can-can episode 2

Ending of “Can-Can”

Have you ever read short story "can-can" ? so, what do you think about it ? I think there's something that make that story feels un finish ending. There so many possibilities with the ending especially about the wife and their child. In this case, i will try to finish the ending of Can-Can with my own perception, and still use third person of point of view, i make this story happy ending.

“Have you ever did can-can dance?” he asked to Sarah unexpectedly.

“No, I never do that awkward dance. Why ? “

He just smiled without spoke anything. He still imagined how his wife smiled and danced cheerfully, held up her skirt and kicked her legs, and his child laughed happily. He asked to himself why he never realized that the happiness of his family was coming when they laughed and did something exciting together ? He never thought what will he do if he found his wife did the same thing like him. Having a date with another man and let his children search their own happiness. Why didn’t he stayed at home, played with his children, and made the happiness of his family together?

He loved his wife and his children, just a little annoyed sometimes. He missed the times when he, his wife, and children went to zoo, had a walk, enjoyed the place , and laughed together when a monkey made his child scared and then cried. All memories about his family made him confused. Suddenly his phone was ringing , a call from his wife. She asked him to buy milk for their child after he finished his business. Then Sarah asked to him.

“Is it your wife?”                                                 

“Yes ..” He just answered shortly.

Then they started to keep silent again, but finally he decided to talk something to Sarah.

“I think I should go home now, I will accompany you back to café. Sorry, maybe this is the last for us“

During on the way to café, Sarah didn’t say anything. He knew from Sarah’s face that she was annoyed, but he thought that was the best choice. He couldn’t have a date with Sarah continuously while his wife and children expected him as a good husband and good father. He couldn’t erase the smile of his wife when she was dancing “Can-Can”, and the expression of his children when they laughed happily together.

When he arrived home, he found his wife and his child were dancing “can-can” together. He approached and then embraced them tightly. When he embraced his wife, he whispered something to her.

“I’m sorry, I love you”

Then his child asked him to wear one of mother skirt and then danced “can-can” happily together.
