“wife and husband fight“
It was just another evening in our small home. The kids were asleep, the TV was on, and I was in the kitchen doing the dishes. My husband, Sameer, was scrolling on his phone, sitting on the sofa, tired from work. I was tired too. Maybe more tired than I even realized.

Write a Story in Reverse
The Last Goodbye She closed the door without a word. The silence after the click was deafening—final, like a gravestone pressed into place. The scent of her still lingered in the apartment, light and floral, but her presence had already slipped out of reach. His hands were shaking, not from anger, but from the aching void left in the wake of everything unsaid.

Truth Be Told: Letters to My Loved Ones Series. Content Warning.
them, Someday when I'm gone from here, I want my children and loved ones to know just how much I loved them and not only that, but I want the whole world to know. Not just words, of course my actions as well. My mother died suddenly when I was seven months pregnant with SJ (6, autism, loves donuts). I didn’t get a chance to tell her how much I really loved her. So, guess what... you get to read about Mama Lott right here (rapid blink). You will also read a letter to my daughter, who lived with my mother for a time, to my oldest son, who is my middle child and often reserved because of his disability. My two eldest (daughter 21, the K-pop guru, son 18, Mr. Tech). Those letters will really take time. I was a young mom and there is a lot of pain there for all of us, so bear with me. This letter though, this is SJ's and to be honest I feel somewhere down the road, maybe at graduation, God give me long life, I’ll write him another one. But for now, here it goes! (of course I cried... hush up).
