The Boss And His Lover

Nathaniels' (POV)

It's been an hour since I left the house and I still can't get away from my mom.

"Nathaniel, why can't you just think about it?" my mother asks.

"Because, it's only been a day since I met Sarah and you're already asking me if I think of her as marriage material." I say annoyed.

"Well, it's not my fault. Your the one who's about to turn 26 and you still haven't found a wife." she replies back in the same tone.

"Yeah, Yeah,  I told you when the time is right, I'll find who I'm meant to be with."

"Honey, you know I love you and you know I believe in true love, but YOU'RE TURNING 26 YEARS OLD! For goodness sake please find someone. I really want grandchildren and I also want you to be happy." she says in her nagging tone.

"Mom! I love you, I really do, but you know you can't make me fall in love with someone."

"I know I can't, but could you please try? I don't even care what kind of girl your dad wants for you anymore, I just want you to find someone. Could you do at least one thing for me?"

"What do you want?" I ask desperate to get rid of her by now.

"Your birthday's on Sunday." I nod, "There will be a lot of girls at that party. And you , have to give them a shot and try to have a connection with one of them, for me?" She asks with so much hope in her eyes.

"If I say I'll try will you leave my office?"

"Yes." she nods vigorously

"Then fine."

"I love you so much!" she says happily as she kisses my cheeks.

I reply back with an annoyed sigh as point at the door for her to leave.

"Alright, alright, I get it." she says as she heads for the door.

Sigh....Why does my mother have to be soo pushy. The last time she had this conversation with me was yesterday, during dinner, while Sarah was in the room. Because of my mother again, after dinner she was saying she wanted to go steady with me. That was the sixth girl this week who asked me out. All thanks to my mother. I try to forget about my mother and this situation while I work. After about  two hours later, my brother comes into the room....

"What's up Alex..." I sigh

"Hey, is mom bugging you again?"

"Yeah and I'm seriously thinking of jumping off a cliff." I reply annoyed.

"I understand how you feel, I was in your shoes before too, remember?"

"And how'd you deal with it again?" I ask sarcastically

"I went to Japan and didn't tell anyone." He replies back with a wide grin

"Oh yeah I remember that now! Mom almost called the FBI." We both laugh together. "You're lucky I was able to stop her."

"Yeah I know. I still owe you because of that."

"I know." I say and we both continue to chuckle.

"Alright, alright, I get it. Now, let's go out for lunch."

"I really don't wan--" I say but get cut off before I can finish,

"Did I ask if you wanted to come?" Without another word said, I get pulled out from my office and into my new Lamborghini.

"Where do you want to go?" I say as I start the ignition.

"Oh there was this bakery/café that mom told me about. She said they made really good desserts."
