"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

He was unforgiving on his bike as he pushed it to its fastest as they took the highway, Joe was hanging for his dear life behind him. His arms circled around his waist so tightly that if his thoughts weren't occupied with the possibility of what could happen to Rin, he would definitely smack Joe on the head.

They just finished performing in an underground event and he had to come back because one of Rin's classmates called his phone to inform him that they brought her to the hospital because she slit her wrist.

Joe wanted them to take his car but he refused. Taking his car would take time. Traffic can be unpredictable and taking the train, though, always in time, he had to walk a bit far to reach the hospital address that Rin's classmate gave him.

It was a good thing that he brought his bike for tonight's event.
