“What is on purpose?”
“Makes me jealous of Ryan..”.
“Are you jealous?” I put on my smile.
“More than you imagined.” He looked at me and made me unable to return his gaze.
“Really...” And I played his fingers. I realized he was still wearing the ring on his right hand. “This is your wedding ring?”
“Iya,.” He stared at the white ring and a moment later with his other hand took it off. But then he couldn't speak. “It's been three years.I haven't been able to take this off. But I guess now I should let them go, let them rest in peace I can only stroke his shoulder. I felt my eyes heat up and sadness in his voice.
“May they rest in peace..” I say my prayers for the departed soul.
“Rest in peace.” He felt the engraving on the ring and said his own prayers. And then kept it in his pocket and momentarily choked without saying anything.
“What is your wife like..” Oppa laughed a little at my question. He seemed to remember for a moment.
“Half of you, chatty, detail, like the sun, love fishing, cunning..” He looked at me who was watching his words with surprise. “I don't equate you guys, I know you guys are different people, but sometimes seeing your attitude, makes me think of him He added his words quickly.
“Ohhh,.” So it turned out.
“Do not misunderstand or get angry, again, you are still you. I never saw you as Hyeri's replacement.”.
“You sure want to get involved with me like this. What you see from me. Be honest your reason, Leo and Ryan your fans are so much prettier, younger than me.” Now he asked again and wanted a reason... This conversation is really something. Dating a younger person certainly never talks about something like this.
“I fell in love with how much you appreciate your family. Not like the father I never got. Not to think of you as a substitute for Dad, I'm just sure you're a great Dad, and won't leave the family, we won't fight much, because you can understand better than the rest of my life, not try to be selfish, have better experiences, can compensate me who sometimes still explode. That's the reason I might. I've told you I've had a lot of dating experience my age. And everything does not end well.”.
“I'm human, have a weakness don't expect me too perfect..”.
“No, I am not expecting someone who is perfect, not expecting someone who will be sweet, romantic all the time, I know that such a thing only exists in the imagination. Only people will stay there with me and my son, no matter what. My hope is simple actually. But if someone who was with me was as explosive as me eating just the same it wouldn't last long. Is that too much?”
“Hmm..I know, we are used to each other like family.”
“I just want to say that everyone needs to try to do their best in their personal relationships, be realistic. Not always love is pounding, it is best that you are comfortable and consider your partner part of your daily life, go home, see your family is fine. It's been a bliss, romantic sometimes forgotten.”.
"Yes, I know Oppa, it's just a moment. All that's left is a sense of being used to each other."
He didn't say anything just embrace my shoulder then. We sat quietly together until the red tinge disappeared. I know he needs time to pray for his family, to speak with memories in his heart. Then you can step up straight and hold my hand tighter.
“Alright, let's eat. You must be hungry.” He stopped his reflection.
“Ayo.” And I now welcome his hand and am ready to accompany his steps.
