Joe's Approval
Chapter9
I stared at everybody in awe. Charlotte and I exchanged glances then we both just shrugged neither knew what to say. Joseph and Shades were trying to stifle laughs. Mia spoke first, " Hello!" Then she ran over to her "sisters". "I thought you guys couldn't make it"? "Girl there is nothing a couple of hundred of bucks can't buy you"? "You paid of your teachers"? I said. "Hey Gramma", they weakly replied. Everyone called me Gramma now; I mean I took care of them like I was there Gramma why not? "Well we paid them off with good reason" said Asana. Then she held out her hand and showed us the big ring on her finger. Mia squealed in delight," Who"? That was when Michael stepped up and put his hand around Asana's waist and kissed her cheek. "Me". "Wow! I'm so happy for you guys"! Asana had this look on her face like "thank god". "But I told Mike that we couldn't get married in America that we had to get married in Genovia". "I reluctantly agreed. She also told me that I had to have a certain someone's approval". They looked our (me and Joe's) way and I KNEW they weren't looking at me so the only person there was Joe. "Michael can I speak with you in the ballroom". We all feared for Mike's health if there was one thing you didn't mess with it was the women in Joe's lyfe.
An hour later Mike came back into the room. "He's acceptable". Asana jumped out of her chair and hugged both Mike and Joe. "Well", I yawned, "I'm tired I'm going to bed". "Uh-Huh". "What"? The kids giggled. "What"? "Sure Gramma you're going to bed"! I knew what they meant "Kiss my", "Your Majesty you should go to bed". Joseph looked me in the eye and I knew I wanted to follow him upstairs!
