Raine happily shared the good news with everyone. “Aella already agreed. She’ll definitely come back for my wedding.”
Tyrone paused while holding the guest list. His hand stopped for a moment.
He gave a soft grunt, then stood up. “I’m going out to take a call.”
As Tyrone left the living room, everyone expression changed.
Aella had been gone for three years. During that time, Tyrone put almost all his focus into work. He never talked about marriage anymore. He also grew colder and quieter.
The more the elders pushed him, the more firmly he refused.
After a while, no one dared to mention his marriage in front of him.
Tyrone lit a cigarette and stood by the outdoor pool in the garden.
Three years.
Every time he heard Aella’s name, it felt like a small stone dropped into a calm lake. Gentle ripples spread out, one after another.
Three long years, day and night.
Aella had given birth overseas. She had gotten married overseas.
Every time, he canceled his schedule to go there
And every time, he never dared to get too close.
At first, he forced himself to endure it. Later, he became numb.
He
spent three
years proving one thing: time does not heal everything.
Tyrone kept pushing his feelings away, blocking them again and again. In the end, nothing really disappeared.
It was all still there, buried deep in his heart, covered by a calm mask.
His feelings for Aella were like a ticking time bomb. One wrong move, and it could explode.
He was afraid of losing control. Afraid of losing is reason. Afraid of showing his feelings in the ugliest way.

The only thing he could do was stay away.

The day before Raine and Brad’s wedding.
Aella and Daniel returned home early with their three–year–old daughter.
After adjusting to the time difference, they had lunch with the Hills. Then Daniel took Aella and the child to the Reid Residence.
Daniel knew Aella had lived overseas for three years and hadn’t spent much time with her parents. He had already packed their things and planned for the family of three to stay with her family for a while.
He wanted Aella and their daughter to spend proper time with family.
When Aella’s parents saw how happy the three of them were, they finally felt at ease.
Their daughter, Poppy Hill, was a little shy. She stayed close to Aella, greeting people softly, but she wouldn’t let Aella’s parents hold her.
Clyde tried to coax her. “Come on, say Uncle Clyde.” Poppy called him once, then quickly hid behind her parents again.
Aella felt helpless that her daughter wasn’t close to the family.
Daniel explained gently, “Poppy just got back and isn’t used to things yet. She’ll be fine in a few days.”
