This is “Morn Love.” Today, on the show, we have a story about how, sometim, a fay is held together by untths. The aren’t necsarily outright li, but they’re evasns. They’re avoidanc. They’re the silenc that ver somethg up.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">The say is wrten by David Khalaf. In his fay, the untth was about how David is gay and very happily married to a man. David’s whole fay kept this a secret om his grandmother. His say is lled, “The Hoe Where My Hband Don’t Exist.” And begs wh David returng to his hometown to go to a fay gatherg.</p></dd><dt class="css-xx7kwh">david khalaf</dt><dd class="css-4gvq6l"><p class="css-8hvvyd">I rang the doorbell of my grandmother’s hoe, and then I remembered to pull off my weddg rg. And I slipped to my pocket, and I was someone else, an actor playg a fictnal versn of me.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">When I got married, my fay ma a cisn for my grandmother. They agreed that everyone uld know about my hband, except her. They feared she would disown me, exriate my father, blame my mother. My grandmother was om the old untry, and she lived by old l.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">My grandmother sat the same spot on the uch where I’ve always known her to be, but now she was breathg through a tube nnected to an oxygen tank. David, she lled out, raisg her arms. I’m dyg, she said. My grandmother has been dyg for 20 years. On that day, however, her shnken body clared that tth a way her voice never uld. I love you, Nana, I said. Cancer, she said. I love you, I replied.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">Our relatnship had been built on s of two-mute nversatns about her most recent ach and pas. I knew ltle about her past, other than that she’d had a tumultuo life Palte, beg married off to an olr man and beg a mother while her teens. By the time polil turmoil and fay fightg forced her to flee to the Uned Stat, she’d given birth to three more children and lost her hband.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">Why did you move up there, she asked. Why leave your fay? I like Portland, I said. I uldn’t tell her about my hband and me watchg the ra om our porch, or our brisk hik to see sweepg views of the Columbia River. She’d never see the weddg photos of unr the misty St. John’s Bridge. Are you livg wh anyone? The qutn wasn’t pryg, merely cur. What n I tell her? Y, Nana, I’m livg wh the love of my life.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">I looked at my nt, the only other person listeng . Am I livg wh anyone, I asked. I didn’t know if there had been efforts to ordate this fictn. Had anyone bothered to give me a backstory? A roommate, I said. The word reverberated like an ntatn, as if I had summoned the ghosts of every gay person who had ever been forced to e this pretense, a word to protect and erase.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">For s, I hid my feelgs om the world and suffoted them to nothgns. From the moment I accepted my hband’s proposal of marriage, I promised I would never forsake him. Our engagement was not only a promise to him, was a promise to myself that I would never hi aga. But here I was. Are you happy, my grandmother asked. I love you, Nana, I said.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">But now I was speakg to someone else, to the man who did not exist her hoe.</p><p class="css-8hvvyd">That afternoon, my mother had stayed home wh my hband to help him feel ls alone, to help all pretend this was not a chara. They were watchg a movie or makg lunch or chattg about his fay and the reasons for his trangement om them. I reached to my pocket and felt the smooth ntours of my weddg rg. In the darkns of my pocket, my fgers slipped through .
