Karan was seething with anger.

"Mom, Tanya's still young and lacks worldly experience. She'll grow out of it. Don't be mad, I'll go check on her," Hank said.

There was so much in life she hadn't done yet.

It was Hank's voice.

Tanya got up, stopped crying, wiped her eyes with some tissues, and then went to open the door, "Big bro."
