maybe next time when we actually do meet, it'll be easier

over 2 weeks back, the alpha boy asked me to join his family for dinner yesterday. he wasn't supposed to tell me that it was his mom's birthday but he did anyway. and for 2 weeks, i stressed over what i should get her 'coz despite what he says, i really can't just go empty handed now can i?

anyhow late last week, due to some reservations issue, dinner plans was called off. and then switched at the last minute to sunday night where once again i was invited. but then 'coz no one could decide on the venue and where in the end they settled on a place on the other side of town from where i was, the alpha boy decided that i should just meet 'em another time.

i'm hoping this was just a practice. that next time i do actually meet his family, i would be calm, cool and collected. i mean i like to think that generally parentals like me. but it's still the first time i would be seeing parents as their son's girlfriend. that's kinda stressful.
