At night...

I was suddenly woken up by someone's voice. I woke up and saw an elderly woman calling me.

: Era mam, sir asked me to wake you up for dinner. All are waiting for you..

Era: You know English?

: Yes mam, A little bit (awkwardly smiling)

Era: Oh I see..By the way I can speak France language so you can feel free to talk with me in your own language.

: Thank you so much mam. I am the senior chef and servant here so I can speak a little bit English.

Era: You can call me Era. I am look like your daughter.

: Sorry mam, sir asked me to call everyone's name with respect specially you.

Era: Specially me?

: Umm nothing.. Sorry mam. I have to go now.

Era: No wait..may I know your name?

: It's Eloise. Thank you mam..

The elderly woman left. It seems everyone is very afraid of Yiran.

I don't know when I fell asleep while reading a novel. My eyes are still sleepy. I quickly got up, freshened up, and went downstairs and sat at the dining table. Everyone was already sitting there. Ms. Eloise was serving everyone food.

Everyone was eating very quietly. But I couldn't eat. I felt a strange discomfort. Everyone is eating so quietly. When my parents sit down to eat at our house, they talk a lot. Why is it so quiet here?

Suddenly, Dad said...

Dad: Yiran?

Yiran: Yes, Dad.

Dad: Can You get your sister admitted to your university?

WHAT!! No way. I don't want to repeat that story again.

Yiran: Why in my university?

Dad: Because she's new here. You can take care of her in your university. You can help her if she needs anything.

Era: But Dad, I don't want to study there. And you came here for business, where did this admission thing come from?

Dad: You will complete your graduation from here for now.

Era: But I don't want to study at that university...

Dad: You will study there for now.

Then everyone started eating again as usual. Yiran looks at me once. I felt shiver in his gaze. I remember that day's incident. Tears started coming to my eyes again.

To normalize the situation, I said again...

Era: Dad, I'll meet Alain tomorrow.

Are you guys Wondering how I'm talking about Alain so normally? Usually kids feel afraid to admit their relationship in front of their parents. But my case is little bit different. My mom and dad know about Alain. My parents found out about our relationship a year into our relationship. Mom didn't say anything more after knowing about it. But I don't know why Dad kept avoiding the matter. Dad wasn't happy with our relationship.

With a little annoyance, he said...

Dad: Focus on your studies now. You can meet him later too.

I didn't say anything else and went to my room after eating.

Will I really able to see him??
