Elanie's pov
I feel nervous when my dad saw Randall beside me and his demeanor turns dark and cold .
" Dad He's....." before I can say more " Who are you?" my dad directly ask Randall . I turn to him and I feel like crying or laughing in his situation which his trying to keep his cool self but somehow I can see how nervous he is . So the great CEO do feel nervous after all I thought his good in dealing people . There really are exception in everything.
" Randall Colleens , Sir . please to meet you" He said I'm glad he manage to speak straight inspite of my dad's intimidating facade Randall is an intimidating man too but at this point I think his trying to get in my dad's good side.
" Who are you to my daughter?" dad ask without blinking and give Randall a very sharp look.
" Dad please can you at least let us in first" I hold his arm to get his attention but it didn't work he totally ignores me and wait for Randall's answer.
I nervously look at Randall to see him gulp and stood straighter than before my heart jumps in my chest on his answer " Im courting your daughter sir" He said without hesitation in his voice instead the determination and seriousness can be heard in his voice.
" You dare to? " dad smirk and I tell you that smirk means you dare to snatch my daughter look. For some reason I already saw that look of him for how many times already for those who tried , really tried to court me but dad end up scaring them away which I always feel glad but this time for this man in front of us I don't seem to like my dad to scare him away but if he does then his not different from everyone else too .
" Dad come on inside" I pull dad and turn to Randall " Please come in first " I said and mouthed sorry towards him which he smiles in return and nod at me while he follow us towards our sofa.
I push dad to sit and say" Have a sit " towards Randall which he obligued.
" You two can continue talking I just gonna grab some drinks " I know my dads drink so I turn to Randall to ask " Is pineapple juice okay with you?" . " Yes , Thank you" he answered I nod and give both of them a glance before leaving them to prepare the drinks. Dad and me likes pineapple juice that is cold with crashed ice put on the glass so I'm just gonna do the same for Randall too.
Just this once I really am hoping for them to get along . While making the drinks I can't help but pray for positive outcome between the two man .
After I made the drinks which last for only five minutes due to crashing some ice ,we always have ice on the fridge and a crasher for this reason .
As I walk back to where they are I tighten my grip on the glasses and prepare myself to what will I witness and I'm glad I did because what I see makes my jaw drop literally while I blink many times to check if I'm seeing things right.
Dad is now sitting beside Randall as they are having a good chat . What happen ? Why do they get too close ? Did Randall bought my dad? that's just impossible dad's a very outright to do accept such thing and Randall won't do such thing also . So?
" What's going on?" I can't help but ask aloud for them to hear me.
They both turns to look at me as both of their back is on me.
" Lan , this man is good . You did a great catch on this fish" Dad laughs my eyes gone wide with his words. Is that my dad talking.
I look at Randall and I can see his proud smile at me.
" She really did" He said and laugh along with my dad.
" Oh no . Please don't tell me I'll be having you two against me?" I ask exaggeratedly as images of them agreeing and helping each other against me for some things just like this when I'll gonna ask dad to go somewhere both of them will stop me or I can't do things without their consent . I gasp on that thought.
" This might be a bad thing" I sigh feeling helpless" I hear them both laugh which makes me frown.
" Ahhh our Ela is pouting so cute and pretty" That's the so called CEO. " Truly lovable daughter of mine" and that's my so called dad .
" I'm frowning not pouting " I glared to them " Pouting" Both of them said at the same time I look at them in shock and even point my finger to them .
" That's it it's happening " I exclaimed right it really is happening both of them are in sync now .
" What?" they both ask again while smiling at me . I don't know If I should laugh or cry poor me . What did I got myself into?
Though I'm happy that dad approves of Randall pursuing me their are still things that I felt like I'm gonna have some regrets on thw coming days .
Randall stays for an hour before leaving he said he'll fetch me tomorrow and drive me to work even though I ask him not too because its not that far from here but dad helps him for me to agree just like what I fear to happen their ganging up on me even if I say no hundred times they'll double it until I agree .
Im glad everything's doing just fine but Sometimes in all good things that happens their will be challenges in between . I just hope that no matter what the future holds we can face it all and make things work out.
