Alberto’s Worriness
“Ah! Whatever my decision is, I have to go to Doctor Vega’s room immediately.”
“I must tell her. Then, we’ll see her reaction.”
Alberto stood up immediately. Then, he walked out of the bathroom and towards Doctor Vega’s room.
Along the way, Alberto’s face looked crumpled. Occasionally, he scratched his head, which was not itchy because he felt dizzy.
“Ah! I’m so dizzy!” Alberto complained to himself.
After Alberto arrived in front of Doctor Vega’s room, he immediately knocked on the door and opened the door. Then he entered Doctor Vega’s room.
Seeing Alberto’s messy appearance, Doctor Vega immediately frowned and asked. “What’s wrong?”
She was confused by Alberto’s appearance because he doesn’t usually look so messy. He always looks neat, fragrant, and handsome.
“Shit!” Alberto complained.
“What’s wrong, Honey? You look so messy and crumpled.”
“Why do you come into my room, and suddenly you get mad at me now? As I remember, you just picked up the call from your parents. So, what’s wrong?”
“You know what?”
“What?” asked Vega curiously.
“My mother asked you to go to my parents’ house.” Alberto complained.
“Then, why?” asked Vega in confusion.
“Yeah. Indeed, do you want to go there? No, right?” asked Alberto. He was sure that Vega wouldn’t want to go there.
“How about if I want to go there?” asked Vega. For Alberto, it looked like Vega gave the code that she wanted to go to the house of Alberto’s parents.
Alberto’s eyes lit up as he was happy to hear Vega’s words. He immediately confirmed again that Vega wanted to go there.
“Seriously? Do you want to go there?”
“Yes, I want.” Vega said excitedly.
“I’ve always been curious. When will I meet your parents?” Vega had always been curious about that.
“But I don’t feel comfortable asking about that. I’m a woman.”
“So, how can I ask you that? That’s so impossible!All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
“Yes, that’s true.” Alberto understood Vega’s feelings.
“So, when can you come to my parents’ house?” Alberto asked curiously.
“After work. What do you think?” asked Vega.
“Great!” Alberto commented.
“You don’t work or intern at that time, right?” Vega confirmed, as she was afraid Alberto must work or intern.
“Yeah, I don’t.” Alberto shook his head.
“Well! Let’s go there first before I drop you off at your home!” Vega decided.
“Okay.” They continued their work until, when it was time to go home, Vega immediately invited Alberto to go to his parents’ house. “Alberto, let’s go to your parents’ house!”
“Let’s go!” Alberto accepted Vega’s invitation, and they went straight to the car park. After they arrived at the car park, they looked for Vega’s car.
Vega pressed the button, and they opened the car door. Then, they got into the car and put on their seatbelts. They closed the door.
Before starting the journey, Vega asked. “Are you ready?”
“Yes.”
“Please tell me the directions to your parents’ house!” Vega asked.
“Okay!” Vega started driving the car to Alberto’s parents’ house. She followed the directions from Alberto.

During the trip, Alberto chose to remain silent except when he had to say important things or gave directions to his house. He saw the scenery that existed during the trip.
His heart was pounding erratically. He was very afraid and worried that their relationship was not approved by his parents.
At a red light, Vega looked at Alberto secretly. At that moment, she saw Alberto’s face turn pale.
She immediately held Alberto’s right hand and felt Alberto’s cold hand as cold as ice.
She wanted to know why. So, she asked. “What’s wrong, Alberto?”
Alberto felt that his right hand was being held by someone. Because of that, he immediately turned his head and found Vega holding his right hand.
At that moment, he realized that he was being paid attention to by Vega. Because of that, he immediately pulled his arm and hid his right hand in his trouser pocket.
He also immediately shook his head and answered Vega’s question quickly. “It’s okay.”
Vega could still hear Alberto’s breath.
“Come on! What’s wrong?” She tried to persuade Alberto to talk.
“Your hands are really cold.” Vega commented.
“Tell me, please!” asked Vega.
“I’m so worried,” complained Alberto.
“Worried? Why?” Vega was confused by Alberto’s anxiety.
“I wonder how they will react to you.” He asked.
“Yeah, that’s called curiosity. Not worry.” Vega commented.
“Yeah, but I’m also worried. I’m just scared, Vega.”
“Indeed, I should be the one who is worried. Not you!” commented Vega.
“But, look! I’m fine, and instead you’re worried. So, why should you be worried?” asked Vega.
“We’ll only meet with your parents today. Nothing more,” said Vega.
“Yeah, but I’m just scared.” Alberto felt scared.
“Why are you afraid?” Vega provoked Alberto to speak.
“I’m afraid our relationship won’t be approved.” At that moment, Alberto was able to express his anxiety and fear.
“Indeed, why can’t our relationship be approved?” Vega deliberately asked something like that so that Alberto would talk a lot and he could understand Alberto’s feelings of fear.
“I don’t know. I’m just scared!”
“It’s the first time I bring a woman to my parents. So, I just feel weird and scared.”
Alberto didn’t really understand his feelings of fear. He only understood that; he was afraid that his relationship wouldn’t be approved and Vega would be rejected. However, he doesn’t know about the details.
“So weird!” Vega commented while she shook her head, as she found Alberto strange.
“I should be the one who is afraid of not being accepted by your family. Not you!” Vega said.
“Indeed, what type of son-in-law or daughter-in-law do your parents want?” Vega was curious about the type of daughter-in-law or son-in-law that Alberto’s parents wanted.
“High type.” Alberto answered it shortly.
“What do you mean? I don’t understand.” Vega didn’t understand what Alberto meant.
