Back at Sathit's house, Sathit was sitting down with a strained expression, eyes looking down at his watch as if he was waiting for time. He prayed for what he was scared of not to happen. Then amidst the silence, Sathit heard a car pulled over in front of his house. Jeerawat was in the car hesitating whether she should go down or not. Sathit, still sitting at the same spot, closed his eyes, hand in a closed tight grip, continued praying. He didn't want Jeerawat to come to him and exchange her body and dignity/honor just for that evidence. He believed she has enough dignity to not do that.
"Don't Jee." "Don't come. " He pleaded to himself.
Jeerawat decided to get out the car and stared ahead at Sathit's house. She was about to open the gate, hands gripping the door tightly with pain. A part of her didn't want to go in but a part of her wanted to know what Sathit told Jariya [her mother] was true or not. Jeerawat walked inside.
Sathit was standing in the middle of the room when Jeerawat walked in. Both exchanging a cold look while hiding their pain inside.
"Tell me, you didn't come because of the agreement between your mother and I, did you?" Sathit was trying to give Jeerawat one last chance.
"Tell me, are you willing to end everything if I sleep with you?" Jeerawat asked to make sure Sathit didn't mean what he told her mother. Sathit looked at Jeerawat and thought that she asked to make sure if she did sleep with him, he would really end everything.
"If I said yes?" Sathit subtlety asked one last time.
Jeerawat painfully listened to those words from Sathit. The feelings she had before, thinking Sathit had seen the value in her is now gone. Jeerawat wanted to cry but held it in. She told herself not to be vulnerable in front of this man ever again. So she changed her vulnerability to sarcasm.
"Then I will sleep with you!"
"This is what you're really good at I bet. " Sathit painfully looked at Jeerawat. That feeling of how he tried to see Jeerawat in a new light is also gone.
"If I done it many times before means I'm good at it...then yes, I'm good at it! Tell me, where do you want to sleep with me at?! Sathit, from looking at Jeerawat with agony has now turned into anger, how she was willing to sell her dignity just to get away with crime.
"I want to sleep with you right here! Can you do it?! Sathit fired back, glaring defiantly at Jeerawat as if he's putting up a challenge.
Jeerawat took off her purse from her shoulders and threw it on the ground. Miscellaneous things fell out from it. Then she she took off her outer shirt and also threw that to the ground. Sathit stood there still. She then unbuckled her belt and took that off. Sathit still stood there. Jeerawat then took off her inside shirt and threw that down. Sathit, still stood there, wandering how far and daring Jeerawat will go.
Just when Jeerawat was about to unbutton her undergarment, Sathit stopped her and became distraught.
"Enough! Just this much, I already know you're good at selling your own dignity to your own benefit."
"But from the agreement, didn't you want to sleep with me?"
"But right now, I don't want to anymore!"
"Then how would I know you wouldn't back out on your words?!"
"A person like me...can be trusted!"
"I used to think that...but in the end...you were just doing everything you could to give justice to the woman you love! Just do it and get it over with so there won't be anything between us anymore!" Jeerawat tried to unbutton her undergarment but Sathit grabbed on to her hands, "I said I won't do it!"
"Why?...you despise me?...or you're scared of me?" Jeerawat pushed his hand away.
"What do you have for me to be scared of you?!"
"You're scared of your own feelings! You're scared to be near me because you might waver....just like in the past...you wanted to be close to me to get revenge but ended up falling for my charms...you worry about me...you love me!"
Jeerawat walked closer to Sathit. When Sathit heard the word "love", it felt like his heart just got stomped on, reminding him how stupid he was so he wanted Jeerawat to feel more pain than him.
"You're the one that's wavering when you're near me...you fell for me...you love me! If your step-dad didn't bring me the evidence to expose you, I would have made you fall in love with me that you were willing to confess the truth." Sathit mocked back.
"So finally, you admitted that the reason you became close to me was to find a way to put me in jail."
"Yes! Just so you know, I'm not a lustful man like the men you've been with. The only reason I approached you was to find justice for Tew. And if tonight I touch you in any way, shape or form, it's so I can avenge for Tew! I already told you, if the law can't do anything to you, I will use the karmic law on you! I will hurt you, humiliate you, make you feel worthless! Make you live with suffering, condemned you your whole life how you were willing to sell your dignity to a man just so you can get away from jail time!" Sathit was just as hurt as Jeerawat but expressed a sneering, mockery look.
Jeerawat was also hurt, as if her heart was ripped out in front of her. She grabbed on to Sathit's shirt and pulled him closer to her face and shouted at him uncontrollably, "Then do it! Kiss me! Sleep with me! Step all over my dignity! Avenge me for causing your girlfriend to die! Do it! Do it! Do it!"
Suddenly, Sathit was unable to keep his emotions flared up inside. He pulled Jeerawat's face in for a kiss. A kiss that was a mixture of love and pain. Jeerawat wanted to pull back but endured it so the nightmare can finally end. Sathit didn't want to do this but because of the anger, the pain, the love, of wanting to possess, wanting to win, and including the sweet taste of Jeerawat's kiss, caused Sathit unable to refrain himself. It was a kiss filled with emotions, including passion, love, pain, and resentment. All the feelings were rushed inside that both felt a sense of sweetness, bitterness, and tears....
