Your Family's Son-in-Law

Merry didn't say goodbye to Clifford. The young woman hadn't even said anything to him since he arrived at the hospital. Clifford tried to understand that Merry might have been overwhelmed  from her separation with Chris.

But Clifford didn't realize that his flat expression had changed into that of dissatisfaction. After all, being left without saying goodbye was still painful, even for him. 

Clifford stood there in the waiting room for a very long time, like a wooden statue. He remained there until he heard that Merry's plane had taken off. Only then did Clifford move from his place. He stepped out of the airport and saw an airplane flying high in the sky.

The plane flew away, taking half of his heart with him.

Outside the airport, Lilia and Mellisa got into the Porsche driven by Leonard.
