August 29th: Family Reunion I was kind of forced to be awake so we could say goodbye to Hiroyuki, because he has some family urgencies. I guess I can't miss this. As far as I know, Hiroyuki lives in the big-city, he's been keeping in touch with Torahiko as possible he could. He's been handling this very well. I got myself dressed and head to the bus stop. When I got there, I felt relief that the broken bus isn't there anymore. Everyone I'm aquatinted to gathered the bus stop for their goodbyes. Hiroyuki wished for the best of us, plus me and Kouya. I said to Hiroyuki: "I'll never gonna forget you, Hiroyuki. You and Torahiko saved my life. And I really wished my sister could meet you in person. If this never happened…" But Hiroyuki cut it out and told me not to mind about it and he's happy that nothing turned to the worst. Torahiko is never been so happy to be with the one he love. They kissed one last time and Hiroyuki stepped on board the bus. We waved as the bus left without problems. Back at my own room in the inn. As the days of staying in Minasato are coming to an end, I'm cleaning up a little, mostly my clothes from the drawers and closet. Everything goes back into my large, heavy-duty suitcase. Looking around the room it still haven't changed much. Not so messy. I pick up the cable phone and dialed the numbers to call Sylvia. Since they're now in Kazenari, I can reach their cellphones. "Hello? You're calling Sylvia." "Good morning, Sylvia." "Morning, Kelly. How's it going?" "Packing everything up. Are you guys coming over? 'Cause I was kinda hoping you guys can stay maybe a little longer until the guest party tomorrow at the inn I'm staying." "That sounds nice, but…" I hear some voices… "Hold on, I'm giving the phone to Dad. He wants to talk to you." She said. After a short silence, a voice appears. "Kelly? How you doing?" That voice, like an adult-version of me. "Morning, Dad. What a surprise! I've never thought you two will come over. So, you and Mom already know what happened to me?" "Yes, your Aunt told me everything. I'm a little upset what Henry did to you. I'm sure he'll give you an apology." "Um, so, you guys are now in Kazenari?" "You been there before?" "You think I'm actually stranded in here? Oh, come on, Dad. I can go to some places around too." "Yup, that's my son alright. I uh... Listen, Kelly, uh, we're coming to see you and so as your Uncle 'cause he got something to say to you." "Really? Huh, speaking of Henry, that statue of his is now finished. I don't know how he's gonna bring that thing to the headquarters." "That's what we're going to talk about." Dad said. "When we get there, we're gonna have a talk, okay? It's not serious, because you have done nothing wrong." "Uh… Okay?" Just as he say that, my eyes are covered by someone's hands, kind of furry. I can't see which I giggle. "What's so funny?" "Nothing, nothing? Can't wait to see you all." "We're just about to leave now. Bye, Kelly." He said and hangs up. Now I can focus whose the beastmen covering my sight. "Who are you calling?" He said. Oh you… "My family, Kouya." I said and he releases his hands from my head and I face him. "You know, this is the first time I hear your native language. What's your accent?" He grinned. "Uh, modern western?" I replied. "So you speak English?" "Sure, but only when reading." He answers, "But when I try to speak…" "You unfortunately speak with an 'engrish' accent?" I laughably interrupted him. "I can't help it! But that's what all Asians deals with." He laughs. "So back at your topic, your family are coming over?" "Yes, I'm so nervous and anxious to see them." "Hey, come on. Just remember: be yourself." "Yeah, I know, but… this is about my brother Konnor we're talking about." I pointed out. "He's one of your family's fresh and blood. I'm sure you'll feel better after telling them instead of me like last time." Kouya stated. "Yeah, I did felt a little better after telling you, but it felt depressing afterwards." "Well, I was there for you, right?" He said as he rubs my back. "Do you want me keep you company when they come?" "Uh, no, not yet. It's too soon to tell them." Wouldn't it be weird when they come and ask me what I did while staying in the village, and tell my romantic relationship with a fellow villager who took care of me and his friends after the accident? "Let's keep it hush-hush, okay, Kouya?" "Alright, I'll go back to my house while you're busy with your parents. After everything is settled, I'll go back to see you, how about it?" "Good." "See you, Kelly. Good luck." Kouya said as he leaves the inn. … It's been two hours after the call and Kouya leaving me by myself in the room. The gifts I bought the other day are under the bed. All of my belongings are now inside my large