Chapter 32 Sudden choice

Fen's heart stopped beating for a moment after hearing David--her husband, say the news. "What? Are you serious, sir? You shouldn't be joking around this afternoon."

Femi slowly looked up at her husband and couldn't believe what David had just said. He, who was originally enjoying his drink, didn't even have the slightest appetite to touch the glass in front of him now. Her fingers were busy playing with the hem of her shirt, receiving news from her husband.

They were currently at the restaurant doing nothing after finishing their food. All the children were still busy with their joking activities.

It turned out that this was David's goal, who deliberately took his small family out for a walk, then said what had been weighing on his heart for the past month. He had received the news two months ago, but his work contract, which was ending in a few days, was finally revealed even though the situation was forced.

David inhaled and exhaled slowly, looking heavy after saying the news that it was clear his family would be affected after this.

Anyone who knows bad news will definitely sink and become a burden on the mind. Likewise with Fen when she found out that her husband's contract had expired.

David is fully aware that his wife must be deplorable if she knows this news, but he just wants to be honest and hopes that Fen will accept all the unexpected things that will happen.

"I know this news might make it more difficult for us to make ends meet, but everything has been arranged, and I am not a civil servant nor is it the creator who can turn back time to prevent that period from happening. I hope this will not become burden on our minds, dear."

"And, you also don't need to worry because we still have my father's coconut field in the village. You yourself know that my father himself has fully surrendered the field to me. So, if you don't mind, we will move to my hometown."

David spoke in a deep, careful voice. There was a lot of worry on her face if Fen didn't want to follow her suggestion. In addition, there has been no response from his wife. There was no expression on his face yet.

"Are we moving?" After being silent for so long, Fen finally spoke up. Seeing the confused face of her husband who had been in front of her, Fen made her words clear.

"If we move now, I'm not ready. We don't have a place to live there yet, I won't agree to live in your father and brother's house. Then, their children also go to school here. Aren't we comfortable here? If we don't have job, you can find another job. You don't have to be an office worker, right? If you can go out to sea at dawn, and come back in the middle of the day, if you're lucky, you can catch fish and sell it and earn money with it."

David was silent, there was some truth to what his wife said. However, he does not yet have the tools and supporters to go to see. All types of fishing equipment, boats, or speedboat engines.

Ought... All I can do now is sigh deeply.

If only he had the capital, maybe they could do business. Now, he might be able to collect dry split betel nut or dried copra by buying it from other people according to the capital price in the market.

Ten million, that would probably be enough to start doing business as a beginner. If a merchant ship arrived with a lot of merchandise there, after unloading all of it, the copra and dried split betel nuts would be loaded onto the merchant ship, then the official agents would buy them at a high price.

But that's just a fantasy, David has not been able to carry out his intention to do business. I do not know where he will get the capital to start a business.

Home, David suddenly thought of something about the house he lived in. "That's right, we have to sell the house and move to our hometown to start a business and build a small cottage to open a business."

Fen listened to it. "But, if you do business there, maybe even your relatives will come here first with open notes to bill. We don't know when they will pay them, sometimes our relatives can use us for everything, you know that, right?" ?"

"T-that," David swallowed nervously. For some reason, he found that Fen still had a straight face, but every word he said was a little sharp. But there's some truth in that, so it makes his guts shrink a little. There is an energy that makes Fen able to overcome it a little.

Even though David knew, Fen was just an ordinary person who took care of the house and her children every day. "So what do you think? Are we going to stay here forever? What are we going to eat? It's impossible if the weather and sea conditions allow us to go to see every day. Later, if the storms and wave conditions don't allow it, we won't get money and even just eat it is will be very difficult."

Fen blinked her eyelids while looking at her husband's face. "If you'll listen to my request just this once, I actually really want to go back to living in my hometown. You see, I've lived on this island for many years honoring you as the head of the family. The place I want to live in is the city of Endless, there we can also open a business and various businesses easily. I have relatives who might help us, even if they don't help, we can also try an online business or become a freelancer who earns. As long as you know, it can be done, even if it's just At home."

"I don't agree!" David immediately broke his wife's words.

"Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen. Looks like you've been here too long. Have you finished eating your food? If you don't mind, this place should be vacated soon, as there are some of our customers waiting in line there."

Suddenly, an employee of the restaurant came and approached David's family.

Fen and David realized that they had been there too long. They were soon ready to leave there after David paid for all their meal costs.

"Father, are we going home? My teacher gave us plenty of assignments, and they have to finish today and then tomorrow they have to be collected immediately."

Chica told David, then his father nodded without saying a word.

The look on his face was still the same, his expression flat.

"Mas, we should just call a taxi, if you ride a motorbike, it won't fit if we are together."
