"Will Mommy allow me to do the IVF process? Based on how much Mommy hates and dislikes me, I'm sure you will be furious and insult me ​​even harder. Never mind doing IVF, I'm sure when you hear me say that, you will immediately ask. Brian to divorce me. "

Rena was silent unable to say a word, and Elise continued her words.

​​

"In your eyes whatever I do is always wrong. Even if I have done right, you will still blame me. So, how can I not give up and think of such crazy ideas." After saying that the knot that always tied Elise's heart slowly opened. The boulder that was always pressing on her finally disappeared. She has conveyed all of her heart. Even if she could, Elise wanted to scream in front of Rena at this time. But she had to endure it so that their serious conversation would run smoothly.

Rena was silent and thought back to her attitude towards Elise. Yes, she was too much and always said sharp words and sarcasm to Elise. Everything Elise does and says always hurt her eyes and make Rena always angry and say harsh words.

"Yes, I was wrong and shouldn't treat you like that. But Elise, have you ever clearly thought about your feelings for Brian? You believe it's love and not dependence. Because someone who loves sincerely won't be willing to see the man, she loves having a relationship with a woman. other, whatever the reason. Even if I was in your position, I would rather bow down and ask my mother-in-law's approval than encourage my husband to make love and have children with another woman."

Elise was speechless.

"You just made Brian where you leaned on and held him by your side. You were so afraid that if Brian left you, it would leave you with no place to hang on. That's not Elise's love."

"No, I love Brian." Elise still denies Rena's opinion about her feelings for Brian.

"True love is you are willing to sacrifice everything for his sake and will not be willing to see him with the others. But what you do is very different. You are very selfish. You encourage Brian to be with Elena. And you never thought the seeds of love would grow between them, right? "

"I'm sure you've noticed, that now Brian's heart has turned to another heart. Or maybe Brian never loved you in the first place."

"No Mom. Brian just wavered for a moment. Because Elena has the same face as me. And I'm sure, I can make Brian love me again."

"Until when you will continue to run from the reality of Elise. Brian has fallen in love with Elena. And how could he forget Elena if among them there is Dean as a sign of their love."

"No, Mom. I'm sure ...." Elise's words stopped when Rena's hand held hers tightly again.

"You have to accept the reality of Elise. Brian has fallen in love with Elena. And it all happened because of yourself. You pushed and asked Brian to do all that. So, you have to accept all the consequences yourself, that Brian doesn't love you anymore. "

"With all that happened, are you still going to force yourself to hang on and tie Brian to your side? Do you still want to make everything suffer for your own selfishness? Brian doesn't love you anymore, and Dean needs his biological mother's love. And you will get hurt, if you keep pushing yourself to defend your household. Nobody will be happy, Elise. You will be hurt and sad, every time you realize that Brian doesn't love you anymore. Or you want Brian to look at you as Elena not yourself. I think it hurts a lot more compared to separating from Brian. How could you possibly want to be Elena's shadow in Brian's eyes? So Elise, the only way is for you guys to get divorced. Not just for Brian and Dean, but for yourself as well. "

Elise fell silent. Previously she had kept on suggesting to herself that Brian was just a little complacent about Elena's presence. And Elise believes she can make Brian love her like before. But Rena's words seemed to provide a very painful slap for Elise. The fact is Brian doesn't love her anymore. And his heart is already filled with Elena. And what Rena said is true. How could Brian forget Elena, if there was Dean among them. Brian would remember Elena over and over every time he saw Dean. And the thing that really hurts and cuts Elise's heart is Rena's sentence that says that maybe Brian sees Elise as Elena. Making Elise as Brian's outlet for his longing for Elena.

Thinking about it made Elise wonder, could it be that when she kissed Brian earlier, that man was imagining Elena, not her. Elise's heart was tightly squeezed.

"Elise, I beg for the sake of your happiness, divorce Brian. As you know, Brian didn't want to divorce you first because he kept his promise to you. But things are different if you ask for a divorce first." Seeing Elise who was just silent, neither angry nor against her advice made Rena speak again.

"Elise, you have to give up Brian for your own happiness."

"For the sake of my happiness? Brian is the only happiness I have Mommy. If I let go, how can I be happy?"

"You can seek your new happiness. No, I can give you happiness."

"Mommy mean?"

"Elise, Brian will not leave you even though you are divorced. And I will also give you the care and love of a mother. Because I want to raise you to be my adopted daughter."

"Make me an adopted daughter?" Elise asked with a deep frown. She never imagined that she would hear that from Rena's mouth.

"Elise, with what has happened to you in the past, you depend on and can't let go of Brian. You seek love and attention. You also need support and encouragement from other people, so you can move on. And it's not all love. "
