Now We Both Look Asian

In my tenth year of marriage, my old childhood friend, Joshua Sears, posts a photo on social media. Both Joshua and my wife, Sabrina Lawson, are hugging his son, Andy Sears, and my daughter, Tiana Jenkins, in it. The four of them look very close to each other. The caption accompanying the post says, "Blessed to have the perfect son and daughter." I leave a comment below the post, saying, "Looking good together." A few seconds later, the post is deleted. The next morning, Sabrina rushes home and yells at me. "Ashton Jenkins! Joshua was finally feeling better for once. Why did you have to trigger him again?" Tiana shoves me hard and snaps in an accusatory tone, "It's all your fault that Andy's crying now!" I take out a copy of the divorce agreement and slam it down before them. "Yes, it's all my fault. That's why I'm stepping out of the picture now. Then, the four of you can form the wholesome family you've always wanted."

Istrikta si Sarah pagdating sa rules; hindi niya ‘yon nilalabag at ayaw niyang may lumabag niyon lalo na kung mismong rules niya ang sinuway. Subalit nagbago ang takbo ng mundo niya nang makilala si Erhart, ang lalaking mahilig lumabag sa rules. Araw-araw nitong pinapasakit ang kaniyang ulo simula nang mag-krus ang landas nila. Ginawa na niya ang lahat ng paraan upang iwasan ito pero talagang makulit ang binata at ayaw siyang tantanan hanggang siya na mismo ang bumali sa sarili niyang batas—na BAWAL siyang magmahal. Dahil tinanggap niya ito ng buong puso kahit na hindi niya lubusang kilala ang pagkatao nito. Masaya ang naging pagsasama nila ngunit ang magandang panaginip na ‘yon ay naging isang bangungot nang may matuklasan siya sa pagkatao nito. Ang babaeng kinamumuhian niya, na nagluwal sa kaniya ay konektado sa binata. Ito pa mismo ang humiling sa kaniya na layuan ang kasintahan dahil kung hindi, masisira ang kilalala at respetadong pamilya ng binata. Magawa niya kayang talikuran ang lalaking minamahal o dapat niya bang itong ipaglaban?

Outside the private room, Charlotte Riley overheard Zac Gibson say, “Charlotte is gorgeous, no doubt. But the reason I pursued her? She reminded me of Wendy Cooper. For years, I was just searching for traces of Wendy in her.” That night, she finally made the call she had been avoiding for years. “Dad, I’m ready. I’ll come home and go through with the engagement.” Later, when Zac saw Charlotte at a high-society gala—elegant, untouchable, and more dazzling than ever—only then did he realize the truth. And he completely lost it. * The night Charlotte walked away from her family’s arranged marriage, Sean stood by the window, swirling his wine, his expression unreadable. “Lottie, one day, you’ll come back to me willingly.” Rumor had it that Jersey City's most powerful heir, Sean Jasper, was cold, reserved, and indifferent to women. Charlotte believed it. Until she realized just how intense and unwavering his devotion truly was beneath that composed, self-restrained facade.

He jumps through hoops and kneels before every god he can find, begging for just one more glance from her. With red eyes and shaking hands, he pleads, "Can you please... love me once more?" However, the truth is that a late apology is worth less than nothing. Beverly already has someone new in her life. There's no place left for Evan or their son.

No matter how hard she tried, Darius always met her with nothing but cold indifference. He forgot her birthday. Dismissed her achievements. Even their daughter turned her back on her, choosing Emma—the woman with a sweet smile and a heart full of lies. One glance from Emma mattered more to Darius than all the years she stood by his side. One whimper from Emma was enough to make him drop everything and rush to her like she was the only woman that ever existed. She waited. She gave her all. And in return, she was left behind—again and again. Even her own daughter stood with Emma now. So she finally made her choice. She left.
