"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

After much crying and self-loathing, Rina finally quiets down and falls asleep. But not without him lying down next to her in bed. Rina has been acting like a child for the few days she has been staying at his apartment.

He felt sorry for her but at the same time, he couldn't help but felt a tinge of annoyance. Her problem was her own doing. She knew a long time ago that Hideaki Nakamura has someone he likes and it wasn't her. But Rina was persistent. She insisted that Hideaki is the one. And she's not going to have another man if it wasn't him.

He blew an air of frustration. Rina had those outbursts when they were still climbing into each other's bed. Well, they are still in each other's bed—in his bed, specifically. But in the past, they fuck each other. Way back in high school. When he was head over heels in love with her but didn't have the balls to confess.

Are You Alone?
