I grab his arm and hide my face on his back, slightly. Xander clears. "Mom, stop staring at my baby, you're embarrassing her!"Aunt ignores him and starts looking between us... My cheeks flame up, I take a peek at Xander and notice his ears and neck all red.He's blushing!"Mom!" Xander calls aunt.She suddenly bursts into laughter, making me sink more into my embarrassment.So laughs so hard that she's holding her stomach, tears threatening to fall from her eyes."Mom, stop it!"Aunt laughs a few more minutes then sobers up, though she's still fighting to hold back her laughter."I have never in my life imagine I'll walk in on my son and daughter-in-law mating!" Aunt pause and stares at us again, then rai

Does he meets your criteria?"Ok, this is a college entrance examination! I fold my lips in my mouth shortly and thinks about it for a little while... I don't know if it's appropriate to tell Aunt what I really think. And I don't know if I'll speak out of line.Aunt stops writing and stares at me curiously, I release a nervous laugh."Aunt, I...." I trail off."Alexa, relax, I'm just being curious!" She rubs my shoulder lightly as if it will help me calm down.I took a deep breath and really feel myself relaxing slowly..."Xander... he's trying.

Ding ding ding! I hear the doorbell rings, I get up and rushes towards it."Who's there?"
