Madame Suthilak looked at Minnie's face while her heart was full by the guilty. She touched the scar on Minnie's back and stroking it softly.
" Minnie must be hurt so much right?"
She asked and tried to calm her voice from shaking. It was unable to believe that something was bad like this happened in little girl. It was very sad and pitiable.
It was lucky that Minnie was saved and can growth to be cutie girl.
Her granddaughter was safe.
It was because Arthit saved her life.
Madame Suthilak owed both Arthit and Minnie too much, far too much. She was afraid that even if she did everything, she would not be able to repay them.
One mistake led to the other. Because of her stubbornness and bigotry, she had almost lost the chance to see her granddaughter. In the end, had let two innocent person suffer all the consequences.
If she could, she would much rather that it was her suffering all of this, but now nothing she said could reverse this situation.
" Minnie is not hurt anymore but mommy is not strong. Uncle Beam told that because mommy gave one kidney to Minnie and mommy didn't rest well so Mommy always sick. Minnie pity mommy so much."
Minnie spoke in a soft and gently way every time she talked about her mommy. If Arthit was here with her and daddy it would be good. She want to be with them every time and everywhere.
" Grandma! Minnie can have this cake for mommy? Mommy like to eat it but because Minnie can't eat so mommy never eat too. Now mommy is sick so Minnie want to give it mommy."
The tear that was almost dry was flowing back again after she heard her granddaughter thoughtful word. She hugged Minnie so tightly again.
" Minnie can take everything Minnie want, Grandma allow!"
Everyone was in there also tried to wipe the tears from their face. They didn't know what happened between Minnie's mommy and Madame Suthilak but they believed in their heart that young girl's mom must be a very kindly person because she can raised little girl well.
Both Kongpob and Mr Suthilak went inside after they finished their talking. Mr Suthilak's feeling was not better too as he knew everything of Arthit and Minnie hard time from his son but after he saw his wife was sobbing while hugging granddaughter, he felt worst even more. His wife maybe already knew everything from Minnie too. He walked toward her and put his hand on her shoulder patting it lightly. Madame Suthilak looked up and saw her husband, his word flashed back to her mind.
( How much do you want to hurt our son? Did he not hurt enough? You will lose him if you're still continue to care about your face but don't care about our son's heart.)
He was right! Every word of him was right! Now she didn't dare even to look at Kongpob who standing behind his father.
Kongpob felt like his mother was trying to avoid looking at him. She maybe ashamed of what she had done even he still blamed her but however he felt happy that finally she can knew her fault.
He looked at the watch and seemed like he would leave soon because Arthit asked him to come back before Minnie's sleeping time.
He walked toward his parent and his daughter. When Minnie saw his daddy came back, she brightly smiled and extended both her hand as well to ask Kongpob picked her up.
" Daddy!"
Kongpob picked her up and kissed her cheeks.
" Minnie, we would go back now baby, mommy is waiting us. Say goodbye to grandpa and grandma."
Kongpob told Minnie then Minnie put her hand together and wai to her grandparents.
" Goodbye grandma and grandpa. Minnie and daddy leave first. See you next time!"
" Good girl... don't forget to visit grandpa again, Okay?" Mr Suthilak said and patted Minnie head gently.
" Yes grandpa"
" Kong, let mom hold her for a bit before you leave."
Even Both Mr and Madame Suthilak didn't want them to leave but they can't stop them, Arthit maybe worried about his baby and however they also have a lot of time to meet Minnie later.
After Kongpob and Minnie left, Madame Suthilak still sat on the living room with her husband. She was still sobbing in her husband embracing. Mr Suthilak can feel that his wife was really regretting for her mistake. He didn't know what he would say so he just can only comfort her.
After a long thinking Madame Suthilak had decided to do what she would. She wiped her tears away and looked up at her husband.
" I regretted for what I did to them. Because I think about our face I think about the social but I forget to think about my son's heart. After Kong found out what happened to both Minnie and his lover he must be hurt more than I felt now. If I don't break them apart we would see our granddaughter since she was a baby. She is so beautiful and innocent, I felt ashamed of myself when I looked at her."
As she continued to speak with wiped her tear: " You said right honey, once day I will regret and now I'm very regretful."
Mr Suthilak sighted and said: " So this time... what do you want to do?"
What she want to do? She just only want to visit Arthit and want to say sorry to him too even she knew maybe she would not be forgiven but she just want to do the right thing for them.
In her entire life, she always thought that what she had done always right but after she heard what happened to Minnie then she realized how many thing she had missed out on in her life because of her own judgment.
She had been wrong once so she did not want to be wrong a second time.
This time she chose to support her son.
" I want to apologize Kong's lover."
" Good, then?"
Madame Suthilak looked at her husband cold expression and she knew that this time he was not quite anymore.
" I choose to support their relationship."
" Then you agree to them be together?"
" Yes."
Mr Suthilak left a sigh of relief after he heard that.
"But I'm afraid that it won't easy to ask them for forgiving because what I did was extremely bad."
When Mr Suthilak fathomed his wife's word, he couldn't help but looked surprised.
Who would had thought that this woman, who had been stubborn in her whole life, would see the day that she gave in and compromised?
"Late is better than never. If you are honestly to ask them for forgiving, I believe that they will forgive you."
" Honey, Thank you."
" For what?"
" Thank you for your understanding."
" People always made a mistake and they deserve to be forgiven if they really realize their mistakes."

Arthit smiled again and again after Minnie told that grandparents was kindly to her. He was happy that Minnie was the sweetheart of everyone.
Now she was resting her head on Arthit's lap after Kongpob helped her bathing. Arthit was stroking her hair gently and lullaby her to sleep.
Kongpob went out from the bathroom and saw the sweet moment of both his beloved person. He couldn't help but smiling. He walked toward the bed and sat in front of Arthit and Minnie looking at her who fell asleep. He felt happiness filled up in his heart. He was glad that he can find both of them again and have a chance to provide himself that he really love them and want to be together forever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning, after a thorough check up, Arthit can leave hospital tomorrow as his was better now and nothing to worry about. Doctor Beam helped accompany him while Minnie and Kongpob went to Kongpob's office to pick up some important documents because Kongpob had left from work more than 1 weeks. Today his secretary kept calling him until Arthit cannot kept his silence and force Kongpob to go. But Kongpob asked him to bring Minnie together and he will come back as soon as he finishes his work.
Doctor Beam looked at Arthit's brightly face as he can see Arthit was fresh than before.
He smiled and said: " P is happy that you chose to forgive him, Arthit."
Arthit looked in daze to the brother who always help him since they knew each other.
" I'm still hesitant about this, P'Beam. I did it because of Minnie, I want to give her completely family."
Doctor Beam grabbed Arthit's hand and continued: " I know you did it because of your baby but P want you to open your heart and give yourself a chance. P believe that you still love him and P is sure that Kongpob love you so much. P can not order you to do what you don't want but as you are like my brother, P really want my brother get happiness."
" P'Beam... I.." Arthit didn't know what he would say.
Doctor continued: "I heard everything from Kongpob's sister, she is my friend. After you ran away from him, he found you everywhere and never ever stop finding you even once. P knew what you had through was hurt and made you afraid of love but P want to tell you that P always want to see Nong Arthit finding your real happiness."
After he kept quite for awhile, Arthit nodded his head.
" I will try P'Beam..."
