When the room noticed the two of them enter, Kat's father spoke up. "Glad you decided to join us, Katarina. You too, Nyeira." After his warm welcome, the room fell awkwardly silent and Nyeira noticed Kat glance over towards her, signaling her to sit down and that was exactly what she had done. Every night both of their families always make an extra place for the girls at their family dinners in case they choose to show up for dinner. They were pretty much adopted into each other's families. If they didn't like what one family was having, they would go eat at the others' house. This always worked for each other in their opinion and their parents never seemed to be bothered by it.
The moment Kat finally sat down, she heard Imogene let out a snicker and Nyeira glanced over at the girl before quietly starting to fix her plate. Even though this was going to be an interesting conversation, she still needed something to eat so she was going to go ahead while she could.
When Kat finally spoke up and grabbed her parents's attention, utensils were set down, signaling that it was most likely going to be smart for her to do the same. Just as expected, Kat's mother began lecturing the girls on all the many reasons why her answer was a definite no.
When Kat's mother finally stopped talking, Nyeira cleared her throat and the entire room seemed to set their eyes upon the girl.
"What if we made a deal? Nyeira started and Kat's mother immediately seemed to be intrigued by Nyeira's effort. What if Kat returned within three weeks time of the wedding, I'm sure you already have organized, just like every mother does for their daughter when they meet their soul mate; so she would have enough time to make sure her dress fits and whatnot."
Nyeira reached for her glass of water and took a sip from it before adding, "If she agreed to this, would you then be okay with her going?" Nyeira knew for certain her mother was most likely going to continue on saying no, but at least Nyeira was putting in the effort. She had her fingers crossed beneath the table as she sat there in the sudden awkward silence awaiting an answer from her parents.