suitcase. I can't do anything but wait and stay in here. The room is nearly empty. I couldn't get a call from them, they're on their way, but when? Thinking how it will turn out when I confess to them about Konnor's current status. Will they… No, that's ridiculous. There's no way they could hate you after keeping it for one year after I found him in San Francisco. They are my parents, they love me no matter what, even if I'm homosexual. The door is knocking, I guess the steward showed them to my room. My heart is beating in high speed. "Come in!" I shouted. The door opens… Oh, false alarm, is Toshi. "Toshi-san! It's been awhile." "I was absent yesterday." The husky steward said. He's all calmed and strict. That's so him. He got his mojo back, I guess. "Why? Did you missed me?" His expression didn't changed as he said that. "Uh, kinda, heheh." Nothing going on, okay!? "So, what are you here?" I asked. "There's a full house down stairs at the lobby and they all want to see you." He smiles. "They're here!?" I cried by surprise. Toshi nods. I run through the hallway and rush down into the staircase to the first floor. After 30 days in this rural town, I finally get to see them! As I reach the staircase, I stop there and slowly walk down the steps. Just saving for the moment. Slowly and casually walk down the steps. I'm getting a feeling of suspense here. I'm not sure how they will react. The only way to find out is to find out, right? I'm right halfway there. Oh, gosh… Not even finished the last step to meet up on the first floor, a group of seven caught my presence. A young seventeen-year-old girl with white shorts and light-green shirt that matches her green eyes, covered by her stylish sunglasses. Her hair is flatten, but long ironed black-hair. An older girl with a dyed red-hair, done with a pony tail. Wearing summerly clothes for the outdoors. An older dude with short dark-brown hair, wearing just gray every part of his body: shoes, pants, shirt, and cap hat. An older woman with blonde-hair who looks if she's ready for gardening: violet blouse, skinny jeans and brown shoes. A grown man with well-combed black hair and wearing smartly casual clothes who somehow looks ashamed. And another grown woman with dark-brown hair and wearing similarly like my Aunt. And finally… Oh, gosh is like looking myself in front of a mirror but showing how I will look as an adult; well-combed black-hair as a professional CEO, an impressive five o'clock shadow on his jaw, light-blue polo shirt, and khaki brown pants. There is no doubt who are these people; My sister Sylvia, Cousin Ashley, Cousin Ashton, Aunt Samantha, Uncle Henry, Mom (Julie) and Dad (Ronald). So many emotions… I hear high-pitch gasp, "Kendrick!" Was Sylvia who firstly reacted, she tightly embraces me all the love she could give at long last. "Elijah!" Ashley and Ashton cried in unison and hugs along. "Lincoln!" Then came Samantha "Lloyd!" Mom next. "Yestin!" Dad next "…Kelly." Henry ran out, but he joined along. This is what I call a family hug, and I can't help myself but cry about it. "Oh, my goodness! I've missed all of you!" I cried. They all separated from me and they take a look on me. "Kelly, is that a scar?" Mom began, "And what happened to your wrist?" "Julie, didn't I told you everything?" Samantha reminded her. "I'm fine, Mom. Really." I assured her, all I can do is tear up. As always, Mom cleans my tears with her hanky. Even though, I can't do it myself. I gathered everyone to my room. It wasn't made for eight people. Just two. But still, the room is spacious. Despite being western-style, it still looks decorated in Japanese-style and the standards. Toshi told me these were newly added rooms for people who preferred these types of hospitality. I actually keep forgetting I'm staying in a traditional Japanese inn, known as a ryokan. The majority of the rooms are traditional. Sylvia once told me she preferred western, she just not used to it. "Kelly, how much this room cost you?" Mom asked. "Don't mind about it, we're gonna paid it soon." Dad glared at Henry. "Dad, you gave me money for emergencies before we left for Japan." I said. "I'm staying here as shelter." "Very well." "Kelly, since you been staying here for a month, you didn't give the steward a hard time, did you?" Ashton jokingly said. "No, that's really rude. Besides, that steward was friendly with me since day one." "Hey, Kelly, where's the tiger guy and the Japanese guy who saved you?" Sylvia asked. "Uh, I forgot their names." So many questions. "Saved you?" Mom and Dad questioned. "They didn't tell you?" I asked, they gestured their heads for a no. "Right after the crash, I was unconscious. Torahiko and Hiroyuki, that's their names, they got me out and taken me to the clinic. I've