Ronald pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
He looked at Yvonne again. The fond gaze he’d just given Stella had vanished, replaced by stern seriousness.
“From now on, you call her ‘sister-in-law.’”
Yvonne blinked.
Um…
That was going to be tough. Stella had always been her little sister—her baby sister, really—since forever. And now, suddenly, she was supposed to call her ‘sister-in-law’?
‘Sister-in-law’… that just sounded…
“Wait, can’t we just keep it separate? You marry your wife, but she’s still my sister, right?”
Seriously, imagine the kid who’s been running around behind you since preschool, calling you ‘big sis, big sis’—and now you have to call her ‘sister-in-law’?
Who could get used to that?
Yvonne’s brain was having a minor meltdown. There was no way she could just switch the title like that.
Even Stella’s lips twitched when she heard Ronald lay down the law.
Ronald shot Yvonne a look, saying nothing, but the pressure in his eyes was enough to make her swallow hard.
“Bro…” she tried, “I think she’s got a point.”
With that, Ronald flicked Stella’s cheek. “You need to get used to calling her Yvonne now. Got it?”
Stella: “…”
Yvonne!
It wasn’t just hard for Yvonne to accept this new title—Stella herself looked like she’d seen a ghost.
“This is weird. Can’t we just… keep it the old way?”
“No.” Ronald’s tone brooked no argument. He turned to Yvonne, who was still frozen in place. “Well? What are you waiting for? Let’s hear you say ‘sister-in-law.’”
Yvonne’s eyes widened in horror.
Just like that?
