ok, don't argue about it. dave had asked a lot for this to happen, you know? meeting the mother of his incredible girlfriend that he loved so much would not be an easy or comfortable task, he was warned about that a few times. every time.

but damn day he kept insisting! because he couldn't just put his stubbornness aside and listen to his girlfriend just this once, could he?

yes, he was willing to pretend he was a good christian boyfriend, ignore the fact that he was jewish. he was also willing to go through questions that required a lot of his quick thinking, and all because his girlfriend's mother was a non-conservative, rigid and at his girl's words, crazy.

but it was kind of very difficult to put the nervousness aside, but he endured it with his usual politeness. "oh, i don't drink soda because the carbonation scares me, but thank you very much, ma'am." he replied when his girlfriend's mother offered him a soda, receiving a dirty look before the older woman went to the kitchen for a few moments and left the two teenagers alone on the living room sofa. when he was sure it was safe to speak;

"she hates me."