woken up the following day." "You thanked them, right?" Dad said. "Yeah, in return, I went to their get-together party the same day. I met some new friends there, and they've all been so caring and supportive." "That was nice of them." Said Mom. "Can we meet them?" Sylvia said. "Sadly, Hiroyuki already left for home. He doesn't live here, he just visits." I explained. "What about the tiger-dude?" "He's around, but I don't know where he is now." Again, I explained. "Maybe later, when the time comes." "Aww…" "Sylvia, I know you have a thing for beastmens, but don't take it very emotional." Ashley said. Sylvia annoyingly blushed. "Says the girl who dated 15 guys with broken hearts." Sylvia backfires. "Easy…" She uncomfortably said. That was right into her teen-hood. "Isn't that a little exaggerated?" Mom said. "No, Julie, she's just really terrible with men." Samantha replied sternly. Ashley groaned of embarrassment. "Now then, I think it's time for an apology for Kelly." Dad announced. "Hmm?" Oh, yeah. That talk he said earlier. Henry looks a little uneasy. "Hendrix? Do you have something to say to your nephew?" Dad said. Uncle Henry stands up from floor, Mom and Samantha are sitting the only two chairs in this room, the others are either sitting on the floor or standing whilst Sylvia and me on the edge of the bed. Henry walks a little closer to me, he stands there and wait for what he's going to say, after all he did to me I'm not even mad than I used to be. But still, if he's going to apologize to me? I'm going to make peace with him. But before he could say anything, "Hey, Henry, about the statue. Just so you know, is now finished. The Midoriya company's staff are waiting for instructions, they all depending on me." I said. "Yeah, about that…" Henry nervously responded. My eyes widen, "Don't tell me you cancelled it, did you!?" "No, no, no, is not that! Is still going!" He shakily said. "Then what is it?" I calmly said. "You know that I been on this village before, right? Because Samantha and your cousins were stuck after their car broke down." "Uh-huh…" "Well…" Uncle Henry explains the 'real' reason why I'm in this rural town. The moment when I told him (on the phone) 'Minasato' he knew that this would be his opportunity, because he met this 'certain dragon-man' at the bar and his dedication as a carpenter. He kept that little flyer for a long time until that Vice President told him to get a wooden statue for the pharmaceutical's anniversary. That was the day I disappeared. Stressed and frustrated by his job, he managed it to keep it all cool by keeping me in this village for the whole month as planned. And keeping it in silence from Mom and Dad since they were in Dubai at that time. It was lie disguised as a sincere excused from Henry. "…and so that's why I decided to leave you there, so I can settle with the statue project, and asking you to take care of it. It did work… But… not my expectations…" Henry finished, trembling, but with confident voice. "So, Kelly? I am so sorry for what I did to you. I was selfish because of my job." He turned to Dad, "And I'm sorry, Ronald. For lying to you after all these years as a Vise President. I was, actually. But I felt embarrassed and ashamed to how to explain it." Dad didn't said a thing, but Henry turns back to me. "So, Kelly? Would you forgive your uncle?" "…" I'm shocked… So, is that it…? My face was unbelievable that he lied to me for the whole month of August. I… I… What's this I'm feeling? Betrayal from a relative? Was there an alternative option to not to go through it? So it was no coincidence that there was no choice but to leave me here? This wasn't his honest excuse? If he wasn't caught, will he keep it shut? But thanks to Dad it's all different now. It all made sense now… But there is something that bothers me… I can't explain this anymore… "Kelly?" Henry asked. I'm staring him with disbelief. "Kelly?" Sylvia said. "You're okay?" "…" Still staring at him. My face turns to a cold glare. "…get out…" "What?" Henry confusedly said. "Get the fuck out…" I stand up. "ALL OF YOU! GET OUT!" "Kelly, calm down." Dad said "SHUT UP! ALL OF YOU, GET OUT!" I ordered. "DON'T MAKE ME SAY IT AGAIN! NOW!" My tears are jerking off. "Kelly, please, you're overreacting." Dad stand by and holds my shoulders. "Do what he says." Henry agreed. "Please, I've gave him too much damage." "Fine, you can go. Everyone else leave, I'll stay with Kelly." Dad ordered. All six of them left the room. Door closed. My aggressive reaction couldn't scare Dad away. But, now realizing what I did… I'm now all alone with Dad. Crying was all I can do. "There, there, Kelly. Calm down." He comforts me. No matter if I was grown 18 year old teenager. "He really used me, Dad!" I wailed. "He