Story Lines: 1. Nat, Somchai 2. Nat, Num, Earn 3. Somchai, Mos, Momay

…Nat looks at Num and couldn’t reply to his suspicious question. Mos interrupts and says, “ Do you know each other? Have you guys met before?” This even made it scarier for Nat but then Num stops his suspicion and greets Nat in a good manner. Num sticks out his hand for a handshake and says, “ Sorry, I don’t think we met before. You just look like someone I’ve seen before. And she can’t be you, you look like someone that would be in a magazine rather than on the street.” Num gives Nat a dumb and dorky smile. Nat was relief but his comments also offended her. Nat trys to remain clam and replies,

“Thanks, ummmm…I don’t think we’ve met yet. Is that all, Mr. Mos?” She turns to her boss and Mos signals her to leave with his hands. Nat turn around and heads for the door, when Num says, “ I didn’t get your full name?” Nat stops for a second then pretends she didn’t hear the question and shuts the door behind her. She stands and listens behind the door. On the other side, Num faces Mos and ask him, “What’s her full name? I know that I said that we haven’t met but I still have this feeling inside that we’ve met before, Mos.” Mos looks at Num and jokes with him, “ maybe in your dreams….hehehe” Num keeps a straight face and Mos realizes that his friend was serious. “ Okay, sorry I was just joking. Anyway if you are serious her full name is…….” Mos stops and realizes that he doesn’t know her full name, “ummmm……Nat…something.” Mos stands there clueless and Num looks at Mos, asking himself why Mos doesn’t know her name. Then Nums says, “Didn’t Momay tell you to watch what you are doing when it comes to the business?” Mos finally admits, “ I don’t know. I just hired her and never looked at her file. I mean she looked professional enough.” Num stands there in shock and says,

“What? You don’t know her full name? What if her name’s not even Nat? Okay, now I’m really feeling something bad here.” Num gives Mos the eyes and Mos picks up the phone and gives an orders, “ This is Mr.Mos. Can you please search for Nat’s file for me?” Mos waits for a minute or so and then hangs up the phone. Num questions Mos with a look that says, -what’s happening-, Mos stand there and says, “ I’m on it.”

Nat still listening from behind the door, was scare and at the same time, angry. She stands up and couldn’t feel her legs or face. She touches her mouth and remains there in fear. It wasn’t until she remember that she had actually put her real full name in her files because at that time she was nervous of the mission she was going on and accidently filled her real name in. “ What have I done? If Num gets the file and realizes that I am the girl he arrested, I would be in deep trouble. And….the master what will he do?” She quietly says to herself. Standing there in silence, she suddenly hears a phone ringing from Mos rooms, she quickly places her ear near the door again. Inside the room, Mos picks up the phone, “ Hello, okay. We’ll be there.” He hangs up the phone and looks at Num. Num sees that is face was all pale and lifeless. Mos explains to Num, “ my mother’s in the hospital. Let’s go.” Nat hears their footsteps and she hides herself. They both exit the room and leaves. Nat comes back into the hallway and sees the door was unlocked. She had to do something about her files.

“Knock Knock” Momay stands up from the chair in the hospital room and walks over to the door and opens it. Mos storms into the rooms while Num was right behind him. Mos stops by the side of his mother’s bed. The air from outside alerts his mother and she wakes up and sees Mos “hi, what are you doing here. You are suppose to be getting ready for your trip tomorrow.” Mos hears his mother’s weak voice and replies, “ Are you okay? I don’t think I’ll be leaving any time soon now.” Mos’ mother’s eyes open wider and she says, “ No, don’t let this old lady stop you. Please don’t worry and go. You must, I can’t let your father down.” Mos knew that everytime she brings up his father, he couldn’t refuse. Mos reassures his mother by saying, “Okay, I will go. But it’s not till tomorrow so I’ll stay here tonight. Okay?” Mos turns his head and looks at Num and then says to him, “ I’ll be gone tomorrow. Please look after the business and my mother?” Num nods his head and walks over to Momay giving her a comforting hug, and then he leaves.

