During Christmas dinner, I thanked my aunt for the keychain she had sent me for my birthday two months earlier. My aunt suddenly stopped stirring the sauce and said, “I bought you a $400,000 apartment.

He cleared his throat and slid the note toward me. “Your sister wants to see you.” It was her handwriting, not theirs. I folded the paper and set it back down. My husband’s hand covered mine. “After everything,” I said, looking straight at him. He just nodded, waiting for me to continue.
