COULD THIS BE LOVE?
Y ou deceived me, Patrick ! You're nothing but a pitiful liar, and right now, I despise you with every ounce of strength I can muster,
Jocelyn seethed into her phone after her conversation with Patrick, the man she'd encountered on the boat. From the outset of their relationship, which Jocelyn could only describe as a fleeting vacation romance, it had all appeared as a vivid journey of emotional daydreams that somehow transformed into a mystifying reality. Jocelyn was vulnerable, and Patrick found her in that desolate state—then everything changed.

A week later, Mark's remains were brought home for his final rest in the cemetery. Life now seemed to be woven with fleeting threads of joy, and she learned to accept it.
Weeks evolved into months, and she channeled her energy into her work—a real estate investor. Financially, she was not in dire straits, which made life a bit more manageable. Yet, despite the remnants of goodness, a lingering sense of emptiness and discontent weighed on her.
One morning, she roused herself from slumber, following her routine: a run through the streets, a few squats, and a visit to her favorite restaurant for a cup of coffee and a sandwich. Mark used to fetch these for her, serving them to her in bed. Oh, how she missed him. As she jogged along, passersby glanced, perhaps wondering why a woman
