Beyond the Divorce

After moving to Pleca Park, the kids and my parents were happy.

Atlas had somehow managed to set up two spacious and dreamlike rooms. Even I couldn't resist the idea of sleeping in them.

My childhood memories were hazy and confused me, after all. But the rooms before me seemed like something out of a dream. Ava was clearly thrilled. She was acting giddy with excitement and would not go to sleep.

After finally getting them to sleep, I went to check on my parents' room.

My mom secretly pulled me aside and asked in a hushed tone, "How much did Atlas spend on building such a big house? It's huge. It's such a waste. Back in our hometown, I thought the teachers' college was empty, even when all the teachers were living in it."

I burst into laughter at her words. They weren't even on the same scale.

However, I knew they were both very satisfied.

My dad, on the other hand, kept talking to me. He mentioned that the backyard here was spacious and could grow various plants.

I chuckled and told him, "Small plants are nice, but I don't encourage turning this into a farm."

My dad laughed heartily. I rarely saw him this happy.

In my memory, he had always been reserved, especially after he ended up in the hospital because of my issues. He had been gloomy since.

Seeing him smile so happily now, I also felt genuinely happy.
