???'s POV
"Urgh, what time is it?" I thought as I was opening my eyes because of the sunlight hitting my face. I open my eyes and check my phone. "7:00am huh? Class doesn't start until 9:30am. I guess I should start preparing to go, traffic will most likely be a pain in the ass anyways." I get up from my bed and go directly into the bathroom to take a shower. After that it was off to the living room where I met with my mom and dad having breakfast.
"Hey there son! Are you ready to go?" Asked my Dad who was already dressed for work.
"Yeah dad, just let me pack my lunch first."
As I was packing my lunch my mom jokingly asks me: "You know, most teens your age just buy their food in school, why do you still want me to cook you up something?"
I responded: "Mom we've been over this, it's because I looooooooooove your cooking!" I reply dramatically to my mother. "And I need money as always." I added quickly.
We all share a laugh and then me and my dad tell my mom that we'll be on our way.
*Time skip to when they're at the car*
"Oh, by the way son, you're driving." my dad tells me as he tosses me the car keys.
"Sweet! Are you taking the train?" I respond to my dad as I catch the car keys
"No! I need the car to go to work, you know this." As my dad tells me
"Alright, alright."
*We get in the car*
While driving to the station I suddenly thought of something I could ask my dad
"Hey dad, I know I haven't asked this to you or mom, but how exactly did I get my name?"
"Well then Mr. Tyrone Oscar Lopez. I'll tell you-" my dad tried to reply cornily.
"Dad...... can you not?" I interrupt him.
"Fine, fine. Well. To be honest I came up with Tyrone and your mother came up with Oscar... Tyrone was a name I heard back in a show I loved, where the main character told "himself" that the one name he wished his name would've been, it would've been Tyrone."
"Soooo...... I was named after a character?" I ask after my father tells me that story of my name.
"Yes son, you were." answered my dad as "cool" as he can
"....... Dad, you're weird."
"I know, that's what makes me unique though."
I thought about what he said for a moment.... And holy crap he was right.
"...Wow..... I never thought of it that way... But you're right. Has anyone ever told you that you were smart?" As I point out my realization to my dad
"Of course! I tell myself that every day." He jokes.
"Yeah right." I said as we both shared a light chuckle
