Let's Get Married

In the end, Rex leaves. She is so conflicted and with such a genuine request, he could not bear to see her struggle anymore. He feels that at that moment his concerns became her burden.

He holds the steering wheel with both hands and looks at the traffic. At that moment, he realizes that it won’t be easy to keep her by his side. He knows that he has a place in Lily’s heart and he has never forgotten her. He thought that everything would be fine if they come back to the starting point. He was too naive to think that way. Apart from emotions, there are too many issues and people between them that require resolution.

As he ponders, the phone rings and he answers with the Bluetooth connection. The call is from his mother, Amelia.

“Rex, I heard that you’re back. This time you left for a long duration, your grandparents miss you. Can you come over tonight for dinner? Just nice Florence is home. We’ll have dumplings for dinner.”

Compare to Amelia’s joy, Rex appears to be cold, “You guys go ahead, I am busy with some matters.”

“What are you busy with?” Amelia knows that her son is busy but she can sense that he is upset with something and could only endure. “Mom knows that your work is important but since your grandparents had requested it, can you reschedule? You should know that these couple of years their health has been declining. We may not have much time with them in the future, they…”

Rex hates to hear Amelia say these and interrupts her, “Okay.”

“Then… are you coming back?”

“Yeah.”

Amelia sighs in relief, “Okay then, I’ll prepare the dumplings and wait for you tonight!”

After ending the call, Rex is frustrated and stops the car by the roadside at a temporary waiting area. The fire within him is lit and he winds down the car windows.

It’s not that he is unwilling to go back but there isn’t anyone at home who understands him. They know that he is busy but do not know what he is busy with. Furthermore, going back for dinner would mean meeting his stepfather. And it’s not that he doesn’t like him, it’s just that he doesn’t know how to interact with him.
