I spent the entire week planning the lunch with my parents. I don't know what to cook. I thought about cooking Paella but I'm not quite sure.

„Hey Mary. Would you mind going grocery shopping for me again? I won't be home until 9pm today.", I'm in the cafeteria.

„Of course no problem. What do you need?", she asks.

„I'll send you a list. My family is coming over tomorrow and I want to cook Paella. Do you want some? I'll put it aside for you."

„Oh my gosh, that would be amazing. Thank you."

„Alright. I have to get going, sweetie. I'll send you the list right now.", I start packing my things.

„Ok. I'll put everything into the fridge."

„Thanks. Bye."

„Bye.", she hangs up.

„Who was that?", Ivy looks up from her phone.

„Oh just our maid slash a friend of mine. She's lovely. I should introduce you two.", I send Mary the list.

„Sure, but we need to go now. It's already pretty late.", I see that she's already waiting for me.

„Yea. Sorry. My mind is somewhere else right now.", I catch up to her.

„What's going on?", she looks at me.

„It's just. My family is meeting Emilio for the first time. As a family. When we got married my parents didn't know this side of him, so I'm ‚introducing' them. By the way do you know what you're wearing for the party?"

„No, not yet. I don't know what look I should be going for.", from the look on her face I can see that she has thought a lot about this.

„I think it should be casual but cool, yet very easy to take off. You're definitely gonna get laid."

„How do you know? And why are you saying this? You're the last one who should be saying that.", why is she saying it like that? I have a sex life too, you know. I know what I'm talking about.

„I can tell. When you left me and Jae alone the other day I could see what kind of guy he is. He did drop some hints. And I'm married now, don't act like I don't have a sex life.", I open the door.

She stayed silent for a while but then asked: „What hints?", Ivy lets her bag down.

„...Jae asked me if I want to go to the party with you and he mentioned his friends. The way he said it was like. I don't know. He was definitely trying to set me up with one of his friends. Thus I just assume that there will be banging.", I sit down too.

„His friends? You mean the ones hosting?", I nod my head.

„They're total jackasses. Playboys. They just fuck and then leave you freaking humiliated. I don't even know why Jae is friends with them. But I promise you he's a good guy.", Ivy looks at me.

„I'll go with you to the party. Let's see what kind of friends he has. I just hope that Emilio doesn't insist in coming along.", I smile at her.

The lecture was just as usual. The exams are in a week, I hope everything will go well.

Mary: Hey, I just bought everything. I'll put it in the fridge for you. Text me when you cooked the Paella. ;)

Why are you smiling?", Ivy asks.

„Oh Mary just texted me.", I show her the text massage.
