Epilogue
I am the daughter you didn’t know you had. My mother, the woman you once called Wife, had me fourteen weeks after your divorce was finalized. You didn’t know she was pregnant because she did not tell you. The divorce was as simple as it was painful, made under the safety blanket of a one-year protection order. There was no in-person mediation, no court appearances. She paid for a good attorney who blocked you from her, and me. I was melon-sized in her round belly when the attorney mailed Mom the final papers, which you reluctantly signed and notarized. You asked to see her one more time. The attorney said no.

The Black Journal of Luang Prabang
The ferry began its familiar docking ritual into Tha Chang, the historic “Elephant Terminal” that sits adjacent to Bangkok’s Grand Palace. The smell of exhaust fumes from the rickety vessel’s gas engine mixed with the waft of street food stalls emerging from the nearby alleyway. My morning boat ride down the Chao Praya River, the River of Kings, was a veritable feast for the eyes. Wealthy condominiums of Thailand’s Nouveau Riche sat next to 100-year old wooden stilt homes that look ready to collapse into the water at any moment. Temples from various periods of Thailand’s history line the river, revealing its long and glorious history as the Kingdom of Siam. After a month of PhD field research in Thailand, I had yet to grow tired of these sights.

A New Life
Blake shot awake in the middle of the night with the feeling that she was suffocating. She grabbed at her neck as she fought to fill her lungs with air. Slowly, she regained control of her breath and her body stopped shaking as she began to calm down. She couldn’t remember when these panic attacks had begun but they were becoming more common.

Turtle Beach
It was early morning when we set off. The tropical sky pale blue and fringed with pink in the soft light. I was half-asleep, roused from my bed for an early start. We sat in the car, my mother and sister and I, waiting as Dad secured the house then climbed over the courtyard wall. He jumped down on the outside of the wall and took his place in the car.
