"He uses my mother's maiden name," Ernest explained. "My mother raised him up since birth. It wasn't until we were five that our parents got together. Hence, that's why his last name is Smith. He never changed it."
"That's weird. It doesn't sound like something he would do."
"My brother is very persistent. Once he's made up his mind, he is not going to change."
As Ernest spoke, his eyes fell on Celeste, as if he was implying something.

"He's probably going to remain loyal to the person he loves forever. I just can't imagine him marrying someone who is not his first love."
"Is he seeing someone?" Celeste asked in surprise.
