“And how’s everything going for you, Michael?” Lily asked me. “Your mom told us how you couldn’t come over last time. Is everything alright?”
“Yeah, sorry about that,” I said as I gave a shrug. “I had a bit of a cold and I just had a lot on my mind that I just couldn’t come over.”
I can see my dad looking over at me before letting out a sigh, “Well, if it’s nothing for us to be worried about then it’s fine and you're here now.” he said.
I ran my hands over my hair and took a deep breath. “Thanks, Dad,” I said.
It became quiet around us and Elliot gave me a small encouraging smile.
“How long have you two been together?” My dad asked as he closed the lid of the grill to let the food cook.
I looked away, a little shy now, and shrugged my shoulders, “A while now, two months. Three by the end of the month if I have to be exact.” I answered.
My dad nodded before turning to Elliot, “And have you told your parents? Do they know about your relationship?”
