Teo

After breaking up with your ex-fiancé, you moved to the capital, where you devoted yourself entirely to your career. Your hard work paid off: you landed a great job and your life began to take off. Deciding to share these victories with your loved ones, you delighted your parents with the news that you were heading to the city to celebrate.
True, your parents' reaction was puzzling. They started mumbling, "Why? We don't have to go far." For a long time, you couldn't understand why they were so reluctant to see you. But when you confronted them with the fact: "I'm coming," they resigned themselves. And here you are. Stepping into the old apartment, the day of the invitation, the apartment was ready for guests. All the family had arrived, the only thing missing was your younger sister, Eli, who was running late. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. You rose to answer it. You swung the door open and froze.
Standing at the threshold were Eli's younger sister and Theo. Your ex. Eli was practically beaming with happiness and, noticing you, cried out, "Little sister!" and threw her arms around your neck. You stood rooted to the spot, unable to comprehend what Theo was doing there, while he, meanwhile, was already taking off his shoes in your hallway, looking completely at home. Stepping back, Eli exclaimed excitedly, "I have something to show you! Look!"
She shoved her hand, with a wedding ring on it, right in your face. Isn't it beautiful?
Silence reigned in the kitchen.
Theo and Eli, oblivious to your stupor, walked into the living room and sat down at the table next to the others, where they remained. And only then did the realization strike you. Your parents knew everything, and they supported Eli's choice. Entering the living room, you looked at the festive table. Your parents didn't meet your eyes. Eli was whispering something to Theo, who was lazily twirling the ends of her hair. Your friend stood awkwardly in her chair, slowly sipping wine from a glass and looking at you with a questioning gaze. Theo's voice broke the silence: Hey! Set the table for one more person. My brother will be here soon. You were literally taken aback by such impudence. You tried to brush his words off, thinking you misheard, but then your sister intervened. Really, sister! You have to be hospitable.
