The day after the night before.
We both made it home on time after a long day's work yesterday. The last minute tidying up and got ready. Flowers were arranged, candles lit. Kept checking myself in the mirror, pacing myself around the living room.
'What time are we expecting them again baby?'
'You asked that already!'
'And?!'
'No pressure but if they don't like you, you're out!'
'Fu#k off!'
Buzzer! Sh#t!
Said hello, hand shakes. Singapore Girl smile. So far so good.
'Wow! This place look more like a home already!'
'Oh thank you... D helped too! Wink!
Champagne poured. 'Welcome to Kenny! And to D's decision!' (Ever so subtle, ever so English)
The evening went really well after. The 'interview' throughout the evening went without a hitch. I was in my best behaviour even after glasses of champagne and wine. The walk to the restaurant was chatty, they loved the place, the menu was brilliant, and both wine and conversation were flowing freely.
D's parents were so lovely. Very friendly and so accepting and welcoming. What I really admired them most was from D coming out to them last Sunday, and here we were having dinner together five days after... the catalyst for this meeting were hardly mentioned at all. They had embraced D and our relationship completely without any prejudice. I do believed that they have known about D for a long while but have waited for D to 'come clean' to them at his own time and will.
The power of Love and family ties runs deeper and were ever so prominent and strong.
At the end of the evening, we've walked them to the station to see them off. Said our goodbyes and the last parting words from D's Dad were 'Will you watch over him?'
'I will.' Looking at D, smiled. His Dad smiled and waved goodbye.
