Rebecca Allen's eyes were red-rimmed as she asked, "My brother, he..."
"He said he would be here in half an hour, don't worry."
Rebecca only felt a sour taste filling her chest.
She met and fell in love with her husband in college; after graduation, her parents and brother disagreed with their marriage, but ultimately, under her husband's passionate vows, she disregarded her parents' objections and followed him to Oceanion.
Over the past two years, her brother and parents had called her countless times, urging her to come home.
She said she wanted to show them how happy she could be in Oceanion.
Her parents fell silent, but her brother had only one condition: she should not reveal her family background to her husband, to test their relationship for two years.
She was the pearl in the palm of the Allen Family, coddled and pampered by her parents, never having lifted a finger at home.
