Married at First Sight

Serenity Hunt got up first thing in the morning to make breakfast for her sister’s family of three before grabbing her birth certificate and slipping away in the silence.

“We’re going Dutch from now on, and I’m talking about everything – the living expenses, the mortgage, and auto loans! Your sister should be splitting the cost since she’s staying at our place.

Twenty minutes later, Serenity got off to her pit stop at City Hall.
