• "Isn't your wife pregnant yet?" My father asked in between meals. I almost choked on food, and Veronica hurriedly passed a glass of water over to me.
• "What? Did I say anything out of the ordinary? She is your wife; why won't I ask if she is pregnant?" He said it again. I didn't know if I was feeling embarrassed about the question or about the fact that I hadn't marked my mate yet. Even though we are married, I have not yet marked her.
