How to be Happy, 101
She scrubs laundry by hand to make sure her children
look their best in school hundreds of miles away from
the island culture she grew up in, yet on another island
cold, foreign, teaching kids and reminding her husband
about the importance of work. At least he doesn’t beat
her anymore. Proof has no compromise, and the proof
that this love of hers is only possible from afar, or with
a chaperone has been made, and then broken. Twice a
month, once she figures it out. This best chance can not
come and go. Her long-distance supporter, who she knows
will never stop loving her, and will smile one giant absurd,
ridiculous smile swelling up form his heart because this
is not customary in his life of lending help: falling in love
was never the goal before because friendships started with
his desire to make a life better, but this one grew, blossomed
and became a soft, a truly tender love, full of caring, even a
trip in full daylight, including an IUD insertion (ouch!), and
nurses, knowing the Korean name, knowing he is not. Love,
respect, concern, happiness, hope, extending a hug, now the
negotiation of love, how to make it work. How to love again.
