Soon enough the visualization showed that of an average size looking dinner table, with Anna seen approaching it as Ralph was seen putting what appeared to be a vase of flower's in the center of the table; as Anna appeared slightly confused but shook her head figuring Ralph must like flowers on the table.



Anna approached and pulled out a chair sitting down on it and looking towards her plate of food, which appeared to be some sort of fancy looking dish; with a shrug, she also took notice into the fact her drink of water was resting on a coaster- causing her to tilt her head, before she soon overheard Ralph say.



"So, I was meaning to ask; how did things go with your brother and uh..nephew?" He asked trying to recall back to what Jessie had told him, with Anna looking over at him and shaking her head.



"..Fine I guess," Anna muttered.



"You guess?" Ralph asked.



"I ..I learned my brother had an affair," Anna said, as Ralph appeared shocked.



"..What?" He asked.



"Yeah... I learned it from his ex-wife but then questioned him on it and he came clean after a bit, he told me he had met this woman they got together...but then he basically got caught, felt guilty said he was sorry and his wife divorced him." Anna said with a bit of a groan as she shook her head.



"Urg, it reminds me JUST of me ex.."



"What do you mean?" Ralph asked.



"Sorry, I didn't mean to cheat on you." Anna sarcastically said as she waved her hand around a bit before adding.



"Or OH one of my favorite's; "I was feeling alone, and I guess I just ..needed someone" all that... urghhh... just because you may have a problem with your wife doesn't mean you should go CHEAT on her."



"...I get that." Ralph said as he shook his head.



"..So what did you say to your brother after you learned he had the affair?" Ralph asked as Anna shook her head.



"...I stormed away, I basically told him every time I tried to get close to him I ended up getting hurt and I didn't need that; so I left." Anna said.



"And that's just it?..your brother just let you leave?" Ralph asked as Anna shook her head.
