I can hear your thoughts

Sarah decided to bring her boyfriend home to meet her parents.

"You are going to love them I promise," Sarah said.
"I am not worried about that," her boyfriend said. "I hope they like/love me."
Sarah replied " do not worry about that, they will love you I promise."

Sarah and her boyfriend left there apartment and went to her parents house to eat dinner.

"Ding Dong,"! The doorbell sung
"Who is it", Sarah's mother said.
"It's Sarah", she said.

Her mom opened the door and gave her a big hug.

"Welcome home baby girl," her mom said with a smile.
"Thanks mom, this is my boyfriend James," she said.
"Well hello James, nice to finally meet you," her mother said. "Come on in, it is a little chilly outside."

James and Sarah walks in the house, puts their coats in the closet and sits on the couch right beside each other. Sarah's father walks in the room with a grin.

"My daughter is finally home," her father said giving her a big hug.
"Hey dad, this is James," she said. "My boyfriend."

James looked nervous and his palms and neck started to sweat. He felt butterflies in his stomach. Sarah looked at James, grabbed his hand and held it tight.

"Hello sir, nice to meet you," James said.
"Nice to meet you son," her father said gripping his hand really hard."

Sarah's father walked in the kitchen.

"Do you want to help me on the kitchen James," he said.
"Yes sir, that would be nice,"James said.

Sarah grabbed him and said, "don't worry, he won't bite."
"Thanks for letting me know", he said while he was walking away laughing.

James walked in the kitchen while Sarah's father grabbed a knife and started sharpening it. James look startled. He was scared that he would use this on him.

"Hey Mr.Lawrence, what are you doing," James said.
"Just finishing up the dinner," her father said. "Can you take these rolls and stuff to the table. Tell Sarah and her mom dinner is ready."

James walked out the room and told Sarah and her mom to go to the table. They set everything up, said their prayer, and started to eat.

Sarah's father begin to ask James questions.

"So what are your plans to do in life James," her dad said with a firm voice. "I do not want my daughter with a non achieving guy that will depend on her, that's why I am asking."
"Well sir, I plan to start my own business, and I am in sorts journalism and broadcasting," James said.
Sarah implied, "Yeah dad, he is really thriving in journalism. I should bring one of his articles to show you so you can see how good he is."
"Alright, I want to see your work", her dad replied.

Sarah started smiling.
"He really likes you", she whispered to James.
"How do you know," James said.
"Trust me, I know," she said.

The dinner went on and their were laughs and serious conversing with the father and the boyfriend.
James left the house to go home and Sarah stayed behind.

"Dad, you liked him didn't you," Sarah said.
"I did not say that," he said.
"I know you do dad, I can read your mined," she said. " o was really surprised because normally you do not like anybody, not even our dog."
"Yes I did like him, but that does not mean he isn't gonna be on lockdown by me," he said.

As long as we have your approval we will be alright.
