Zenaya's remorse

Chapter 76: Childhood Photos.

Today, Zenaya is at the Walker family residence to fulfill Jennia's invitation. The woman, who had just left the wheelchair, invited her two beloved daughters-in-law to make a cake together.

Since Reagen had left first for the office, Jennia finally asked Sean, another Walker family driver, to pick up her youngest son-in-law.

With the help of several chefs, they make a variety of sweet dishes, such as Lemon Drizzle Cake, Welsh Cake, Muffin, to Pim's drinks without alcohol.

While waiting for the cake to cook, Jennia invited her two daughters-in-law to look at a photo of their husband's memories as a child.

"Krystal's seen it a lot, and now you have to see it too, honey." Jennia handed a stack of old photo albums in front of Zenaya.

Zenaya deliberately sat down while leaning on the sofa, to make it more comfortable. One by one he opened the photo sheet by sheet.

Zenaya looked amazed, because her mother-in-law was so good at taking care of her family photo albums. He even painstakingly arranged the photos in sequence, from time to time.

The first photo that Zenaya saw was a photo of the Reagent. The first sheet contains a portrait of Jennia who was pregnant with her youngest child.

Young jennia is so beautiful and charming. Although she was pregnant, she still held a five-year-old Noah. In the next photos, Jennia even carried Noah in the back.

"Sister Noah seemed very agile," said Zenaya with a witty look.

"Indeed. Mama thought, she would be an ignorant child when her sister was born, but she wasn't. Noah loved Rey." A maternal smile was imprinted on the beautiful face of the mother. Although he was 6-headed, the wrinkles still looked faint on his face.

His skin still looks tight. So does Craig who still looks handsome. It was only natural that the lives of his two in-laws were still very harmonious.

Their affection reminds Zenaya of her parents.

Zenaya opened the next photo sheet. There was a photo of Reagent crawling towards his father.

"What a handsome man!" zenaya exclamations spontaneously. His young face was even more handsome than that of his two sons.

Jennia laughing. "Your reaction just now was exactly like your sister when you first saw her," said the woman as she glanced at Krystal who was giggling.

Zenaya turned to Krystal and laughed.

He then opened another photo. Including one of the photo sheets that make Zenaya fixated instantly.

At first, Zenaya felt that she might have seen it wrong. He asked the mother for permission to remove the photo.

"Please, Honey." Jennia nodded her head.

After Jennia gave her permission, she took it off the photo album. Looking closely, the portraits of the people in the photo, moreover, were portraits of a little girl standing next to a handsome boy.

"This is Rey, Ma?" ask Zenaya.

"Yes, honey," Jennia replied.

After convincing himself of what he saw, Zenaya gave a surprised shriek. "This is Hou Van God Orphanage!"

"You know that place, honey?" ask Jennia.

"Very well, Ma, and it's me!" Zenaya pointed at the figure of the little girl standing beside Reagen. "This is our hospital,"

Jennia and Krystal inching closer to Zenaya. Both of them looked at the photo and read the banner that lay there.

"Thank you to Winston General Hospital and Cole Inc. for your kindness in providing us with a free service. May the love of God always be with you."

"Oh, my God!" peekik Jennia's. He was completely unaware of the photo, as he had not seen it for a long time. And so did Krystal.

The two women laughed. "You are meant to be together" said the two almost simultaneously.

Zenaya did not know what to say, other than to respond to the words of her brother-in-law and in-laws with an embarrassed laugh. Because the woman's memory suddenly revolved around her conversation with Natalie last time.

"Before you loved him, Rey had loved you first, long before you realized the man's presence at school."

Now he knows what Natalie's words mean.

A feeling of pleasure and discomfort as well as a twist of arms filled Zenaya's heart.

The pain that Reagents felt over his self-rejection, must have been much greater than what he felt himself.

Reagents treated him wickedly only temporarily, whereas he was barely a dozen years old.

Zenaya gently stroked the small figure of the Reagent. A series of apologies pinned by Zenaya for her beloved husband.

...***...

Knowing Adryan's anger, Natalie can only budge. The woman had just talked about her intention to leave the homeland and settle there.

Having a career in France is Natalie's biggest dream, and she does not want to waste the opportunity that comes.

Natalie did have time to undo her departure after the pain suffered by the father. However, his condition that has recovered makes Natalie's desire back up. Moreover, he had already obtained the blessing of both his parents.

"When are you leaving?" Adryan finally opened his voice.

"Last of the week." Natalie answered in a small voice.

Breathing out of Adryan's mouth. "Can't you just make a career here? You already have a name here. I don't mean to hinder your career, but to go there .. is too much for you."

"I ...." Natalie couldn't go on with her words.

"Give me a moment." That's all Adryan can tell Natalie.

Natalie looked at her lover. He actually does not want to beat one of them, but what you want to say, the opportunity can not come twice.

...***...

Reagents are still amazed to see the behavior of the wife who was so attentive to him

From coming to his parents' house to pick up his wife, until they are now in the car, Zenaya is not stopping to pay attention to Reagen.

"Is something wrong with my face?" ask the clumsy Reagents. He was not uncomfortable to be looked at in such a way by Zenaya, but embarrassed.

Zenaya shook her head.

"Then, why? You're so weird today. Did Mama just tell you my disgrace?" ask the curious Reagents.

"Do you have a disgrace?" Zenaya asked back.

"Yes .. a lot." Answer Reagents honestly.

Zenaya laughed a little. The woman held the husband's hand while looking at him. "Thank you for everything" Zenaya said later.

"What's everything?" Reagents who don't understand, ask.

"I'm sorry, I've never known you all this time."

Zenaya's next words made the Reagen turn his head. "You mean?"

Zenaya took out a photo from her bag. The photo she asked her mother-in-law to keep.

Wildly reagent. "You know that?"

Zenaya nodded. "So Mama took me to look through your childhood photos and Brother Noah, and I found this."

The atmosphere in the car was silent for a moment, before Zenaya finally opened her voice again. "I know you must know this picture. What's more, Natalie never talked to me about anything."

"He can't be invited to keep a secret, '" muttered the exasperated Reagen.

"When did you know?" ask Zenaya.

"After our first quarrel. You must have noticed my change of attitude," replied Reagen honestly.

"Why didn't you say it?" Zenaya stared at the sad Reagen.

"Nothing has changed in my opinion. Anyway, I don't want you to think, I'm taking a chance to be forgiven."

A drop of clear liquid flowed down Zenaya's cheeks.

"Darling, why are you crying?" Reagents stopped his car on the side of the road and wiped off Zenaya's tears.

"I must be so mean to you?"

Reagents shaken loudly. "I am the bad one. I'm sorry for being a coward. If I had balked at the bet, we wouldn't be like this, and you wouldn't have to keep the pain for that long."

Zenaya kissed the Reagents' hands gently. "Please promise me we'll be happy" he said later.

Reagents nodded with confidence. He held onto Zenaya's body tightly.

"I promise you, we'll be happy." A promise from the man's words.
