“I’ve heard many great things about you I’m pretty sure you have tons of questions for me, “he says nervously.

“Oh, Jaden you have no idea, “Bette says staring at her I just found out about you son-in-law. “Where are you from? What are you going to school for? Are your parents still together? What are your future plans? How do you plan on supporting our daughter?”

Jaden looking over at Angelica was nervous but he wanted to impress her parents wanting them to feel comfortable that Angelica made a great choice in marrying him.

“My mother Sarah is a neurologist and my other mother Tamara is an Aeronautical Engineer I grew up in———–.”

“Excuse me what did you say, “Tina asked cutting him off.

Looking confused Jaden repeats himself, “My mother Sarah is a neurologist and my other mother Tamara is———-.”

“Your parents are lesbians?”

“Uhmmm, yes ma’am and have been together for over 25 years and married for 5.”

Both Tina and Bette look at each other in complete shock. At first glance Jaden looked like he came straight from the suburbs raised on bigotry viewpoints and opinions. It was lesson learned for both Bette and Tina to never judge a book by its cover. Jaden, hadn’t even had the chance to answer all of the questions Bette had thrown his way but the mere fact he too was raised in a household with similar family dynamics as Angelica they slowly begin to understand why Angelica had fallen in love with him they had a lot in common. Looking at Tina smiling Bette asked for Jaden to continue.

“My mother Sarah is white and my other mother Tamara is black neither one could have children so I was adopted when I was 3 months old. My mother Tamara was in the Navy and we moved around a lot so when she retired they decided to make Knoxville, TN there home which is where I grew up. I will be graduating with honors in the fall with a B.S. in Computer Science. It was important to me and my parents that I earn my degree before entering the draft and that’s————-.”

“Excuse me draft what draft, “Tina asked in confusion.

“The NBA draft ma’am.”
