- The name, Nawin, the name! The monk told my mother that it was an unlucky name and I needed to have it changed.
- I like your name. I cannot see anything unlucky in it. For what reason? Why do you need this name change?
- To escape bad luck.
- Yes but how? You are with me so I cannot see how are you unlucky. She shrugged her shoulders and he put away his brush and walked over to her. You look like a Panyaporn to me.
- Either you believe in the monks' intuition or not. My mother does so I have a new name to improve my life…to become more happy, wealthy, successful.
- Poor and ignorant men in orange cloth leading the nation of Thailand and the simpletons within it, he thought. Still he smiled, for the Buddhism of the Thais had such ineffable beauty the way a sunset was both true and lovely and he did not know why. He did not want to think but to devour his girlfriend's succulent skin in voracious kisses and he did just that until she backed away. What is wrong? You are with me. How much luckier can you be? Do you give your mother the money you earn here?
- Of course. She is happy to have it. She is pleased to sell my looks.
- You are lucky then. So do I still call you by the nickname of
"Porn?"
- No my real name. My new one is best.
- What is it?
