“Why are you laughing? You shouldn’t be laughing, you’re such a jerk, always having your way, you’re so unbearable.” Angrier and angrier, Suri Drew blindly reached out to attack Yigol Novak.
Suddenly, her hand accidentally touched Yigol Novak’s face and it brought her back to her senses in an instant.
“My dear, I’m sorry.” Hastily inspecting his face and seeing that she hadn’t scratched him, she immediately apologised.
Yigol asked, “Why are you apologising?
Like a child who knows they’ve done wrong, Suri stumbled over her words, “I… I have a bad temper, I shouldn’t have acted so irrationally, and I almost hurt your face even though it was just a game. I shouldn’t have taken things so seriously.”
Yigol found Suri’s irrational side quite endearing, but her sudden reversal had him at a loss.
Yigol held her hand, attempting to comfort her, “No need for apologies. Your husband is thick-skinned, and wouldn’t get hurt that easily. Even if I did, it wouldn’t matter. As they say, beating is a sign of affection, scolding is a sign of love. It only proves your love for me.”
Just as he finished his sentence, the sound of an argument came from afar and instinctively, they both turned to observe.
They noticed two grown-ups arguing with a child by their side. The little girl, around four or five years old, was crying silently, evidently frightened by the dispute.
The adults didn’t appear old and by their clothing and demeanor, it was clear they were a poor couple.
The sight of the arguing adults didn’t evoke much feeling from Suri, but seeing the little girl, stirred up a wave of sadness within her.
“Honey, are you okay?”, Yigol perceived Suri’s emotional shift.
Just like the unfortunate young girl, Suri too had a difficult childhood. The
sight of the girl’s plight reminded her of her own past, evoking her empathy.
“My dear, do you ever think we could end up living like this one day?” Suri murmured softly.
Yigol let out an exasperated sigh. This woman’s emotions were as fickle as the weather, changing in an instant.
It upset her to ponder over a situation that was nowhere near a reality.
However, it wasn’t a surprise for Yigol. Women tended to be more sensitive after all.
Yigol held Suri’s hand tightly but said nothing.
At this time, his silent companionship was enough. No matter what he said, Suri would likely not believe it.
The future was uncertain, and Suri, who always lacked a sense of security, would not easily believe in a picturesque future just because of what Yigol said.
Suri glanced at her hand, tightly clasped in Yigol’s, took a couple of deep breaths and her emotions gradually settled down.
Only then did Yigol speak, “In this world, there are millions of people, and each person has a unique destiny. Not all of us are fortunate enough to lead the life we desire and find the person of our dreams. We can’t control the lives of others, we can only manage our own.”
“Common arguments are a normal part of daily life, just like the old saying goes, even teeth fight among themselves, let alone people.”
“Don’t pity that little girl. Maybe she is unfortunate, but there are people in this world who are even less fortunate. Isn’t there a saying that some people are just trying to survive, and that alone takes all their effort?”
“Some events are beyond our control, but some futures can be changed. Have you changed your future?”
“As for us, I think, there won’t be a day like that.” Yigol said, flashing her a gentle smile.
After hearing him, Suri took another deep breath, and her mood improved slightly.
Yes, there are millions of people in the world, and a million different destinies.
A few simple words from Yigol made her feel much better, and she was once again ready to spar with him, “What if one day you go broke? What if we both end up penniless? Or, what if one day, you stop loving me, or I stop loving you?”
“Yes, you’re doing great now, but there’s a saying, ‘you can never know what’s in someone else’s heart’. Look at all the couples out there, the men treat the women so well during the courtship phase. Some men change after they’ve dated for a while, some change after marriage, and some change after having children.”
“You men always claim we women are gold-diggers and materialistic, haven’t you heard this saying? Women who pursue money usually lead good lives, while those who pursue love end up miserably.”
“It’s so unfair for women. Men, even if they grow old, can still attract young women as long as they have money. But women, once they reach a certain age, their beauty fades. If you choose the wrong man, it becomes a lifetime tragedy.”
Yigol was left speechless, he couldn’t fathom where Suri’s concerns were coming from. There was no logic, and yet she spoke with such conviction.
“That’s because those men aren’t as lucky as I am. They didn’t meet a beautiful woman like you. With such a beautiful wife, I wouldn’t have any unnecessary thoughts.”
Suri rolled her eyes at him, “No matter how beautiful, everyone eventually turns into an old hag.”
“That only means the man doesn’t love her enough. I’m different. I will love you forever, so if anyone is aging first, it would be me.”
“But, I’m not a fairy. I don’t have the power to remain forever young,” Suri added.
Yigol was helpless; his wife seemed determined to contradict whatever he said.
He had no answer for the issue of aging, he couldn’t possibly make her stay eighteen forever.
But of course, if one day Suri claimed she had found the secret to eternal youth, there were chances he would believe.
“Baby, you’re thinking way too far ahead. If you keep this up, you truly will age. You’re still a young girl, not even a woman yet. Don’t worry about these trivial things. Why don’t we go watch a movie?”
“An actual cinema. Nothing says a date like a movie.”
Yigol didn’t want to continue their discussion about age any longer, lest she lose her temper.
Suri flatly refused him, “I don’t want to, the movies are not interesting.
Binge-watching dramas on my phone is far more enjoyable.”
Yigol gently asked, “Baby, do you know why couples in love like going on movie dates?”
“It’s quite possible that they don’t even enjoy it, but they still go.”
Suri shook her head, “I’m quite curious too. The cinema isn’t interesting at all.. But I’ve never tried dating there, shall we give it a go?”
