I know uniqueness when I see one, this isn't unique, this is weird. There's this tension in the air which is not been spoken of, this is actually my fiancee's family, but they don't look like one happy family. 
Every faces here seems to have a story, a hidden one, a story that is not shared, a story that is not been spoken of, just left to stay dead and hidden while the face carries the real burden. The two people that just came out from the other room looks like they're couples, can see the way they're holding onto each other's hand, the smile on their face looking fake, but they still had to wear them for some reasons.
The woman on the other hand who just came out from the opposite doorway to the couple looks bitter, she was trying to maintain a straight face, but as a psychologist, I can detect when something is out of place in a person's feature, and with this lady, a lot of things are out of place.
The third door opened, I saw a lady coming out from the room, carrying someone on the wheelchair, an old man who looks lanky like he's suffering from AIDS or cancer, despite his lanky features, you can still see some swollen areas, which was possibly the result of stroke.
Without being told, I knew that this man was the head of the family, My fiancee's Dad, Mr Collins Patrick. The lady who drove the wheelchair carried the man until she got him to where Mrs Jennifer was standing, then I watch her walk towards me, keeping eye contact with me as she walks, with a smile on her lips, she bent her knee a bit to sit slightly on the air, then gently bowing her head. That was a greeting, I have seen it before.
The young lady looks Asian, and she had walked up to Peter who was standing behind us, both of them sharing a kiss, not minding the number of people present here. The kissing is not actually a private stuff between couples, but with the tension hovering in the air, it quite looks out of place. Mr Collins who was on a wheelchair was only putting on shorts, he wasn't putting on any clothes on, making the structure of his ribs poking out so visible for everyone to see.
This man should be in the hospital, how come is everyone relaxed about him being here, they look quite filthy rich to take care of this man's medical health care, but none of them seems to be concerned about it, even the Man himself. Maybe I am just overthinking this, maybe I should just let it all go and enjoy the moment with my soon to be new family.
“ We all are gathered here today to welcome in the newest soon to be member of the family and as well, our son and brother who has decided to take the next step in Life...... Liam and his fiancee, Elizabeth.....”
The speech doesn't actually call for clapping, so everyone just relaxed, few of them holding onto their partners like me and Liam were, and the Lady by the door just folding her hands, staring intently at me. Phillips on the other hand was now seated on the couch, legs wide apart and all grin and smile mixed together, like he was really enjoying the intro going on.
I can see Mrs Jennifer gave him a signal, he rose from the couch immediately, turned his frame to face me, his grin still in place like his cheeks wasn't hurting from it, he has been doing that for a while now. “ Hey beautiful, you might possibly know me now you know..... The charismatic one amongst them all..... I'm Phillips, 35 years old, a blonde hair like that of my Mom, a height of 6'1ft, and as well, still single, but do I need women anyways?, We've already got enough.....” he said jokingly before getting back onto his sitting position.
“ You're definitely bringing your woman home before next year Phillips, you can't escape that, leave your brothers wife alone, including the bride to be.....”
Mrs Jennifer cautioned him, sounding quite serious for a joke. Is she joking?, Is she really speaking for speaking sake or both of them were being serious right here?. With the smile still on Phillips face which looks really genuine than the fakes around here, I can believe that they're possibly just making up jokes to spice up the introduction, possibly to make me feel more comfortable and see them as a family rather than a house clouded by hostility.
“ Hey newbie.... It's me again, Peter, I'm the youngest of both the guys and the children of the family, unlike my brother, I'm married, married to my beautiful wife, Maya..... I'm 6ft tall, just an inch shorter than the dick head there, as well with my Dad's amazing black hair, I'm just 29 and would be turning 30 soon enough....”
Yeah, I can see that about their height difference, from a distance they look like they're the same height, but closely, Peter was the one shorter and Phillips taller, but should there be a debate about that?, Both are tall guys, but I prefer Liam exactly the way he was, he's possibly the strongest here amongst them all, as well as a military Man, my military Man.
I know there shouldn't be a debate about this too, but looking from the scenario where Peter is a married Man, me and Liam are soon to become a couple while the eldest of them was still unmarried and single, it looks quite off. He might actually be as charismatic as he said, but with the level, he'll have it hard to maintain just a girl, he seems to be more of a player, not even considering his age in this equation.
And as well about what Mrs Jennifer said earlier about him not looking towards Maya and I, was she really serious?, He had spanked my ass on our first encounter, that brings about something to wonder about, and like he said, they've already got enough girls in the family, I can't really understand what he meant by that, does that mean that Liam not reacting to that spank on my ass got anything to do with this?.
