Story

The story

Elena takes annual leave and flies home for her younger brother Ryan's big news, only to find her luggage dumped outside the door. Her parents explain that Ryan's girlfriend Chloe will only marry an only child, so Elena must stay elsewhere and introduce herself as a distant cousin. Ryan tosses the last of her belongings out like trash, and her mother tells her the house is becoming Ryan's marital home. When her parents demand the gold bracelet she bought as a welcome gift, Elena refuses and walks away.

Then she learns the emerald bracelet her grandmother left her is being kept as the family heirloom for Ryan's future wife. Remembering that her grandmother's will also left her the house her parents live in, Elena records the deed and calls a realtor to sell it below market.

With the family group chat filling with photos of her old room demolished for a new marital suite, Elena must decide how far she will go to reclaim what is hers.

The moment I arrived, I found my luggage dumped carelessly outside the front door.

My parents looked surprised to see me, but quickly recovered.

"Ryan's girlfriend only wants to marry an only child, so we've been telling people Ryan has no siblings.
