MARRYING OLD GRANDPA

DECREE 2

"Mas, I.."

The sky stared at the unblinking orange even though his eyes were sore and wet from the puddles of tears. He even held his breath while waiting for the follow-up sentence that Orange would say.

"I've decided, we're not getting a divorce. But with one condition," said Orange.

The sky smiled even though his eyes were watering. How happy his heart was when it turned out that Orange annulled their divorce. "Whatever the conditions, I'll do it baby." he said.

"First condition, I want us to stay in a separate room even though I'm going back to your house.."

"What?" cut the Sky, the request was certainly burdensome to him. Where he could separate the room with the Orange, but if he refused the conditions, the Orange would definitely change his mind. Maybe the sky should be sincere, separate rooms is okay rather than having to go back to separate houses.

"Why? You disagree with my terms? That's just the first point mas, I haven't said the other points."

The orange turns into the queen. Although the position of Heaven is helpless because of the pain, the woman was actually firm and cold.

But Heaven can accept, such an orange shows how deeply hurt and disappointed the woman feels because of her mistake. "I'm just surprised, I accept dear." he said weakly.

"Second condition, no more physical contact. Our status is husband and wife, but that's just status. I want us to keep our distance even if we live in the same house. I beg you to understand, honestly, when I see you, the pain always comes. The memory of that bad incident made me hate you. I lost my son, it's not an easy thing to forget, it's not an easy thing to let go of."

"And the last point, don't call me that again. That word of affection only adds to the pain for me. Let's just say we're strangers, and consider all this a way for us to better ourselves. Whether it's me or you, we need time to fix hearts."

The sky nodded, her tears kept flowing. "Thank you for the opportunity you gave me. I accept all those conditions, but can I be self-destructive? I want to ask you one thing, may I?"

Orange was silent for a moment, not that he did not hurt to say all those words, his heart also hurt. But it hurts even more when he sees the sky and what he remembers is his dead son. "Say.."

"Before those three points we do, can you be my old wife? Take care of me until I get better. I assume this little time is the last moment for us to be a real married couple. Can't you?"

The orange stared at the sky in silence, and so did the Sky. The man continued to look at his wife with a hopeful look.

"All right, I'll do it."

The words that made Sky smile, at least he could still feel the love of that woman. He will save seconds by seconds the events that he will pass with Orange in these last moments. He stored it in his deepest memory, so that when he missed the orange later, there was a last memory that he could make a cure for his longing.

"Thank you, baby. Can I still call you baby?"

Oranges nod, maybe even an orange will do the same. Keep all the events of these few days as memories.
