What if you were Tom?
For me, I would react differently than Tom did. I would probably pick up some quarrel with Ruth arguing about the girls origin, or maybe I would reject the girl outrightly. Hmmm... I'm still thinking of what I would have done if I had been Tom. Tell me your reaction.

In the Philippines, couples with newly married children eagerly await their first grandchild (called apo in Filipino). When the apos do come, the grandparents usually spoil their apos and become doting lolos and lolas (gramps and grannies). So, if I were Tom, I would most probably welcome the apo with open arms.
