"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking  o'clock in the morning.

"It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered.

"Well that's exactly, why I am asking!"  she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime.

With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone.

***
When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do?

Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you?

And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. 

What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! 

But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. 

Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest.

Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

"If you don't like Bella still staying in your old apartment, you should talk to your brother and not me. I'm sure Bella is staying there not because we are friends but because your brother asks her to do so."

She splattered the blank canvas a black paint. She had no idea what she was going to paint but listening to Mei Mei with her underhanded comments, she felt like black is a good choice to paint.

Mei Mei is one of the few people she considered her best friend. They have been friends way back when they were in high school. They spent so many summers and school vacations together when they were teenagers. But when they became an adult, they just did the usual catch, which wasn't often.

Welcome Back!
