Jacob has rose from his seat and bowed before the gorgeous caucasian couple. Adriana ran towards the couple and took them within her grasp. They smiled warmly. The female kissed her lightly on the cheek and giggled. Adriana stepped backwards just a bit before Jacob stood before all of them, shaking. He stuttered and slurred his words as he spoke. "Hello Adriana's parents...it is such an honor to meet you. I sincerely apologize for barging into your home last night, especially alone with your daughter and spending the night, wearing your clothing, and scarfing down your food this morning." he told. "It's fine. We have yet to trust you but based on your thorough background check, you are someone that we can begin to trust." the booming voice of Adriana's father chimed in Jacob's ears. "Let us introduce ourselves. My name is Catherine. I am the wife of the man you see before you and Adriana's mother." (C)

"I am Bruce. The husband of Catherine and father of Adriana." (B)

"My name is Jac-." (J)

"Jacob Emerson. Orphan until your older brother, Marcus Emerson, took you in. He was quite the abuser and his girlfriend was quite the one for let's just say open relationships. You graduated from the Pratt Institute majoring in architecture and urban design. Your GPA in high school was always 3.8 and you graduated from college with a 3.9. You work at Cafe' De L'amour completeing multiple jobs at once;  mainly the managerial position. The list goes on. Your are quite the respectable man." (B)

"T-thank you.." Jacob stuttered, in shock as his cheeks flustered. Adriana smiled and wrapped her arms around her parenst once again before they walked to the elevator to get to their room. Immediately, she pulled him closer into her grasp. "I'll give you a ride home." the words scrolled onto the wall. 

"Just prepare yourself to be shocked at where I live. It's a poor neighborhood...." he replied. Adriana just shrugged and strunted towards the door.
