Insults

Das was sitting on the sofa, glancing around. He looked nervous.

He took out his phone and pretended to be busy with something. He could feel someone watching him.

It was Elena's father, Lucas. He was sitting on the sofa in front of Das and glaring at Das.

'Why is he looking at me like that?' This would be Das' 4th visit to Elena's house, and he had met Elena's parents all the time.

"Hey, you," Lucas called out.

Das looked at Lucas and gulped down. "Yes?"

"You kind of piss me off for some reason."

"..."

'You are pissing me off too.'

"Do you know, we had a meeting today, but I lied to my wife and stayed home." He glared at Das and asked, "Do you know why?"

"Because I was coming here?"

"Exactly," He got up and walked into the kitchen. "There was no way I am letting some boy come over when my daughter is alone at my house."

"But I am the son of your friends."
