Vehicle Ad Chapter 16
Welcome to Chapter 16 of the 'Vehicle Ad' podcast.
In the morning, the winter wind blows through Chiang Mai,
carrying a crisp chill that invigorates the city. Despite the cold, the blooming
flowers in the gardens and parks create a vibrant contrast, their colors
brightening up the winter landscape. The delicate petals of seasonal
blooms, such as the vibrant poinsettias and the cheerful chrysanthemums, stand
out against the cool, misty air. The juxtaposition of the wintry breeze and the
flourishing flowers highlights the unique charm of Chiang Mai during this time
of year, blending the refreshing cold with the beauty of blooming nature.
As Dang drifts into a peaceful sleep on her bed, the
tranquility of the room is momentarily interrupted by a delicate butterfly. It emerges from a nearby
blue hydrangea arrangement, its vibrant wings fluttering gently. The butterfly, drawn by the
subtle allure of the flowers, alights softly on Dang's nose. Her breathing stirs the
butterfly’s
delicate wings, creating a fleeting, magical moment that bridges the beauty of
nature with her serene rest. The butterfly’s presence, though brief, adds a
whimsical touch to the quiet stillness of her slumber.
Itim, captivated by the enchanting moment, quietly reaches
for his mobile phone to capture the scene. The butterfly, perched delicately on
Dang’s nose,
creates a charming and serene image that Itim wants to remember. He carefully adjusts his
phone to frame the shot, ensuring the delicate butterfly and Dang’s peaceful expression are both
perfectly visible. With
a gentle click, he takes the photo, preserving this fleeting, magical moment of
beauty and tranquility. The photograph becomes a cherished reminder of the serene
and unexpected moments that can occur in everyday life.
As Dang slowly wakes from her slumber, she feels a gentle
tickle on her nose and instinctively blows softly to dislodge whatever is
causing the sensation. The
small gust of air, however, proves too strong for the delicate butterfly, which
falls to the side, lifeless. Dang, realizing what has happened, feels a pang of regret
and sadness over the unintended consequence of her action. The once-beautiful and magical moment
is now tinged with a sense of loss, reminding her of the fragility of such
delicate creatures and the impact of even the smallest actions.
As Dang comes to terms with the butterfly’s demise, Itim, observing her
somber mood, tries to lighten the atmosphere with a chuckle. He playfully reminds her, “Today is Saturday!” His eyes twinkle with
mischief as he suggests that they take a shower together, aiming to shift the
focus from the morning's unfortunate event to a shared, intimate moment. Itim’s offer is intended to bring
a sense of warmth and closeness, transforming the mood and allowing them to
start their day with a renewed connection.
Itim and Dang, seeking to uplift their spirits, retreat to
the luxurious jacuzzi. As
the warm, bubbling water envelops them, their laughter mingles with the gentle
hum of the jets. Itim's
fingers trace soothing patterns on Dang's back, while she playfully splashes
water, creating a shared sense of intimacy. The steam rising around them softens
their features, and their eyes lock in a tender gaze, the playful atmosphere
giving way to a deeper connection. Surrounded by the serene warmth, they lean in for a soft,
lingering kiss, savoring the moment's tranquility and the closeness they share,
their worries momentarily forgotten in the soothing embrace of the jacuzzi.
As they relax in the soothing warmth of the jacuzzi, Dang
turns to Itim with a gentle smile and says, "Could you light an aroma candle
for us?"
She gestures towards a nearby candle, its scent promising to enhance
their tranquil moment. Itim
nods and reaches for the candle, striking a match and lighting the wick. The soft, flickering glow
and delicate fragrance soon fill the air, adding a layer of calming ambiance to
their intimate bath. Dang’s eyes close in contentment
as the soothing aroma blends with the jacuzzi’s warmth, deepening their sense of
relaxation and connection.
As the candle’s soft glow casts a warm ambiance, Itim decides to add a
touch of playful humor to their serene moment. He wraps his arms around Dang in the
jacuzzi, pulling her into a tight embrace. “Careful,” he teases, “I’m pretty sure you’re about to become a
permanent fixture here!” Dang bursts into laughter, the bubbles and steam adding
to the light-heartedness
of the scene. Their
playful exchange, filled with affectionate giggles, turns their relaxing bath
into a joyous, shared experience, reinforcing their close bond and making the
moment even more memorable.
After their playful and rejuvenating bath, Dang, with a
twinkle in her eye, turns to Itim and says, “Okay, now that we’ve had our fun, it’s time for you to open your
birthday gift!”
She hands him the neatly wrapped present, her excitement palpable. Itim, still beaming from
their shared laughter, eagerly unwraps the gift, his anticipation growing with
each tear of the wrapping paper. The moment is filled with a blend of curiosity and affection
as Dang watches, her heart warmed by the joy of giving and the shared
celebration of his special day.
As Itim unveils the gift and sees what Dang has chosen for
him, his face lights up with genuine gratitude. He looks at Dang with a heartfelt smile
and says, “Thank
you so much; you’re
the best gift I could ask for on my birthday.” Overwhelmed with emotion, he leans
in and plants a tender kiss on her lips, a sweet gesture that conveys his deep
appreciation and love. The
kiss, filled with warmth and affection, perfectly captures the joy and
closeness they share, making the moment all the more special.
Dang arranges for a truck to transport her belongings to
Itim's home. As
the truck arrives and the movers begin to unload her items, Dang supervises the
process with a mix of excitement and anticipation. Seeing her possessions being
carefully placed into Itim's home marks a significant step in their shared life
together. With
each box and piece of furniture settled into its new place, Dang feels a growing
sense of commitment and joy, knowing that her move signifies the beginning of a
new chapter in their relationship.
