Thai for Everyone with Kru Robert

Ep. 19 Learn Thai _ How to Say Darling, Sweetheart, and My lover in Thai 

In this post, I reflect on the early days of fatherhood and one big mistake I made when setting expectations for life with a newborn. I share some honest thoughts about the challenges of adjusting to a completely new lifestyle and offer advice for new or expecting parents on how to better prepare mentally for the changes ahead—while also highlighting the joy that comes with it.

История матрёшки

퇴근길이었다.
유하는 늘 그렇듯 이어폰을 꽂고 익숙한 골목길을 걸었다.
벽돌 담 너머로 고양이 한 마리가 느릿하게 지나가고, 오래된 가로등 아래엔 국화꽃 한 송이가 놓여 있었다.

그런데 오늘은, 누군가 그 꽃을 들고 서 있었다.
수트 차림의 낯선 남자. 창백한 얼굴, 그러나 눈빛은 또렷했다.

그는 유하를 보며 말했다.
“유하 씨 맞죠?”

“저를 아세요?”

그는 국화꽃을 유하에게 내밀며 말했다.
“이 꽃, 유하 씨를 위해 준비했어요. 처음 뵙지만… 오늘이 시작이었으면 좋겠네요.”

처음 만나는 사람이, 내 이름을 안다?
그날 밤, 유하는 잠들지 못했다.
그리고 다음 날, 그는 정말 다시 나타났다.

It was on her way home from work.
As always, Yuha walked down the familiar alley with her earphones in.
A stray cat sauntered past the brick wall, and beneath the old streetlamp stood a single chrysanthemum.

But today, someone was holding that flower.
A man in a suit, pale but with piercing eyes.

He looked at her and said,
“You’re Yuha, right?”

“Do I know you?”

He held out the flower to her.
“This flower… I prepared it for you. It's our first meeting, but I hope it’s the beginning.”

A complete stranger knew her name.

That night, Yuha couldn’t sleep.
And the next day—just as he said—he appeared again.

 길고양이 = stray cat

국화= chrysanthemum 

꿰뚫는 듯한 눈빛= piercing eyes 

다시 나타나다= appear again
