Amy and Chris looked at each other, and they felt that Ken's problem was probably himself.There is no one who is still pestering the other party after a divorce all day long. If it is someone who is not polite, I am afraid that the police will have been called.

"My wife and her current husband are going to move out soon, and I don't know where they will go. But no matter where they go, I have no way to follow them. Because they have registered for me at the police station, I can Getting too close to them. If I can't get custody of my kids at this point, I'll never have a chance."

Ken spent more than ten years, but he only did this one thing.That is to fight for the custody of the child. He regrets his choice every year. If he didn't go to the bar to be a guitar player, or go to that law firm as an assistant.So will everything be different?
"Ken, I think you made a mistake. Yes, we can understand your desire for child custody and agree with you. However, it has been ten years. You Your daughter is an adult, and she no longer needs a guardian. Your son has been living away from you for more than ten years. He already has a life of his own. He doesn’t need you either.”

Chris knew it was cruel to say this, but she felt that she had to remind this persistent man.The world is constantly changing, and time is constantly flowing.

Children become teenagers, teenagers become youth, youth become middle-aged, middle-aged become old.Time and again, time has never been accidental, for everyone, time is fair.

But Ken has been unable to get away in this ten years. He actually doesn't understand what can be changed in ten years.Ten years can turn a baby who only knows how to nurse into a small adult who can sleep in a room independently, ten years can turn a sapling into a tall tree, and ten years can turn a short-lived animal from birth to death.

"What do you mean by that? I really can't have my daughter. She has gone to other places to go to college, but I have an underage son. He should belong to me. He left me when he was a few years old. , I didn't try my best to raise him up. This is what I have to make up for."

Ken seems completely unacceptable to giving it all up.

After Amy and Chris looked at each other, both of them felt that they might not be able to convince him for a while.

"But what about Mary? Is she not important? She has spent more than 20 years of her youth in prison, and she just needs a little companionship."

  Ken was very distressed, he didn't even know what to say, the coffee cup in his hand was constantly stirred by him, and even splashed out and landed on his cuff, he didn't care, in fact, he was sad in his heart.It's just that now he's in trouble.

"Sorry, I might really not be able to go. I'll go to see Mary when I'm done with things here. For sure."

"What you haven't done in ten years, can you do it in these few days? Ken, people need to be more realistic. There is no time limit for your custody fight. When you go to find Mary, it may be ten Years? Or 20 years?"

Amy felt very disappointed, but also disappointed and sad for Mary, so many brothers and sisters, but no one could help her.Be with her during her hardest time, and give her affection when she needs help the most.

Even in front of the younger brother who was raised as a son when he was a child, it is nothing more than that.Humans are indeed born alone.No one will desperately exist for you.

Amy put the meal money on the table, she got up and left the restaurant, Chris watched her go out helplessly.

  Ken was miserable and blamed himself.

"I, I really don't care about Mary."

"I also have a son, maybe I can understand your feelings. Don't blame Amy, she doesn't understand the heart of people with children. She just cares too much about Mary. We went to three places together and met Jeff respectively, Jinna and you. But none of you can agree to accompany Mary. It is conceivable how uncomfortable she is."

Ken looked up at the names of his other siblings, finally showing something else on his face.

"You went to see them? Why can't they go?"

"Everyone has their own ideas. Your brother Jeff feels that Mary is an adult. He has no responsibility for her. So he just chooses to send a congratulatory phone call, or have a dinner together."

Ken knew this brother very well, so he was not surprised to hear such news.

20 years ago, when he and his wife were in the local area, they encountered difficulties. At that time, the house could not afford to live in it, and Jeff made a lot of money as a real estate agent.At that time, he was also desperate, and there were two children waiting to be fed at home, and he never found a job.I can't even afford the house loan.

So he secretly went to find Jeff once without telling his wife, hoping that he could help him for the sake of the two, at least so that he could change to a house that cost half as much.

But Jeff was a high-spirited real estate developer at that time. He just persuaded the youngest brother to make a big deal, and finally just bought him a cup of coffee and left.

