>>5414176The second story is about 'Khaew’, a woman born in Clawflash.
During her childhood, she spent most of her time working as a maid or a babysitter to keep her family afloat.
After her mother has died, she became a shopkeeper’s assistant. During that time, she fell in love with a restaurant owner.
Despite having more dedication and working harder than many of her peers, it took half a decade before Khaew was promoted to an accountant.
Her spouse’s family was rather hard to deal with, especially his grand parents who had very high expectations for a suitor, and her relatively low salary was a big problem for them, but they eventually gave permission for them to marry.
The marriage was well, but they had problems conceiving. It took two years before she was pregnant.
During the later stages of the pregnancy, her husband died due to falling down the stairs while moving his restaurant’s ingredients.
When she gave birth, the child was mentally retarded. It was financially and emotionally difficult to raise the child. There were many days when she did not have dinner or lunch.
Both of them drowned due to a shipwreck when they went to visit her husband’s family. Age 36 and 7.
Despite living for much longer, did she achieve happiness?
How come she repeatedly suffered misfortune despite her moral actions? Why did karma not reward her?
