Silly Drama.

''Should I trust you to introduce your secret girlfriend to me in due time?''

His dad air quoted the term ''Secret girlfriend'', in a way that pissed him off. So what, if his alleged girlfriend happens to be a boy; not just any boy—Jake!, what then was he going to do about it?

Kaiden hissed now. He had begun to grow tired of this talk. It was already enough that his dad had flown all the way to his school simply to interrogate him about Vanessa; he considered it pretty awkward, but he was willing to excuse him if he let him leave already.

''I already said I was gonna let you meet them dad.'' Kaiden picked up his hands to palm his face. Breathing into, he mumbled out the words: ''Can you please just cut me some slack?''

Benjamin sneered.

''Why're you sulking like I'm oppressing you?''

''You're not.'' Kaiden let down his hands. ''You are not, okay.''

''Then why have you refused to also touch your drink?''
