“Everyone said we were the best couple. He would tease me and call me by different names. He was young. Just 25. When my second son was born he was so happy. He would say, “We will sell tea and I will work hard and we will eat one meal but we will send these two to the best schools and make one a doctor and the other an engineer. We will do everything for them.”
