"why would you have freaked out if he had said "what DID you do?" Carol questions, though knowing the answer.
"well..." "uhm..." not being able to come up with a good response, he looks to Echo for help -
(pleasure doing business with you)
Echo blinked, glancing at Heath then at her mother. 'Well...' she stuttered. 'He's... always been embarrassed that her worked at a barber's shop instead of... something else,' she said, making up something on the spot. -
"yes. that's what it is." "it just seemed like not a very fulfilling job." Heath says, following along with the lie
"hmm..." Carol glares at him. "right then." -
Echo continued eating, it seemed they were off the hook for now.
-
"so Echo," her mother says between bites of food. "would you like to tell us about your relationship?"
-
'Huh?' Echo said, looking up again, 'What about it?'
-
"well you know. your little barber boy here." she casually
gestures to Heath with a spoon, and continues eating. Heath starts having an uncomfortable coughing fit, very awkward in the situation. -
Echo blinked. 'Uhm..' she muttered. 'W-well, we met in the street, and spent a lotta time together, so we just became close, I guess.'
-
"what do you mean met in the street?" she questions. "didn't you two say that you were recruited as the face of his uncle's company?"
-
Echo quickly stuffed some chicken in her mouth to give her time to answer the question. 'He was with his uncle at the time,' she said meekly.
-
"mmhmm," she hums suspiciously, giving her husband the side eye
-
Harold glanced at his wife. 'What?' he asked, mouth full of chicken.
Echo snickered and Harold shot her a look, before looking back to Carol. -
"this hooligan is dating my precious daughter!" she shouts at him. "do you have anything to say on this matter?"
-
Harold raised an eyebrow. 'Your "precious daughter"?' he asked, making finger quotes in the air. 'No I do not,it is none of my concern.'
'He's not a hooligan!' Echo protested. -
"he is a hooligan!" i want you out of my house. if you don't come back either married or without him then don't bother coming back at all!" she stabs a fork into the table with more force than someone would have expected from her.
Heath stands up, "sorry to be a burden ma'am." he bows and walks out the door sadly
