"We are here?" Emilia beamed, quickly opening the door. "We are finally here. Let's go."

When Antonio got out of the car, gosh, he was so irritated with the place. Fuck! He could have sworn the air felt different. What the fuck was he doing at such a place?

Everyone got out of their cars and they all started heading towards the door. They were looking around the place and most of them were definitely not happy, especially Antonio and Andrea. They were so damn pissed.

"So this is where my future grandson in law lives?" Granny smiled, moving her eyes from place to place.

"Yes!" Emilia exclaimed, getting really anxious. "I told all of you that he is from a humble background."

"Well, I am not complaining." She chuckled, raising her hands as if she was surrendering. "I know that you and my son cannot make any mistake. But I am excited right now. Let's go and meet him."

Emilia smiled at her mother in law and they started heading towards the door.

‘What the fuck am I doing in such a place?’ Antonio thought, clenching his fists. Anger could be seen in his face because it was starting to turn red. ‘This is too much. I gotta talk to mom before things get worse. I don't care anymore.’

He took a harsh breath and started heading to his mother. But before he reached her, he felt someone grab his wrist. He looked passed his shoulder and saw Andrea shaking her head, signaling him to stop. He groaned and just stood still.

Meanwhile, Emilia reached the door and knocked. Antonio just stood there looking like a statue without even moving an inch. Suddenly a woman opened the door smiling like she had just seen God. She wasn't even dressed specially, just an ordinary dress but she was at least beautiful.

"Hey!" Victoria gasped, smiling at the entire family. "You are here."

"Victoria," Emilia beamed brightly, taking a deep breath. "You know I wouldn't miss this for the world. I have waited for so long for this. We are here for serious business today."

"Okay, please come inside." She opened the door wider so that the guests could come inside.

Emilia and her family started coming inside and Victoria's happiness was overflowing. There were two handsome men with her but she didn't need to guess who Antonio was. God! He was really handsome, more handsome than he had seen him in magazines. She could already picture him with Praveen and they were gonna be the perfect couple.

When they went inside the living room, they could see that Victoria had made some wonderful decorations in the living room. It was marvelous. The guests sat and Victoria knew she had to make them comfortable.

"Well, you are welcome to my house." She said followed by a warm smile.

Antonio couldn't utter a word. He just smiled faintly when she looked at him although he was really irritated.

"Thank you so much." Granny said happily. "We should be the ones thanking you for welcoming us to your house knowing what we've come here to do."

"It's no problem."

Emilia's two children, Mike and Julia came to greet the guests and they were the happiest kids ever. They were just ordinary beautiful children but they were definitely raised well and Victoria was impressed.

At first everyone including Antonio mistook Mike for Praveen but it was cleared when Victoria introduced them as her children, Mike and Julia. It seemed everyone was eager to meet him, except for Antonio who was dying to get out of that hell his mother had imposed on him.

"Mike and Julia, why don't you get our guests some refreshments?" Victoria said. "I am pretty sure they are thirsty."

Mike and Julia went to the kitchen and they came back with some juice which they served to the guests. Granny thanked them for their hospitality but...

"Okay, we've been here for quite some time and..." Granny paused, looking all around. "...I don't see my future grandson in law. Isn't he here or something?"

"Oh!" Victoria cleared her throat. "He is here and..." She moved her eyes to her son. "Mike, please go and get him."

"Yes, mom." Mike said with a smile.

Mike left and granny continued talking with Victoria, still appreciating her and telling her how warm and cozy her house was. She also asked questions about Praveen because she was eager to know everything about him though Emilia had told her almost everything she knew about him.

Finally, the moment they had been waiting for arrived. Mike came back and he was with the shy looking beautiful boy. Praveen was dressed in a beautiful blue shirt with white stripes, a black skinny jean and brown sandals. He was looking simple but really beautiful. After all, he didn't have any fancy clothes.

His curled hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing his pretty face and wonderful skin. He was wearing spectacles but he was still beautiful in them.

On the other hand, the first thing that happened when Antonio saw Praveen was irritation. He got irritated to the point that he just wanted to get out of that place. The boy himself, the way he was walking like a retarded idiot and fuck, those glasses just got him so mad. What was his mother thinking, he thought as he looked away? Fuck! The boy wasn't even half his class. It was so annoying but it was all thanks to his fucking mother that he had to suffer like that.

