“Do you know why we’re here?” She asked.
“Yeah, the family reunion.”
“Yeah, the family reunion,” She said family reunion with air quotes, and a snooty tone, “Baby sister, this is a ploy. The family reunion,” same air quotes, a sarcastic tone in her voice, I was scared.
“Ploy? What are we in a suspense thriller?” I used the same sarcastic tone, she was messing with me. Ploy shmoy.
“It’s not just the family; there will be a few families here that aren’t family.” Nagma began to whisper, she came in close, held my hand tighter. “This is a fix up, your fix up. Mom and Dad have found three boys worthy of marriage,” she said this again with air quotes and sarcastically. I figured this was going to happen a lot during this conversation. “You’re being arranged.”
I just stared at her, I was stunned. Dumbfounded, not one word escaped my mouth. In fact my brain went on shutdown. Did I hear her right, was it time already? Were they just going to ambush me?