The day was almost over and Nat sits at her desk, still trying to think of a way to get the files. She finally stands up and leaves work. Walking through the parking lot, she sees Num’s car pulling up and she ducks down behinds a car. “ Oh dame you Num! You not only made this mission harder but now I have to walk home.” She says in a hateful voice. The bus stop was on the other side and she didn’t want Num to see her getting on the bus, it would make him even more suspicious. Nat swings the other way and walks home. Her walk took forever and the sun was setting, but she reaches home. She stops right outside of the house and could smell the food. She peeks inside and sees Somchai cooking dinner. She smiles to herself, then Somchai looks up and sees her. “ You home so late.” He says to Nat. Nat enters the house and says, “Somchai, there’s a bit of a problem at work. And I really need your help.” Somchai stops his cooking and looks Nat straight in the eyes, “What do you mean, problem? Come on Nat, I can’t be saving you all the time. Beside what can I do now?” Somchai trouble by this but also understanding of Nat’s situation, he hates it when he runs into this part again and again, always coming to the rescue. There was a pause and then Nat walks into her bedroom and comes out with a big box. She puts it on the dinner table and takes out a wrapped black suit and looks up at Somchai with a sneaky smile, “Yes you can help me. Just trust me, okay? Here’s the suit that master got for you at the beginning, you know before I took the mission but anyway, the plan is that you will go there and get the files for me.” Nat finishes her plan and tells him what had happen( Num noticing her and her personal files) and Somchai gives her a confusing face as well as an expression that says- Nat are you crazy-. Nat notices Somchai’s reactions and she says, “Trust me. I don’t think Num will recognize you. Before they left the office, Mos forgot to lock his doors, I would go in tomorrow but everyone knows that he always locks his room. I just can’t go and open the door, but you can.” She smiles and Somchai wonders why he can. Nat skips over to Somchai’s side and says, “ Mos is leaving tomorrow afternoon, and he won’t be coming in the morning because his mother’s in the hospital, so it’s prefect for you to go and……switch the files.” Somchai gives her a sudden look and says, “ What?! Aren’t you afraid other people will know that I’m not him.” She wasn’t surprise by this question and she stands there smiling, “ Come on Somchai, let’s give you a hair cut.”

(Next morning) Momay wakes up in her pink pajamas, and sees her brother by the door. Mos walks into the room and says, “Get up Momay. I need you to go to my office and grab a file for me. And I’ll bring breakfast to mom, okay?” Momay makes a loud yawn and nods her head.

Momay leaving the house, she sees her neighbor and she walks over by the gate and says, “ Good morning Earn. What are you doing up so early?” Earn turns around and replies, “ Oh, hi! I thought it was a beautiful morning so I got up. Hey Momay, I heard that Num’s back. Do you know what he is doing today?” Earn says in a curious and embarrassing tone. Momay notices her friend ‘s curiosity and says, “ Sorry I don’t, but if you stop by the office later on, he’s going to be there. He’s going to work there until my brother gets back. Well I’ll see you later.” Momay gives her a funny smile and walks off, leaving Earn standing there in a happy mood.

Somchai arrives at the building and glazes at the amazing building. He was in his black suit and new short hair cut. Nat hits him to get his attention and she says, “ HELLO, here’s the files I setup last night. Go in and switch the files. Okay? Come on let’s go.” She pushes him and then stops right before the entrance and says, “Thanks. You’re my hero.” Somchai looks at her and says, “Don’t thank me yet. Let see if this works.” They both enter and surprisly to Somchai everyone greeted him with “Good morning Mr.Mos” “How are you today Mr. Mos?” and “I hope your trip will be good Mr.Mos.” And Somchai just returns their questions with a smile. They both enter the main office and Somchai sees a big picture of a family. Nat points out that that was the family that own the business. He sees a young man that looks like him or somewhat similar to him and then sees a young girl next to the mother and father. Nat says to him, “ See that’s why I need you. I always thought you looked like him. See, that’s him. And that’s his sister.” She points at the picture and they both leave. They reach Mos’ office and Nat leaves him but with out a smile to make him more relief. She stands around the corner until she sees him enter the room successfully. Nat smiles and walks to her desk. It was then that she sees Momay walking toward Mos’ office, Nat freezes and couldn’t do anything. Momay walks and enters Mos’ office, and sees a man. Somchai turns around and faces Momay. She blurts out, “What are you doing here?”
