Alyseca: *busts down the door with her Minho's phone in her hand* MATHEW CASTANO!
Mathew: *looks up with genuine fear in his eyes* Chicle?
Alyseca: *barges into the living room where he is sitting and shoves Minho's phone into his face* Look at this! *clearly concerned*
Minho: *sixteen and blushing hard* Mama! *runs into the room and stops in his tracks and pales*
Mathew: *puts his head back because the phone is too close for his eyes to focus* What is- *widens his eyes and looks at his son* Mierda.
Alyseca: *runs into another room and reacts how Collette thinks she would react*
Mathew: *clears his throat and begins walking towards Minho* So.
Minho: *swallows* Did you see it?
Mathew: *nods with his mouth in a thin line* Do you mean it?
Minho: *dark red*
Mathew: *sighs and sits down on the couch* How long have you two been dating?
Minho: *standing awkwardly* A month.
TEN MINUTES EARLIER:
Minho: *sitting up on his bed with his hands gripping his phone* I don't know!
Alyseca: *raises eyebrows* What are you hiding from me, Minho (middle name) Castano?
Minho: *avoiding eye contact* N o t h i n g.
Alyseca: *squints her eyes*
Alyseca: Fine. *stands up and holds out her hand* Phone.
Minho: *pale as heck* W-why?
Alyseca: If you have nothing to hide, then give me your phone.
Minho: *hardly breathing, he hands it to her*
Alyseca: *turns it on* What's the password?
Minho: *tells her the password*
Alyseca: *unlocks the phone and struggles to not fangirl*
Alyseca: *walks out*
A FEW MINUTES LATER:
Minho: A month.
Mathew: *surprised* Wow. *nods and takes a deep breath* You said you loved her after only a month.
Minho: *wishing he was anywhere but there*
Mathew: That was longer than me and your mother.
Minho: wait what *not what he expected his father to say*
Mathew: *leans forward with his elbows on his knees* Si. I realized I cared about her before we even started dating, and Aunt Cookie told me she loved me, and Uncle Daniel *chuckles slightly* He told her that I liked her.
Minho: *mumbles* Great friends. *chuckles with his father*
Mathew: *smiling* Maybe, but I don't know how long it would have taken us if it hadn't been for those two.
Minho: *silence*
Mathew: *silence*
Minho: *silence*
Mathew: *silence*
Mathew: Do you love her?
Minho: *blinks*
Minho: *sighs and scratches the back of his neck* I mean...
