So, Dude’s semi-boss is in town, and he was telling some great stories about his kid, who is eleven now. He’s a single dad and the mom is only very vaguely in the picture; he has pretty much sole custody.
He gave his daughter The Talk, you know, the one about how babies are made etcetera. He figured it was time, and he had to do it. She stood there with her arms crossed over her chest not quite looking at him the entire time, giving zero feedback. He sort of petered out nervously once he’d hit all the points he’d intended to, and said, “So uh… okay. Do you have, uh. Any questions?”
She raised her head and fixed him with a keen stare. “Just one,” she said.
“Okay,” he said, stammering a little, “I mean– okay! What do you want to know?”
“Do you have to be so awkward about it?” she asked.
“Uh,” he said.
She gestured, sort of waving her fingers at him, and he backed out of the doorway, and she shut the door to her room, and he went away.
“It went well,” he told us. “I think.”
