If You Break My Heart I'll Date Your Father [Hiatus]

chapter 4

Nickolas' POV

I entered the kitchen to make breakfast, as I usually do last night date was an absolute failure. Why would someone marry agree to go on a blind date, I almost got myself in some real scandalous situations.

I sighed taking out the frying pan, I went to the fridge took out some other ingredients such as eggs, ham and beacon etc.....

I started to make the mixture to make pancakes for both Micheal and I, though my son is already 22 I don't have a problem making breakfast. Some say his old enough let him do it himself but these are the little times I get to interact with him these days his living his own life now, as a single parent I must accept that but I still want to do this much at least.

After lightning the fire I started to make the pancakes, by the time I'm almost done with breakfast my son came walking in the room. My eyes wide open and my lips tightened and I saw my son's face his was scratched his nose saw bandage his lips were burst, what ever happened yesterday was not pleasant his sour and angry expression told not to mention it.

These days our relationship between father and son has not been the best so I don't want to do anything to tip the relationship we have, so I just placed the pancakes french toast with bacon. I then put 2 options on which he'd like to pour on his pancakes honey, or flavored syrup.

I then put a come of espresso beside him as I place my breakfast on the opposite side and sat down.

"Good morning" I said

".......... morning"

His tone was lower and sounded pained what's happened what's going on with him, I don't know what goes on in his head these days he use to be so easy to read.

After cutting in the first bite of the pancake, he looked up grimly from the plate at me.

"Aaron and I broke up, there's no need for you to talk to him anymore" his was commanding I did not like it sounded rather rude.

Plus his statement wasn't exactly the easiest, Aaron was the only person that he introduced to since highschool. I get were he is coming from and I can't say that it doesn't make me sad and mad at the same time.

I'm 38 years old and Micheal is 22 and no I did not adopted him, I wasn't the player type of teenager either this was something people only deemed a rebellious and player boy would do. But that's not the case for me.

Whenever Michael and I were in public places together people would asked, are you two brothers? Can I have your number?. It was funny at first and explaining to teenagers that your not your teenage son brother but father, wasn't always fun I feel like that's where he started distancing himself and I don't know how to fix it.

It's not fun when people hit on your dad more than you, I want to be an active father and I don't want to be the type of parent who hides themselves and who they are to save their face. I don't want to be seen as an embarrassment to him but what can I do?.

"That must have been rough" I said trying to make a conversation as u sipped the coffee.

Aaron in my opinion is quite the out going type rude but bold and confident quite the opposite of my son.

Because he was the only other he introduced me to since highschool, I did form a friendship of the sort with Aaron the kid was not all that bad. Kinda funny talking to him at times we agreed upon distancing ourselves because Michael apparently thought we were being too friendly towards each other and it can be misunderstood by others.

I didn't understand how but I respected his wishes and kept our distance, I don't know if Michael will ever be comfortable with me around I wish he would relax.

But I don't think I'm the one to to say this, since I being this "young" as claimed to be a father of a 22 year old, I get criticism but I'm never ashamed of him I'll never hide him.

"Yeah of course it is it's Aaron" he hissed

I don't understand that statement and I don't like it either.
