh*t ASAP. ****************& cause they r not - he is running wild. even endangering people, all for money. even if Prin hadn't incentivized him he would have been there trying to harass his "family" as they r the only source for his income. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i feel bad & sad for Rak, but this problem isn't going to ever go away - what is he gonna do? until Jak die's he will come back again & again for more. that is what people like him do. i get Rak is terrified but he needs to find a solution to this problem. heck Vivi doesn't seem like a pushover & is a good friend, maybe she can give him some advise that will put an end to this nightmare Rak & his family r living through hell, cause his mother fell for the wrong man.

idk how Rak just sat there & took it, Prin eviscerated him with her words. there is NO come back from that - ur only option is to go mental & bash her head in. well, that or just take it - the picture she painted, so much info, damage & trauma Rak lived through & she used every hurtful memory/experience to slash at his soul. u can't just brush that sh*t off & move on. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************& i am curios as to why he is still this terrified of his father, he has had enough time to grow & isn't the child he used to be, still he this terrified of a phone call?!? what he gonna do when they come face to face?!????

so Mut's big plan is making Rak fall in-love with him, so he they will marry, like it went with his bff Khom & how he ended up with Conner??! well i guess that is also a plan - still toxic & not healthy. but at least this way Rak wont have to worry he gonna get used & then tossed aside, once his money runs out. which i am getting wont happen anytime soon, as he (his mother) is loaded. still doesn't mean Mut can't turn into his father & history won't repeat itself - worrisome if u ask me. that's why found it ironic that Khom was worried about Mut, cause Rak doesn't believe in love. like plz ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also what is the "grandfather's" deal - why he stalking his grandchild?!? he didn't give 2 sh*t's about his children & from what i got his wife gave him money to stay away. even if he has run out of it all, isn't contacting her a better option to get more?! am sure she would give him what he wants, just to keep him away from her life - let alone her children's, no?!? **************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i didn't like the whole inner thoughts of a 10 yr old child. that not cute of funny & i don't give 2 sh*ts that girls age faster or all that crap... she is STILL a child! i don't need her appreciating a grown mans looks! what the f*ck were the writer & director thinking even adding those sh*t lines?!? it was needed why?!?? that cute? to whom?!??

what u need to be a genius to get that Rak needed space?!? but nah Mut needed to make it about himself & when Rak logically lashed out, he got to play the aggrieved party. as if Rak not got enough on his plate, he now got to feel guilty that he was rude to an innocent bystander - who really isn't that innocent. cause anyone watching that scene unfold, would know that Rak needed to be alone to deal with his emotion's. but now he the bad-guy for hurting a concerned Mut's feelings - miss me with this sh*t. this gaslighting & manipulation 101 - ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also the shopping for clothes scene, sorry but if ur selling urself to a rich person & they have an image to maintain, they can't have their partner be looking like a slob. u dress for the job. same here, Mut is getting paid for his services & he should look the part. he's getting a free wardrobe upgrade, why make a big deal about it? oh, yeah to pluck at Rak's heartstring's - selling the love angel? yeah i get it - sadly Rak is falling hook line and sinker. *******************************************************************Prin might be a sh*t-talker, but she hit the nail on the head & that is why it hurt Rak so much. pity he brushed off her warning & didn't think better of the arrangement he has with Mut, cause logically this doesn't end well for him.

