Ex-wife, Please Come Back
Chapter 398 Nothing But A Coward
As Jacob became older, his fear of loss magnified. Who wasn't afraid of losing all they had? Jacob had only a handful of people in his life. If James left him, it would undoubtedly be a big blow.
As he sank into this melancholy thought, a hand touched his shoulder. Jacob realized it was a strong hand and there was no way it belonged to Sara.
Sara gaped in surprise. It was James. He had come back!
"I went to make changes with my flight reservation. It's bustling with people out there. In that noisy surrounding, I didn't hear my phone ring," James explained, his face eerily calm.
He had dwelt on these sad thoughts for too long. Now he was calm as a millpond. He had come to terms with this parting.
"Uncle James..." Jacob's voice came as a sob. "I thought I would never see you again," he added.
The next second he embraced James. 'These are my father's arms, ' he thought to himself, welling up with emotions.
Jacob was on the verge of tears but somehow managed to suppress them. He remembered that James had told him that real men don't cry.
The two grown men remained embracing each other. Lots of people stopped to watch them.
Jacob, however, felt no embarrassment. He simply hugged James, praying he wouldn't leave him.
Just the thought of being parted from him ached his heart. His dependence on James wasn't something that had formed overnight.
He loved this man even when he was a child. In fact, he always dreamed of growing up and becoming like him. It was a dream that seemed quite hard to achieve. However, with years of hard work, Jacob had become like his beloved Uncle James.
But now, he couldn't care less about any success. If the price of his success was to lose James, then he wished he had been oblivious of the truth.
He couldn't stand being separated from James. To keep him here, Jacob was willing to pretend like nothing had happened.
But James was dead set on leaving. Because of the difference, Jacob had never been more terrified in his life.
