when catrina's father had mentioned he was in a relationship, it had thrown her for a loop. of course, she was an adult now, she knew there was a likely chance he'd dated over the years since her mother had passed, but he'd never wanted her to meet them before, that meant things were serious. she wanted to be happy for him, but part of her felt strange, knowing she was going to have to welcome someone new into the life they'd built together. someone new who had a child. she'd spent all day cleaning up the house, singing in the kitchen with her dad to classic rock as they put finishing touches on a meal that cat found way too fancy for a first meeting, and finally when the doorbell rang, catrina followed behind her father, standing a few steps back as he opened the door, pulling who was presumably his girlfriend into a hug and an awkward parental kiss. she was quiet, looking down at the ground as it happened - she'd never seen her dad kiss anyone that she could remember and it wasn't until she heard the woman's voice and what she said that she looked up, blinking her eyes in surprise at the person standing in her front door, "robert, i want you to meet my son, spencer." @spencetm