ifind it ironic that Rak is following in his mother's footsteps & everyone (in the comment section) is cheering him on. Mut keeps accepting payment (if i aint wrong, he has accepted too date around 140 thousand baht, that Not chump change) & then talks about love... sorry what?!? i genuinely feel bad for Rak, he is broken cause of his father & childhood, this is the only way he knows love. this sad & toxic. no matter how much money he's got, the fact u gotta pay someone to be with u, how u know they will be around when u truly need them? what happens when u aint got no more money to fund ur toy-boy? what happens when someone wealthier comes around?!? this whole romance is a recipe for disaster, where Rak is the one whos gonna be left bloody a broken. Mut - even if he gets tossed to the curb, will have all the money he has earned, to keep him warm. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************the whole scene with Khaimuk was beyond moronic, is she stupid?!? or oblivious to the fact she is too late to worry about who Mut is & if he is trust worthy. if she wanted to act like Rak's nanny & bodyguard she should've followed him to the island & made sure no money hungry, opportunist would take advantage of him from the start. now it is too late! ************************& sorry but i can't stomach Khaimuk's cutesy way of talking, she is getting on my nerves so much so i just skipped all scenes with her - the fact she made Mut sign a contact is too little too late IMO but we will see... *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i find reading the comments hilarious - like is everyone serious, the fact Mut acting the aggrieved party if freakin hypocritical. dude has put a price of everything since the 1st sec he met Rak. now he's acting like a wounded puppy cause Rak is jaded (cause of his childhood) & wont play along with the love game. but he still keeps accepting payment & Rak the bad-guy?!? i get u need to shut-off ur brain to enjoy this, but people bordering on brain dead - sorry not sorry. ********************************************& another thing, the one that is in-love & will fall harder is Rak - the fact he is protesting verbally means sh*t - he is so desperate for love he has bought someone, someone that keeps mentioning how expensive his services r (from the start), someone that NEVER rejects a payment. *******************************************************************************************Mut is just a great snake oil sales man & as someone who had to look after themselves since 15, i get him being this calculating. but i don't trust him cause of this & neither should Rak!

ugh idk how i feel about how this plot is unfolding. as is this starts off with Rak's moronic sister calling him to inform him, that their money-hungry father was stalking her child, cause he is searching for ways to get more money out of them - am guessing. & idk why she called someone she herself pointed out was even more terrified of their father, then she way. if so, what was the point? why not figure out sh*t alone?!? find a way to safeguard ur own child? from the looks of things, they got money so heir bodyguards... *************************************************************************************************************************& if that foreshadowing wasn't enough, Rak tells Mut about his parents transactional marriage & how that turned out, only for Mut to turn around & offer him more of the same?!? offering love with a price tag - sorry, but what kinda toxic sh*t is this??! & sadly Rak is so desperate from love, instead of seeing the pitfalls, seeing how he is (ironically) following in his mothers footsteps. dude asks Mut "how much". like what the actual f*ck! ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the fact that Mut had a genuine moment (at the end) doesn't alleviate my worries - if anything his always putting a price on his time & then offering bits of genuine affection, will dupe & confuse his prey into falling for him & be too deep before they realize they about to drown. i am worried about Rak - who sadly is the vulnerable one here. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************in-spite of everything i said i think it would've been a better idea from Rak to prolong his vacation instead of taking Mut back (given the preview) cause at least here they MIGHT have had a chance to just be together without a contract. i am really tired of how much money Rak has thrown Mut's way. how much money he need for that shack & living expenses?!? feels like he gonna keep milking the cow

this "love" is very transactional, every time Rak is buying Mut's services & it's not like Rak is doing so on his own volition, joking or not Mut keeps saying his service's r expensive & he doesn't reject the money. so i can't ignore this fact & then focus on the sweet moments, as if this a wholesome romcom, everything is tainted. ************************************************************if anything the fact Mut then turns around trying to seduce Rak with his flirtatious words & mentions love - makes me scratch my head - how this go hand in hand with him selling his services?!? yeah it is confusing a very troubled Rak, which is making me dislike Mut, cause he comes off like a con man that's sniffed out a big-whale & he's trying to milk him dry. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************Rak in-spite of being a mean-girl, that can cut someone with words is doing so cause he is very vulnerable, he really is still the child that got abandoned by his father & is scared to let anyone in/close. now even though he knows better, he is falling for Mut's charm & i worry he's gonna end up with a broken heart, cause he gonna be taken advantage off. as in-spite of his tough exterior he really is naivee & vulnerable. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************about the girls i was right & Vivi was into Khaimuk, but her way of wooing her is to turn her into her slave?!? & that kiss makes-up for her slave labor? miss me with this....

