MARCUS

“ phone buzzes at 9 AM”.

Amelia. Her name lights up the screen. I haven't spoken to her in months. Maybe longer.

"Marcus." Her voice is bright. Too bright. "You're coming to the wedding, right?"

"What wedding?"

"Mine. Saturday. The family estate. Didn't you get the invitation?"

I look at the stack of unopened mail on the counter. "It's probably in there somewhere."

"You should come. Bring a date."

I pause. "A date?"

"Someone special. Mother said you've been seeing someone."

My mother. O

    PAIGEThe garden is full of people I don't know.Women in expensive dresses. Men in tailored suits. Everyone holding champagne. Everyone staring."You're causing a scene," Marcus whispers."I'm breathing. That's not a scene.""You're breathing loudly."I elbow him. He grins.Haruto is on my left. His hand is on my lower back. Julian is on my right. His grey eyes scan the crowd like he's counting enemies."Relax," I whisper to Julian."I am relaxed.""You look like you're about to kill someone.""That's my relaxed face."Marcus laughs. A woman walks toward us. Older. Elegant. Cold."Marcus." Her voice is polished. "You came.""Hello, Aunt Patricia."Her eyes move to me. To Haruto. To Julian."And you brought... guests.""My partners."She blinks. "Partners?""Paige. Haruto. Julian. This is my aunt, Patricia."I extend my hand. "Lovely to meet you."She stares at my hand like it might bite her. Then she shakes it. Brief. Cold."I've heard about you.""Hopefully good things."She doesn't

Of course."I'll be there.""With a date?"I look across the room. Paige is on the floor, reading a book. Haruto is beside her, pretending to read but really watching her. Julian is by the window, coffee in hand, grey eyes on the city."Yes," I say. "With a date."---PAIGEMarcus hangs up. Walks to me."Who was that?" I ask."My cousin Amelia. She's getting married Saturday. She wants me to come.""Are you going?""We're going."I set my book down. "We?""You. Me. Haruto. Julian. All of us."Har

    PAIGEThe world doesn't end.The sun rises. The city wakes up. People go to work.And we're still here. On the floor. In our empty apartment. Together."Paige."Marcus's voice. Soft."Yeah.""It's morning.""I know.""Did you sleep?""A little.""Me too."He pulls me closer. His chest is warm. His heartbeat is steady."We survived," he says."We survived."Haruto stirs beside me. His hand finds my leg."What time is it?""Eight.""Too early."Julian sits up. Grey eyes already open."I made coffee.""When?""An hour ago."Haruto groans. "You're insane.""I'm awake. There's a difference."---MARCUSMy phone has stopped buzzing.The reporters got bored. The board scheduled a meeting for Monday. My mother hasn't called back."Marcus."Paige is beside me. Coffee in her hand."Yeah.""How are you?""I'm fine.""You're not fine."I look at her. Those dark eyes. Full of everything."I'm scared," I admit."Of what?""Of losing you. Losing them. Losing everything I just fought for."She sets h

    PAIGEThe Chronicle arrives at 10 AM.Her name is Sarah. Blonde hair. Kind eyes. A notebook in her hand and no judgment on her face."You must be Paige," she says."I must be."She looks at Marcus. At Haruto. At Julian. All three in black suits. All three standing in our bare living room like soldiers before battle."This is quite the setup," she says."It's quite the relationship," Marcus replies.She sits on the floor. Crosses her legs. No chair yet. No couch. Just boxes and a plant and four people who love each other."Where do you want me to start?"Paige sits across from her. "At the beginning."---HARUTOSarah looks at me first."Haruto. You were her first love.""Yes.""You lost contact for six years.""My father kept us apart.""And now?""And now I'm not letting anyone keep us apart again."She writes something in her notebook. "Marcus. You were her college boyfriend. You broke up because of family pressure."Marcus nods. "My mother. She didn't think Paige was good enough."

    MARCUSMy phone rings at 7 PM.My mother's name on the screen.I step into the bedroom. Close the door."Mother.""Marcus." Her voice is cold. Controlled. "Your girlfriend is impossible.""I know.""She refused to be intimidated.""I know.""She actually thinks she loves you."I lean against the wall. "Because she does.""Don't be naive.""I'm not naive. I'm in love. There's a difference."She is quiet for a moment. Then: "You're making a mistake.""I'm not.""She's not Whitmore material.""I don't care.""You'll care when the board finds out. When the press finds out. When your father's legacy is dragged through the mud because you're sleeping with a woman who has two other boyfriends."I grip the phone tighter. "Is there a point to this call?""The point is I'm not giving up. On you. On this family. On what's right.""Goodbye, Mother.""Marcus—"I hang up.---PAIGEMarcus comes out of the bedroom.His face is pale. His jaw is tight."What did she say?" I ask."The usual. I'm making

    PAIGEMy phone buzzes at 7 AM.Unknown number. I almost ignore it."Hello?""Paige Chen." A woman's voice. Cold. Polished. "This is Eleanor Whitmore."I sit up in bed. Haruto stirs beside me."Mrs. Whitmore?""Call me Eleanor. We need to talk. About my son. About you. About this... arrangement."My heart pounds. "I don't think—""Lunch. Today. 1 PM. The Whitmore Hotel. I'll send a car."The line goes dead.I stare at the phone."Paige?" Haruto's voice is sleepy. "Who was that?""Marcus's mother."He sits up. "What did she want?""Lunch. Just me. To talk about us."Marcus walks in. Rubbing his eyes. "Talk about what?"I look at him. "She didn't say. But I don't think it's good."---MARCUS"Don't go."I say it at breakfast. Julian is at the counter. Haruto is by the window. Paige is across from me."I have to.""You don't have to do anything.""She's your mother, Marcus. If I'm going to be in your life, I need to face her.""You don't know what she's like.""I know enough.""No, you do
