Priya and her husband, Kevin, agree to be taken out for dinner by Kevin’s parents. But when they get to the restaurant, the couple get a side of snide remarks with their meals.My husband, Kevin, and I eagerly accepted a dinner invitation from his parents. We were newly married and had recently gotten back from our honeymoon, so we had yet to catch up with them.”Priya, are you sure you want to do it?” Kevin asked me as I was doing my makeup for the evening out.”Yes!” I exclaimed. “They’re family now, and I have to spend more time with them, you know.”Kevin sat at the edge of the bed and put his shoes on. I knew he was concerned about how his parents would behave with me.
It’s not that they didn’t like me — they didn’t get to know me properly. Leading up to the wedding, Kevin’s mom, Sasha, only spent about four hours alone with me. And as for John, Kevin’s father — I don’t think I’ve ever been alone with me.”At least they’re splurging for dinner,” Kevin chuckled.I laughed — we were both pleasantly surprised that they had chosen a fancy place for dinner.We get to the restaurant, and Sasha and John jump up, excited to see us.”How was the honeymoon?” Sasha asked. “You must tell us everything!””Mom, it’s not something we’ll talk about, but we can show you some photographs,” Kevin teased.
