The Family Man--Family is the Most Important Thing
Horace 2022-08-05 10:22:38
Jack, who is nostalgic among the flowers, is already the CEO of a business. He has no shortage of women every night. However, on Christmas Eve, when his work partners go home to spend the holiday with their families, he is the only one who walks out of the office alone. I was afraid that when I fell asleep, I would wake up and find that the world had changed, and I suddenly realized that it was just Duke Zhou Mengdie. The man sees it and thinks that it is more important to work hard for the lover and the family so they can give the child the best education and the most comfortable life. However, he has gained in his career, but he has indeed neglected the family. Women see that sensibility, love, and children are the most important things. Where to live a happy life, where to live If the husband is there and leaves everything behind, it must be the kind of marriage a chicken with a chicken and a dog with a dog.

Kate: When you got on that plane, I was sure it was over. I left the airport afraid I'd never see you again. And then you showed up the very next day. That was a good surprise. You know, I think about the decision you made... maybe I was being naive, but I believed that we would grow old together in this house. That we'd spend holidays here and have our grandchildren come visit us here. I had this image of us, all grey and wrinkly, and me working in the garden and you re-painting the deck. But things change. If you need this, Jack, if you really need this, I will take these kids from a life they love and I'll take myself from the only home we've ever shared together and I'll move wherever you need to go. I'll do that because I love you. I love you, and that's more important to me than our address. I choose us.

Jack: We have a house in Jersey. We have two kids, Annie and Josh. Annie's not much of a violin player, but she tries real hard. She's a little precocious, but that's only because she says what's on her mind. And when she smiles... And Josh, he has your eyes. He doesn't say much, but we know he's smart. He's always got his eyes open, he's always watching us. Sometimes you can look at him and you just know he's learning something new. It's like witnessing a miracle. The house is a mess but it's ours. After 122 more payments, it's going to be ours. And you, you're a non-profit lawyer. That's right, you're completely non-profit, but that doesn't seem to bother you. And we're in love. After 13 years of marriage we're still unbelievably in love. You won't even let me touch you until I've said it. I sing to you. Not all the time, but definitely on special occasions. We've dealt with our share of surprises and made a lot of sacrifices but we've stayed together. You see, you're a better person than I am. And it made me a better person to be around you. I don't know, maybe it was just all a dream. Maybe I went to bed one lonely night in December and I imagined it all. But I swear, nothing has ever felt more real. And if you get on that plane right now, it'll disappear forever. I know we could both go on with our lives and we'd both be fine, but I've seen what we could be like together. And I choose us. Please, Kate. One cup of coffee. You can always go to Paris. Just, please, not tonight.

Kate: Ok, Jack.
