The Price of a Pot
Language: en
Three years after our divorce, I ran into Ethan again on the streets of America. I was a volunteer handing out cold medicine, and he was a homeless man who had fallen below the poverty line. Ironically, back then, we divorced over a box of cold medicine. "Two pills, twice a day." I handed him the medicine, my tone as flat as if we were strangers. But Ethan's eyes reddened. "Chloe, you still hate me." I didn't look up, continuing to hand out the medicine. "This medicine costs one dollar. It's very cheap. But back then, it forced me to sell my blood." "Ethan, how could I not hate you?"
