My grandparents took my room on my honeymoon because they're my elders. But I just got

0:06.6

married. My family is Asian. My husband's side is white. My husband and I got married and are

0:13.7

treating his side of the family and my side to a one week all expense paid vacation to Borah Bora

0:20.2

as a pre-family honeymoon before going off on

0:23.0

our real one. We were able to rent out half a side of the bungalows, and only one villa was in that

0:28.7

section. My husband and I took the villa. The bungalows are a 1,000 square feet, one bedroom,

0:35.7

option of a kingbed or two queens, one bathroom and outdoor space

0:39.5

kind of deal. We made sure everyone was accommodated for and everyone had a comfortable living situation.

0:45.5

Our villa is a 4,000 square foot, one bedroom, one bath, including sauna living room, a grand outdoor space,

1:24.7

This is Bora Bora we're talking about. No one is living as a peasant here. There was only one

1:30.2

villa available in our section. Had I given it to my grandparents, I think it would have been

1:34.3

offensive to my husband's grandparents. And if there were three, we would have given it to both

1:38.7

grandparents and one for ourselves. But unfortunately, there wasn't, so we didn't. I mentioned this and they still demanded the villa.

1:47.0

I obviously objected and said, I felt as though my husband and I should have that room,

1:52.0

as this is a vacation with family to celebrate our marriage.