really used me." I sobbed. "He came here to apologize you." "I thought that was after I got stranded here." I explained. "He sent me that message like ten days after my accident." I continue sobbing. Dad came closer and embraces me, he's so much taller that my head rest at his lower chest, closer to his heart. "I can't believe he did that to me." I muffled. "I knew I shouldn't sent you and Sylvia to stay with Henry. I shouldn't have done it." "You and I didn't know this was going to happen, Dad." I shuddered. "Shit happens." I stated. "I'm sorry, son." He said as he rubs by back. "Did you have a hard time staying here?" He asked. "No…" I said as I part from him, "not at all." I wiped my tears from Mom's hanky. "See?" He smiles, "Sylvia told me about your recovery after your whole ordeal with your ex-boyfriend who-should-not-be-named. Did you really move on?" I look up to him and nodded. "Heh, you're one strong kid, Kelly. But full of sensible feelings that your heart desires to show." "That's true…" I calmed myself. But there's more I want to talk, now is a good time as father and son. "Um, Dad?" "Yes?" "While staying here, I've been thinking. Thanks to some advice from someone. I should come clean." "What is it?" "It's about Konnor…" "Konnor?" "Mm-hmm," a strange feeling of nostalgia is coming. It felt like if I was coming out for the first time to my parents when I was 15. But I'm explaining something that requires a lot of measure of words to use correctly to understand. I told Dad about my encounter with Konnor in San Francisco from that time we went on a trip to San Diego. He's in the protection program for endangered eyewitness. Every bit of moment I explained, all that weight in me was lighting up. Dad listed carefully. "Konnor told me that I should keep it as a secret from all of you, because he feared that the criminals could be after us before we know it. He didn't want to jeopardize us. He didn't mean to. He was just trying to protect us." I talked. "I'm so sorry, Dad! The pain was so strong that I was dying inside!" I started to cry again. "You really misses him the most!" "Kelly…" "I'm telling you this because you were so upset at Henry. You came all this way just to see me, right? Because you were afraid of losing me." I said, all frowned. "Dad? Are you okay?" I see a grown man starting to tear up. "Konnor's fine?" He faintly said. "Yes, Dad. He's fine and well!" I cried. But suddenly Dad abruptly hugs me quickly. Dad gasps for air and sighed in relief. He inhales, "I've almost lost hope…" Dad's voice is weakening. "Kelly, I… For all those years… I thought that I failed as a father because of Konnor, I didn't know what I did wrong. I was really afraid of losing you, and I can't let anything happen to you! I love you, Kelly! I love you!" "I love you too, Dad!" Replied him. We cried together to let go all of that stress and depression we were caring for years, it was time to end it. We both calmed down and breathed back to our breath. And wipe our faces. "So, Kelly." Dad began. "Yeah?" "After all what had happened you, was there a bright side of this situation? Because, Sylvia told me you were having fun here." "Yeah, like I told you, I've met some friends while staying here." I said. "So, I know I'm asking too much, but, who gave you advice to give you courage to talk about this?" Dad asked. "Oh! Uh, I met this guy who…" I blushed, Dad saw it. "Well, I met this guy who slowly I started to connect with." I'm feeling like he caught me right in there, but I kept talking. "He made me feel so welcome than being stranded in here." My heart is rising as I talk. Dad was listening, but then, we heard the door knocking. Dad went up for it. He opens the door. I heard him speaking Japanese, "Can I help you?" Believe it or not, I taught Dad to speak Japanese since most of his businesses routines are often in Japan. "Oh, I'm sorry, is Kelly here?" That voice… "Kouya?" Walked to the door. "Kelly, you know him?" Dad asked in English. "Yes, he's… the guy I was talking about. This is Kouya Aotsuki." I swished to Japanese, "Kouya, this is my Dad, Ronald Sullivan." Kouya realized what I said, I really want to talk in private, but Dad is fluent about it, he could hear it whatsoever. Dad looks at the husky. "Well, is nice to meet you, Kouya-kun." Dad said in Japanese, handing over his hand. "Nice to meet you, Sullivan-san." They both hand shake. He must be surprised that he also speaks Japanese. "Kouya, what are you doing here?" I asked. "I thought you were waiting at your house." "I did, but Toshi called me, and asked me to come here to check on you. He heard the commotion and saw your family waiting down stairs. So I rushed here and… wanted to make sure that you were okay." "Don't worry about it, young