Chapter 12 — The Last Stop of Marriage

Wait until... I have all the cards in my hand. I want Tran Huy. And his whole family. Must be physically and mentally disabled. No longer just for myself. But because ten years of youth were stolen by them. Because of the love and support my parents gave me. I want my son to see clearly. After all, what kind of person is it? A few days later. Perhaps Tran Huy realized I had completely cut off all contact. He started to panic. Through a friend. Only after trying to get in touch with me.

"Tham Nhien."

"What do you want anyway?"

"The phone doesn't answer."

"WeChat also did not respond."

"Do you still want to continue living with me?"

That tone... Still as blatant as before. I laughed.

"Why don't you want to?"

The other end of the line immediately lit up.

"Then I'll go home!"

"Let's sit down and talk properly!"

I agreed very quickly.

"Let's have a weekend."

"I took Lac Lac to the amusement park."

"We'll meet there."

Maybe he didn't expect me to be so easy to talk to. There was silence for a few seconds. Then quickly replied:

"Okay... okay!"

"It's decided!"

He hung up immediately. Like I'm afraid if I just slow down a little... I'll change my mind. I looked at the phone screen. The smile on your lips... It's getting colder day by day. Maybe you think... I've softened. I want to give you a way out. But you are wrong. I just want... To personally look at you again. Look at the man who lied to me for ten years... Look in front of me... How much can you still act. By the way... Give me a big gift. But for the rest of my life... I will never forget. The sky is clear blue without a single cloud. I intentionally dress modestly. Wear your best dress. One-layer makeup is so delicate. The person in the mirror is radiant, his eyes bright. As if the past more than half of the past gloomy month... Never existed. I went to Tran Huy's house to pick up Lac Lac first. The person who opened the door was the mother-in-law. As soon as she saw me, she immediately smiled warmly.

"You're home already! Come inside quickly! Mom's already stewing soup for you."

She enthusiastically grabbed my hand. As if anything had never happened between us.

"No need, Mom."

I gently withdrew my hand, still keeping a polite smile.

"I promised to take Lac Lac to the amusement park."

"Okay okay."

"Let's go have fun."

She pushed Lac Lac next to me.

"Lac Lac, you have to listen to mother."

She leaned close to my ear and lowered her voice.

"What happened before was wrong with my mother."

"Mom, I'm sorry."

"Don't be angry with Tran Huy anymore."

"She always has a child in her heart."

I looked into her sincere eyes. Almost... If I hadn't seen those documents.

"It's over."

I gently patted her hand. My smile... More sincere than yours. Lac Lac was very happy. All the way to the amusement park, the boy chattered non-stop. Looking at my child's smiling face... My heart suddenly ached. Sorry, child. What I'm about to do... It might hurt you. But mom... There's no other choice. Short pain... Better than a lifetime of pain. Go to the park gate. Tran Huy was already waiting. Just saw me. His eyes immediately lit up. He walked quickly. Out of habit, he reached out to hold my hand. I slightly leaned away to avoid it. Confusion only briefly appeared on his face. Then it was quickly hidden. He picked up his son. Give me a strong kiss the boy's cheek. The scene of a gentle father and a good son... Perfectly warm. The three of us played the merry-go-round together. Take the mini train. Tran Huy seemed extremely thoughtful. Buy me water. Cover me with an umbrella. Help me carry my bag. We are still a happy family. I also coordinated with him. Play with your child. But in my heart... I'm quietly counting down. Three o'clock in the afternoon. Lac Lac was tired of playing. Falling asleep on the bench in the rest area. Tran Huy sat down next to me. He spoke cautiously.

"Let's see..."

"Isn't this great?"

I looked at the colorful pinwheels spinning in the wind. Maybe he thought... I was soft-hearted. Should be more bold.

"When will you move back?"

"I can't live without you in the house."

"That agreement..."

"I see if I can..."

Finally... The true purpose is revealed. I turned my head to look at him.

"Tran Huy."

"Do you love me?"

He was stunned. Immediately after that, he nodded vigorously.

"Of course love!"

"The person I love the most in this life..."

"It's you and Lac Lac!"

He spoke sincerely. Full of emotions. I smiled softly.

"What about Vuong Le?"

I saw clearly... Tran Huy's face immediately turned pale.
