When we left for Pattaya a few days later there was another little farewell present I was asked to provide. Som’s mother wanted to buy three more cows and I had to pay. One cow was 10,000 baht and the mother wanted 30,000 baht.

I wondered what the villagers did with their cows and what kind of goals they had set with their cattle. The cows didn’t give milk and they didn’t eat them as far as I understood. The cattle stay in the stable or on the field and you have nothing but work. Sometimes they bought cows and sometimes they were sold.

We went to Phu Khieo and Som and her mother went to the bus station to buy tickets to Khorat while I went to 7-Eleven to eat a hamburger. After many uncountable days with sticky rice and somtam I had to have something real between my teeth.

“Don’t forget to go to the bank!” Som shouted after me.
