The Law of Attraction
chapter-387

At Yu Building

"Seriously? She won't come home for days? Is that why she drained me yesterday? To starve me for days?" Frowning, Noah murmured to himself after reading Luo's text message to him, informing him that she was now with her parents and would stay there for days until she asked him to pick her up.

"Did I do something wrong?" Noah murmured next because he felt that it was very sudden that Luo decided something like that without even consulting him first. Because Luo usually consulted him even with minor things.

He heaved a long sigh, wondering what to type in his mobile phone as his reply to his wife. He was in that dilemma when Craig entered.

"My generous brother… I'm all set to leave tomorrow…" he announced with a bright smile on his face as he sat on Noah's couch.

Noah did not reply so he stared at him and noticed how wrinkled his forehead was while he was staring at his mobile phone, that never happened in the matter of business so he commented, "Love problems? Tell me."

Still, no response, so Craig shook his head and stood up to sit on the chair in front of his table.

He snapped his fingers in front of his face and complained, "Did you even notice I'm here?"

"Ohhh…" Noah muttered, seeing Craig in front of him.

Craig chuckled and said, "Ahhh… Noah Yu is, impossibly, out of himself. Look at how you are spacing out?!"

Noah helplessly slumped his back on his chair and released a deep sigh.

"Bro tell me what it is, now. Who knows, maybe I can help you big time with my wise advice as always…" Craig persuaded him, so Noah told him about the conversation he had with Luo last night because he believed that it had something to do with her suddenly leaving.

"Oh… No wonder she left. She must have felt so disappointed and she did not want you to see her like that. Well, I'm sure she's pissed off too..." Craig added with a tease.

"Why would she be? I mean I just said that it's too early and I'm not ready?" Noah snorted.

"Well, you broke her heart obviously. Why don't you, hmm... Let her be away for a while and sort out yourself as well.

I mean having a baby is a blessing for sure for every married couple and you can't ignore your wife's feelings on that matter. You have to consider what she wants too. I understand why you have doubts about it Noah…"

"Though I'm not sure if I'm right about it since you are the only one who can read your mind. Hmm, how about telling it to me, and let's see if I can help with how you can overcome your doubts about having a baby…" Craig added, hoping Noah would once again open up to him.

Noah emitted another long deep sigh before he looked at Craig and whispered, "I'm scared Craig… I'm scared to be a father and end up like my own father. Disappointing my future children like how I am disappointed with him."

"But you are not your father Noah. Don't be pessimistic. Nothing's happened yet and here you are assuming that you will do bad already. Learn from your father and do the opposite instead, my friend.

Be the best you can for your future children and especially for your wife. How about trying to set your mind to be the best instead of letting, fear and doubts rule over you, my friend." Craig encouraged.

"Seems so easy…" Noah skeptically commented.

Craig laughed and stood up. He said what he had to say in his dilemma and everything was up to Noah already. He understood him well but he should overcome this by now since he already entered another stage of his life as a family man.

"I think I already gave the best advice. I will go now and make a baby as well. Hearing your dilemma suddenly makes me excited about working harder as well. Man… You're so lucky to have a wife like Luo, I hope you will try your best in your relationship like she is doing…" Craig added with a wink before leaving.

Noah scoffed as he watched Craig leave and before he opened the door he suddenly said, "I will miss you so come back soon."

Craig turned around and beamed, "What the heck?! What is it again?"

"I said… Go, leave and never show your face to me again. I'm tired of you…" Noah uttered with a serious face.

Craig nodded with a chuckle and said, "That's more like you. See you soon bro…"

Noah nodded. As soon as Craig left, Noah made another sigh.

Craig was right. He should be optimistic. Instead of getting scared and being doubtful, he should just do his best for Luo as his husband and as a father for his future children.

"I am not my father…" he whispered.

He then grabbed his mobile phone back and typed a reply to Luo.

Luo was preparing the table for lunch with her mother when she heard her mobile phone beeped.

"I will go fetch your father." Her mother said and Luo nodded as she sat on her seat in the dining room. She picked up her mobile phone and quickly opened the message seeing it was from Noah.

[Alright baby. Take your time and enjoy spending time with mom and dad. Just tell me if you miss me already then I can either sleep with you there or pick you up to come back home.]

Luo suddenly had mixed feelings. She was indeed still annoyed with her husband but his text message softened her that she suddenly felt the urge to be with him.

"Geez… I'm so weak. I should make him suffer for some days at least, for making my heartache. That insensitive brute!"

She had that crumpled face when her father and mother joined her at the table.

His father looked at her mother with a questioning look seeing that Luo had a crumpled face while staring at her mobile phone.

"Lovers quarrel…" Luo's mother whispered.

Luo heard it so she interrupted as she typed her reply to her brute husband, "Mom… We did not have an argument. There is no 'lover's quarrel'"

"Anyways, stop texting and let's all eat first," her father said, so Luo put her mobile phone in her pocket after sending her reply.

Meanwhile, Noah's forehead furrowed reading Luo's reply.

[I'm planning to stay here for a week or more since I miss my parents too much…]