man. Everything's fine, now." Dad assured him. "Kelly, can I talk to him in private?" "Huh?" "Just for bit." Dad said. "Wait inside." I obeyed him and close the door, leaving the two outside in the corridor. Temptations are always handy for me, so I listen carefully their conversation. "Is everything alright, Sullivan-san?" I heard Kouya's voice. "Yes, everything's alright, Kouya-kun." Dad's voice. "Listen, I know we just met and all, but I feel like I must thank you for all what you did." "Pardon me?" "Did you… Did you help my son's troubles while staying here? Were you the one who gave Kelly some advices to talk about his brother?" "Y-yes, I did…" "Don't be nervous… I'm just asking." He said. "Well, I guess I can't be in doubt that Kelly has opened up to you. I just want to you to know, if you didn't know, yet, ever since Kelly came out of the closet, he had been through a lot in the past…" "Yeah, I know, Kelly told me his experiences. He opened up very well." Kouya said. "So, he did moved on? Well… I've been so worried about him that I couldn't bare his pains anymore, I really wished I could be there for him when he really need it. But all I did was sending him away to solve his problems alone without someone's assistance." I sensed that he could be frowned and saddened of regret. "Don't worry about it, Sullivan-san, you're gonna see a new Kelly. He's gonna be a better person than he used to be, you'll see." "You're one confident man, aren't you, Kouya-kun? Thank you very much for taking care of my son, he really needed a hand. I really appreciate it. I guess all he needed was love all along." "Don't mentioned it, sir." I could sense that they're smiling. I couldn't be happier. "Kelly, you can come out now." Dad opens the door. As I appeared out of the door, I brought a smile on my face. "Dad, you really mean it?" "You heard?" I hugged him again. "Oh…" "Dad, I love him." I whimpered. "I really love him. I wanna keep in touch with him." "Sure, anything for you." Dad said as we parted, "Now then, do you think you can forgive Henry, now, after all what happened?" "Sure, Dad…" "Come on, let's go to the lobby and…" He glances at Kouya who was smiling, "Bring your new boyfriend with you, if you're ready to announce it to your Mother." He smirked. "Oh, Dad…" I blushed. "And don't worry about Konnor, I'll do the talking for you. You've suffered enough." He added. I thanked him. The three of us walked down the lobby and meet up the others. Kouya kindly holds my hand. Everyone were all sitting and waiting for us. They all stand up and Dad smiles at everyone. He called Henry's name. "Y-yes, Ronald?" "Kelly forgives you after all you've done to him." Dad announced him. "Really?" He reacted. And to prove him: I hug him. "Oh! Uh, Kelly, this is so…" "Embarrassing?" All of us replied. I stand back from Henry and face Ashton. "Hey, Ashton, do you still want your sword?" I asked. "Oh, fuck that sword, Kelly. I came here to apologize for being selfish after I'd accidentally leaved you alone in Fuji!" Ashton shouted. "Kelly-kun, I'm so sorry what I did to you. I really am." "Didn't you apologized at webcam chat?" "It wasn't worth it. I really wanna say it in person, Kelly." "He's really sorry, Kelly." Ashley said. "Okay, okay. I forgive you, Ashton." I replied him, but he abruptly hugs me tightly. He maybe clumsy, but he's really strong. After he parted from me, I wanted to say something to everyone at the end. "Speaking of swords; I've brought some gifts before all of you came." "Oh, brought some gifts?" Sylvia cried. "Yeah, and I'm saving you for last." I smiled. "Oh, me and my big mouth." She muttered. I led everyone back to my room, plus Kouya. I dug out of the bed and gave them the simple minded gifts. Two Japanese written mugs, one says: 'Number One Dad in the World'. And the other says: 'Crazy-Ass Uncle', Henry admitted this one as it fits his nutty personality he used to have, or he still has it. I gave Mom and Samantha some new tea sets and some green tea, oolong tea and coffee. To Ashley, a new manga book, the kind of book she reads, I still have the one she leaved in my suitcase, but this one, is a sequel. She squealed of joy. And Ashton, also a book, but an intriguing one that will help him to not be fooled by his fellow colleagues ever again. This book covers about history of Japan and real ancient artifacts, that'll please him. And also, his black sword. "Thank you, Kelly, but, why are giving me the sword, after all of it?" Ashton said. "It's nothing personal, but you love collecting Japanese stuffs ever since you moved in this country. I know it's a bad movie, but… I do feel guilty for telling you the truth behind these swords." "Kelly…" "I'm sorry, Ashton. Curiosity got me really good. You never