I wore a simple dress and sneakers; he wore a navy suit and looked like someone you’d see in a movie poster.

We said our vows, signed the papers, and went back to our little apartment as husband and wife.

We fell asleep tangled up, exhausted and happy.

The knock came late the next morning.

Firm, not frantic.

A man in a dark coat stood there.

I pulled on a hoodie and opened the door.
