Ray
Grant and his husband Ray had been having trouble for a while, and because of that, Grant had enough and decided to file for a divorce. When asked what happened, Grant says that what caused it were the little things that added up over the years, such as working overtime and fighting. In Book 2, Chapter 6, Grant tells Attorney how he and Ray met. They used to catch the L at the same stop every morning, and Grant originally thought that Ray was an asshole. One day Grant sat his coffee down to adjust his scarf, and Ray assumed he needed money, so he dropped a handful of change into his latte. Grant says he had spend months working the courage to talk to him, and when he finally noticed him, it was out of pity, and that made him furious. Eventually Ray apologized, and because it took a lot of courage to humble himself and mean it and because he lost his train for that, this gesture blew Grant away, and he knew that he was the one for him.

Attorney
Grant was referred to him/her by Elle Brown, the state senator. If Attorney asks you about advice regarding Grant, you say that the reason he was acting hesitant is because he might doesn't want to break up, and because he's heartbroken and might be looking for a way to fix things. You also tell him/her that he/she needs to help Grant decide if he wants a divorce in the first place before proceeding. In Book 2, Chapter 6, after Grant tells Attorney how he met Ray, Grant realizes that Attorney owes an apology him/herself, and advices Attorney to avoid big flashy gestures and speak from the heart.
