PAIGE

The grocery store is crowded.

Saturday morning. Families. Couples. People living normal lives.

Marcus pushes the cart. Haruto reads labels. Julian stands by the produce, watching.

"You're staring," I say to Julian.

"I'm watching."

"Same thing."

"Different intention."

I laugh. Pick up an avocado. Squeeze it.

"Is this ripe?"

"I don't know."

"You don't know?"

"I don't cook."

"Then why are you here?"

He looks at me. "To be with you."

I set the avocado down. Kiss his cheek.

"Good answer."

Marcus's voice. Soft."Yeah.""What do we do now?""Now we live.""Just live?""Just live."He pulls me close. "I don't know how.""Then learn."He looks at me. Those blue eyes.

The one where this all started.Mrs. Chen brings tea. Five cups. She sits with us."You look different," she says to me."Different how?""Lighter. The angry is go

    PAIGEThe court date comes fast.Two weeks after the deposition. Marcus barely sleeps. Haruto makes coffee at 3 AM. Julian watches the window."Marcus." I sit beside him on the couch. "You need to rest.""I can't.""You need to try."He looks at me. Dark circles under his eyes. "What if we lose?""Then we lose. And we figure it out.""That's not comforting.""It's honest."He pulls me into a hug."I love you.""I love you too."Haruto appears with coffee. Julian with a suit."Today," Haruto says, "we fight.""Today," Julian says, "we win."Marcus stands."Let's go."---MARCUSThe courtroom is cold.Wood benches. High ceilings. A judge in black robes.My mother sits across the aisle. Her lawyers beside her. Her face is pale."Mr. Whitmore." The judge's voice is tired. "Are you ready to proceed?""Yes, Your Honor.""Then let's begin."---PAIGEWe sit in the front row.Marcus at the table. Helen beside him.Haruto on my left. Julian on my right."Paige." Julian's voice is low. "Your ha

    PAIGEHelen calls at 8 AM."Mrs. Whitmore has agreed to a deposition. Thursday. 10 AM. My office."Marcus puts the phone on speaker. "She agreed?""Her lawyers advised her to cooperate.""That's not like her.""No," Helen says. "It's not. Which means she's planning something."The room goes quiet."Do you want us there?" Julian asks."I want Marcus there. The rest of you can wait outside."Paige nods. "We'll be there."---MARCUSThursday comes too fast.I wear a suit. Paige wears black. Haruto and Julian wear gray."Ready?" Paige asks."No.""Good. That means you're paying attention."She kisses my cheek.We walk out together.---Helen's office is cold.White walls. Glass table. Chairs that cost more than my first car.My mother is already there. Two lawyers beside her. Her smile is plastic. Her eyes are ice."Marcus." She doesn't stand. "So glad you could make it.""I said I would.""And you brought your... friends.""My partners."She looks at Paige. At Haruto. At Julian."Still h

    PAIGEWe drive back to the city on Sunday.The trees blur past. The sky is gray. Haruto's hand is on my thigh."You're quiet," he says."I'm thinking.""About what?""About the cabin. About us. About what happens now.""What happens now is we go home. We see Marcus and Julian. We tell them we're okay.""And then?"He glances at me. "And then we fight. Together."I take his hand. Squeeze."Together."---MARCUSThey walk in at 4 PM.Paige first. Haruto behind her. Both of them lighter than when they left."Hey," Paige says."Hey yourself."Julian appears in the doorway. "How was it?""Good," Haruto says. "Needed."Marcus walks to Paige. Pulls her into a hug."You look better.""I feel better."He looks at Haruto. "You too."Haruto nods. "I processed some things.""Good things?""Necessary things."Julian pours coffee. Hands out cups."Sit," he says. "Tell us everything."---PAIGEWe sit on the couch.The plant is by the window. The curtains are open. The city is loud."We talked," I s

    PAIGEHis lips don't leave mine.Firelight dances across his face. His hands are in my hair, then on my back, then pulling me closer like he's afraid I'll disappear."Haruto.""Don't talk.""But—""Don't talk." His voice is rough. "Just feel."He lays me down on the blanket. The fire crackles beside us. The cabin is dark except for the glow.His hand traces my face. My jaw. My neck."You're shaking.""I know.""Good or bad?""Good." I pull him down to me. "Very good."---HARUTOShe's warm beneath me.Her dark hair spreads across the blanket. Her eyes are half-closed. Her lips are parted."Beautiful," I whisper."You've said that before.""I'll say it again." I kiss her neck. Her collarbone. Her shoulder. "Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful."Her hands find the hem of my shirt. Push it up. I sit back, pull it off. Her hands touch my chest. My stomach. My hips."You're staring," I say."I'm allowed.""You're making me nervous.""Good."I laugh. Low.Then I kiss her again.---PAIGEHis ha
