CHAPTER 35

　　Duke appears to be shivering.

　　"Duke, stop the car; I'll drive; you're too tense, we might collide," I said.

　　He exited the vehicle. As a result, I was the one who had to drive for the two of us. I think I understand him right now. Meeting a girlfriend's parents can be stressful, especially if they are overly strict.

　　"Drink some water first; maybe you brought something in your car," I suggested. He went behind the car to get some water in a plastic mineral container.

　　I came to a complete stop because we were right next to Mitch's apartment. Then he exited the gate. He rapped on the car's door. When I opened it, he punched me.

　　"Amara called me, Duke, you can't be reached," Mitch explained. When he climbed into the car.

　　"I turn off my phone because I don't want anyone calling me, especially when I'm nervous," Duke responded.

　　"Everything will be fine, don't worry about it," Mitch said.

　　"I can't help myself, Mitch."
