I Wish You Well
We felt like strangers now, and I couldn’t help but wonder, what did our seven years together even mean?
Due to my health, it has always been hard for me to conceive. In the beginning, whenever his mother would pester us about having kids, Eric always had my back.
“Mom, I’m not ready for kids yet. My career is just taking off,” he used to say.
Thinking back, it was almost laughable. As I couldn’t get pregnant, we decided to sponsor a child in a rural area, and somehow, that led to Grace becoming a part of his life. Over time, he stopped defending me and started echoing his mother’s demands, pressuring me to take fertility pills every day.
