Mom, what are you doing over there, Patrick asked when he noticed his mom standing weirdly at the door, nothing, I'm just stretching, she giggled weirdly, and immediately began stretching. Weren't supposed to go for some work trip mom, he sighed and asked after noticing what she was trying to do, oh my boss decided to give me the weekend off, he's a little bit older than me, so he must understand that an old woman like me needs some rest, she stood with her arms folded, and a little pout nodding to herself. Well, luckily for you mom you don't look your age, and you don't act you age either, he continued as he walked over to her, I already know she has a date with Steven, I know, she replied sadly while moving over, Patrick opened the door to see a car waiting out front.
Patrick furrowed his brows when he realized what his mom said, were you watching us, he let out confused, Laura smiled at him softly. You ran right by me without even noticing you know, I wasn't hiding, Patrick hung his head low, praying that his mom wouldn't figure out what was going on, you're gonna be okay honey, everything's gonna be fine. Laura enveloped him in a warm hug, Patrick melted into the hug, clutching her shirt tight, trying to fight back the tears that threatened to roll down his face.
When he let go and turned his attention back outside, he took another bullet to his heart. He saw Penelope hugging Steven tightly as her legs left the ground and he spun her around, earning excited happy screams from her. His mom looked at him with pity in her eyes as all he could do was turn heel go to his room.
After the movie, they both headed over to Steven's condo for dinner. Welcome home young master, Ms Penelope, Clarisa bowed softly upon their arrival, Penelope was too shocked to reply, her eyes widened along with her mouth that already hung open from the two storey building dark ash and white, with gold lighting. She realized the driver was Stevens Chauffeur as they drove into the gate and parked in the open roofed garage. Hi Clarisa, I told you to stop doing that, he smiled, which resulted in a nod from his maid which then stepped to the side. Steven grabbed Penelope's hand and led her inside, woah, Penelope let out softly, the condo was a modern design, white walls, black coffee table, ash burgundy furniture, expensive chandeliers, curvy stairs, rich artworks scattered on different walls, which caught her eye. Hi dear, wow you're even more beautiful than Steven described you, the rich scented woman said and embraced her, yes very beautiful, good choice son, his father turned to him and said, which made him blush. The lady was dressed in a white lace silk ruffle handed top, and a flowy silk skirt, along with white heels, her husband was dressed in off white baggy trousers, a black shirt, two buttons undone to show off his toned chest, and the sleeves rolled up a bit to show off his veiny arms, with black glossy shoes and a smart watch on. Penelope unconsciously adjusted her clothes feeling a bit out of place. She wore blue baggy jeans, and a black cropped sweater which showed off her slender waist, she let her hair down, curled her lashes, and had a bit of lip gloss on which made her red lips pop.
Steven, why don't you take your friend back home, Steven's mom let out after wiping her mouth elegantly with a salvete, oh no need, Penelope respectfully waved the suggestion, and stood up to leave laughing nervously, Steven stood up along with her he's already home, so I can just leave by myself, thank you so much for the food it was delicious. Okay then, let our chauffeur take you home, Steven escort your girlfriend out, his dad said with a wink, she's not my girlfriend dad, Steven spluttered turning bright red, please do come visit again dear Penelope, both his parents said in sync. You could have at least told me to dress formal, Penelope let out after a deep sigh, I felt so awkward, you're parents must think I'm mannerless, I can't believe you did that to me. Penelope turned to look at Steven who let out a soft giggle, calm down you were perfect and they both liked you very much, he smiled, but still, if I had known you live here, she stressed gesturing at the house, and your parents are elegant tycoons who eat a widespread of vegetarian food for dinner, dressed very nicely at all times, I could've worn a dinner gown or something. Okay, I understand why you were taken aback, but can we talk about this in school, I don't think you'd want to talk about it over the phone. You are right I would not, see you in school tomorrow, she smiled and got in the car as Steven closed the door.
Penelope was so deep in her thoughts, she didn't even realize when she got home. We have arrived young lady, the chauffeur opened the door and said, which snapped her back to reality, thank you for dropping me off, she said as she got off and waved him goodbye as the car drove off. Ah, you scared me, she yelped and said when she turned to see Patrick. How was your date, he asked a bit emotional, it was fine, I went to his house for dinner not knowing I was in for a shock, he's quite rich right, she let out a short gasp with her hand over her chest with a questioning look, how did you know that. Patrick smiled a little at her cute reaction, he picked and dropped you off in a mustang, those cars are freaking expensive, oh, she nodded agreeing that the car looked quite unique, she knew Steven came to school in a black car, but it was definitely not that one, even with her tiny knowledge of cars she knew that. Did you not know you're boyfriend was rich, Patrick asked seeing her deep in thought, mhm he's not my boyfriend, she cleared her throat before saying, and no I didn't know, I don't know much about cars, she pouted. I've heard rumors of a rich guy in my class, but I could never have guessed it was Steven, she stopped and yawned stretching her arms, anyways good night, see you later Patty. Patrick smiled to himself as she disappeared into his house, happy that she at least wasn't dating him, and she called him Patty, even though it was absent mindedly.
