–I’m sure is flattered, Robert, but… Since when you inviting teachers to drink with you?
The man asked suspiciously, crossing his arms on the chest, patiently waiting for a response. He smells something… ‘cheesy’. That’s an insanely bad situation to use a pun, but, Hugo’s mind doesn’t care. He just loves cheese.
Obviously, Hugo did not expect to see what he saw. And yes, he’s been with Ernest, to make him apologize, but he quickly closed the door in hopes that his son didn’t see the other.
This man completely lost the point of this conversation. Right now he’s just listening for Robert, trying to not be rude. It’s all that he can do after all. Well… he can add few ‘uh-huh’ and ‘yeah’, but that’s never enough to show his unbelievable interest. Not that he’s not interested, no-no! He’s just very confused.
–May I ask… where did we started with it? And how we ended up at your family adventures?…
The teacher blabbered loudly something unknown, moving his head a little and smiling widely at angry Robert. For the first time in months he’s having a good time, and who cares that he won’t gonna remember anything after that!
Alcohol in his system raises up his courage and pushes away his shyness, what provides a lot of bold moves. Hugo lazily turned around on top of the smaller man and yawned next.
He says this over a plastic cup of goddamn fruit punch, because Joseph doesn’t believe in serving liquor at backyard cookouts. Whatever. Eat free food now, get drunk later.
“How else do you think I got hot Latin blood? My granddad fucked Frida Kahlo and she popped out my mom. He fled with Ma to America to escape Frida’s husband and the paparazzi.”
Living in the same place for so long should’ve taught him all of Robert’s tricks and stories, but every time he comes up with more and more interesting and confusing information. Yet he manages to make it sound logical, which is very surprising. What even more surprising that he never failed at this. That deserves a respect.
What Hugo never liked is the way Robert speaks. It’s too vulgar. But he never gonna say it, because, well… He’s an adult and he’s allowed to say what he wants, as long as he’s not offending anybody. Even though Hugo’s ears being very offended right now.
–’Popped out’, huh. You’re never gonna stop surprising me, Small.
