Chapter 40 The Truth Behind The Masks

• After enjoying a delicious meal and spending some time together, I decide to call my in-laws. Although we had talked on the day of the welcome, I still felt I owed them an explanation. Perhaps my sensitivity pushed me to seek their comfort and hear their words of support.
• I pick up the phone with a bit of nervousness, hoping the call will be well received. I dial Sophia’s number, each ring feeling eternal until she finally answers with her warm and familiar voice.
• After greeting her affectionately, I honestly explain my reasons for calling. I share how I feel and how important it is for me to have her family’s approval.
