Chapter 9 — Honeymoon Leaves Only Divorce
That emotional part, and that city. Seems like just a nightmare of mine. Now, the nightmare has awakened, now there is only endless morning sunlight and a road filled with starlight. Mountains have peaks, lakes have banks. On the long journey of life, everything will have a way out. Side story: Bui Tinh Nghieu When I was 19 years old, I met Lam Tieu, and as soon as we met, I fell in love. She is mischievous, bright and courageous, like the wind running freely across a desolate field. The moment our eyes met, her face turned red. I was moved. At the age of 20, I cut ties with my family and went to Beijing alone to start a business. My girl followed me despite everything, living in a basement of only 5 square meters. Humid, cramped, clothes never dry. Looking at her sleeping face snuggled in my arms, I vowed to give her a good life. She is very good, from vision to speaking ability, everything is excellent. In the beginning, many customers came out of respect for her. At 23 years old. The company goes into orbit. I bought this lakeside villa, she really liked it. When the company stabilized, I felt sorry for her and told her to stay at home and be a full-time wife, taking care of the home base. On that year's anniversary, I asked her where she wanted to travel. She said she wanted to go to the island, but was afraid that the company wouldn't be able to leave without people. I promised to choose that island as the destination for our honeymoon. At 25 years old. A friend's company has a new secretary. At the drinking table, they were about to introduce me. My mind is hot, I agree. My name is Vu Tinh. She looks a lot like Lam Tieu when she was young, radiant and full of life. It's just that he works very stupidly, not as smart as Lam Tieu, but still has the adorable clumsiness. At 29 years old. I am alone in a large villa. Empty, quiet and lifeless. Every time I finish receiving guests, I return alone to an empty house. I used my hands to loosen my tie and lazily called out: "Tieu Tieu, I'm so thirsty." But no one turned on a heating lamp for me. No one poured me a cup of hot water. There is no longer a bowl of perilla porridge every morning. In response to me, there was only darkness and boundless silence. At this moment, the overwhelming regret weighed so heavily that I couldn't breathe. I once again picked up the phone and skillfully booked a plane ticket to the island. I told the driver to take me to the airport, then just sat there stupidly, waiting for the earliest flight the next day. Lam Tieu doesn't know. In fact, over the years, every time I missed her, I secretly went to that island to see her. Look at her smiling brightly from the bottom of her heart in school. She is no longer my caged bird, but has become an eagle free to fly. Just like when we first met. At 31 years old. Lam Tieu is married. I gave it to the investigator. That person graduated from the top 3 universities in the country, has a prosperous family background, is emotionally stable, and is someone she met while traveling. Later, that man followed Lam Tieu and also went to the fishing village to teach. They often walk along the beach in the late afternoons. The quiet sunset light shined on them, making them look extremely well matched. As for me, this half year has spent almost all my time staying on the island. Sneak peek at happiness their happiness, like a mouse in the dark stalking the lives of other people's homes. I know it's not good, but I can't help it. At 36 years old. Lam Tieu gave birth to a daughter, who looked very similar to her. Later, when the girl grew a little older, it was truly like she was cast from the same mold as her. Lam Tieu seemed to have completely forgotten me. I mustered up the courage to go and greet her.
