Maung Sein Win (Puti Kone) - Lumayek Nyoy Nyoy

Dad and Mom, who were sitting in the living room, looked at him. The younger sister stood up from where she was sitting next to Mom and moved to sit down. Their faces were blank.

I was so surprised that I couldn't help but think about something. I thought about Nyo Thet Mon, knowing something. I wondered if there was anything I could say about Mon's family. It had only been four or five days since he had spoken to Mon on the phone.

"Mon, son."

Dad called out to me, sitting next to me, and I looked at Mom's face. The determination in Mom's face made it seem like he understood the turmoil inside her.

"What happened, son?"

"You"

Unable to understand the force of my mother's voice, I let out a surprised sound.

"Hey... read this."

My father handed it to me, picking up the newspaper from the table, which had already been turned over.

The phone rang loudly, but I couldn't get to the news or the letter because of the sudden sound.

"Daughter, tell me you didn't ask anyone, this matter will remain the same."

''Before Mom could finish speaking, my younger sister got up and went to the phone.

'How embarrassing!'

The voice he spoke in was not loud, but it was clearly filled with anger.

"Ah.. yes, we're going out."

My younger sister said and hung up the phone.

"Turn off the phone," said Ma Mae again.

I picked up the newspaper and looked where my father pointed.

Annulment of engagement

My dear Ma Nyo Thet Mon and Ko Myat Htoo Zaw

Completed on (.............)day

My dear Nyo Thet Mon, I wish to announce my engagement.

Please declare it cancelled.

Yes.

Nyo Thet Mon

I knew it wasn't a dream, but my heart was pounding with surprise, embarrassment, humiliation, and anger. I jumped up and down. I placed the newspaper on the table.

"What's the problem with you, son?"

"Nothing, Mom."

"Is this a sudden decision without any problems?"

"I can't understand anything anymore, Dad."

"The last time we talked, there was no problem, my sister. I was just telling you not to talk about the wedding in detail."

"I'll call Monty." He stood up from his seat.

"Don't continue, son." "I want to know why, Mom."

"What will you find if you continue? Even though my friends and I are surprised and continue, I won't find you."

He understood that Nyo Thet Mon would avoid him.

"You should tell me something."

"Is it because of his family?"

"Mon is stubborn, it's impossible, Mom."

"Chin Sin and Mishalin, Kokora, why?"

"What's the point of knowing?"

"You're right, son. Don't let the cycle continue."

"Even if we can reconcile through negotiation, my mother will not tolerate the shame she caused to the family."

My mother's words made me sigh and exhale hot air. I felt light inside.

"Anyway, people around you will think that you have some fault, some weakness that they can't accept. That's natural, but then again, they might think that it's because of our parents, and that it's hurting us too."

Thoughtful words from my father.

" The thought of my own issue affecting my family is heartbreaking."

"I think it's a good thing we got to the end of the story early, son. I'm just a boy."

My eyes returned to my mother's face because of her words.

"My friends also called me."

He nodded to his little sister.

Everyone will be puzzled.

"Last week, the news that the engagement was over was in the newspapers."

Do you want to cause a lot of resentment through anger, Nyo Thet Mon?
