Belle stopped walking and looked at her brother. He was smiling expectantly while waiting for her positive answer. "Neon, the cousin I mentioned who will marry Jackson was just a lie. I had to do it because those aunties will marry him off to someone."
"And why can't he get married to someone? Isn't that a good thing?"
"Jackson didn't want to get married yet. For now, you might not understand the complicated world of adults, but once you become an adult, you will know what I said this time. Jackson's marriage is a choice that must be done by him and not somebody else."
"Then, what about the cousin that you mentioned to Uncle Ian earlier?"
"I mentioned another cousin?"
"Yes. You were talking to Uncle Ian after lunch, and you told him that some of your colleagues would give me things I could use for school. Other times, our cousin would help you pay for my school fees and other school needs. Which cousin were you talking about?"
