Chapter 6 Meeting the banks

Hazel's pov

I searched for the banks online and found out that they are extremely traditional and conservative to the core

it's five-thirty already, I took my bath and wore extremely short shorts that end just below my butt and a crop top, I wore that to display the tattoos on my lap and my belly just beside my navel

after getting dressed I sat down for an extra thirty minutes

before checking myself and going out

I got to the restaurant around seven twenty, I knew dad was going to spit out fire, but when have I ever cared

I exhaled loudly and walked in, my dad and uncle were eating with five other people on a table

I approached them and noticed that one of them was the lovesick dude

along with him was his parents, fuck he even brought his grandparents

are we holding the wedding today!

and what's up with their dressing, they look like clowns

I joined their table and all eyes were fixed on me

Mr. Banks and his son were drooling while Mrs banks and the oldies had a displeased look on their faces

dad shot me a cold look while uncle shook his head helplessly

I sat down without being invited

why is she dressed like this questioned Mrs banks

before anyone of us could reply the waitress come to ask for what I wanted to eat

I told her I wasn't hungry and requested an Ashtray

they all looked at me stupefied but I couldn't care less

she came with an Ashtray and I started smoking

making sure to exhale the smoke on old Mrs banks face

naughty me, I never knew she had asthma, she started coughing profusely

oh am so sorry granny

Mr banks: no it's fine, she will be ok

we are here to seek your hand in marriage and we hope you will be willing to follow our rules after marriage

sure uncle as long as being allowed to carry out my hobbies

Mr banks: and what are your hobbies child?

my hobbies are shooting and boxing

what do you mean by shooting are you trying to scare them"dad questioned

am not trying to scare them I replied showing them the tip of the gun in my bag

I can sense the fact that they were now scared, but I needed to add oil to the fire

uncle am pretty sure you have enough maids for me practice my shooting on

and you hubby, I can always practice my boxing skills on you

and I promise to always foot the hospital bill

I saw him shivered and scratched his head, I knew he was scared

I almost chuckled cause he looked kinda cute

I exhaled another round of smoke and old Mrs banks coughed profusely again, I knew she was exaggerating this time

but I said nothing

her family seems to have gotten the message as they all stood up to leave using old Mrs bank's health as an excuse

they promised to meet up some other time but. we all know that was a lie

after they left dad turned to me and started shouting at me did you see that frank? they just left, you just disgraced me, when have you ever made me happy or proud of you?

how could he say something like that, now am angry

when have you ever made me happy as well? all you care about is screwing women all over the place

do have any idea how much it hurts to keep seeing you like that

forget it, you don't care anyway

since we are all making ourselves unhappy, I guess I needed to do this

I took my bag and walked out
