Quick Precis

Honesty is the backbone of the marriage.  If it is broken, can it survive?

Episode 1

Yuanta was being a bridezilla.  She was upset that the wedding dress she chose was not as pretty as when she first saw it.  She asked if she could perhaps change it but the assistant reminded her that the wedding was in a few days.

Yuanta was going to throw a major tantrum but  Neawprai turned up and ended up bedding her which calmed her down but her father turned up unexpectedly.

Neawprai went to see Yuanta’s father who came to dissuade him from marrying his spoilt daughter.  Neawprai told him that he really loves Yuanta.

Yuanta went downstairs and told her father that she was marrying Prai because he was the only decent man she has ever known since she was born.

The wedding went ahead and the two went on an extended honeymoon for two months.

Poor Prai should have heeded Yuanta’s father’s advice and not married her because she is a damaged good.  she is insane.  Hard work.

But five years later…

Prai is doing well at his job but he kept being sent to business trips by his father-in-law which only annoys Yuanta.

When Prai arrived after a few days of being away, he found their apartment a disorganised and dirty.  Yuanta was dressed up to the nines to go out.

Yuanta told him not to bother her social life and she would not bother his business life which he would not have if she had not married him.

Yuanta then went to a bar and met a lover.

Meanwhile, the other couple Jom and Ple.

Ple is being railroaded by her mother to marry Jom.  She was not really ready but it looks like the wedding is a done deal.

Ple lives with her cousin, Lee, who is really jaded about marriage and quite envious of Ple.  So she was putting a downer on Ple’s excitement of being proposed to and getting married.

Ple became uneasy and went to see Jom who was just leaving to meet up Nuan, his girlfriend, who was threatening to reveal all to Ple if Jom does not visit her that night.
