I see these traits in you.

My heart warmed.

I smiled and continued to read.

I must leave Glory this morning, but I desperately wanted to impart some words of wisdom I have gathered over the years.

Still reading, I walked over to the bed and sat down.

Love is a beautiful journey that sometimes starts in the most unexpected of places and situations.

I ask that you consider an age-old proverb that says, “Love is not about possession, it’s all about appreciation.”

This sentiment captures the essence of what you must remember as you navigate your feelings for Lei.

I tensed.

Lei has just lost Chanel, a person dear to his heart, and this is a time of immense grief for him. Please continue to be there for him.

You should not seek to replace Chanel in his heart, but instead you must create a space of your own.

My stomach knotted.

My second piece of advice is to be patient. Mourning is a process that takes time and is different for everyone. Please continue to appreciate my nephew for who he is and understand his current emotional state.

I stopped reading, not sure if I should continue. While I was glad for the advice. . .I wasn’t sure if this truly pointed to our situation.

Lei and I were simply two strangers that were now helping each other mourn.

While I found him sexy as fuck, that was all it was. Granted, we would probably do a little something nasty here or there during these seven days, but once done, I would go my way and he would go his way.

I swallowed and returned to the letter.

Lastly, Monique, always stay true to yourself. Do not change who you are to make someone else fall in love with you.

True love will recognize and appreciate you for your genuine self.

In your gestures of comfort and support, Lei will start seeing you, Monique, for the incredible woman that you are. Let him grow to appreciate you on his own terms, and in his own time.

That is the surest foundation for a love that can endure.

Please take good care of yourself and remember to be patient with both Lei and you.

Trust in the journey and the wisdom of your heart.

With all my love,

Aunt Suzi

I shivered yet couldn’t explain why. Perhaps, I wasn’t ready to think of anything too seriously right now. I had just lost my father and was still grieving my mother. Additionally, I had my sisters to think about.

Thanks, Aunt Suzi, but. . .Lei and I. . .we’re just. . .friends.

I carefully folded the letter back into the envelope alone with the dried plum blossom.

I placed the envelope on the bed and my thoughts returned to Lei.

Sure. . .I couldn’t deny the attraction between us, but I didn’t want to complicate things any further.

I had already been through enough heartache in life, and I didn’t want to risk getting hurt again.

Just relax. Clear your head and get to this freaking Mountain.

I looked at the outfit that Aunt Suzi had picked out for me and couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement.

Maybe this trip to Mount Utopia was exactly what I needed to take my mind off things and just enjoy life for a little while.

Minutes passed, I took a shower, quickly changed into the outfit, slipped on the hiking boots, and headed out of the suite, dragging a suitcase full of the clothes Duck had bought.

Wow. With everyone buying me stuff, I will need four to five closets.

Guards stood outside of my door. Once they saw me struggling with the suitcase, they grabbed that one from me and went into the suite to see if there was anything else I needed.

That’s right. I have help. I keep forgetting.

I grinned.

I’m really going to miss having people protecting and serving me.

Another guard followed me down the hallway, stopped us at the elevator, and pressed the button to call it up.

For some reason, I thought about Jo’s last comment.

“I mean. . .if you can hoe to get a house, Moni, I’m not mad or anything. I just want you to be careful.”

I chuckled.

The guard looked at me and smiled reassuringly.

I nodded and cleared my throat.

Crazy ass sisters. Soon, I will be back with them.

The elevator arrived, and the doors opened.

I stepped on it with the one guard.

The elevator doors closed.

Seven days without them. It’s been many years since I was away from them for this long.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm my nerves.

Will TT be okay while I’m gone?

As the elevator descended, the metallic hum seemed to echo my anxiety.

Yes. She will be fine. It’s just a little. . .break. Plus, Banks is more protective of her than me. Nothing will happen to her.

My chest tightened as I thought of my cousin and the dreaded task that awaited me—calling him.

Jo’s voice hit my mind.

“Last night, Banks left with Marcy and some others to go to Glory to find you. They haven’t returned yet.”
