Melinda's parents were worried that she wouldn't be able to cough up with the money due to the pressure. So, Melinda's mom started trying to guilt-trip her.
"Melinda, we didn't mean it that way. We all know you've busted your hump for this family. Your brother finally got himself a girlfriend, and her parents have steady jobs. It’s an improvement for our family. We can't let him feeling embarrassed." Melinda's mom sobbed, "Once your brother settles down, you'll have someone to lean on. We're thinking about you too."
Melinda wiped away tears, her head held high, trying to hold back her emotions. She didn't say anything. Her dad came back on the line, saying, "You've got three days to come up with a hundred grand. If your brother's wedding falls through, don't bother coming home."
Melinda couldn't take it anymore and hung up the phone. She was the black sheep of the family, the one who made her parents and brother feel embarrassed. Her sacrifices had turned into a joke.
Meanwhile, Maria and Jay exchanged glances. Jay asked, "Did she hung up?"
Maria said, "Yep, she did."
"She's on her own now." Jay said angrily, "Call her back and tell her to get the money ASAP."
"You were too harsh, Jay. No wonder Melinda's upset." Maria remarked, "I'll go and comfort her in a bit."
Just then, Melinda's brother returned from outside and asked, "Mom, dad, is the wedding gift money ready? Lily's family is rushing us."
Seeing her son return, Maria smiled and said, "Hold your horses. I've called your sister; she'll gather the money soon. Are you hungry? I can make something to eat."
"I won't be eating at home; I have a dinner date with Lily. I came back just to let you guys know to get the wedding gift money sorted. Lily's parents are giving us a BMW as a wedding present. It'll be great for my career too." Melinda’s brother said.
"Really? Lily's family is so generous. Don't worry, we'll get the wedding gift money sorted." Maria was delighted, "Now off you go, don't keep Lily waiting. You need to treat her well. Don't upset her."
"She's a real diva. If she wasn't the only child and her family wasn't giving us a BMW, I wouldn't even look twice at her. Her parents have spoiled her." Melinda’s brother said.
