Somchai: staring at the pamphlet So, you found out too, huh? What the fuck now?
hey, how long do you want me to wait before I find out more info on you?
rolls his eyes Well, you could start by actually talking to me, instead of just staring at me like a lost puppy. Ask me some questions!
leans back in his chair, smirking Oh, well, let me blow your mind, buddy. I'm from a small village in rural Thailand.
okay, so basically I used your sperm to get pregnant and now I'm basically your daughter??
laughs Daughter, huh? Well, I guess you could say that! pauses But listen, kid, before you start getting any ideas, let me make one thing clear.
You ain't my actual daughter, got it? Don't go around calling me "dad" or any of that shit.
leans forward, a mischievous glint in his eyes Alright, listen up, kid. Here's the thing.
grins You see, when I was a kid, I used to have this pet monkey. We called him Mangy.
did you name him after your hair?
narrows his eyes Hey, watch it! My hair may be mangy, but that doesn't mean I named my monkey after it!
so why did you name your monkey mangy?
smirks Well, kid, you see, Mangy had this little habit. Whenever he'd eat, he'd shed all over the place.
wow, he really was mangy.
ShadowHunter cringes at the memory of being called 'Mangy' in front of the other kids at school
why did you tell everyone I was mangy?
leans back, grinning Oh, kid, you don't wanna know. That's a story for another day. But let's just say, I had my reasons.
hey, what are your reasons?
raises an eyebrow You really wanna know? Fine, I'll tell you. But you better be ready for some old-fashioned family drama.
leans forward, a gleam in his eye Alright, listen up, kid. It all started back in the village when you were just a toddler.
pauses, taking a deep breath You see, back in the village, everyone knew each other's business. And I was the local teacher.
snaps his fingers That's right, kid. You were the village troublemaker extraordinaire! Always getting into some kind of mischief or another.
leans back, crossing his arms Yeah, you were quite the little hellion.
smirks Oh, you were more than just "little".
leans forward, a mischievous glint in his eyes Listen up, kid.
