277 He Cannot Be Your Father

"Er, Dad, this is Grace, my girlfriend. Grace, this is my father, Jerry Willow," said Stephen, making the necessary introductions.

Jerry broke out into a large smile, the biggest since he had showed up at the house, "Wow, Stephen, really? She's dating you?" He chuckled to himself slightly, and then cozied up to Grace to take her hand. "A pleasure, Grace. Call me Jerry."

"Hi Jerry," replied Grace in a neutral tone, before looking back at Stephen. The moment could not have been more awkward.

"Yes, Grace, you have to come with us to dinner. There's a great place we can go, not far away. Five minutes tops."

"Sure, we'll go," answered Stephen.

"Great!" Jerry grinned, before looking back at his son. "Why don't you go put on some better clothes? We'll be waiting right here," he said, gesturing to Grace. Stephen felt a flash of anger at the way he was treating Grace, almost as if he was hitting on her in front of him.

They left his father standing in the kitchen and returned to his room, shutting the door firmly. Stephen began to rummage for some clothes.

"I can't believe he's here. It's been so long, and he just shows up like this? Out of the blue?" He questioned, while grabbing a pair of pants to put on.

"Don't take this the wrong way, but were you switched at birth or something?" Grace asked, watching him change.

"No, why?"

"I just find it highly unlikely that man could be your father. He seems so... slimy," she shivered to herself, to emphasize her disgust.

Stephen frowned. His father had been back for all of five minutes, and he had already made a bad impression on Grace. Despite his actual reason for being here, Stephen decided to give him a chance. Besides, the last time he had seen him was a good four years ago. So much had changed. He had changed so much. Maybe they could have a real man-to-man discussion and hope for a better relationship in the future.
