PART 1 · LESSON 9 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES
The Invitation Card
A bench at the pier, the card's proof on Tee's phone: Nam sent the card, read it with me; we respectfully invite you to honour us with your presence at the wedding; who talks like that? Cards talk like that, not people; at the house at the pier, Saturday the twenty-first; the water-pouring at ten; the party at the pier, at six in the evening; print two hundred: the written Thai of an invitation, read and never said.

THE STORY
A bench at the family's pier at Bang Rak on an evening in the cool season, the proof of the invitation card on Tee's phone: Jack and Tee speak as friends, no particle; the card is read in the written register.