interesting... tried watching this a while back, but got stuck around the scene where Rak kicks out Mut from his room & Mut shouts from outside the door, that if he needs anything his phone number is near the bed... i had a hard time stomaching Rak's behavior - the moody artist personality isn't my cup of tea & being rude & condescending is a major turn-off. ********************but just finished watching Love in the Air & really liked Peat & Fort's chemistry there so thought to give this a 2nd try. as wanted to see more of them - so hope i like this, this time around. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************for a 1st ep this was interesting enough a start, even though i don't really like the suggestion that Mut's services include the bedroom. then how this a romance?!? even though i guess as Rak's just vacationing - which is gonna come to an end at some point, so this romance has a expiration date. which again idk how i feel about that... ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the girls - is that a GL angle? or they just filler - either way i kinda zoned out when they were on screen, the secretary is sweet but Love in the Air is the female version of Rak - which i kinda meet my quota with him, why i need her too? so i hope she isn't a mean girl cause then i will be skipping all of her scenes.

this was a freakin tough watch, maybe cause i knew how things would go, just couldn't sit through Sky's abuse all over again (seeing the J-version was more then enough) same with his break-down afterwards, it was tough just skimming over those parts. but this time around i felt like the bad-guys got away with murder, the fact Gun was beaten means nothing - Prapai was a moron to even offer his condo to some random dude & his threat, that if he does anything illegal he would come for that dude. amounts to sh*t - sorry but after the deed is done, what can u do?!? can't right any wrongs, that's for sure! **********************think the J-version where Prapai's counterpart dealt with the ex & his friends, was wayyyy more satisfying - 1. cause he showed up alone, not bringing witnesses to add to Sky's humiliation (especially not a moronic witnesses, that had a hand in delivering Sky into hell) & 2. he beat the sh*t out of every dude there & then rained hell down on the ex's head. that was so freakin satisfying, here it left me wanting. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but all's well that ends well & am happy Sky got his happily ever after with Prapai - even though i felt like everything got wrapped up too quickly. but it is what it is - just thankful didn't have to see more of Rain - dude is a moron, sorry not sorry. *********************************************************************************************************************************************side note - Gun - is that his real voice?!? dude looks good but the sec he opened his mouth (heck when he was a voice on the phone. a few eps back, i thought his voice sounded whack) but that soft voice is a joke - & sorry if that is the actors voice, but THAT VOICE IS A BAD JOKE for a grown ass man - sorry. it had to be said. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this was fine for a one off, even though the J-version is an remake of this, i liked that better & i aint faulting the acting, which was good. yeah liked some character's better then others, but i can't ignore the fact that a really serious topic was dealt with frivolously. but that is my pet peeve, so it is what it is - this a 1 off.

the whole mess was cause of the PTSD Sky got from his ex. now if he had dealt with that or told Prapai about it - maybe just maybe they would know how to avoid situations that made Sky to lose it. or maybe it was inevitable - either way in real life, i don't see anyone going back for more, after the way Sky spoke to Prapai on the phone. there aint no coming back from that IMO. **********************************************************************************************************************************but am glad that he started to tell Prapai about his ex, wish he had followed through & told the whole dirty tale. but it is what it is. *************************************************************************************************************************************what i didn't get was the need to come out to Rain - is he Sky's mother or father?!? WhyTF he need to especially be told? that whole scene was crap IMO as is Rain a sh*t friend. Sig much much better, he & Por even Ple better friend's to Sky in comparison to Rain. so that scene was needed cause Rain a main?!? like plz

when Sky called Prapai over just so he could help him with his project, i laughed out loud. now that was hilarious. i know Sky is gonna fall (well he kinda has) sooner or later. but i like that he is making Prapai work for it. ***************************************even though personally i think before they hopped into bed, Sky should've told Prapai about his past & that would either drive him away or make him aware of the trauma Sky is living with. either way it was a win win situation. ******************************as Sky would find out for sure if Prapai is indeed serious & 2ndly he would have a partner, that could help him with dealing with his past trauma - healing from it.

