    Summary

    (n.) a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was;
    the nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for the lost places of your past

    Gulf Kanawut never once thought that two months after that interview, love would come seeking him— or maybe it was heartache personified in the form of Bright Vachirawit, grinning shyly at him while securely holding his daughter in his arms.

    Summary

    The man points at a name on the menu. “Sine-gerine divided by cosine-gerine?” he says, a hint of a smile wrapped around his mouth. “That’s so bad, who thought of it?”

     

    He says the word bad like it’s something good, so Kao doesn’t take immediate offense to it. “I did,” he says, plucking the menu out of his hands. “I study engineering, and well -- I made the pie.”

    His eyes light up, spotting the pie cooling on the counter. “Is it this one?” he asks, with a kind of boyish excitement that’s infectious, snaking its warm way into Kao’s own body. “Can I have a slice?”

    Kao blinks. He vaguely reminds himself to remember the date and time -- the first time in Blue Sky Café’s short history that someone has asked to try the tangerine pie on purpose, as a first choice instead of something they pick later, if at all.

    Kao works part-time at his friend Sun's new café and bakes fresh tangerine pie every morning. One day, a stranger comes in, laughs at the joke on the menu, orders that same pie - the one that everyone seems to neglect yet Kao still makes every day - first, changing the course of Kao's life forever.
