Five years into our secret relationship, I finally caved and decided to test Emilio. “My mom's been asking lately when she can finally meet my boyfriend…” Leaning against the headboard, he smiled. “Vienna, you know what I've always loved about you? You never lose your head.” “I told you from the start—if you're not happy, we can end this. Anytime.” His thumb brushed the tear off my cheek. Gentle. Clinical. He knew exactly what he was doing. The moment he said "end," I'd always shut up. I'd stop pushing. I'd let it go. What I didn’t tell him was that this time was different. I'd made a bet with someone. A bet on whether he'd actually marry me. If I lost, I would leave him for good. … On the third day of my business trip to Paris, my mother called. I didn’t bother reminding her what an international call cost. She started with small talk about things back home, but eventually, she circled back to the same old topic. “Sweetheart, I’m not trying to pressure you. I just don’t understand.” “You always say this man is wonderful, but you’ll be thirty in two years.” “If he’s really serious about you, how can there be no talk of the future?” I’d always thought of Paris as a romantic city, a place for beautiful words.

Emilio’s mother was a New York legend. Beautiful, a brilliant hostess—the kind of woman who commanded a room just by entering it. I’d seen his father in finance magazines—handsome, composed, perfectly photogenic. Emilio had inherited the best of both of them. His features were sharp, his skin nearly flawless. It was easy to get lost looking at him. I laced my fingers through his, trying to keep my voice light. “My mom was asking when I’m going to bring you home to meet her.” “She has a friend who wants to introduce me to her son.” “She thinks I’m lying—that I invented a boyfriend just to get out of the blind dates she keeps trying to set me up on.” “I told her I’ve just been too busy with work to bring you home.” I’d planned to say more, to make more excuses for him, but I only managed one more sentence. “After Christmas, come back with me for a visit, and we—” “Vienna.” Emilio cut me off, a smile playing on his lips. “There’s no need for all this. You know that doesn’t work on me.” He leaned back, his tone as casual as if we were discussing the weather. “Like I’ve said, if you’re unhappy, we can end things at any time.” I stared at him, and strangely, I felt almost nothing. The first time I’d heard those words, my reaction hadn’t been ......
