Chapter 4

Tutor went to the remaining three companies in charge of supplying chemicals to Daylinx company but they all refused to help.
    It's nighttime and Tutor arrives at home exhausted. Miss Cheer who is standing at the entrance of the sitting room speaks to Tutor.
"Madame Ahn wants to talk to you."
Tutor sighs before replying.
"Can't it wait till tomorrow? As you can see I'm really exhausted."
But Miss Cheer remains unfazed."She said immediately you come back home you should meet her."
   Tutor tiredly walks to his grandmother's room. He knocks before entering in and sitting down.
"I'm back Grandmother." Tutor greets with a waai.
"I know you were totally hopeless in your quest today. You didn't convince any of the suppliers." Madame Ahn mocks Tutor.
"I did my best but there's nothing I could do about it."
"Your best wasn't enough. But I know a way to save us from this mess."
It was as if the exhaustion totally left Tutor as he sprung up in hope. "What's that grandmother?"
"Marry Mr Thananan's son, Tharn."
    Tutor didn't yet understand what his grandmother just said. Then his grandmother repeats herself.
"Marry Tharn. It's the only way to save my company." Madame Ahn says.
"I'm not ready to marry. I can't get married to the man responsible for the reason our company is passing through this."
"You have heard me, agree to the marriage. Atleast prove to me that me adopting you wasn't a waste."
"No, I won't get married to Tharn. Don't you even know his history in marriage? He's past two lovers are dead. His first partner, a wife committed suicide and the second, a man who is missing. How can I marry such a man?" Tutor shows utter disgust thinking of his marriage to Tharn.
"Then you leave me no choice." Madame Ahn says. "Bring them in."
  Immediately two hefty men dressed in white shirts and trousers grab hold of Tutor's hands. Tutor begins struggling but they were alot stronger than me.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" Tutor yells.
"Until you have made a decision to marry Tharn you aren't leaving the mental asylum."
"You can't do this to me. Yes, mom and dad will look for me."
"Not when I tell them you went for bridal training for your marriage. I know you will accept, you just need alittle push."
   The hefty men drag Tutor to the ambulance waiting right outside their house. Tutor purposely falls to the ground so that its harder for the men to drag him. Despite that they still drag him. He looks behind him and sees Miss Cheer and Madame Ahn looking at him with no emotion in their face.
"Miss Cheer, Please help me." Tutor pleads for her interference but she just stands there doing nothing. Madame Ahn walks into the house and very soon Miss Cheer joins her.
They put Tutor in the ambulance and they drive off heading to the mental asylum.
  
       Tharn drops his phone call after hearing about Tutor. He turns to Fighter standing beside him.
"Madame Ahn is very... pursuasive. I cant believe she could do that to her own grandson just to convince him to marry me." After he laughs a bit, he continues. " I want you to go to Lam mental asylum and see how Tutor is doing but don't make your presence known."
  Fighter nods and heads off to the mental asylum.

     Tutor jolts up from his sleep. He immediately takes notice of the white walls and celling of the room he is in. He feels dizzy for a moment but he quickly recovers. He quickly runs to the door and tries opening it but it doesn't budge. He bangs on the door rapidly and screaming but no one answers him. He looks at himself and sees that he dressed in white clothes. After some minutes, food is brought by one of the staff to Tutor. Miss Cheer walks in with the staff.
"Miss Cheer!" Tutor gasps in surprise. "Please get me out of here." Tutor pleads.
"All you have to do is marry Tharn. It isn't so hard."
"Why should I marry such a man? Don't you know his history in Thailand?"
"You would sacrifice your family just because of your self worth?" Miss Cheer says with disgust in her voice. "This is the least you could do for the family that brought you in."
    As all this is said, Fighter is at the wall listening to what Miss Cheer is telling Tutor. Fighter peeps a little into the room and sees how devastated Tutor is looking. His hair is scattered, his skin looks so dry and dark circles under his eyes. He quickly leaves seeing the conversation is almost over.
    Miss Cheer leaves the room despite Tutor's pleading. He kicks the plate of food on the ground in anger. He sits on his bed and drags his knees close to himself and hugs himself tightly. He stares into nothing.
   
     7 year old Tutor shyly walks into the house and stares at how large the mansion is. White painted house with decorative furniture everywhere. He doesn't know his mouth is wide open until he sees another boy with the same height as him giggles and tells him to close his mouth. Tutor quickly closes his mouth.
"Your house is very big and beautiful." Tutor says admiring the house.
"I'm glad you love the house. I always wanted someone to stay with me in this house." Tharn smiles.
"I'm Tutor."
"I'm Tharn. You are welcome."

    Tutor goes to the door with tears dripping out of his eyes.
"I will marry Tharn." He yells out making sure they heard him.
