"Son, you must think of getting married"
"It's not even important"
"Vernon, you have to think about your future. I am growing old. When I'll not be here, who's going to take care of you?"
"Them"
Mr. Davis humphed.
"I'm not letting you keep those young ladies in my house forever"
"They serve me, dad"
"Serve you what?” Mr. Davis sighed, “Son, I’m not ready to see you getting spoiled anymore.”
"Da--"
"I no more allow you to have all these nasty luxuries. You need to get a good wife. I'm throwing a traditional ball next week, and that is my final decision."
"Dad, I'm just 24! I don't want to get married so young"
"Oh? Son, please grow up inside. You're already considered as an eligible man. You have to handle your responsibilities. You cannot continue to fool around with a bunch of women at this age.”
“Come on. I’m just exploring the female society. They all are such elegant young women."
"Then go marry one."
"Oh hell no! They're not even my type."
"They ain’t your pets, are they?"
"I don’t recall mentioning it even once."
"Your actions speak louder than your words, you know?”
"Oh, they do?" Vernon wiggled his eyebrows at his dad.
"Having a serious discussion is just totally useless at your presence."
“Glad you realized so,” Vernon faked a smile.
