A Marriage of Secrets
Acerca de este libro electrónico
When I finally joined a matrimonial site at thirty, I carried that dream with me. The screen of my laptop glowed with a sterile, artificial light, a stark contrast to the vibrant, chaotic world outside my window where kites of every color danced against a saffron sunset. I scrolled through endless profiles, each a small, curated window into a stranger’s life, the quiet clicking of the mouse the only sound in my room. I was searching for a partner to build a life with, to share the quiet comfort of dawn and the sweet burden of dreams, maybe even to start a family. I longed for the easy rhythm I’d seen in my parents, a love that was both a sanctuary and an adventure.
