Revealing It All

After her friends left for the evening Emma found herself in the hot seat. Ryan and Austin Jr. were glad to have the opportunity to grill their baby sister for the truth about Ethan.

“So, you and Ethan are simply friends?” Austin asked.

“Yes, inquiring minds would like to know,” Ryan announced.

“You two are so annoying,” Emma pointed out making her parents giggle.

“He is nice and cares a lot about you. He is quite respectful, articulate, and down to earth. I like him,” Austin Sr. admitted making Emma smile from ear to ear.

“Come on Dad. You don’t know his intentions,” Austin Jr. said sternly.

Ryan laughed at his older brother being protective, recalling how Austin Jr. played the field in college.

“Well, thank you Dad for seeing Ethan the way I see him,” Emma said, hugging her dad.

“Ethan and I are a bit more than friends. He is my boyfriend,” Emma said watching the reaction of her brothers and fathers.

“I knew it,” Ryan confessed.
