If it had been up to Gerald, he would have introduced her to his parents much sooner, however, since they lived across the Pacific Ocean all the way in Australia, it had not been possible. But now, they had come to the United States to visit Gerald, celebrate his birthday, and stay for 1 month. And in December of 2015, only 4 months after they had begun dating, she met his parents, such lovely people with a warm smile always on their faces. By the time they returned to Australia, they had spent many hours together with Rubi and Gerald, many dinners shared, and much happy laughter and fun times had been experienced. Rubi has kept in touch with them since they departed back home, and they text almost everyday ^_^
