"That man is your Dad?" Rex asks, equally looking shocked like I am.
"We are busted."
"Maybe not." He was out talking to Dad before I know it. I get down also.
"So you're the guy my daughter is dating? We finally meet at last. Why didn't you come pick her from the house instead of hiding here?"
"N--Nothing. It was her idea—"
"Why did you follow me?" I ask, feeling a little angry. "You had that subtle blushing look on your face when you said your friends were coming to pick you up. I suspected that it was him right away."
"But you should not have followed me or shown yourself." I am so embarrassed and wishing to be swallowed by the earth. I never planned for them to meet at all let alone meet like this.
Why does nothing ever goes the way I plan?
He totally ignores me and asks Rex, "Your name is Rex right?"
Rex seems nervous as he replies "Yes." Dad eyes him from head to toe, nodding in what I am hopefully guessing to be satisfaction.
