Just Being a Parent

Love shared by young people can be challenging for people around them, especially with family pretending they like the partner for their kin. However, family can only do so much. When Celebrity Son (CS) admitted he and Network Talent (NT) were already an official couple, his revelation was met with admiration. These days, very few celebrities admit they are in real relationships, but CS did not play by the rules and proclaimed the truth.

The happiest person with the revelation is NT, as she no longer has to hide her being committed to someone. Although the relationship would limit her being partnered with other male talents, career decisions seemed to not matter. NT is a supportive, loving, and proud partner of CS.

When the family of CS was asked for reactions concerning the relationship, Parents 1 and 2 were happy, as they know how to play the limelight already. P1 was coy about his son having a life dedicated to NT, but P2 had a different attitude as soon as things were back in private.

The household staff informed P2 that CS and NT would often hang around their home and stay in the locked bedroom of CS. As P1 and P2 have commitments to attend to every day, they could not monitor the behavior of their kids and they do trust them to behave accordingly. However, when P2 learned about the activities of CS and NT in their home, she did not hesitate to talk to CS. After all, the family has a reputation to protect and P2 must have thought that something might be happening inside the bedroom of CS.

Among her friends, P2 allegedly confided that while she respects NT for being the girlfriend of CS, her becoming a daughter-in-law does not necessarily follow. Things were fine until the moments when NT would spend too much time in their home and sometimes in their business office, with CS.

Later, P2 was shocked to see the credit card statements of CS, as the charges seemed over the top. Most charges were spent on expensive items and groceries from a high-end supermarket. Knowing CS, P2 knew doing groceries was the last thing he would do. Thus, P2 decided to investigate and according to her sources, NT and her kin would often do their shopping at the said store. P2 realized who then was footing the grocery bills. P2 told CS about her discovery and the latter could only keep quiet, as financially, he is very dependent on his parents. P2, however, did not stop there. She secretly talked to NT about going to their house. The talk bore fruit, as NT hardly shows up in their house these days.

With P2 making her presence felt in the relationship of CS and NT, the young couple would have to play along her rules or else, they risk becoming another ‘you and me against the world’ story or have an abrupt end to their budding love.
