Arthur grew up in a happy family. Both of his parents were circus workers, his father was a clown, so they were never sad. With parents he traveled a lot, saw and tried many things, and grew up with the idea that black lines can not last long, and to quickly turn them into white ones, you need to think positively.
Julia was attracted to him on this wave of eternal joy. Her parents were very serious, always frowning and demanding. They could not believe that their daughter, a lawyer, wanted to marry a trainer. Arthur had a job, or didn’t have one, or was moonlighting as an animator. But is that life? Is this stability? That’s why they didn’t like my son-in-law right away.
Julia rarely had to drag the family on her shoulders, because her husband never got discouraged and never was afraid to take up one job or another, he believed that as fated, so it is fated, and the loss of his family, he would not give for nothing. Their children were also walking beams of happiness, maybe that is why his mother-in-law did not want to take them in. The woman treated her son-in-law and his children with caution and dislike.
She had to change her mind after she became very ill. She caught that damned virus and was in the hospital, and she was sure that she was going to lose her skates. Her husband worked, her daughter worked, and her son-in-law was out of work, so he came to see her all the time with her grandchildren. He cheered her and the children up. The nurses often joked that she was treated in their hospital with fruit foam and humor.
A few months of illness and close communication with her cheerful son-in-law, and the woman finally cooled down. More accurately, it is not so, on the contrary, she lit up. The same warmth and happiness that radiated from her daughter’s husband. It was clear to her why her daughter Julia was happy around Arthur – he would not let her be sad or bored.
It seems that we all sometimes lack such a man in life, who would support, amuse, and remind us that black lines are always followed by white ones.
