Here's a story about a boy and a girl
They lived together for some time now. After years, the girl have to go back to where she came from. A place far far away from the boy. Over there, is a place where the girl called home. A place where her parents are there. A place where everything is easier for her.
The boy wanted her to stay. He doesn't want her to leave. But, he dare not tell her that. He is afraid that if he didn't let her go, she will have to go through hardships with him.
The girl, waited for the boy to ask her to not leave. She waited until they reached the airport. He did not say a single word. Then, the girl gave the boy a cute stuffed pig. She said to him 'pat her head whenever you miss me'. She smiled and waled away. She did not look back.
The boy was walking outside. Suddenly it rained. Soon he realised he did the stupidest thing ever. He forgot to ask for her new place's number and address. He was very upset. Soaked in the rain, he walk home.
Everyday, he waited for her call, but she did not call. Whenever he misses her, he pats the pig's head. Everywhere he goes and everything he does, he sees her. There's nothing he can do.
Three months had passed. He decided to move on and stop this torture. He thought maybe she had forgot about him. Maybe she found a better guy. He stepped out of the house with the pig in his hands. He looked at it for a moment. pats her head once and gave it to the neighbour's little daughter. She was very happy to see that cute stuffed pig. She thank the boy over and over again smilling happily looking at it.
That night, he couldn't sleep. No matter how hard he tried to forget her, her image is always in his head. Now that the stuffed pig she gave him is not with him anymore there's nothing he can do. Tears flow down his cheeks. Soon he fell asleep.
*knock! knock! knock!*
*knock! knock! knock!*
He walks to the door. Opened it. He saw the little girl next door. She looked at him and said
'i think this lil' piggy is a magical pig. yesterday when i was patting her head, this paper came out from her mouth! i think this piggy loves big brother very much and doesn't want big brother to leave her' He took the pig and the pink paper. On the pink paper wrote the girl's number and address.
The truth is the girl had this pig custom made so that the pink paper will come out after the pig is patted 99 times.
The boy quickly buys air ticket to get to the girl. The boy and the girl nearly missed their chance to be with each other.
In this story, they put each other into 'kao yen' . We always put our partner into 'kao yen'. Sometimes we do things like, 'if he call me for the eighth time i will answer' or 'if he confess to me again i will accept him' etc etc etc. . . .but think about it again sometimes all this 'kao yen' does put us into trouble right.
