Acceptance

To break the silence, Alondra began, "Sorry, I don't know how to greet you. So....I am glad to meet you..."

"You say you don't know us?", The old man said with a harsh voice.

"I didn't mean that... what I meant was, I don't know how to address you. I...", Alondra rushed to correct her words.

"You are indeed Quick witted.", The old man added.

"I am sorry If i offended.", Alondra.

"you idiotic old man, why are you scaring her. You are sure her to give them the blessings that they needed." The lady from before interrupted.

"Can't I...", The old man stopped as she gave a look to him.

"What do you want to do to my wife. If you want to do or play do that with your wife, Mr. Shone. Didn't Mrs. Shone said to give your blessings. Hurry up.", Voice of Sylas came from the back.

Alondra was eager to turn around to look at him and ask her doubts. but stopped herself as it will be a disrespect for the elders who are sitting there.

"We are not scaring her. we were just talking. And is this how you talk to your father. Where were your manners Sylas. this is not how we brought you up.", The old lady finished in one go.

Alondra got one thing clear from their conversation. That the couple in front of her are her future in- laws, that is Parents of Sylas..... And she is clear about one thing, she somehow messed it.

As Alondra was lost in her own thoughts, Sylas was still in argument with his parents, "She is already scared of what happened with her. And you guys as the king and queen of Paradise country began to interrogate her instead of meeting her as the in laws...

"Sylas, We were just talking. you don't have to take it too serious.", Charles Shone, father of Sylas said as to calm Sylas.

"Yes, Sylas. We believe in you and your decisions. Have we ever said NO to your request. We were really just try to talk and make her feel comfortable. And We need time to think of who she resemble and where have we got some impression of her before. We felt like we already meet her.... That is why. Nothing much." Margret Ragin, mother of Sylas, the Mrs. Shone said as she went near Alondra and wrapped around her.
