"Oh that was so lovely" Mom said to Dad.

Everyone cheered and continued to enjoy their food with their parents who came to visit the school for family day.

I walked to a nearby pavilion where my mom and dad were asking me to come to for a few pictures. The photogropher used his hands to tell is to move left and my dad asked him, "Just here?"

The photographer nodded his head and the three of us posed for the picture.

"Oh, by the way, I have a new girlfriend" I spoke in between the little 'photoshoot'.

"Oh!" My dad said.

"Yeah"

"Well, I never wanted to say anything, but I always thought that Audrey was a little self-absorbed. A fake smile, kind of a kiss-up"

Well I'm glad he felt that way cos I sure felt the same way.

"Do we know your new girlfriend?" Mom asked politely while we continued to smile for the picture.

"Well sort o-" I saw Valerie walking at the distance talking to Emma. This was the perfect time for her to meet the fam.

"Val!" I yelled out her name.

Valerie quickly turned ber head towards me and walked closer.

"Huh?" Mom reacted.

After taking 1 last picture, for now, I walked a little towards Valerie

"I wanna introduce you to my parents"

"Zach"

"This is Valerie. From the isle of the lost" I introduced

"Mm-" My mom stuttered.

"My girlfriend"

"Hi" Mom finally said what felt like ages.

Valerie politely replied back with a simple yet quick, "Hi" as well.

"I was thinking maybe she can join us for lunch"

"Of... course. Any friend of Zach's-"

"Um, I actually came with my friends"

"Well, you should invite them. Because the more the merrier!" I said.

"Yeah, I'll go grab them" Val agreed.

"Uh, how about a game of croquet before lunch?" My dad asked Valerie.

"Huh? Of course" She looked at Dad.

"Game on" I asked Dad

"Game on" Dad replied back.

"Hae you ever played before?" I asked Val.

"No"

"No? you will be fine"
