Let's Get Married

"Lily, is there still no news about Rex?" Abby is concerned. After so many years, they have a child but haven't got married.

Lily frowns and says in an upset tone "I didn't ask. I guess he doesn't want to be disturbed since he chose to leave."

"Then what about you?" Abby grabs her hand. "Don't only consider the others. Try to take care of your own needs. Go see him if you feel upset."

"Then what?" She says calmly and helplessly, "It won't help except for making us more upset."

It's not that she doesn't want to see that man. She misses him like crazy every day. His figure, his everything, all these linger in her head. No one knows how much determination it takes to restrain her impulse.

"Then you just wait like this?"

"Yes." Lily picks up the glass in front of her and takes a sip. "Six months. I promised him."

Six months.

It's neither too long nor short, but enough to torture one's heart.

Abby is worried about Lily. Lily is so tense every day like a violin string tuned to its tightest state. With a little bit of strength, it will break. Abby is afraid that Lily won't withstand the pressure.

"Have you thought about other possibilities? What if something unexpected happens in six months?"

Abby is not being straightforward, but Lily understands what she means and is prepared. "Then I'll keep waiting until he comes back."

Her remarks about leaving with their son if he doesn't come back after six months are purely said in a moment of anger. After so many years with that man, how can she let go of him?

Abby is surprised at her determination and is somewhat worried. "Lily...."

"Abby, I know you're worried, but I love him so much that I can't control myself." Lily interrupts in a soft voice.

She understands Abby's worries. She understands them all. But in a relationship, there is always someone for whom you're willing to give up everything.
