Chapter 1 Love will never return.

Light illuminates the drapes in the morning. The alarm clock sounded annoyingly loud. The woman under the blanket moved her hands to cover up the sound before continuing to lie down. Soon, there were several knocks on the door in succession. She had to get up from the bed and walk to unlock the door.

“When will you wake up? Sleep till the sun rises,” Tharatchanan’s stinging eardrum voice said, looking up at her sister, rubbing her hair with an annoyed expression.

“Today is a holiday. Can you let me sleep?” Ladapha responded in a sleepy tone. Both eyes were just partially awake.

“Yeah! Holiday, but you don’t think you want to wake up to exercise. Going for a walk other than lying in the room sluggish?!”

The listener exhaled. Before attempting to shut the door, she saw her elder sister had stopped the door and glanced at her with a displeased face.

“Sleep is an important factor. Do you know that? It doesn’t get old quickly.”

Tharatchanan rolled his eyes as soon as the term ‘old’ entered his mind.

“Hurry and take a shower and come down,” said her elder sister, looking at her before turning around and walking away as Ladapha looked and shrugged indifferently before shutting the room door. She walked back into the room, sighing. Look at the bedside table where the clock is located.

It’s not yet noon...

She went to the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face. Before styling, apply powder on both cheeks. And returned to sitting at the desk as usual. Just as he was about to open the notebook, shouts from downstairs rang out again. Causing her to get up and walk out of the room immediately.

“Why haven’t you taken a shower yet?” Tharatchanan’s high-pitched voice said with much displeasure when he saw her sister refuse to take a shower and change clothes even though she was told that this weekend they must go out to the mall to buy things.

“I didn’t go anywhere. Why are you taking a shower?” Said the young woman as she sat down on the opposite side. She was staring at breakfast in front of her. She had planned to skip breakfast today, hoping the weight she had gained during this period would be reduced. But when she sees her favorite menu in front of her... let her change her mind.

“You don’t have to eat if you haven’t showered yet,” said the sister as she took out the bowl of porridge.

Ladapha looked at her elder sister with great regret but refused to get up and follow suit.

“No,” she says, pouting. Put the spoon down on the table and stand up.

“Go take a shower now.” Her elder sister’s stern voice ordered, the young woman to look at her elder sister with displeasure, “Okay, if you don’t go this month. You don’t have to eat at home; supplies, sanitary napkins, facial soap, cream...”

“Take a shower! Immediately, Ladapha rushed up the steps. She leaned forward and said, “Pay me, too!” before vanishing abruptly.

Tharatchanan looked up and shook his head, saying nothing, already knowing that he had to pay. Of course, Ladapha would never let the amount of money in her account go down. It’s also good to help with the housework and go shopping.

“Let’s go eat hot pot!” Ladapha turned to Tharatchanan as she parked the car.

The older sister turned to skew her mouth to look at Ladapha. “Okay, let’s go buy some things first,” she said with more annoyance. Because Ladapha moved to work in the capital, her mother and brother said, ‘Take care of your sister.’ She had never entered the city before. But who was the source of such stinginess? If it weren’t for her salary being enough to take care of her younger sister, she would not have agreed.

“Yay! The young lady instantly screamed. Since practically all this month’s money has been spent on nonsense, “Having an elder like this is quite beneficial.”

Ladapha turned around and picked up the bag in the back seat while Tharatchanan opened the door and waited outside. The young woman shut the door and walked around to her sister, clinging to her arms and pleading. “Don’t forget hot pot.”

Tharatchanan could only sigh and look at the younger sister’s face as she walked through the door into the department store. When they walked in, the voices of the people were unceasingly loud, including the shouting of the staff in front of the store. Ladapha is uninterested in the voice of a couple conversing. In contrast to her elder sister, who made an annoyed expression.

“After going shopping, we went to eat hot pot. And then continue with some sweets, shall we?”

“No,” Tharatchanan replied in a slightly annoyed tone. It makes it easy for the listener to guess from this fluctuating mood. Of course, it's not something to watch sweet couples walk hand in hand. But her older sister has been past number three for many years and still has no hope of marriage. Her boyfriend never mentioned this matter.

“Even if you don't shout out, 'I want to get married,' your face is obvious.”

Tharatchanan turned around and looked at her with anger in his eyes.

“Today, finish shopping and go home!”

Ladapha stood confused for a moment before hurriedly following her sister.

She’s just telling the truth. You can act like you’re angry!

It took almost three hours to finish buying all the shopping bags. She didn’t think her hands would be this full. Ladapha looked at the item in her hand and hurriedly walked it into the dessert shop. Putting things down, she beckoned her older sister to come in as well.

“You treat.”

“Heartless,” Ladapha said with a disappointed expression. Before turning, order your favorite menu from the staff without having to open the menu to see it.

Even though she understands her sister, this pouting face doesn’t know what happened. Even though she is irritable, he’s not coming to propose now.

“Who will be like you? The age has not yet been reached. You don’t understand the heart of a woman who wants to have a family.”

She doesn’t know whether to laugh or pity her sister. Because the habit of being irritated about matters that are not an issue makes her not like it, she isn’t surprised at all that they haven’t gotten married yet.

“Why are you going to care? If you’re not married, just stay single. I also intend to stay single forever,” Ladapha said with a cheerful expression, unlike Tharatchanan, who made a face of gratitude and disapproval.

“Who would think like you?”

It might be true that she doesn’t understand.

Because she never cared about having a lover at all. More than that, it’s about having complete freedom without being tied down.

Ladapha forced a smile before lowering her head and picking up her cell phone to play with it.

“Did you know that women, when the time comes, want to have a family?”

Sigh... The young woman sighed and shook her head, glancing at her older sister, who kept saying something.

“Now women can live without having to depend on men. I have money.”

“Who would think like you?”

Ladapha looked on and shrugged nonchalantly. As the staff walked in and served the desserts she had ordered,

The young woman focused on the dessert in front of her. But it was too late because Tharatchanan picked up the spoon and scooped it into his mouth first.

“You said you wouldn’t eat it,” she said, looking up.

“I said I didn’t pay. But I didn’t say that I wouldn’t eat.”

“Ash!” The young woman pursed her lips in annoyance. Before taking a spoon and scooping ice topped with strawberries into his mouth.

Enough time had passed until the bowl in front of him was empty. Ladapha turned eyes to follow Tharatchanan’s sister outside.

“What are you looking at?”

“Nothing,” Tharatchanan said. After sitting quietly for a long time, she said, “Just looking at a handsome man is a treat for the eyes.”

“Who?” She continued to look at him with curiosity.

“That tall man in the black shirt,” Tharatchanan pointed out randomly, because her eyes weren’t looking as she said. Her eyes rolled back in confusion. And she thought that just now, it confused her; When saw her boyfriend walking hand in hand with another woman.

Ladapha focused her eyes again on the goal her sister had described. A wry smile appeared on his full lips, and he turned to look at his sister before speaking. “You already have a boyfriend.”

She stared at her sister, who stared at the man for a long time until he disappeared. So, they moved to get up, picked up the things, and walked out of the store.
