My Cold Paid Husband

Episode 90: The Complicated Love (Part 1)

That night, the two of them ran to one end of the deserted airport.

The night wind slowly hit the two of them.

The sound of the plane taking off accompanied the silence between the two of them.

Antony allowed Jas to wear Emelin so he wouldn't get cold, nor did he let Emelin calm down, so he didn't say anything or ask.

Emelin herself was still full of her own thoughts, recalling the words of that Stepmother.

A fact that Emelin would never have thought about the marriage of his parents.

When she was a child, Emelin sometimes saw how her mother cried alone in her room, because her father did not come home and did not call for a few days.

The loneliness that his mother experienced when his father left.

Or sometimes, his mother would also feel sad to see how his father treated himself coldly, he always tried to comfort Emelin at that time.

Sometimes his mother would hug him, saying things that tried to calm him down at that time,

'It's okay Emelin, there'll always be Mama by your side. Your father will love you too.... You are proof of your Mama and Papa's love....'

Emelin when he was a child he did not realize it, but now he understands.

His father's attitude towards him was always so cold, it was because his father probably hated him, hated his mother who made him part with the person he loved.

Her mother may have been so selfish before to get her father, but did she deserve such cold treatment for so many years?

Just because his mother still loves his father so much, that's why his mother lasted for so many years, even if he was hurt.

Does love have to be like that?

Shouldn't love bring joy and happiness?

Why is it as if her Mama's love for her Papa only makes her Mama miserable?

Love can be so strange.

The more Emelin thought about the mass and about his mother, slowly tears came out.

Antony certainly saw that,

"Emelinu? What was? Why are you crying?"

But Emelin did not reply, she just suddenly hugged Antony, trying to find warmth from the man next to her.

Emelin wanted to share a little of his heart with others, maybe it could make him feel more relieved.

"I just heard a few things from those people."

Antony didn't let go of his embrace, just stroked his hair lightly, tried to comfort him, he of course knew who 'those people' Emelin meant, definitely to Claudia and Cornelia's Stepmother.

What else did those two trashy women do to Emelin?

How many hurtful things have they done to Emelin?

It can't be counted with fingers.

Thinking about it now even they made Emelin cry again, anger appeared in Antony's heart.

It was obviously uncomfortable to see Emelin crying again because of those people, people she didn't deserve to tag.

"You don't listen to their words, they can't be trusted, the things that come out of their mouths are just lies." Antony tried to cheer Emelin up.

"Hmm, I also want to not believe it but...."

"Don't listen to them, please,"

"I just thought that their words could be partly true,"

"What did they really tell you?"

"It's about my mom,"

Hearing that, of course Antony was quite surprised,

"Yes, what happened to your mother?" Ask curiously.

"They said that it was my mother who initially forced my father to marry her. Separating my father from his girlfriend at the time was Claudia's mother. I thought about it, how my father always acted cold to me and also to my mother... She still holds a grudge against Mama..."

"They said my mother was evil, used her wealth to get whatever she wanted, did evil things to get my father, to the point of ever harming someone,"

Listening in silence to the things that Emelin began to overflow, he said,

"My mother loved my father very much... He loved her more than anything in his life... But he married my father in untrue ways, in unjustified devious ways. But he has tried his hardest to try to get the person he loves... My mother only wanted to be happy with the person she loved and loved well by her, but she ended up blinded by her love for my father. My mom just fell in love with my dad... Why is falling in love so complicated? Is it wrong for my mom to want to be loved by the one she loves so much? And after doing whatever he can to try to get love from my father... My mother finally she had a bad ending for pursuing her love... Thinking about it again, love is indeed so nauseating and full of pain, it makes me not want to fall in love again..."

From here, Emelin began to once again shed her tears, unable to resist the urge, in Antony's arms.

Antony himself does not know what to say, he is not good at comforting words.

He is also not very good at things about love...

Love is so complicated and sometimes painful.

He only fell in love once...

And it ended badly too.

For years he pursued that person, trying to be someone worthy of him....

Try and struggle for years during his school days to become a better person...

And so sincerely loved her...

But in the end his true feelings never reached him...

It was as if his efforts were free years...

After thinking about it, Antony also began to feel that maybe he was in love with the wrong person....

There's no point in chasing that kind of love anymore.

Sometimes he is also afraid to fall in love again, if it will only end in futility as before...

Yet...

It was also no reason not to be able to fall in love anymore, so he then said confidently to Emelin, saying,

"There is nothing wrong with love. Maybe only your mom found the wrong person for her to love. So don't be afraid to fall in love."

That's right, just maybe haven't found the right person to love.

"Is that so? Is there nothing wrong with my mother's love for my Papa?"

"Only.... Your father was too much of a jerk, and didn't understand your mother's love."

"But my father only loved his first love so much...."

"Then what? Wasn't she married to your mother? He should have thrown away his mass when he was married, no longer thinking about his mass love, because there was someone in front of him whom he had married, focused on loving him as sincerely as he heart. If I were in his position, I would still choose the woman in front of me... Will never see a woman again in the past, not even how great the old love was. Because there's already a married woman, who's going to be the future, and a woman's going to always be the mass,"

"Ah? Did I?"

Emelin let go of his embrace, trying to stare Antony in front of him.

And there were eyes full of confidence there.

Makes Emelin want to ask, though,

'What about you now? Do you want to try loving me too?'

Emelin did not dare to ask.

Still afraid of the answer.

Just heard a few more words from Antony, though,

"Hmm, yeah. He even cheated like that for years, ignoring your Mama. Your dad really is a jerk."

"That's right, my dad's too much of a jerk, it's damn shit my mom could fall in love with a jerk like my dad"

"That's right, her love life might be too bad."

A little curious, Emelin tried to ask,

"Then what about you? What about your love life?"

Antony was a little surprised by Emelin's sudden question.
