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

kinda shocked how wholesome the 1st couple has turned out to be, pleasantly so... the whole kidnapping scene was boring to me lol... cause it was kinda stupid. how big of an ego u gotta have to form a grudge against someone u encountered twice. the 1st time i get Stop getting annoyed at anyone that had the audacity to tell him off. but the 2nd time, there was No reason to come for Payu, he didn't provoke him or even speak to him rudely, he didn't even race him. but i guess he looked like a weak link - either way it was stupid & am glad we got rid of him (i hope) but i laughed out loud when Rain kicked him, saying the only guy that can screw him is his bf - not that was hilarious! *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also am glad Payu & Rain out as a couple, even though i really felt bad for Ple, she didn't deserve to get blindsided like that, Rain should've taken her aside & informed her then other when she asked for him number in the previous ep.

guess Payu & Saifah r related, like why they both have to give Stop the time of day idk, it was like looking for trouble. the dude was a douche & he kept announcing to the world that he a little d*cked moron, that was searching for a fight. ironically or not both brothers fell right into the trap. the fact he lost twice wasn't enough of an ego hit, he had to go & abduct Rain... stupid is as stupid does i guess - utter moron. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the main couple got great chemistry & what i am really enjoying is that they both on the same page, one doesn't have to keep courting the other, trying to convince them to be present in the relationship. kinda refreshing -

am i the only one that is really curious to see Payu with his hair down?!? lol... oh well - the guys together, didn't think Rain would happily slot himself into the role of 'wife' this easily. but i am grateful that he aint acting coy - that would annoy me. but the suppository did me in. who the f*ck thinks of that sh*t, let alone has one handy - just in case OMG that floored me. *************************************************************************************************************************************************also i kinda don't get Rain's mother some random senior pops in - ok. but then spend all day into the night cooped-up in ur sons room with the door shut & u don't bat an eyelid?!? weird *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************glad Ple wanted Payu's number & not suddenly had a change of heart regarding Rain.

still can't get my head around the fact that Payu & Saifah r twins. not to mention the fact that Saifah looks older & is running a garage (employing countless employee's), while Payu's still a senior in uni.. but ok - btw like that Saifah calls Rain 'rainy boy' - kinda cute the nick he gave his brothers lover. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also i don't like that suddenly Ple is after Rain. it paints women in a bad light. why we need her suddenly going after someone she didn't care for, until he stopped running after her? (& yes i know that this happens in real life) but i rather a female character not be used to create unnecessary drama in a BL, as it is starting to come off a bit misogynistic - how females keep getting portrayed in BL's.

this was a fun ep, kinda loving how Payu keeps teasing Rain & agree with everyone (in the BL) that Rain is rude - very rude, so like this taming the shrew moments, that r required as Rain is coming off like a spoilt brat that deserves everyone fawning over him & freebies. ***********************************************************************************************************************even the J-versions character was a bit self-centered & it started to grate especially when it came to his close bff. here too Rain is all about Rain & everyone else is humoring him. which can get tiresome to watch - not to mention it is hard to root for a character like this. so Payu's tough love is needed. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************as i know what Sky's characters plot is i am really impatient to see more of him. but will wait for that to unfold. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************also is Saifah really Payu's twin?!? or he was just joking & they really close maybe family - cause they don't look related IMO

was right about Rain, here as opposed to the J-version, he is mean. like sorry but u don't get free work done on ur car by a stranger & expect to walk away without even thanking the person that did all that work for free. that's not just free labor, but also free parts. like is he serious?!? idk by felt like the J-version's plot flowed more logically. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also find it ironic every time Payu refers to himself as problematic. he might be playing cat & mouse games with Rain, but he not mean or weird, he has yet to act in a way that was taking advantage of the situation or Rain. from where i am sitting Rain is the headache that idk if Payu should want to take him on. ***********************************************************************but having said all this i do enjoy the chemistry between the mains, i like Payu & they make me laugh, so that already a plus.
