Lily, Rachel's aunt, walked into the room with a confident stride, her high heels clicking on the floor. She was a bit sassy and classy, with a sparkle in her eye that commanded attention.
"Hey, sweetie!" she said, giving Rachel a warm hug. "I'm back from London and I've got presents!"
Rachel's eyes lit up as Lily handed her a beautifully wrapped gift. "Thank you, Aunt Lily! You're the best!"
Alexia, Bryan's wife, watched the exchange with a mixture of warmth and wariness. She knew that Lily was a force to be reckoned with, and she wasn't sure what to make of her sudden arrival.
Just then, the door opened and Bryan walked in, looking tired and stressed. His eyes widened in shock as he took in the scene before him.
"Lily? What are you doing here?" he asked, his voice laced with surprise.
Lily turned to him, a sly smile spreading across her face. "Hey, brother dear. I didn't think I needed to announce my arrival. I'm family, after all."
