Book Happy Together Novels & Stories

The wedding date printed beneath the photos was February 22nd—the tenth anniversary of the day we first met. It had always felt like fate, and Andrew used to joke that it was a sign we were meant to spend our lives together. A sliver of fear crept into his heart. He knew how much he had put me through over the years and had initially planned to make it up to me once everything was settled. We had already spent ten years together, and he wanted another ten. But he had forgotten that I had once told him I could accept everything about him when I was in love with him. This included his proposal of living apart together after getting married and my raising Molly alone for the past six years.

Kevin's video painted him and Tessa as childhood sweethearts who had finally found their happy ending. The video had gone viral, and the comment section was full of messages. "My faith in love has been restored." "Childhood sweethearts make the best couples." "A long-time friend beats a perfect stranger any day." "What a heartfelt story of a couple reuniting! I wish them the best!" As I read all the comments filled with blessings and admiration, I couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. Yeah. If I weren't Tessa's boyfriend, if I weren't that "perfect stranger", I'd probably be touched by their story too.

The others sneered at me gleefully, blood seeping out of my mouth while my cheek swelled from the slap. Heidi even sighed as if she cared. "I'm doing this so that your honeymoon will be filled with happy memories! Quit being so stubborn and come with us. I promise you'll never forget this!" Seeing the glee in her eyes, I realized that she wanted to ruin my honeymoon trip from the start. Still, I nodded, to pretend to give in. "Alright, let's go." They wouldn't let me leave? Fine, I would stay… and watch them swim to their own demise!

Together, hand in hand, we would walk happily into the rest of our lives. [The End.]

Mira pouted, stubbornly raising her chin to emphasize her resolve. “I know… my wife is the best.” Jack chuckled lightheartedly as they got up and walked hand in hand towards the hot spring. Neither spoke as they rested in each other’s embrace, enjoying the serenity of the moment. Even though neither spoke, the magic of the hot spring revealed their deepest fears to the other, opening a window into each other’s thoughts. A smile curled across their faces as they realized that their fears were the same, the fear of losing each other, the fear of losing their hard-earned happiness.

May their marriage be the beginning of a new chapter filled with happiness and blessings. The end of a beautiful and touching story! Lisa and Devan, Moni and Robi, Sandra and Remos, as well as Eca and her husband, finally lived happily without any hostility.

He was convinced he had me completely under control. However, when he saw me walk away without looking back, panic finally crept into his eyes. The elevator kept beeping, warning that the doors couldn't close, yet Frankie still refused to move his hand. "Renee, where are you going? We promised we'd stay together for life. We promised to build something new together. How can you leave before we even get there? I won't allow it! I won't!" The elevator kept ringing. People downstairs were probably already cursing whoever was holding it up.

And now this— this child born from the ashes of everything we've survived, proof that some stories do get the endings they deserve. "Are you happy?" she asks, though she must feel the answer in how my arms tighten around her, in the slight tremor running through my entire frame. "Da," I hear myself choking out the word. "More than happy, milaya." I pull back far enough to see her face, to memorize this moment when our family became complete in ways I'd never dared imagine. "Terrified, overwhelmed, grateful beyond words— but happy doesn't even scratch the surface." She kisses me then, soft and sweet and tasting like promises kept and futures worth fighting for. Around us, The Fatal Seduction

Once I got home, I followed our usual routine and sent the receipt for a hundred and fifty dollars to our three-person group chat. My boyfriend, Corbin, was very quick to text in the group chat. [@Mabel_Marigold, let me get this one. Don’t worry about your share.] [I know money’s tight at home for you. Save it for when school starts.] My best friend, Mabel, refused. The two of them went back and forth in the group chat.
