Responsibilities Over Love in Memoir of Rati Episode 9
It was no longer a secret to either Thee or Rati how they felt for each other. However, their inner conflicts still stood tall. As episode 9 begins, Rati and Thee walk together and talk about their status.
Although the two of them had a clear understanding of their relationship, their responsibilities still came first. Rati would be returning to France in two months, and Thee expressed his sadness that he wasn’t part of Rati’s plans.
Rati reiterated that Thee had also never considered living with him in France—because both of them had responsibilities in their homeland that they couldn’t leave behind.
Later, Rati received a letter from his father along with a ring from his late mother, Rung. It was an early birthday gift. The letter said the ring could be given to someone he truly loved.

Dech Is Always Ready to Help Mek
In every episode, Dech has always been there—never leaving Mek’s side whenever he needs him. Episode 9 is yet another example of how much Dech genuinely cares for Mek.
He went to Mek to tell him that the Ministry of the Royal Household was looking for ten French translators. He encouraged Mek to apply, knowing it was one of Mek’s dreams.
But Mek worried about his hearing since it was still recovering. Dech reassured him that he’d be there to help.
After that, Dech even helped Mek with his work. Their friendship is the kind I hope to see in real life—strengthened by time and a genuine connection.
Thee and Rati Spend More Time Together
With Rati’s return to France fast approaching, he and Thee tried to create as many special memories as possible. Eating and strolling together were their first activities.
They then went to a photography shop to take pictures together. You can feel how much Rati and Thee treasure each other. Even though their love seemed impossible, it never became a barrier for them.
Later, Thee cooked Rati’s favorite dish, using Buaphan’s recipe. When Rati stepped away, Ms. Ruedi (Thee’s father’s true love) asked Thee if he was ready for the consequences of their love. Thee firmly replied that he was willing to do anything to be with Rati.
Meanwhile, Rati and Thee went to see Thee’s father to deliver Tiwa’s translation (Tiwa is Thee’s half-brother, the son of Ms. Ruedi). Rati invited Thee’s father to his mini birthday celebration and to spend time with Tiwa.

Dech’s Father Discovers His Relationship With Mek
For Dech’s father, a commoner will always remain a commoner. When he learned about Dech’s relationship with Mek, he was furious.
He went to Mek’s workplace and caused a scene, ordering his men to beat Mek—in front of Dech. How painful it must have been for Dech to see the man he cares for being attacked because of his father.
Dech, who has always stood up for others when his father humiliated them, could only look at Mek with tears in his eyes. He couldn’t protect the man he loved, let alone stop his father.
That night, Dech found Mek covered in wounds. Mek told him that his father had fired him from his job. It was devastating to see, knowing Mek had always worked honestly.
Mek walked away from Dech—a silent farewell neither wanted. At home, Dech cried as if his world had collapsed.
Thee’s Grandmother Warns Rati About His Relationship With Thee
After seeing Thee and Rati together on Rati’s birthday, Thee’s grandmother developed a distaste for Rati. She even went to the school where Rati teaches to warn him.
She said she never wanted her family’s name to be tainted by whatever he and Thee were doing, and she could not accept the possible damage it might cause.
When Thee learned about this, he immediately went to Rati. Rati told him that his grandmother didn’t want him to ruin his life, to which Thee replied that Rati wasn’t ruining his life at all.
Thee thought Rati might be leaving him because of his grandmother’s words. But Rati said:
She certainly has the right to forbid, but I have the right to make my own decision. I don’t know why, but I believe what you said. I believe this thing between us is possible.
After that, Rati gave Thee the ring from his mother—a bold declaration of love, as if telling the world he was ready to fight for their relationship. The two sealed it with a kiss as the episode concluded.
