It was our routine \u2014 until one day, she suddenly stopped.At first, she said she was just \u201ctoo tired,\u201d but soon she avoided my place altogether. When I pressed her, she looked exhausted and finally confessed the truth:<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\"><\/div>\n<p>One morning, my mom\u2019s \u201cfriend\u201d from the basement told her she was being rude, that her shower was waking him up \u2014 and then he suggested she start \u201cpaying rent\u201d if she was going to keep coming. Instead of defending her, my mom sided with him and told Rachel to shower somewhere else. I was furious. Rachel hadn\u2019t been avoiding me \u2014 she\u2019d been pushed out of the place I called home. And then came the gut punch: that \u201cfriend\u201d was more than a tenant.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1505412\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>My mom admitted she was secretly involved with him, even while my dad was working away in Alaska. I packed my bags that night. \u201cIf you\u2019re not welcome here, neither am I,\u201d I told Rachel. Her grandmother took us in until we found our own apartment.Six months later, I proposed to her in our tiny kitchen. She laughed and cried when she said yes. We married in a small garden ceremony, with my dad flying in to walk me down the aisle.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-5\"><\/div>\n<p>My mom wasn\u2019t there. She begged in a long email the night before, but I didn\u2019t respond.
