I don't know about you,
But me-
I want to be cared for.

.Skai.
"Zion?"
"Yeah Zion, the one Tess told you about. Speaking of that, I don't want to keep him waiting" I reply walking away from them.
It's now or never. Ever hesitantly, I pull the door open, revealing a set of brown eyes and a face I was beginning to get used to.
"Hey," my voice comes out more like a mere whisper. He steps forward his head dropping a little, lips landing just below my ear.
"Nice to see you again, Ms Skai" he whispers, his baritone voice giving a bit of a vibration.
I clear my throat. "My parent's- they are here" I explain receiving a nod from him.
He walks further into our home, looking very confident and smart as if he had been here before. I take note of his attire which was still the usual attire- a formal wear.
"You know you don't have to look that much, it'll seem like you've never been here before."
"I haven't."
"I know that, but now my parents and-"
"Ooh who do we have here- you must be her boyfriend" my mum pauses assessing him, he stares intently at her and then to my father before speaking.
"I'm Zion, your daughter's fiancé."
Oh no.

"Honey, why didn't you tell me sooner?" my mum questions with a soft look. I was scared that she won't be happy with the decision I took, but it took a quite different turn.
"I don't know- I mean I guess I wasn't ready to be officially seen as engaged and I didn't know what you'd think about it"
"Skai, you know we would always support any decision you take" my dad concurs and I nod in return.
"Don't you trust us?"
"I do, I really do. It's just that-" I feel really bad for lying to them, but I'll feel even worse if I said the truth right now.
"Don't worry, all I want is for you to be happy and open up to us. I know we haven't be there for you the most we can, but we are trying to make amends- we need your support the most."
I hold her tightly, my arms going around her torso. I didn't want them to feel like I didn't need them, in fact it was the opposite. I might have made that mistake in the past but not again.
"I love you both."
"We love you more."
Pulling away from her, a false smile finds its way to my face in order to make seem as believable as possible.
"So.. what do you think of him?"
My dad begins "He seems okay- at least presentable and well done," he finishes, my mum nodding in affirmation. I'm on the right track.
