Chapter 407 - 407: The real wedding day part 4 (2/2)
”I was away most of the time, fighting against the devil a hundred year back, and as such, I had to leave my wife, my child, and even Claude's family which I came to consider as part of my own family. I still regretted the fact that I wasn't there when they needed me the most, up until now. How I wish I could ask Az, the keeper of time to turn back the clock just for me...” [Filvisar]
”...” [Mahsuri]
Mahsuri, who wouldn't budge from her favourite spot (just across us all), also start listening to it. She might not show any interest, but I know for a fact that she's feeling sad hearing about what happened as well
”But if there's something that keeps me going all this time, was the fact that I still remember my wedding day, as well as the family that I came to build afterward” [Filvisar]
”!” [Rean]
”Please, go on... Zerolith, just come down if you wanted to hear it as well” [Ash]
”It uncomfortable to seat there in the stair, isn't it” [Claude]
”Sorry, I didn't mean to pry. I was just trying to get some water when the mood turn heavy” [Zerolith]
Zerolith sit beside Rean and start drinking a cup of tea as well. I just notice, Rean is both anxious and somewhat, oddly calm? It's like, he's getting the answer he wanted to
”Rean, and both Ash as well as Zerolith, you as well Rafiah. Listen close, you guys will be sacrificing a lot of thing in your life, even after this whole ordeal is over, that's why, I'll tell you one and only one thing. Don't ever sacrifice your happiness and the happiness of others around you, just because you think you didn't deserve it. It's true that Muse will face an even greater challenge, and in a sense, yes, it's cruel that you leave her alone, but isn't it crueler you left her hanging? What makes you think, that if you decided not to married her, all those problems will go away? Can you” [Filvisar]
”That's a tough question...” [Rean]
”I see... At the end of the day, whether Rean decided to be with Muse or not, life will still goes on. Different set of problems will come no matter what” [Zerolith]
”Exactly. That's why, I want you to cast aside all those worries, and start looking forward to it. Plus, you only think Muse will suffer, can't you think the happiness that Muse will get by marrying you” [Filvisar]
”That's indeed the case. Even when Master was away, I still fondly remember the mistress and her son happily talking about Master, like he was there” [Claude]
”Hear that Rean?” [Rafiah]
”I did... Thank you... All of you” [Rean]
”I don't think I contribute much on this discussion, but I can assure you one thing. If anything comes in your way, tell us, we will more than happy to help” [Ash]
”I will” [Rean]
”Now that this is all over, why don't you go to sleep, you will have a big day tomorrow” [Claude]
”You as well Zerolith, you will have an important role as well tomorrow” [Rafiah]
”Can I just sit here a bit longer... Chatting a bit more” [Rean]
”If that's the case, I will accompany you” [Zerolith]
”Count me in” [Ash]
And we have a little bit of chat
(It's peaceful... Vincent, Maria...How I wish you are here with us...) [Mahsuri]