Dang inquires about the available space in Itim's home where
she can place her belongings. She carefully reviews each room with Itim, discussing
where her items would fit best and how they can be organized efficiently. Her attention to detail
ensures that everything finds its place while also harmonizing with Itim’s existing setup. This conversation highlights
her consideration for both their needs and the shared living space, reflecting
her commitment to making their home comfortable and functional for both of them.
Itim tells Dang, "Now that you’re my wife, managing the home
is part of your role. You
can design the space however you like. It’s up to you." His words, while
reflecting traditional views, also convey trust in Dang’s ability to create a
welcoming and personalized living environment. He leaves the decisions about
arranging and decorating their home in her hands, showing confidence in her
taste and judgment.
Itim explains to Dang, “Today is Saturday, and the printer
service store is open. They
mainly operate Monday to Friday for office workers, but they stay open on
weekends too. They
need to balance their schedule, just like office workers do, so they’re available to help even on
days when people might need them for weekend projects.”
Dang says to Itim, “You’re always so busy, just like before. I don’t like it. Manow, on the other hand,
always wants to travel and explore new places. It feels like things were different
when I was with him.”
Itim, with a playful grin, responds, “How about we ‘travel’ to the printer store? It’s not quite the adventure
Manow has in mind, but it might be a fun detour for us!”
Dang, feeling a bit peckish, asks, “How about breakfast?” Itim suggests with a smile, “Let’s grab some khao new moo ping* from the place near the
printer store. It’ll be a tasty stop before we
head over there!”
Dang, looking at Itim with a serious expression, says, “You’re still the same as before. I need time to adjust. I want to have a baby and
build a fulfilling family with you.” Her words reflect her desire for deeper connection and a
shared future.
Itim, acknowledging Dang’s feelings, responds with a smile, “Let’s go to the printer store
first. But
tonight, let’s
focus on making our family complete in our bed.” His lighthearted promise blends
practicality with intimacy, signaling both their immediate plans and his
commitment to their future together.
Itim and Dang savor a delectable breakfast of moo ping and
sticky rice, each bite a burst of flavor. The moo ping, grilled to perfection,
offers a smoky sweetness with tender, juicy pork that’s been marinated in a blend
of savory spices. The
sticky rice, warm and slightly chewy, complements the pork with its subtly
sweet and nutty taste. Together,
they create a harmonious balance of textures and flavors, making each mouthful
a satisfying and comforting treat. The aroma of the grilled meat and the creamy, fragrant
rice makes the meal a delightful start to their day, evoking a sense of
culinary pleasure and contentment.
Itim introduces Dang to Peter, his efficient and organized
secretary, with a warm smile. “Dang, this is Peter, my secretary. Peter, this is my wife,
Dang,” he
says. Peter
nods politely, offering a professional yet friendly handshake. Itim then turns to Peter,
saying, “Peter,
can you please update me on my schedule for today?” Peter promptly opens his
planner, ready to provide a detailed overview of Itim’s appointments and tasks,
ensuring that Itim stays informed and prepared for the day ahead.
Peter reviews the schedule and informs Itim, “This morning, the Kluy agent
requested 100 banners for the tuk-tuk ads. They need them urgently.” Peter’s efficient update ensures
that Itim is aware of the new request and can make the necessary arrangements
to address the client’s
needs promptly.
Itim, slightly concerned, asks Peter, “Where are the banners?” Peter directs him to the
storage room where the banners are kept. Itim immediately heads there,
methodically checking each piece to ensure they meet the required
specifications. He
inspects the quality, prints, and sizes, ensuring everything is in order and
ready for the Kluy agent’s urgent request. His thorough examination reflects
his commitment to maintaining high standards and addressing client needs
effectively.
Itim takes Dang aside and patiently explains, “If you need to check the
banners yourself, here’s what you should look for: make sure each banner has the correct
design, the colors are vibrant and true to the proof, and there are no printing
errors or damages.” He
demonstrates how to examine the details closely, ensuring Dang feels confident
in handling the task.
He then adds, “If I can’t work for any reason, it’s important for you to be able to run
the business for our family. It’s crucial for us to be able to depend on each other,
especially in challenging times.” His words emphasize the significance of teamwork and
mutual support in their shared responsibilities.
Dang looks at Itim with a reassuring smile and says, "You’re going to be strong forever. I have faith in you and in
us. We’ll face whatever comes our
way together, and I know we’ll always come out stronger on the other side." Her words convey her
unwavering support and confidence in Itim’s strength and their shared future.
Dang wraps her arms around Itim in a warm embrace, her eyes
sparkling with a playful request. "Could you get us some coconut ice cream?" she asks with a hopeful
grin. Peter,
ever attentive, quickly notes the request and heads out to arrange for a
delivery. Soon,
he returns with a container of creamy coconut ice cream, satisfying Dang’s craving and adding a sweet
touch to their day.
Dang, Itim, and Peter gather around a table, enjoying a
delightful spread of Thai coconut ice cream. They savor the rich, creamy ice
cream topped with a drizzle of milk and a generous sprinkle of crunchy nuts. Alongside, they indulge in
traditional Thai desserts like sticky rice with mango and sweet coconut
dumplings, each bite complementing the ice cream perfectly. The mix of textures and
flavors creates a deliciously satisfying experience, enhancing their shared
moment of relaxation and enjoyment.
