"I'm nervous Lan," Mila showed Lando her phone as they walked towards Lando's car. Lando squeezed Mila's hand reassuringly, "It will be alright darling, they will love you." Mila's heart raced even more than it already was. Love, it was a complicated thing. Mila had never been in love before, but now that she met Lando she could feel herself possibly falling in love with him. She wouldn't say anything though, it was way too early for that.
Lando stepped out of the car when they arrived and walked over to the passenger side of his car, opening the door for Mila. She grabbed his hand and took a deep breath as they walked towards the front door of Lando's childhood home. Before they could press the bell, the door opened, revealing who Mila assumed was Lando's parents. "My baby, how are you?" Lando's mother said as she pulled him in for a hug and a kiss. When she pulled away she looked at Mila, "And who may this beautiful lady be?" Mila blushed and held out her hand, "This is Mila, my press officer, and girlfriend."
Mila could see the shock on his mother's face, he clearly didn't inform his parents he was bringing her along. Mila shot Lando an angry look but put a smile on her face when she was enveloped in a hug. "I'm Lando's mother, Ciska. It's so good to meet you, Mila! Lando talks about you all the time but he didn't tell us you were his girlfriend! And he certainly didn't tell us you are this beautiful!" Mila blushed, glad his mother somewhat liked her already. Lando's father on the other hand was another story. Mila stuck out her hand for him to shake, he looked at her with an icy cold look on his face, "I'm Adam." Mila couldn't read then man, it changed when Lando greeted his father and the two men hugged, Adam got a warm smile on his face.
"Come inside! The food is ready." Lando and Mila walked in after Ciska and Adam, Mila took the surroundings of the house in. Family photos we're scattered over the walls. Mila looked at some photos of who she assumed was a little Lando, he looked cute, a small race suit on his body while he smiled widely and held up a trophy. "Adorable right? Come, everybody is waiting. I will show you some more pictures later." Ciska said and winked at Mila.
Mila walked into the dining room, the table was full of food and she saw his siblings waiting for her arrival. "Mila! I didn't know you were coming! It is so good to see you again! Are you staying for dinner too? Maybe you can make that amazing risotto?" Flo said as she hugged her before taking her seat again. Mila shrugged her shoulders and looked at Lando for confirmation. Lando had a big smile on his face, glad his mother and sister liked her. "We will see alright? Let's eat brunch first, " Landi said to his little sister. Adam had been silent the whole time, everyone started digging into the delicious food Ciska had prepared.
Playful banter went back and forth between the siblings until Oliver spoke up, "You are not much of a talker, are you?" Oliver directed towards Mila. Her face went red and Lando squeezed her hand under the table. Lando sighed, "I told you guys that Mila mute." Oliver's mouth fell open, "sorry, I forgot." Mil grabbed her small whiteboard out of her purse, "It's alright, I should be the one apologizing, I don't make first encounters very easy." Chuckles could be heard around the table, "Don't apologize, honey, it is not your fault." Adam spoke up for the first time since Mila walked into his house, "So Mila, I'm not going to beat around the bush. You got a promotion when you met Lando, that seems a bit suspicious." Mila didn't know what to say, "I'm not following where you are going sir, " Mila felt her heart pound, this was what she was dreading. "I'm asking if you are using my son's fame to get higher up, " Adam said, rolling his eyes.
Lando was stunned, not expecting his father to be this hard on his first girlfriend. "Adam! You can't ask her that!" Ciska said as she looked angry at her husband. "What, she has worked for Mclaren for a couple of years already, and suddenly when she wants a promotion, she is meeting our son. And on top of that she just moved in with him, she now lives off him. I'm just watching out for him, what could the mute girl possibly have to offer." Mila felt the tears pool in her eyes, she shoved her chair back and walked out of the dining room, she didn't know where she was going but she saw a door to what she assumed was the backyard.
Mila sat down on a lounge chair, she knew this could happen, it was the conversation she always dreaded when meeting new people. She knew it was true though, what did she have to offer Lando. The tears fell freely when she felt someone sit down next to her, it was Flo. "I'm sorry for my fathers' behavior, Lando is going off at him inside. He is just protective over Lando, but that certainly doesn't make his comments right." Flo pulled Mila in her side, hugging her tightly without saying anything. Flo let go when she saw her brother approach, he showed her a small smile, thanking her for checking up on Mila.
Lando sat behind Mila, his legs on either side of her legs, he pulled her into his chest so they were laying down. Lando laid his hands over Mila's stomach. "I screamed at my dad, he had no right to say those things, and I want you to know that they are not true. You are so special, and if anyone has something to offer me, it's you." Mila rubbed over the top of Lando's hand, her tears had stopped but she was scared to go inside. "We can go home in a bit, we have to pack for the upcoming race, to which my father is coming by the way. I told him that he needs to change his behavior because I like you, and I want you in my life, so if he wants to come and see me, he needs to change his attitude."
Mila sat up and Lando followed, she wanted to be in Lando's life for a long time, so she needed to face Adam eventually. She pulled Lando to his feet and kissed him before pulling him into a tight embrace. Mila took the lead and walked back into the house, it surprised Lando a bit when she walked back to where his family was seated, he would have thought she wanted to leave.
Mila sat down in her chair next to Lando and across from Adam. She grabbed her whiteboard and began scribbling. Everyone was watching intently, not knowing what was about to happen. When Mila was done writing, she pushed the whiteboard directly towards Adam so he could read it first, her hands were slightly trembling as she watched Adam and Ciska read.
"With all due respect, you are very wrong about me. I may be mute but I know how to respect another human being, and the way you spoke to me early lacked respect all over. Yes, I got promoted but that was way before I met Lando. I got promoted because I am good at my job, I got promoted because Mclaren thinks I do an excellent job. Your son may be famous but in the time we have been dating I was the one who wanted to stay on the low, not Lando. I knew this would happen if we went public. You may not like me and that is fine, but you don't know me, you have no right to judge me. You don't know why I am mute, you don't know what happened in my past. As to tell you, I am certainly not a gold digger. I moved in with Lando because he asked and I would rather sleep on the streets than taking advantage of Lando. It is clear that you don't like me but I will try to civil with you and treat you with respect, for Lando's sake."
Adam was stunned, he wasn't prepared for her to stand up for herself like this. Lando stood up, "I think it is for the best if we go home." Ciska nodded. Lando greeted his siblings and to Mila's surprise, they hugged her goodbye as well. Cisk walked them towards the front door and stopped Mila when she wanted to walk towards the car. "Honey, I'm so sorry for the way Adam acted, just know that I will welcome you with open arms. And I know he is coming to Imola with Lando but just has Lando call me if he is giving you a hard time alright?" Mila nodded and gave Ciska a sweet smile and a kiss on her cheek. "I hope we will see you soon Mila, it was very nice to meet you. Make sure Lando takes care of you alright? Because I know you have done nothing but make him happy already." Mila hugged Ciska one more time before stepping into the car so Lando could say goodbye to his mother.
