~We tend to think of marriage as a block of time. We got married. This block of time begins, and we hope it continues running until “death do us part.” ~

I returned home, my heart heavy and my mind in turmoil. I sat on the edge of the bed, tears streaming down my face. The weight of the deception was crushing.

My once comforting space now felt suffocating, the walls closing in around me as I tried to process the betrayal that had shattered my world. I had been tricked and deceived in the worst and most humiliating way.

The echo of what he did to me tonight was lower than I could have ever imagined him doing. I can’t believe he thought I would fall for his scheme.

How could he do this to me? I thought we had built a life together, woven with dreams, laughter, and an unspoken promise of loyalty. My heart sank deeper as the thought replayed the scene of tonight. It felt like a dagger was being driven into my heart. The love I once knew now felt like a mirage that had slipped through

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 77 - Where Do I Start?

    ~Sexual intimacy in a marriage is essential (and a lack of it can destroy the marriage). Still, in time, all married couples realize that a sexual relationship is only one of the myriad ways to experience love. ~Jake laughed. "No, that wasn't enough." "Then you add to that, guess what, everyone! I'm marrying a pregnant girl," Hailey said, still giggling. She didn't know why it was so funny now, as she looked back at it. They both found things that happened at the wedding hilarious, now that they're conversing about it hours later. Was it the mood? Or the mixture of mood and tiredness? Jake's laughter waned as he continued to watch Hailey laugh. He uttered sweetly, "God...I married a beautiful woman. Who would've thought a popular city lawyer like me would have experienced being married at a ranch to someone so wonderful and exciting?"Hailey looked at him bashfully. "I didn't do anything much." "Oh, you did. Now I know why my grandfather always said Behind every successful man

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 76 - Oh What A Night

    ~When one thinks of intimacy, the mind immediately translates that to mean sexual intimacy. ~Everyone started leaving the reception around 1 a.m. Horn honked as their guests all went back up Whispering Creek's road heading to their various homes. Leon and Soo-hee stayed another 30 minutes after all the guests had left. The four of them sat at one of the tables, eating wedding cake, as they talked to one another well. Hailey mainly listened. Hailey contributed where she could to the conversation. They concluded by discussing how beautiful everything was and how the neighbors had enjoyed themselves.“I’m glad Bridgette left the wedding,” Leon says.Hailey looked surprised. “She was here?” “Yes, but she left immediately. It wasn’t anything to concern yourself about. I let her know where I stood.”The two brothers hugged each other, saying, "Let's talk about everything soon over dinner. Okay?" Jake smiled.Hailey thanked them for coming to the wedding and turned her attention to Leon

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 75 - Challenging Family In-laws

    ~You might encounter many unexpected and unsolicited challenges after marriage.~Leon had been observing his brother all evening since he said his vows and kissed Hailey. Later, Jake approaches Leon and says, "Have you met Hailey yet?" Leon shook his head no."Why? Jake asked pensively, then blurted out. "Oh, I know why! I forgot that since you married Soo-hee, you no longer speak English. Hold up. I'll be right back. No problem, I'll translate for you, hyung!"Before Leon could stop Jake, he was off to get Hailey. Leon had the impulse to get up from the table, walk away, and hide so that Jake couldn't find him, but Soo—hee came over."Honey, are you enjoying yourself at Jake's wedding reception? It turned out to be nice having a wedding here on the ranch. I'm so happy for him. Hailey is such a nice person. Have you met her yet?"Leon looks at his wife. " Why is everyone asking me that?! You know I can't speak English. So no, I haven't officially met her." Soo-hee laughed, rubbing

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 74 - A Memorable Reception

    ~The perfect husband may look different for everyone, but a few common qualities can set you up for a more successful marriage.~Hailey remembered her promise to Jake, which she had agreed to give this a try for six months. And, just like that, she embraced it all—the uncertainty, the joy, and even the judgmental glances from those who didn’t understand. After all, they were not just pretending anymore; they were building a family and life and rewriting their narrative together.When Jake sees Hailey's beautiful face, with its warm, ebony eyes and plush lips, he tenderly smiles to ease her hesitancy. But the small crowd takes solace in that hesitancy, hoping that the kiss won't happen. That's when Jake does what his family and neighbors think is unthinkable. Their lips come together, and you can hear the small crowd softly gasp.Hailey felt nothing but warmth from his lips, drowning out their shock. The taste of Jake's lips was sweet against hers. Jake moved his mouth slowly and gently

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 73 - Cold Feet, Is it Real?

    ~We may not be sure this is my ideal partner or perfect husband.~ Hailey stood in front of Jake and their wedding guest, with a whirlwind of emotions swirling within her. The tremors in her body were a mix of adrenaline and anxiety, her heart racing so loudly she was sure everyone in the room could hear it. There she was, in a beautiful white dress that clung to her figure, betraying the bump that had formed beneath it. Judgmental and unforgiving eyes were upon her. She could practically feel the weight of their stares on her skin, a constant reminder of societal expectations that loomed larger than life.The justice of the peace cleared his throat, and his voice cut through the tension like a knife. “Jake, you may now kiss your bride.” That phrase, meant to bring them together, suddenly felt like a boulder resting on her chest. Would she be able to fulfill this role and signify a union in front of everyone, especially when doubts about the legitimacy of this union danced in her mind

  • A Marriage Without Boundaries   Stage 72 - Love Put To The Test

    ~ Does forgiving someone mean you have to be with them?~ Leon turned around. "Really? I didn’t think you ever got nervous as a big-time lawyer! This girl must be some kind of chick to marry you here at the ranch and live here, too.”“I told you I would get married on the ranch at Whispering Creek. That's where I want to get married. Right in my backyard." Leon shook his head at his brother. "First of all, what girl did you convince to marry you? And on top of that, marry you on a horse farm? I can't wait to see who she is." Leon chuckled, still shaking his head at Jake as he threw the small football back across the room to Leon. Leon laughed as he caught the ball. "Don't worry about that; you'll see soon enough.”“Alright then, let's prepare your nervous lips to say those vows and kiss your pretty bride." "Oh, I'm ready! That's the best part. Kissing the bride." Jake replied, puckering his lips, teasing Leon. The guys got their cue to march out. Jake says, "I wish Maw and Paw
