A day with dad

I let my dad in and say

" Make yourself at home"

" Thanks," He says in reply and sits on my couch. Then Asta shouts squawking. " I see you have a bird.. what's his name?"

" Asta!"

" Cute"

"thanks"

" Ashe let's stop this awkwardness between us. How about I take you somewhere, the park? A theme park? You used to love the theme park when you were little."

" I am a bit hungry..."

" Great let's go to a restaurant I know a great place around here and I'm sure you'll love the food there"

I follow him out the door and into his car, its really small, a 2 seater, I guess my dad is broke, just like me.

When we reach the restaurant I immediately recognize the place. It's the cafe where John and I met! Somehow I always find a way to come back here. We sit down at a table and order our food, I get a mac and cheese and my dad gets soup. Maybe he's dieting, who knows and why do I even care. Our food arrives and when everything seems to be going fine, John arrives. He's with his friends, he sees me and I try to ignore him but it doesn't work because he walks right over to our table.

" Hey, Ashe!" He says

"Hi," I say nervously

"This must be your dad am I right?" I nod " Hi Mr. Peter nice to meet you" He gives my dad a warm smile which my dad doesnt return back.

" Ashe whos this man," He says angrily. Before I can answer John replies.

" I'm Ashe's boyfriend John!" Suddenly my dad has his arm around Johns's neck, basically choking John. I run over and pull them apart.

"STOP!" I say and my dad lets go, I check if Johns ok then turn to my dad. " Dad what the hell are you doing!!???"

" No one dates my daughter," He says sounding like a monster.

" Sure, I have at least dated 6 boys or maybe more I don't remember... so what are you gonna do about it huh??"

He gives me an annoyed look and then walks away. I guess some people never change.
