Chapter 67 - Honeymoon Again (2/2)
” What do ya need?” With a sour tone my mom replied.
” At least let me finish being a considerate son.”
Jesus Christ!
” Mom. I'm sorry, really. I know that I can't show you the love I have for you. But believe me, you're the second woman I love most in this world.”
” Ohh, and who's the first one?” She teased me and it's kinda awkward.
” Your daughter-in-law.” I replied her like a shameless person.
” Ae from?
” No-”
” Then why all this?” Oh god! Why does she sound angry?
” Uhhh.... to give you guys grandkids?” I didn't had any other excuses that time. I should have planned it beforehand but never mind. This will be enough to convince her. I'm a guy who stays at work most of the time. So, if I go on a small vacation I can spend more time with my wife.
” Are asking me or telling me?”
” Both?”
” If it were me I would have taken her to Paris.” Suddenly a familiar male voice spoke up from the other side of the phone.
” Is that dad? Did you put your phone on loud speakers?”
” I was just letting you father hear our conversation.” Mom tried to sound reasonable after committing the crime. This is the last time I'm gonna call you for advice.
” What's embarrassing? You prefer asking your mom about love advice and not your dad? Stupid brat! Back in those day, when I was young, all my friends used to call me Romeo after seeing your mom and me together. I had loved her so much that your mom never thought of leaving me. ” My goodness! Dad is going to start lecturing me again. This is why I don't get well with him. Every time I have something to ask from him, things would turned out messy. At the end I would have only wasted my time.
” Honey! Stop it! not in front of our kid.”
” God! I always end up being the third wheel.” Rolling my eyes upward I began to curse my existence. Why the hell I was born?
