When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Emery had been complaining about Hunter’s parents since they were newlyweds. She thought it would get better after they had children, but the problem still remained. After giving it some thought, I comforted her, “Fate has brought you together as a family. However, it is normal to have a gap between two generations. It would be best to have more communication with them since they are your husband’s parents. No one would love you two more than they do. Think about it, if your parents were still around, would you find it hard to communicate with them?”

“Maybe,” Emery was still not very enthusiastic and replied listlessly. “My dad was very old when I was born, and we barely enjoyed any quality time as a family when he passed on, so I can only imagine what it would have been like. But it is clearly not working, hence my complaints to you now.”

Hearing her heartfelt words, I realized that she was quite right. Emery was about my age, and after her father passed away, the only family she had was Zachary’s family. Even though they were supposed to be like family to her, there was still a gap between them. This was why she did not understand what it was like to have a good family time.

Everyone was different, and some things simply could not be forced. But there was nothing much I could do except coax her. “Just vent and rant as much as you want if you are unhappy, as long as you don’t say all these in front of Hunter’s parents.”

Emery’s voice suddenly hit a higher pitch. “I’m not dumb. I am hiding in my bedroom right now. Scarlett, you have underestimated me. Even though I am not very happy with this family, the person I want is Hunter. As long as we are fine, I will be able to keep it together. Do you understand?”
