"I'm sorry our alone time recently has not been the best. Do you still want to cut off some of my fingers?" Eli asked, trying to lighten the mood. They hadn't been on a date in a while because everywhere they turned something was happening. It is either his father, mother, friends, her friends, or people they didn't care about meddling in their lives.
He knew to expect this much when he introduced Helen as his girlfriend but he was on top of keeping her one hundred percent happy like he wanted to. He had plans to end off tonight on a better note earlier but the sudden plan of getting his mother away interrupted what he wanted to do with Helen.
Hearing no response from Helen, he continued to say, "I'm sorry for hyping your sexual desires up and then leaving you high and dry when my mother's things arrived. I learned that my father was on his way over and so I wanted to be prepared in case he pulled anything stupid."
