That I wasn’t his first choice humbled me.
But when he kissed me, delicate lips caressing mine, after we exchanged vows, and planted the lotus blossom in my hair, and that night, fitted his hips between my legs and filled me till I overflowed, soaking my bangs with the sweat of his brow…
I prayed my sister, three months dead, would not be jealous.
