I just listen to the Buddhist stories to learn the lessons of life, which makes me feel better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReally?\u201d Troy eagerly asks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYep.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen hurry up and come back!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026\u201d Karin rubs her forehead. \u201cNo, I have more stories to listen to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat? I can tell you stories if you want. I promise my stories are the best ones that you\u2019ve never heard before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSave it! Your stories are nothing to the Buddhist stories, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you? How could you look down upon your fianc\u00e9? The Buddha won\u2019t forgive you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe will as I\u2019m telling the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Troy is angry. \u201cDon\u2019t you talk to the fucking monks ever! You\u2019ve been brain-washed by them to argue with me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to be brain-washed. Hope you\u2019d take a chance to be brain-washed by them, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then Karin breaks off the call.<\/p>\n<p>Troy feels exasperated. Karin has hung up on him for the third time. He instantly makes up his mind not to call her anymore. He wants her to miss her and calls him.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s obvious that he has spoiled her. How can she ignore his husband\u2019s dignity?<\/p>\n<p>Then he lies in the bed with a darkened face.<\/p>\n<p>On the third day, Karin goes to find the monk again, and he smiles at her. \u201cI\u2019ll tell you one last story today. I hope the Buddha could help you ease your pain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThanks\u2026\u201d Karin joins her palms in pranam.<\/p>\n<p>Then the monk relates, \u201cWhen a man waited in her car for the traffic lights to turn green, a little boy in rags asked him if he wanted to buy some flowers. The moment he gave the boy the money, the lights turned green, and people behind his cars sounded their horns to urge him to go. Then he rudely yelled at the boy, \u201cJust give the fucking flowers to me now.\u201d But the boy thanked him politely all the same.<\/p>\n<p>Then the man felt guilty of his bad attitude towards the boy. So he immediately pulled aside and apologized to the boy for his rudeness and bought another bunch of flowers for the boy. The boy accepted it with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>However, he found his car broke down when he came back to his car. Suddenly, a breakdown van came to his rescue when he got anxious. The driver of the van gave him a note, which read, \u2018This is the bunch of flowers you\u2019ve bought for me.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is the last story for Karin, and she thinks, in the three days, the monk\u2019s stories are the best ones to purify her mind and soul that she\u2019s ever heard.<\/p>\n<p>The monk looks right into her eyes and says, \u201cA brave man is the one can face up the wrong that they\u2019ve done and apologize for it at once. Your kindness can be in exchange of your repay which set you free from your guilty past.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She rises up to her feet and bows to the monk. \u201cThank you, sir. I know what to do now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re welcome. The credits should be given to the Buddha.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After visiting other temples and places of interests in India, Karin plans to go back to Zurich earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Troy hasn\u2019t called her since their last call, and she doesn\u2019t bother to call him, either. She has told him she needs some personal time and space to sort out the problems on her mind.<\/p>\n<p>She doesn\u2019t call Troy until she gets to the airport.<\/p>\n<p>Troy is walking out of his office after the meeting when his phone rings off. He\u2019s over the moon when he finds it\u2019s Karin\u2019s call. He has spent days in waiting her calls but she hasn\u2019t called him, not to mention any messages. He\u2019d have flown to find her but for his tons of work.<\/p>\n<p>He rejects her call and sits in his chair happily as he has successfully defended his male dignity. Robert catches his huge smile when he opens his door, and he asks in a teasing tone, \u201cAre you an idiot? You can\u2019t keep your mouth close.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Troy glares at him. \u201cI\u2019m your boss and I can do whatever I like.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Robert leaves his office, Troy immediately rushes out with his car keys.<\/p>\n<p>The time he gets to the airport, he finds her in a red coat in the crowd. He quickly pulls his car up in front of her, containing his desire to hold her tight in his arms.<\/p>\n<p>Before getting her suitcases stowed and slips into the car, Karin smiles wryly as she stares at the man in sun glasses sitting in the car who pretends to not care about her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot picking up the phone?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not here to pick you up, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s dumbfounded. \u201cAm I supposed to get off? Fine. Drop me here, please.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As soon as she reaches out for the doorknob, Troy drags her back to her seat and buckles her up, whispering through his gritted teeth, \u201cYou have no idea what it means to hang up on me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He goes back to work after driving her to the Ziteng Garden. Before leaving, he reminded her, \u201cGet prepared for my rage, babe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Karin sighs and hug him, saying gently, \u201cCome back early tonight. I want to talk to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo more \u2018I love you\u2019 can save you from the punishment you deserve. Do you know the opposite of \u2018I love you\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She instantly answers, \u201cI don\u2019t love you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shaking his head, Troy retorts ruthlessly, \u201cI torture you\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The he leaves the house. Karin murmurs to herself, \u201cTroie, the opposite of \u2018I love you\u2019 is \u2018Can we get back together\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He waits for Troy till 6 o\u2019clock, but he doesn\u2019t come home. However, here comes Robert\u2019s call.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2733","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
