20 WEDDING PLANSLek had come in after Craig had already gone to sleep, so when they woke up, Lek said excitedly, “Good morning, my dear. I have some really good news. You know that it is Loy Krathong next month? Well, the monk said that the following week is good for marrying. Loy Krathong is Tuesday, so we can marry on Saturday! Isn’t that romantic? And we have about four weeks to get everything ready. Isn’t that just perfect? Oh, we could not have wished for better luck. This is a very good sign.” “Yes, that’s great, love. We need to talk about money too. I will give you the gold you want, but I am limiting the party here to sixty thousand Baht and we will use the other forty on a honeymoon in Pattaya, OK?” “Yes, darling, that is fine. Come on, let’s have breakfast and get started.”
