Mr. Ortega was surprised with Ivan's statement so he asked, "What?! Do you mean you'll go to a country where same-sex marriage is legal?"
"Yes! That's right!" Ivan exclaimed cheerfully with a nod.
"I see. What a crazy idea you have," Mr. Ortega commented. "But as long as you truly love my son, that's all that matters to me."
"Yup! Got it!" Ivan exclaimed happily. Then he remembered something and asked, "By the way, may I call you 'Papa' now?"
"And why?" Mr. Ortega asked seriously.
"It's because you have already accepted me as your son's boyfriend," Ivan responded.
"No, not yet," Mr. Ortega replied bluntly while shaking his head.
"Why not?" Ivan, who did not feel offended or anything, asked curiously.
"It's still too early for that. Just call me 'Uncle' instead," Mr. Ortega responded.
"Alright! I'll be calling you 'Uncle' then!" Ivan exclaimed cheerfully.
