Rules of Engagement

Soren held her tightly and buried his head in her shoulder, without saying anything for a long time. Elsa's heart ached, but she couldn't say anything. Holding her in his arms, Soren felt her will and intention that she tried her best to convey. Sometimes he believed that the family member he chose was more intimate than the family member he couldn't choose to bring up, which gave him more power and sense of intimacy.

Elsa's voice was choked with sobs. She held his waist and hugged him tightly.

After a long while, he let go of her and said softly, "But from today on, I'm willing to try my best..."

"Ren, don't do this for me..." Elsa felt guilty and remorseful. She only hoped that he could walk out of the shadow for himself. She wouldn't push him to do anything he disliked.

"For me too." He smiled brightly and said, "I have always been longing for a good relationship between husband and wife and a warm family. If I have a child in the future, I want him to truly feel the power of family and the love of parents without reservation. I would never transfer my burners to him or her from the very beginning. As for my father, I also want to open my heart to try to get close to him and his family, instead of always escaping from them. Escaping has never been the right way to do things. Some problems could only be solved when you bravely face them. Although it's a little difficult for me... But I believe that everything will be good, right?"

Elsa was a little shy when he mentioned the topic about family and children, but she still nodded in agreement. "Yes."

"Give them a ladder and save me from the deep well. Do you remember?" Soren crooked his index finger and hooked her nose.

It never occurred to her that he still remembered what she had said. Pursing her lips, she said with a smile, "I hope you can be really happy, Ren."

"I will. I promise." He nodded solemnly and held her hand. "Let's go. The pharmacy is about to close."

When they returned home, Blanche was preparing a hot towel for Johnson in the kitchen, but she was absent-minded for several times. When Elsa entered the door and changed her shoes, she saw her mother and asked with concern, "Is Dad asleep?"

"Yes. Your father just drank too much. " Blanche complained.

"Don't blame him. He really enjoyed himself tonight. Aren't you happy for your daughter?" Pulling her mother's sleeve, she took out the sober tea and made it for her father. "Let my father drink some when he wake up. His stomach won't be so uncomfortable when he get up in the morning."
