My Dreamy Old Husband

It was the last boat to the city and the captain, who had gold teeth, grinned at him. “Hey kid, are you coming?”

Miles mumbled sullenly, “Y-Yes.”

As he wiped his tears, he willed his stiff legs to move forward as he boarded the boat. With that, the boat slowly sailed away.

However, what he didn’t know was that May had been standing behind the little commissary at the dock. In fact, she had been waiting there the entire day. She watched Miles get on the boat and silently cried as she walked along the dock, following the boat that Miles was on…

“That is so sad! Why didn’t May go with Miles? Why? How can they act so well?”

Sophia huffed and puffed. After watching three episodes, almost all of the napkins were used up by her.

Hurriedly, Cooper handed her another box of napkins. “There, there. It’s all fiction; nothing is real.”

As Sophia cried, Carmen cried too. She was wailing miserably when Cooper wiped away her tears as he grimaced. “Why are you crying? You don’t even understand the series.”

Pouting, Carmen sobbed pitifully, “I’m learning from Daddy on how to act in a crying scene!”

Upon hearing this, Cooper was speechless.

Undeniably, Michael’s acting skills were superb. He had embodied the desperation and hopelessness that Miles was feeling as he waited for his lover that never came. He did not need to cry hysterically nor did he need artificial tears; his longing gaze was enough to touch the hearts of the viewers.

He could have been extremely noble, but he was getting more and more creepy instead! Shame on him! Cooper thought.

Although Cooper strongly disliked him, Michael made sure that he would always be with Sophia in a cheeky way. Even if he was away from Bayside City, Sophia was still surrounded by his presence.

Initially, Cooper thought Michael’s reputation would drop after his role as Miles. He had even hoped that Sophia would be reminded of Miles every time she thought of Michael and she would stop liking him. However, he did not expect she would still talk on the phone with him every single day.

Not only that, she would either be on voice call or video call with him for an hour or two.

During their calls, they would talk about Carmen, the dogs, the plot from ‘I Am The Village Chief’, and they would be analysing Miles’ tragic past. Their topics of conversation were endless.
