My world collapsed instantly, I sat on the sofa. My weak hand gripped the edge of the sofa, doing it as if I could endure the pain in my chest. The deep pain of thinking about the possibility that my husband would leave me. Expelling me from the place that makes me most peaceful and peaceful.

"I'm gonna get out of here, Dave. Deliver my deepest apologies to her." I stood up, went to my husband's desk, quickly grabbed my bag.

"Franda," Dave stopped me with his sudden move pulling my hand.

I looked into his eyes, begging him to let me go. "Please, Dave. I want to get out of here. I can't stay here. I am the daughter of a cruel man who took away your family's happiness. You can't coexist with people you hate. You should hate me, Dave. You should hate me like Sean hates me. Sean hates me... Sean hates me, Dave."

Dave came forward and hugged me, "Franda, that's not true. Sean loves you. He's forgotten his grudge, Franda."

I looked desperately at Dave who was in front of me. "What else am I supposed to tell him, Dave? I'm the daughter of the man who killed her mother. I'm a bad guy, Dave!" With tears streaming down my cheeks and dress, I ran towards the exit. Before he could reach the doorknob, Dave again pulled me until I staggered back into his arms.

"Don't go, brother-in-law." asked Dave in a hoarse and soft voice. And I heard him cry. "Who else would have accompanied him if not you? Who else would make him smile? You've come to bring happiness to him, Sean's been happy ever since you accepted him, Franda. Will you destroy it again? Do you have a heart, Franda?"

Dave shook my body in his arms. I'm getting ruined. I've made the man I just met mad because of me. "But he hates me, Dave. Sean hates me." I said, looking up at him.

Dave shook his head, "He loves you. He loves you so much."

"No, Dave. I couldn't see him hurt because of my family. I'll never be able to."

"Franda," Dave's two hands jerked my shoulders. "Sean loves you. Sean needs you, too. You're the person she needs most right now. Your love is magical, Franda. Your love is a gift to him. Don't curse him back to stone. Help him, Franda. Please. Please Sean."

The tears that pressed my eyes grew stifling, "Dave..."

And Dave's tears are crushing me, "Franda, you don't know what he's been through all this time. Sean blames himself for what happened to Aunt Lily, Sean suffers from the loss of his mother. You came and changed her life, Franda. Sean loves you. Sean even fought to forget his grudge against your family."

"But he's so mad at me, Dave..."

"No. Sean was surprised. He hasn't been in that room again in two years. I'm sure he's just surprised to see you there. The shadow of the slowly forgotten Aunt Lily must have appeared. Franda, I know him. Sean won't leave you."

"But, Dave..."

Drowning, the bag I was holding slid down onto the floor from my hand. Dave brought me back to life about the meaning of happiness in my life. I can be happy with the little things. Sean's smile that greeted me in the morning, his laughter as I teased him, even his gaze as I disturbed him. "Oh my God, take me to him, Dave. I have to see him. He's my husband I'll never leave forever."

Dave shook his head, "Not now, Franda. Give him time to calm down. Wait for him at home. Sean's going home. No matter how long it takes, wait for him. Sean's coming back for you."

I'm luluh. I'm following Dave's words. I have to give time to my husband. I realized how broken he was right now. My loving husband is ruined because of my family. My gentle husband is sad because of me.

"Hey, Franda," Dave led me back to the couch. "Quiet, okay? Sean's coming back to you. She's gonna be okay, okay?" Dave grabbed a tissue and thrust it at me.

I greeted the tissue she gave me and rubbed it on my cheek. "I know him very well, Franda." exclaimed Dave. "You know? That husband of yours even had more injuries than that when he fought a tiger in the forest. When my friends and I tried to help her, she got up looking fucking as if nothing had happened. Gosh, you wouldn't think he wiped out that tiger so easily."

My lips smiled faintly imagining the moment. My husband is so strong that this heart feels very anxious to embrace him. But most people probably don't know the bad memories that put a strain on her life, leaving her crying and tormented, including myself. "Yes, he is amazing" I said half embarrassed and hesitant. "But we know not only his body can be hurt, but also his heart. And all the problems that hurt him are related to me. My family and I have ruined her life."

I took a trembling breath, "If he asked me to leave his life, I resigned even though my heart was broken and would never heal. But I think that's a fair reply for me. There is not even a proper recompense for the suffering he has endured over the years. He has every right to hate me for the rest of his life. He has the right to dump me forever."

My smile faded. Sobbing at the thought of no more Sean smiles in my life. There might not even be another look of fire on me because she would never want to see me again.

Dave rubbed my sincere shoulders, "Franda, calm down. His attitude is sometimes harsh, but he will never be able to hurt the heart of his loved ones. Shelove you. You just have to wait for him to be ready to talk about this."

I smiled again at the sobbing. My hand gently patted the arm of the man who had the posture of my husband, "Dave, thank you for supporting me. I will forever remember your kindness. I'm not gonna tell him if you hug me, he'll kill you."

"Yes, no doubt. I'll end up like a tiger in the woods."

Dave chuckled hoarsely like me as he rose, "Come, I'll take you upstairs. Your family's gonna be waiting." Dave extended his hand to me.

I welcomed her helping hand and got up, following her steps out of my husband's study.

"Don't cry, Franda. I'm sure Sean wouldn't like to see tears on your cheeks. He was the man who protected his loved ones the most" Dave exclaimed before we exited the room.

"Yes, he is." I replied bitterly. I'm the luckiest woman to have a husband as warm and gentle as Sean. But right now, I don't know if he still wants me or is ready to kick my family out of his place. I will not leave him, never will. As hard as he threw me out, I would force my way to stay by his side.
