Freedy's surprising attitude

Phoebe had just finished helping Alicia with the housework. The woman rested on the side porch, sitting relaxed while looking at the garden view near the fish pond.

"Ehm..."

Phoebe looked back when she heard a male voice. She was surprised, then immediately got up from the chair when she saw that it was her future father-in-law, Freedy.

"Dad," said Phoebe with a little smile.

"Why is it so quiet? Where's Alicia?" Freedy asked while glancing around.

"She's in the shower, Dad..we just finished cleaning up together," explained Phoebe with a slight bow of her head, showing respect.

Freedy nodded his head, then immediately sat down in a chair.

Phoebe was curious about Freedy's attitude because he didn't usually come when Travis wasn't home. She was sure that her future in-laws knew that his son was not at home because they had spoken on the phone earlier.

"We have to talk," Freedy said with a serious expression.
