Wan is going to develop some sort of PTSD about Pleng leaving notes before disappearing. Years in the future she sees a slip of paper with Pleng's handwriting and almost has a heart attack just for it to be their grocery list or something

i think it's really interesting that when Pleng figures out she has feelings for Wan, her first instinct is to push her away and try to set her up with Ek, whereas the second Wan figures out that Pleng might return her feelings, she leans in. She teases and tells her she loves her, but reassures Pleng that she can take her time.
Certainly, finding Pleng in the tub was a catalyst-- a push to not deny their feelings -- but before any of this happened, they were very clearly crossing platonic boundaries.
Wan's "are you kidding me? Okay fine, let's go with "friends"" face is perfect. But I think the attempt at drawing that line of friendship is fascinating, because at this point they've already planned a future, and Wan once again steps up to assert that their love is important, whatever they call it.
Wan keeps putting herself out there and telling Pleng how she feels, unafraid who else knows, and Pleng is starting to believe her.
here Wan again challenges Pleng 's idea that there is a limit or a lack in their love, challenges her to recontextualize their relationship, asserts that what they have is enough-- and enough to write a song about and pushes her to rethink, and promises she will wait for Pleng to get there.
Considering their respective realities, you would think it would be easier for Pleng to accept and push for a relationship, given her support supportive parents, money and status, and the insulation that provides.
Then, finally, after she's lost all those things, Pleng is able to see Wan's love is real, and to find the courage to say "I love you" back.
