Love is the Sunshine

Meanwhile, in BH city, a storm was brewing although it was a beautiful day and the sun was shining brightly.

Something unexpectedly was coming Carla and Sean's way and none of them were ready for it.

After Sean got back from school, he walked into the entrance and threw his bag on the floor. Carla could see he wasn't himself. He seemed very sad and looked like he wanted to cry.

She walked out of the kitchen and wiped her wet hands on her jeans as she took a look at her brother and asked, "Sean? What happened at school today? Who stole your sunshine?"

Sean looked up at Carla with tears in his eyes, "Jeremy was so mean to me today. He laughed at me and told me that I was lying about what I said at the parents' meeting." Sean looked tired and leaned on the couch for support.

Carla frowned, "What lie? Why would he say such a thing? What...what's going on?" Since Carla completely forgot the speech Sean had made that day, she couldn't seem to understand why Jeremy would be so mean to her brother.

Sean remained silent for a short while and was trying to think about how to tell her.

He slowly mumbled, "Do you still remember when we had the parents' meeting? I told the whole class that you and Terrence were going to get married and that I was going to be his brother-in-law. I don't know how they found out that Terence was going to married someone else. As soon as I walked into the classroom this morning, everyone started laughing at me.

They said that I was delusional and Terence would never choose us because all we want is his money, not him."