Meanwhile, Praveen wasn't even looking at the guests. His eyes were at the floor because he was just too shy, nervous and anxious at the same time. His heart was pounding deep in his chest and he was starting to sweat. Emilia's entire family had come to see him and it was making him really nervous.

"Oh my God," Granny covered her mouth, staring at her daughter in law with her eyes wide open. "Emilia, why didn't you tell me this boy was so beautiful?"

That statement from granny made Praveen blush so much that he almost ran away.

"Mother, I told you he was very beautiful."

Praveen walked with Mike to the living room and stopped. He stood beside his aunt and that was the time when he raised his eyes. Shit! His eyes just landed on Antonio, his husband to be. His heart simply stopped beating... he held his breath... his body felt hot and cold at the same time... his emotions got out of control and he remained motionless.

Antonio was even more handsome than he looked in magazines he had seen. His hair was perfectly combed and his body was just amazing. The way his chest was exposed was dreamy. Everything in that room disappeared except for the two of them. Time stopped and Praveen felt a cool breeze hit his face.

Though Antonio wasn't looking at him, Praveen was sure that his eyes were just as beautiful. But he didn't want to be caught staring so he moved his eyes and looked somewhere else.

Emilia smiled brightly, getting up from the chair. She held Praveen and just smiled at her family. The time had come for the introduction to begin.

"This is Praveen Garcia, the boy I have been telling you about." She blurted, patting on his back. "Praveen, this is my family."

She started introducing him to them one by one. She first introduced him to her eldest son and his wife then went to introduce him to her daughter who gave him a fake smile. She introduced him to her mother in law who seemed more than happy and then she lastly introduced him to her son, Antonio.

Antonio raised his face, stared into those annoying eyes and just smiled faintly before looking away. Praveen didn't even notice because he had been busy blushing.

"Well, I must say you are very handsome." Granny said abruptly. "You are just perfect for my grandson. I know that you two will look good together." Praveen couldn't help but blush. "Why don't you come and sit with me?"

Praveen nodded and went to sit with her.

Antonio was about to explode in anger. His fists were clenched and he was only moments away from exploding. He had never seen anyone so irritating as the boy he was looking at. His mother just had to embarrass him. Bruce was hundred times better than the annoying brat.

Anyway, granny continued sitting with the boy. She was asking questions and appreciating him. She was only meeting him for the first time but she loved him already. She definitely knew her son didn't make a mistake by choosing such a boy for her grandson. The rest of Emilia's family was quiet and Emilia wanted her son and Antonio to get to know each other so she had an idea.

"Oh, mother..." She cleared her throat. "...it seems you've taken Praveen all to yourself. I think Antonio also wants to talk to him. After all, they are meeting for the first time and I am sure they are both dying to speak to each other."

"Fuck!" Antonio cursed, clenching his teeth.

Emilia held Praveen's hand, slowly rubbing on it. "I am sure you two would like to talk to each other. Why don't you go out, catch some air and try to get to know each other more."

Praveen stared at Antonio and smiled. He was nervous but he just nodded and got up from the chair. Then he slowly started going outside.

Antonio on the other hand didn't know if at all he was gonna continue with the charade. He just wanted to get out of there but it seemed as if his mother was controlling his life. It was annoying. But he had no choice. He got up from the chair and followed the boy behind.

Praveen got out of the house and he lost the smile on his face. He felt as if he was able to breathe. He had felt really suffocated inside and the cool air outside made him feel better. He was able to breathe again although he was still nervous, unsure and confused. He couldn't make anything of Antonio. The guy hadn't spoken a word to him.

His nervousness increased when he heard footsteps right behind him. He knew that Antonio was coming behind him. He started playing with his hands which were getting really sweaty by the second. He had no idea what to say? What if he said something wrong? He just had to be confident. Maybe the guy was as good as he had heard from Mike.

On the other hand, Antonio's anger was getting out of control with every step he made towards the brat. Fuck! If only he could rip that fucking ponytail off and kill him right there. He so fucking hated him more than he hated his enemies. But he knew he had to control himself.

He went and stood beside him, looking straight ahead.
