It was the tenth year Andrew and I had been together. Behind my back, he agreed to an arranged engagement party his family set up. That night, after getting his text, I went over and saw him. He looked at me, flustered and annoyed. "I have to answer to my family sooner or later. Can't you act like a grown man for once?" Later that night, he held me close, trying to smooth things over. "Give it a few years. Once I have a child with her, I'll leave her and spend the rest of my life with you." He had no idea I wouldn't make it to that day.
