Marriage Proposals

Catalina and Dennis were awake early like every day. They were sitting with the coffee when they heard hounding on the door. 

Looking at each other, Dennis went to open the door and Catalina followed him closely, wondering who could arrive so early in the morning in such cold.

A man in his fifties shoved the cold bouquet in Dennis's hand, "The night journey is terrible I say." The man welcomed himself inside with his wife and daughter. 

"Lina, could you please make us some coffee? We are freezing." The middle-aged lady said as she removed the jacket and went inside.

Dennis and Catalina looked at each other. The man was Dennis's elder brother who had pressured them to abort Anya's baby. They hadn't spoken to them since then.

Dennis closed the door while Catalina went to make coffee, disliking their guests at the moment.