shared your hobbies with me. When I found that sword in my suitcase, I felt angry and confused, so I somehow made a kind of revenge on you, the moment I found out you were the cause to leave me behind back at the hotel in Fuji. I guess is because we haven't seen each other for four years since the last time I saw you, expect the holidays." That came out of my mouth… "Apology accepted, Kelly." Ashton smiles. "Thank you." I can't believe I said that in front of everybody, did I really changed? It felt great! We all smiled at the end. "And lastly, the last gift goes to Sylvia." I said. "Close your eyes." I ordered her, Dad covers her sight. As I look over the closet, it's completely nearly empty since I packed everything up. I pick it up and put it in front of her. "Open your eyes." Dad lets her go, she gasped and screamed. "You bought me a kimono!?" She squealed. "I knew you were gonna love it!" "Oh, my stars! Thank you, Kelly!" Sylvia hugs me with joy. Afterwards, we lunched together at the Raimon restaurant and everyone were curious about the handsome husky I'm handing out with. I introduced him and he introduced back, and talk about himself. Good thing most of us, except Mom and Sylvia, speak Japanese, but Kouya had manage to show his English skills to both. Enough for them to understand. I talked to Dad if they can stay a few more nights for the inn's guest party tomorrow night. That's the best opportunity to meet up with everyone I've met and introduce them to my family. Dad agrees. After showing them around the village until the late afternoon. They all headed back to Kazenari since they were renting a hotel there. I told Mom I'm going to be fine by myself tonight like the other nights I've been through. Before Dad and the others could leave, I made some private, serious talking with Dad and Henry, they listened and understood my request, so tomorrow, I'm going to make someone's day. After they left, Kouya and me, in my quiet motel room, finally can take some rest after a long day I'll never forget, ever. I told Kouya everything what happened today before Toshi called him to come over. "You know, I'm proud of you, Kelly." Kouya said. "You really take the chances before they could get in the way. I knew you wouldn't let anything cross your path." "Thank you, Kouya." I sighed with relief. "You really were my torchlight. You guided me to find the exit. Dad is now happy that Konnor is alive and well. I saw a slight change of him." "What did you noticed?" "He's the same old dad that I used to know." I grinned. "Your father seem cool. What's got into him?" "I don't know, but, he's really open minded. So, you can relax on that." "I can't believe I just met him and went lunch together with your whole family in one day!" He exclaimed. I laughed and we both laughed. -Meanwhile in Kazenari- After tough day meeting up with Kelly at the village. While driving back to the nearby town we were staying, Dad made an announcement that shocked all of us. He talked carefully as he explained. All I could say was: "My brother is somewhere in San Francisco!?" "Yes," Dad said, "he's staying there protected by the program. Konnor did what was best for all of us." Dad said it bravely. Mom couldn't stop crying. So was I in disbelief. "And after all this time, Kelly kept it in secret?" "Kelly felt too guilty for being the only one who encountered him." Dad said. "And Konnor told him not to say a word. I know this is too complicated to believe, but this is Konnor we're talking about, Kelly doesn't say anything too radical and outrageous to claim to the police." Later, we recover our reactions after Dad's revelation. We came back to our hotel, night has fallen. We can finally have some rest, we had diner, and then go to bed. It was really a long day. I brought the kimono that Kelly gave me, it's so beautiful. I really wish I could've wear it for a certain event. "That's a lovely dress, Sylvia. Kelly, really thinks about you." Dad said as I place it in the closet. "He really does." I smiled. "You can wear it for evening party." He mentions. "Really? That's great!" "Would you two be quiet, I'm on the phone." Mom said. "Ronald, I think you should hear this?" "Who's calling?" "Some agent." "Agent? Put it on speaker." As Mom do so, Dad talks, "Hello, this Ronald Sullivan. Who I'm speaking to?" "This is Agent Ramirez from the FBI. I see that you and your family are on vacation overseas." "That's correct, but why are you calling, Agent?" "Well, we would like to tell you that…" The voice from the phone explain something that we've never though it could actually happen in such a real-life world. I cried of joy and run to their rooms and scream like no crazy American girl ever shown excitement in years. We must tell Kelly about this!