Since then, Ken feels guilty every time he sees Jeff.Even if he didn't help him with anything, he found it difficult to face the big brother.In fact, it was because Jeff didn't help him at all, and he felt that he was looked down upon by his elder brother.

"Where's Jinna? Why doesn't she go to see Mary. I remember she has a little girl named Mary. Jinna likes sister Mary very much. Is she sick?"

Ken is very concerned. He and Jinna have more contact, although they only contact once a year at Christmas to wish each other well.But this is already very good, they are all grown-ups, they have also married, and they live far away from each other, so there is no way to be as close as before.

"No, she has children to take care of at home, and she seems to be very busy, with two jobs. It may be a bit difficult financially. It is said that her husband does not make much money, and she is all on her own to support the family."

Chris looked at the time, maybe she really didn't have to work hard on Ken.It was obvious that Ken would not be able to leave here and return home.

But facing this poor man, she also sympathized.She thought of the desperation she felt in court, and the hysteria at hearing she had been deprived of custody.That feeling of losing a child sucks.Chris understands this, although she doesn't agree with his approach.It's really not good to be so tight on people.

"It turned out that she had a bad life, but she never said this every time on the phone. Every time I asked her how her life was, she said it was fine. The children are very well-behaved. The eldest daughter has grown up, and the younger daughter Looks like an angel. When I asked about her husband, she was always vague, just saying he was in good health."

Ken is angry that he feels like a younger brother who doesn't care about Jinna very much.Jin Na is the cutest and most well-behaved child among their siblings.Every time she takes care of everyone like an angel.Never lost my temper with them, and never annoyed them.From childhood to adulthood, she was the quietest child who cherished family affection the most.

But he ignored her so much.

"I think, if you have time in the future, you can go and see Jinna and see what her living environment is like."

Chris stood up and said goodbye to Ken.

"Do you also think that I can't do anything well, and everything is a failure?" Ken felt his eyes were a little sour, and he couldn't help crying, there was no wailing, no violent sobbing, only silent tears slid down the table superior.

  One drop, two drops.

That is the emotion of a man who has gathered half his life. Life is really too difficult, and sometimes it even feels like there is only endless pain and discomfort.

Chris sat down again, she didn't speak, she knew that life sometimes got out of control like this, without any reason.Sometimes it gets very overwhelming.
"Can you tell me how you plan to obtain custody?

Gaining his nerves, Ken told Chris that he had since resigned from his precarious job as a speakeasy guitarist.He found a position as a salesman in a department store who specialized in bedding.The performance is also up and down, but compared to the guitarist's job, it is considered to be more profitable.

It's just that these are far from enough. He saved some money and planned to buy a better house, so that the children might be willing to go there to play. So he bought a very nice villa and spent five years of his savings , but unexpectedly, the ex-wife also moved, from the city to the suburbs.Because his husband changed a house.

So Ken followed suit and rented a house, which was just across the street from his ex-wife's house.

The ex-wife was very angry when she found out and told him not to do such things again.Then his daughter's high school was in a relatively distant place. In order to gain her daughter's trust, he moved to the vicinity of her daughter's school.

The daughter found that she had to tell him not to follow her anymore, which would make her feel very annoyed.

He had no choice but to move back and rent a house near his son's training ground. He could see his son training with the team from the balcony every afternoon.This made him very satisfied.But the good times didn't last long, and the son also found out.

The son told his ex-wife, and the ex-wife went to the police station to make a report.The information about Ken’s rental house was clear at a glance, and the police warned him not to do this kind of stalker thing, which would only make people feel scared and disgusted.

Chris listened to his story almost like listening to the Arabian Nights.

This Ken is such a special person, I can't understand why he should become a stalker.

"Listen, Ken. You're a man in your 40s, you're not a kid anymore. There's nothing wrong with loving your family, but you have to learn to let go. Your daughter and son are individuals. They're not kids anymore. You can't ask for custody in this way."
