Visiting in-laws (6)

Hearing this, I decided to stop beating around the bush and said, "Your parents, I wanted to talk to you about your parents."

The look of a girl in love that was on Rose's face disappeared when she heard this.

It was replaced with an expression of unwillingness, like she really didn't want to talk about this.

But seeing the serious look that I had on my face, she said with a sigh, "What did you want to talk about in regards to them?"

"Are you embarrassed of me, is that why you've never brought me to meet them?" I suddenly asked.

This time, it was Rose's turn to be shocked.

She looked at me with a look of confusion and disbelief, as if she couldn't understand what I was saying. 

But she quickly shook her head and said, "No, it isn't that I'm embarrassed of you. I would never be embarrassed of you."

I just looked at her with a calm look and asked, "Then why have you never brought me to see your parents after all this time?"
