Chapter 23: Unexpected call with unexpected decision

Life can also surprise us every moment. We will never be allowed to expect what will happen in the next minute.

While "Martin" is drinking his tea, his phone rang.

When he saw his father's name on the screen, his heart began beating faster and faster.

"Henry" is "Martin's father. He is exceeding 60 years of age. He is "Martin's" hero. "Martin" always cares about him not only because he loves him but also because he is a diabetic patient, so "Martin" does his best to make his father happy. "Martin" also does everything that his father asked him to do.

"Martin" answered his father's call and when he said hello ...

"Henry": Hello "Martin". How are you son?

"Martin": Hello dad. Fine . How are you and my mum?

"Henry": Fine son. All fine.

"Martin": Thanks God.

"Henry": I have a great news for you.

"Martin": Really. What is it?

"Henry": We met your finance's family yesterday and everything was ok. We chose the time for your engagement. I will send you her photos.

"Martin": Really. It's too fast.

"Henry": We will do our best for you son.

"Martin": Thanks dad.

"Henry": Your engagement will be in the next month and your marriage will be after 6 months of your engagement. Congratulations my son!

"Martin": Thanks dad. I have to end the call now because I have too much work, so take care of yourself and your health and kiss my mum for me.

"Henry": Ok son. God bless you. Good bye.

"Martin": Thanks dad. Good bye.

"Martin" ended the call because he can't bear the shock.

How is everything happen quickly?

How will his life change in one month?

Why are his parents in a hurry?

He can't absorb the recent events, but he has to surrender to reality.

It's his destiny, his habits, his culture and his village's rules. He can't break the rules.

While he drowns in his thinking, his phone rang again, but this time he really can't know how can he answer this call? When he saw her name and her photo on the screen, his heart also began beating faster and faster. He knows that she can know everything from his voice, but this time he decided that he will never hurt her. He has only one month, so he has to make her happy. No more fights and no sad things. Only happiness.

So he answered the call

"Serena": Hi "Martin". How are you?

"Martin": Fine dear. And you?

"Serena": Fine.

"Martin": Why are you calling me at this time?

"Serena": Because I finished my coffee and prepared myself for work and I called you to ask you if you are ready, we can go together.

"Martin": Ok dear. I will come to you.

"Serena": Ok I am waiting for you.

"Martin": Ok . Good bye.

"Serena": Good bye.

And they ended the call

"Goodbye, how hard is this word especially when you have to say it to the person who you really love and can't imagine your life without him. It's too difficult, but it's life." He said to himself inside his mind.

He finished his tea and went out to go to meet "Serena" and take her to her work on his way .
