His eyes fueled with desire, longing to indulge in her, yet finding the simplest action, like lifting his hand from the bed, was seemingly impossible for him. Closing his eyes in frustration, he stammered, "I... I couldn't... I couldn't fulfill your wishes." As the words hung in the air, Rose came to a sudden realization; it dawned on her that he was handicapped. The weight of the truth hit her – a person who couldn't even move his fingers, how could he possibly satisfy her needs? The sadness enveloped them both in that somber moment of understanding.

I referred to both of us "It's not working out, I can't keep pretending like it's perfect.... like we're perfect" He turned me around to face him "That's the thing, we don't have to be perfect, no one is perfect. But I'll be damned if I let you leave me all because of a stupid mistake I made. You belong with me, Malia.

I thought maybe…” Her voice hitched, her breath coming out in rapid, shallow bursts. “How do you expect me just to carry on, like this is – like it’s nothing?” “They’re bad people.

One of the senior board members cleared his throat before speaking. “Ms. Lee, we have encountered a critical issue involving recent shipments of our vehicles.” “What do you mean?” “There have been multiple reports from several branches,” he continued. “Most of the units delivered from the latest shipment have been found to be defective.” A brief silence followed his words, but it felt deafening. “Defective?” I repeated, my tone low and tense. “How extensive is the damage?”

I was lost and I blamed everybody, blamed myself but never you, Flower, after the day at the funeral, I never blamed you again. I have been distant lately because I couldn’t face you, I felt like a failure.
