“Ethan got married…” Jacky said softly, her voice trailing off as if she were still processing the news herself.

Jeff stared at his parents in disbelief. To confirm he wasn’t dreaming, he pinched himself and then gasped dramatically. “Mom, wait. Are you saying Ethan got married? Uncle Authur and Aunt Beatrice’s son?”

Jacky nodded, her expression calm. “Yes, that’s right.”

For a moment, Jeff was speechless, but then he burst out laughing, clutching his stomach as he bent over. “Oh my God! This… this is priceless! I can’t believe it. Ethan is actually married. This is the best day of my life!” His laughter grew so intense that tears started rolling down his cheeks, leaving his parents watching him with puzzled expressions.

“Jacky, what’s wrong with him? Why is he laughing like that?” Charlse asked his wife, clearly baffled by his son’s reaction.

Jacky shrugged helplessly. “I have no idea.” Turning to Jeff, she gently asked, “Jeff, dear, why are you laughing so much? What’s so funny?”

Trying to catch his breath, Jeff wiped the tears from his eyes. “I just can’t believe it. Ethan got married. What a relief!” He paused, shaking his head with mock pity. “But, honestly, I do feel bad…”

His father, mistaking his sentiment, sighed and nodded. “I understand, son. It was decided long ago that your twin sister would marry Ethan, but I suppose fate had other plans. It’s disappointing, I know. He would have been such a perfect match for our little princess…”

“Perfect match? Hah!” Jeff scoffed, rolling his eyes. “Dad, that would’ve been the ultimate disaster. Seriously, what’s so great about that guy?”
