Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking o'clock in the morning. "It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered. "Well that's exactly, why I am asking!" she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime. With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone. *** When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do? Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you? And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest. [WARNING: Some chapters may contain mature R-18 content.] --- Book cover by Sendaline_16

Inside The Bathroom

^_^

"No. I'm not staying here with you without Laurie." 

Laurie's head snapped due to January's stern tone of voice to what Atlas wanted. Even Atlas himself was taken aback. It was clear that he never expected January to react that harshly to him. 

The only reason why Laurie kept her mouth tightly shut was that despite January's harsh tone, she looked so sad. She was wondering if this was a reaction to drugs, or whether she was able to express her deepest feelings through the effect of drugs. 

An awkward silence engulfed the room. Laurie took a deep breath but released it ever so slowly as though she didn't want to break the silence between the three of them. 

January was staring at her hands and the corner of her eyes was glistening with tears that she was trying to keep from streaming her cheeks. 

When the silence became suffocating, Atlas leaned towards January and in a quiet voice, asked, "Babe, tell me what you want."