1st half of this ep had to shut my brain off, cause i kept stopping & couldn't just ignore how heated i was getting, infuriated at the writer, at Rain & even at Prapai.... but once i succeeded in distancing myself from Sky & his traumatic past. could cool down enough to watch this whole ep from start to finish. *********************************************************************************won't say i am a happy camper, but this is what it is & this gonna unfold in a way that isn't healthy but as Prapai is doing his best to show that he has genuinely changed & cares for Sky. i guess i can overlook what i find toxic. doesn't change the fact that i am really pissed at the Thai writers that take really painful, traumatic topics that humans not only go through, but have a hell of a time getting over - to have some semblance of a normal life - & they turn it into so much fluff.

this ep was a tough one to sit through. had to fast forward everything after Sky fainted. Rain is a sh*thead & a even sh*ttier friend & personally i think Sky should cut him out of his life, regardless of who he dates. cause not only is Rain unreliable, he will sell u out the sec something more entertaining comes along. ironic that i didn't dislike Rain when the focus of the plot was on him, now i can't stand to see his face. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Prapai is another one that i don't really like. yeah i get when ur pursuing someone, u call & texts let alone send them sweet nothings, to let them know u r thinking about them. but what he is doing is obsessive. it not normal & even if u didn't sufferer from a traumatic experience (like Sky), u would start to get weary of how extra Prapai is being. the non stop texting & phoning would drive me cray enough to be brutal towards him verbally. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************so other then pitying Sky, i didn't feel much joy in this ep - he is suffering all alone & add to this he has so much on his plate & if this wasn't enough, he got "friends" like Rain pushing him over the emotional cliff with their thoughtless actions. Sky not ready to be in a relationship & needs therapy to get over what was done to him. then when he is strong enough emotionally, he can dip his feet into the shallow waters of the dating world. when he is ready - on his terms! ************************************************************************************************************************************************************what is happening now, isn't healthy for him in the long run, but this is what is written so it is what it is... pity that the Thai writers choose "heavy" topics to spice up dramas, but then offer sorry excuses as solutions to those problems. will need to take a break from this cause seeing the preview & Sky - it's sick....

1st off, if this was gonna be Sky & Prapai "love" story, why we need all of Payu & Rains scenes, especially when they were together (all alone)?!? let alone we have seen them more then once since the start. just filler?!? redundant IMO. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************2ndly if i was Sky the day after the race i would hunt down Rain & tell my bff that we r done. i would inform him that i had to "sell" myself to get out of a situation i got into, trying to help my bff - a bff that abandoned me without a backward glance. so Prapai would have no hold over me, like he did when he showed up & "offered" to drive Sky back to his dorm. even there i wouldn't shy away & would inform the world that "what we had" was a transaction where i had to f*ck him, so i could go free unaccosted by the goons at the illegal race. end off - no romance, no nothing... but then no drama lol *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************i like Sky, but he needs to stand by his guns, cause (IMO) the only reason Prapai can't seem to forget him is cause of how Sky (in-spite of being the underdog) didn't act the victim or lay there suffering, like a lamb to the slaughter. he took control & f*cked Prapai. afterwards he didnt stick around trying to make more of the situation. he treated Prapai like a one-night-stand & walked away without a backward glance . that is what pricked Prapai's ego (& he got a ginormous one, dude utterly full of himself). so not shocking he can't forget someone who treated him, like he treats his usual hook-ups. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************in this ep i didn't Rain as much as i disliked Prapai - for different reasons. Rain is a bad-friend & Sky would save himself a major headache if he cut ties with both - alas not gonna happen ugh
