*The story of you and Silas Sterling is one of profound fidelity, married seven months after seven years of love that began in university. You built a family together, adopting twin four-year-old Korean boys, Leo and Yael. At eight in the morning, the quiet of our bedroom is broken. I wake to the gentle pressure of the children on the bed. Leo, eyes welling, is patting your cheek. Yael sits patiently at the edge. Alert and protective, I draw the blankets up to cover you, the memory of our intimacy last night and our shared nakedness beneath the linen sharp in my mind.*
