Chapter Eighty-one
Elena pov
For the rest of the evening, we spent time chatting and also watching films, while Mac dad stayed in the room all through.
I could still relieve the moment he tasted the pasta I had made specially for him. The look on his face was absolutely hilarious.
“Alright you two, get yourself ready, we are having dinner at the restaurant” We both turned to see Mac dad standing a few meters away from us, with his hands folded.
“But dad!”
“No buts Mac, get your lazy ass off that sheet and go in there get yourself some good clothing while we head out.” I pulled Mac from the couch as he kept on whining.
“I will be back in a minute” He said and pecked my cheeks, while he headed up the stairs to change.
“You know he likes you right?” I turned to see Mac dad sitting graciously on the couch and staring at the television like he hadn’t been the one that talked.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
“Look, I am pretty sure that you know of his past records. I am begging you not to leave. You seem to be much of an influence to him and I will be grateful for that” The genuineness of his father’s tone melted my heart.
Mac’s father was one hell of a man who could still make a woman get their knees weak. I began to see where Mac got his awesome features from.
“Am back!….. Hold up a sec….. What’s going on here, what are you two discussing about” Mac came down the stairs looking all fly in his usual black outfit.
“Oh nothing son, we were only talking about your childhood experience” I turned to see Mac eyes growing wide.
“Especially that part where you pooped on the dog’s head thinking it was a poop already” I laughed out loud and noticed the slight embarrassment on Mac’s face.
“Dad, we both know that this isn’t cool” His father stood up from the couch and picked up his keys and said;
“Son, you know I love you and what’s the fun of this moment when I know I can only see you once in a while” His tone was sad and I could clearly understand that this was the man that wished to have spent a lot of time with his son.
“It’s okay with the emotional moments dad, I think we have dinner” He smiled and turned to look at me, throwing a one time wink at me and then walking out of the house.
“He is going to be the death of me” Mac commented, switching off the lights.
“I think I love him already,” I replied.

I had hoped that dinner would go down so well, but I was wrong. All through the dinner my dad kept on taunting my ass out and for some reason, Elena found this quite funny.
“So tell me Elena, hope you are really teaching this dude some maths and other subjects” Elena looked at me for a moment and smiled saying;
“We are dating and he is going to have to deal with having a nerd like me around” I smiled at that.
Elena and I both had a mutual understanding and that is one that was to learn to understand our flaws and grow through them.
While we were still eating and having our fun moment, I sighted a familiar face walking past us and the entire energy at the table changed.
“Well, well, well, look who we have here. Mr. Albert ” He didn’t seem to be the type that would change and judging by the minions around him, it was crystal clear that he was expanding his gangsterism.
“What do you want Liam?” I replied right before my dad could speak.
“Oh Nothing, just here to get something…. Oh look! I thought you were dead! Or am I seeing a ghost” He said, referring to Elena and this made me stand up on my feet.
“Stay away from her” I noticed how uncomfortable Elena had become.
“Boy aren’t you becoming a simp” I folded my arms and ready to go fight it out with him, when I was stopped by my dad, who stood up and faced Liam.
“Listen here kid, the only reason why I am going to let this slide is because you actually suck and people like you don’t easily get a life in future, only staying in the hood….. The only time you would be better than my son is probably in your next fucking life, do you better stay away from my son and go do something better with your life” Every line was a savage and the look on Liam face, showed that he didn’t like it at all.
“Oh shut the fuck old man…..”That statement earned Liam a huge slap as everyone gasped, including myself.
Liam’s minions want to start a fight but Liam stopped them for reasons best known to him.
“I may love to speak profanities, but I am not a kid like you so don’t you dare ever talk to me in that manner.” Dad said to Liam in a more serious tune, Liam simply cleaned up his cheeks.
“You know what…. I need you to understand that your son is going to pay for your sin. I would not forget this in a hurry” He finished speaking and turned to his minions, indicating that they were leaving.
I know how much Liam hates me already because of what I did to him unknowingly and with these clap he just earned from dad because of me I know he wouldn’t let it slide easily and I also don’t give a fuck about that right now.
While he was gone, dad sat back in his seat and adjusted his t-shirt’s collar and stared back at me, who was looking at him.
“What? You didn’t think imma was just going to stand there and watch you beat him all up? Where is the entertainment? I wanted it to be a father son moment” Again, this got Elena laughing out hard and myself smiling also.
There was a reason I didn’t detest this man and that was because of his persona
