Young Te'h dreams of becoming a performer in a Chinese drama. Of all his friends, only Oh-aew indulges him, loyally playing characters right alongside Te'h with his scavenged costumes. When their teacher extemporaneously casts Oh-aew as the lead in their school's performance of Sword Over the Moon, Te'h is initially supportive. However, when Oh-aew admits acting's something he'd like to pursue, Te'h feels slighted. It isn't until they're in High School chasing University admittance when they meet again and Te'h hasn't forgotten. Despite Te'h's obvious academic advantage, he feels envious of his ex-friend and doggedly pits himself against Oh-aew.

On his first day at University, The manages to commit his every evening to working behind the scenes on a play. He's sorry to give up his evenings with Oh-aew, but he'll get them back when the play's finished. Additionally, getting the long way through Bangkok traffic to school proves a challenge for The and his morning alarm keeps being pushed earlier and earlier. His absence is felt strongly by Oh-aew, who by contrast seems to have too much time to himself with no close friends in the city.
