---- Chapter 1 When I was bedridden in the hospital, plenty of people came to visit me. Most of my close friends dropped by, but Thomas didn't visit at all, even though he was my boyfriend. He only called to say, "Mel has been crying nonstop, so I can't leave her. You need to take care of yourself. "T can't talk anymore. Mel refuses to eat unless I feed her.

"The wedding ceremony that's supposed to take place a month from now has been canceled. Don't waste your time coming." 25 days later, I was discharged from the hospital. I hailed a cab and returned to my marital home. The rose bushes that I had planted in front of the villa had been dug up and replaced with stalks of lettuce. The swing set had also been taken away and replaced with a huge signboard that read, "Mel and Thomas' House of Love." There was even a cartoon drawing of a couple kissing on the signboard.
