First Time Meeting Your Parents

The couple were enjoying themselves that day, but sadly, the day ended and Maverick needs to go home.

The next day, Queshia met with her friend, Kei, to talk about something she'd been wanting to tell Maverick.

"Hey girl! Wassup?" Queshia greeted them both.

"You know...same old same old...you? Is there a problem?" Kei pried

"Everything's going fine actually...there's just this one thing. Remember the time before I met Maverick? When I made out with Randall, an old classmate of mine?" Queshia asked and explained for them to remember.

"Yeah...so? You want to come clean with Maverick?"

"Yeah...I just don't know if it's a good idea. I mean...it's already in the past right? I just don't want to hide anything from him..."

"Then go...tell him. Open up to him...tell him everything you want to...if he reacted badly to it, then break up with him. It means he's not worth it."

"Ok thanks...so...are you really going to drop off and start working next semester?"

"Yeah...I don't have the means to study here...the fees are already too much for us to handle. I've been giving promissory notes and I don't think we could repay them...so I have to work..."

They chatted for a little while before returning to their classes separately.

The day ended well and she decided to open up to Maverick tonight.

They were already home washing the dishes when suddenly her sister arrived fighting with her drunk husband at midnight.

"What is your problem?! We just arrived last night and now you're already drunk as f*ck and breaking things!" Her sister, Patty, argued with her husband.

Both Queshia and Maverick were beyond shocked. Queshia was never fond of her sister's husband. She was controlling her anger as she continued washing the dishes, whilst Maverick couldn't help but butt in when Patty's husband hit her.

"Hey man, you could continue arguing, but please don't go overboard into hitting your wife." Maverick said as he used his body to block Patty.

"The hell you care?!" Patty's husband argued back as he almost hit Maverick.

"Stop!!! Mind your business! Go!" Patty shooed Maverick at the same time, stopping her husband.

"I was just helping...it's not right for you to get hit even if he's that angry!" Maverick argued back while Queshia was already crying trying to stop them.

"Just go. She won't listen to you. She knows her husband's capabilities more than she knows yours." Queshia explained as she could see the danger in Maverick's eyes.

"No. I won't let you stay here. You're coming home with me. Don't argue with me and let's go!" Maverick said as he took his bag and Queshia's and pulled her away.

As they left the apartment and waited for a ride, they continued to chat.

"Are they always like that? Are you ok?" Maverick asked.

"I don't know...yeah I'm fine...you? Are you sure it's ok with your parents? It's like...1 am..." Queshia said with uncertainty.

"I'm texting them right now...they'll understand...don't worry..." Maverick said comforting her.

"Hmmm...ok...I just can't believe that this will be the first time I'm meeting your parents...and at this kind of situation...ha ha..." Queshia chuckled bitterly

"Yeah...there's a first time for everything...don't worry...they're cool with it...see...they replied already...they said its ok and let's be safe." Maverick said as he showed the reply of his parents.

Queshia just hummed her response as she started at the uncertainty on Maverick's face. It feels like he never intended to let her meet his parents.

"Did your parents know who your recent exes were?" She couldn't help but ask.

"No...only Lenny and Rika..."

"Oh...then were you planning on letting me meet your parents sometime soon if this didn't happen?" She asked despite knowing that Maverick was too honest at times it hurts her...well, you know what they say...truth hurts.

"Well...yeah...once I know for sure that we'll last...but they already know of you...unlike my other exes, they don't even exist in my parents eyes..."

"Oh. Ok." She tried to smile sincerely as she put her head on his shoulder tiredly.

"Hey wake up...we're here..." Maverick trapped her cheek lightly.

"Oh...sorry...I didn't realize I was sleeping...what time is it?...I-I'm kinda of nervous now that we're here..." Queshia yawned as she apologized and started at their house.

"It's almost 3am...no worries...I know you're tired..." Maverick winked and tried to joke about the dirty deed they made, thus the reason for the very late dinner.

"Shutup..." Queshia blushed shyly.

"Relax...calm down...you'll be fine..." Maverick said as he unlocked the gate.

"Dad...mom...this is Queshia...Queshia...meet my parents" Maverick introduced them to each other.

"Uhm...g-good evening Mr. and Mrs. Ibsen...I-I'm really sorry for having to disturb you this late in the middle of the night..." Queshia apologized nervously.

"It's alright dear...call us Dan and Theresse...are you ok? What happened?" His mom, Theresse said as she let her sit down at the dining room.

"Let them rest...you can ask them after waking up...go..." His dad, Dan, instructed as he escorts his wife back to their room.

"Thank you...I'm sorry again for the disturbance..." Queshia once again apologized.

The couple just nod before leaving.

"Here...they're mine...you should change before sleeping so you could be comfortable..." Maverick said as he handed her some clothes.

"Thanks...goodnight..."

"Sure...sleepwell...love you" Maverick replied as he kissed her goodnight
