Questioning (1)

The break with Ian went by in the blink of an eye but Scarlet did not mind since she was eager to introduce Ian to her relatives. While Scarlet enjoyed just being with Ian, she missed her parents and Alana. 

"Not a word of the engagement even when they question you about when you plan to get married. You must remain strong and not fold right away. While they would like to know if you plan to marry me, they will judge you for being afraid of them," Scarlet informed Ian.

"What is the worst they will do to get answers out of me?" Ian asked, his fear started to show now that they were getting closer to Scarlet's family home. It was easy to be confident when they were not yet around her family but now it was different.
