My twisted relationship with Felix started when I was still in Mom’s womb.

Aunt Mel and Mom were best friends, and coincidentally, they both lived right opposite each other on the same level in the same apartment block. Thus, our families were close to each other.

When Mom was pregnant with me, Felix was still a toddler who waddled around in diapers.

Mom had replied, “Well, that’s not up to me. We’ll let her decide in the future.”

“Felix, come here! Would you like the girl in Aunt Harper’s belly to be your wife?” Aunt Mel asked.

Felix had laid in Mom’s lap, giggling as he sucked on his thumb and mumbled the word “wife” repeatedly. He had amused Mom and Aunt Melinda so much that they decided to go ahead with the unofficial betrothal.
