Krathin Rim Rua

After the maid left, Wimalaung had to handle all the housework and business operations on her own. Consequently, she took in Dokmai, the daughter of her close friend Pimpa, to live with her. Dokmai opened up to Wimalaung, revealing that before coming here, she was about to marry her lover, Wongkot, but he was stolen away by Phenchan, and that she was currently pregnant. Wimalaung was shocked, but out of affection for Dokmai, she decided to support Dokmai and her child. Later, Dokmai gave birth to a daughter named Kratin. Meanwhile, Phenchan also gave birth to a boy named Suwinai, or Yik. Afterward, Wongkot heard that Dokmai had given birth and believed the child might be his, so he went looking for Dokmai in Bangkok.
When Phenchan found out, they had a huge argument. Unable to tolerate Phenchan's behavior any longer, Wongkot arranged a transfer to work in a remote province and deposited money into bank accounts, splitting it equally between Kratin and Yik. Wongkot entrusted Kratin’s bankbook and a letter to Wimalaung, to be given to Kratin when she grew up. Yik waited until he graduated, but Wongkot never returned to pick him up as promised. Yik was heartbroken, believing Wongkot had abandoned him to live with Dokmai and Kratin, while Phenchan had abandoned him to go with a singer. Yik was left under the care of Aunt Wian, Wongkot’s younger sister, but she raised him in poverty. Yik ran away from home and associated with bad friends, eventually becoming addicted to drugs. Fortunately, he met Himawat, who sent him to Thamkrabok Temple to get sober, after which he returned to work at Himawat’s boxing camp.
Wimalaung felt it was time, so she called Kratin to talk and told her about Wongkot. That was when Kratin learned that Yik’s life was vastly different from hers. On Yik's side, upon learning that his stepsister had returned, Yik harbored resentment, believing Kratin was the reason his father abandoned him. Kratin went to look for Yik at Himawat’s boxing camp. When Himawat met Kratin for the first time, he was secretly intrigued because she was unlike any woman he had ever met. However, circumstances led Kratin and Himawat to pretend to be a couple. This made Wian, who was trying to snare Himawat, furious; she hated and tried to sabotage Kratin in every way possible. Eventually, Himawat began to appreciate Kratin’s goodness, but both were stubborn.
After the bad times passed, Kratin returned to look after her farm business, and Himawat returned to manage his boxing camp. Their pretense of being a couple ended. Kratin showed no signs of lingering affection for Himawat because she thought he still liked Wian. Himawat was heartbroken and hurt that Kratin rejected his love, so he used force, attempting to ravish her. However, when he saw Kratin crying, he couldn't go through with it. Himawat confessed how deeply he loved Kratin, and Kratin softened, giving herself to him. Kratin felt regret for breaking her mother's teaching not to behave like a "kratin flower by the fence" (an easy girl) that men can easily pluck. Will their love story end this easily?
