Sura swallowed nervously before hesitantly asking me, "How many are they?"
"Just a few," I replied, intentionally downplaying the number to avoid overwhelming her.
"A few?" Sura repeated, her eyes widening, "Two or three?"
Raising an eyebrow, I corrected her, "Six and above."
"S-six..." Sura gulped once more, her voice trailing off before she continued, "....and above? How come you are only telling me now that you have such a large family?" she asked in disbelief.
With a mischievous smile, I realized that Sura didn't know much about my family, except the fact that I was staying with my mother since I hadn't shared many details with her. So, I suggested, "Why don't we meet them first, and I'll introduce them to you?" I knew it was best not to overwhelm her with the actual number of people waiting to meet her. Knowing Sura's temperament, revealing too much would only agitate her, leading to unnecessary delays.
