We've been on the road for the past 20 mins. Diego came for us with some gas and now we are trailing him in Mr. Hansen's car, I am getting all ditsy and anxious, haven't been home in years. We pull up and excitement can't qualify how i'm feeling.
Forgetting myself, I press the horn of the car so bad and jump out. Granny comes running out the exact same minute and I rush towards her and hug her. We squeal and gush over each other like teenagers for like some seconds then grandpa walks out.
I rush to hug him, taking grandma with me and we stand there in a group hug for soo long until we hear throat clearing and i'm reminded that Mr. Hansen was there. It's time for introductions.'Paa, Maa this is Mr. Edward Hansen, my boss . Mr Hansen my grandparents , Jane and Jerry Hill.'
' Nice to meet you, Mr. Hill, Mrs Hill ' Mr. Hansen says acknowledging Paa and Maa.
He was being soo polite ,charming and all that and i'm tempted to laugh.
' Poppycock, you can call us Jerry and Jane ' Maa says.
Mr. Hanson's smile widens and he responds
'Then I suggest you call me Eddie as well' Soo charming, cue eye roll.
' Soo polite and charming, I like that ' Grandma says and I want to facepalm. Is she seriously flirting with Mr. Hansen?Smh. Grandpa clears his throat and Granny and I burst into laughter.
' Well we are glad to have you in our home and I presume you will be staying the entire weekend ' Grandpa says in his finality voice that would make most men agree with him but not Mr. Hansen.
'Actually we were thinking we are just staying the night '
'Don't you like my home? ' Grandpa asks with his brows raised.
' It's lovely but we really have to leave in the morning besides we have only one set of clothes to change into. ' Mr. Hansen says
' That can easily be taken care off. So it's final you will leave on Monday '
Mr. Hansen looks at me for help and I shrug at him a shy smile on my face, I kinda want to stay so he's alone in this argument. Grandma just smiles at me.
'Monday, it is ' Mr. Hansen says breathing a sigh of defeat. I'm told to escort Mr. Hansen to his room which is in fact Elliot's room, he left a few months ago to college. He's one of those smarty pants so he's in a medical school in Boston.
We walk to Elliot's room, where Mr. Hansen is to be sleeping , in silence. I search for something to say, anything at least but nothing comes until we get to Elliot's room.
' So what do you think? ' I ask soo nervously, I don't know why but I really want him to be impressed by my home, my family.
'About what? ' he asks so absentmindedly that I want to facepalm.
' About my family, my home? '
' It's beautiful and your grandma is soo lovely, your grandpa though, very intimidating ' he says whiles chuckling. I find myself smiling pleased.
I open the door to Elliot's room. It's pretty much the same as it looked 5 years ago.
' It looks homey enough, I have to make myself comfortable now since i'm going to here for 3 days ' Mr. Hansen said looking at me with "a it's all your fault" look.
' Okay i'm sorry , but I've not seen my family in 5 years, have a heart. Put yourself in my position ' I start to ramble ,yep nervous.
Mr. Hansen takes a deep breath and just says
' Whatever ' he goes to sit on the bed and raises his head to me looking at me expectantly .
