I watch Manuel walk to the door, wanting nothing more than to escape out of the back door of the house before he lets his parents in through the front door. I can’t believe he landed this on me! Though considering Esme's actions, that probably wouldn't reflect well right now... dammit... who ever came up with meeting the parents? Surely I could just avoid them the whole time? Go out each time they come over or stay home when he visits?... anything to avoid the horrendous nerves inside of me right now... I think I feel sick...

I haven’t had chance to tidy his house, do the good mate thing...
