After getting the approximate address of Beer, which includes Nawamin, Lang Suan, Suan Luang, all the way to the Phra Nakhon area, Fang asked me to randomly pick a Gashapon blind box. I changed the destination and prepared to fly from Phra Khanong to the center of Phra Nakhon. Traveling like transportation is available for free. It cost me almost a thousand baht already for the transportation today. I've taken it all: BTS sky train, subway, airport rail link, motorcycle taxi, boats, taxis, buses. Today, there's probably only hot-air balloon that I haven't ridden yet.

In the end, I successfully brought my sweaty body to stand as a dog panting from the sun in front of Beer's house. Until I got the right place, it made me almost faint. But why does the house look so noble? I raised my head to look at the beautiful Thai letters carved exquisitely beautiful on the towering white arch. As I scanned my eyes and looked at the atmosphere around, I concluded that this place probably shouldn't be called a house, it should be called a mansion. Even though I couldn't see inside well because big trees were obscuring it, no matter how I looked at it, it clearly looked like the residence of the rulers of the past. The yellow building was two stories high. The roof and windows were a dull green color. The building has a unique architecture, colonial mixed with Thai art. It's good that I studied art. So I have knowledge the size of a bullfrog's tail in this matter.

The inside of the house looks peaceful and sheltered, with the pleasant sound of birds singing. I looked at the letters on the white arch again and slowly reading them aloud.

"Wang Phiangsakun. Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!!!"

[*Wang (วัง) palace, Royal residence]

Royal residence!!! If that's the case then it means that Beer is... I stood frozen, my mouth opened. Is today International Surprise Day or what? If a Naga* appeared in the middle of the Chao Phraya River, I wouldn't be shocked. Fuck, there's something that really shocks me every twenty minutes.

"Hello ka, who are you looking for?"

I was startled upon hearing someone's voice, "Hello, I'm, uh... looking for Beer. I'm his friend."

She must be the housekeeper here. She was dressed like a maid of the nobles in the old days, in a navy blue sarong, a white cotton shirt, and neatly tying her hair in a bun with frangipani flowers. Oh my god, I fell into the atmosphere of Malai Sam Chai*. Will I get to see Thongprai? Um, sorry for getting into the drama too much.

[*มาลัยสามชาย (Flower Garland for 3 Men) a Thai period lakorn about the Thai noble class. Thongprai is the female villain. I'm not a fan of Thai lakorns but I highly recommend this.]

I don't know if the housekeeper will believe my words that I am Beer's friend because right now I look like a homeless person. Would they let me into the house like this? Oh! I want to cry. And no one even bothered to tell me that Beer is an aristocrat. At least, I would dress more neatly.

"Oh Khun Beer's friend? Please come inside. Please have a seat and wait a moment. I'll go inform Khun Chai that his friend come to see him."

Oh, oh, oh, he is "Khun Chai"? If the term "Khun Chai" to refer to hereditary title then it means that Beer must be Mom Ratchawong. Oh, my God, he's truly a royal member. I bowed my head and thanked the housekeeper until it almost touched my knees. While waiting, I took a look at Khun Chai's house. While I said that it was definitely a nobleman's mansion from the outside, the inside was even more intense.
