He sacrificed living a wealthy and luxury life for the sake of our love. Thinking of all that I calmed down. 
"Then who are your real parents dear husband? I asked.
"What have you just called me, husband?"
"Yes, you are my husband, are you not?"
"You are making me blush a little. You are right dear we are now husband and wife." He smiled.
"But we are already fighting." I spoke loud and his fake parents entered the room from where we were.
"What's wrong dear. Is there any problem?"They asked.
"Yes we have a lot of problems here. Hashtag it's complicated."I answered.
"What problems daughter-in-law?"
"No more room for acting. I already know the truth. I know how you acted so perfectly as this guy's parents. You guys did a great job in fooling me and my family. How could you?"I cried.
"Please forgive us if you can. We had to do so for the sake of our son." They said.
"Son! You are acting again? You are asking for forgiveness and here you are still insisting on calling Abie your son."I said.
"No dear, this time we are not talking about Abie. We are talking about our only real son who is so sick in the hospital. When Abie asked us to help him in exchange for money, we couldn't refuse his golden offer since the doctors had asked us huge amount of money before attending to the patient. They asked us to make payment before they start working on our son and since we had no source of that huge amount of money, we agreed to help Abie. Abie is not a bad person my dear please try to understand his intentions for doing all this before deciding on what to do next. And as for us, we are so grateful to Abie for everything he is doing for our son,Ramel." They said.

Indeed their reason for accepting Abie's offer was justifiable and touching. Their words touched my heart and made me emotional.
"So who are your real parents?"I asked.
"Have some patience my love. We are going to see them today itself." He said.
We left after we had had our breakfast.
The route we used to go there wasn't new to me. We were heading to Cape city where my former house was. That too, it's where my dad's grave was.
Thinking about all that I felt uncomfortable but I didn't want to let Abie know anything about my past. I wanted to forget what happened in the past and move on but it seemed like my past was haunting me.

"what happened wife."Abie asked.
"It's nothing. I am just thinking about my family."
"Come on, wife. You are thinking about your family despite your husband's presence."
"Oh now I see. You can be jealous."I smiled.
There was silence for some time, memories from the past with my mom and dad came to my mind. That time I couldn't stop myself from crying. Tears ran out of my eyes and Abie saw me cry.
"What is it now my beautiful wife. You are scaring me please."he said.
"I am fine don't worry."I said.
"You are here crying and you are telling me not to worry. Why are you crying so much. Tell me please love. You know I can't stand watching you in any sort of pain. I am your husband now,at least you can share everything with me." 
"Do you want to know what's bothering me this much?"I asked
"Of course I want to know."
"Alright then I'll tell you. I was wondering, instead of going for our honeymoon, you are taking me home. Every girl dreams and wishes to spend special moments with her husband after their marriage, that's"honeymoon".
A couple spends that time together and get to know each other better. It's when they enjoy themselves to the fullest as they are all alone in a new environment only to spend time together."I explained.
"Oh no. I s this why you have been crying all along. Why didn't you tell me about it earlier. Let's first go home for some rituals and after that I will take you to any place of your choice for a romantic honeymoon." He assured.
His words were so good to hear but I wasn't in the mood for the honeymoon and even it's not what was bothering me. Honeymoon was just an excuse to explain my tears before Abie.
