A gentle spring afternoon. The small garden outside Minh and An’s house was filled with laughter—the clear, bright sound of a child running across the grass. “Daddy, catch me if you can!” their little daughter giggled, waving a toy rabbit in the air. Minh pretended to chase after her, his usually calm face breaking into rare but genuine laughter. An watched from the porch, her heart glowing at the sight. Behind her, Minh’s mother sat in a wheelchair, her hair now silver but her eyes full of peace. She whispered, “He smiles so much more now… thanks to you, An.” An knelt gently beside her. “No, it’s because he finally found his happiness. We just had to walk through the storm first.” --- As the sun began to set, painting the sky in warm orange, Minh returned to An’s side, their daughter clinging to his hand. “Remember when we used to walk home under the rain?” An asked softly. Minh nodded, his eyes drifting to the horizon. “Back then, I thought my world was falling apart. But now… I see it was just leading me to this moment.” He reached for An’s hand, squeezing it tightly. “This family, this life with you—it’s everything I ever dreamed of.” An leaned her head against his shoulder. Their daughter tugged at them, laughing. “Come on, let’s play together!” The three of them laughed, the garden echoing with warmth. And under the fading sunlight, surrounded by blossoms and love, Minh finally felt what he had once thought impossible— A life without loneliness. A future filled with love. The End. Forever.
