Rabbits in the Headlights – A Dad Story
Casanova Max was ‘hanging out’ with new girlfriend, Hannah, at her place recently. Her Dad dropped Max back to our house late at night, and I went outside to wave from the front door. Hannah’s Dad stayed in the car as the two lovebirds were on the driveway between the two Dads. The very bright driveway sensor light went on and we had a ‘standoff’.
Things got awkward because the lovebirds were looking to have a ‘hug’ and Max was gesturing for me to go inside. I was oblivious to Casanova’s intentions so I stayed put. Eventually the kids had a very cute goodbye hug ( which both Dads had not seen performed before).
I looked at Hannah’s Dad ( a police officer) and we had a ‘Dad chuckle’ at how cute the kids looked hugging in the spotlight. I then thought to myself …
” You’re laughing now Hannah’s Dad, but your problems have only just started Buddy”
PS – better keep the capsicum spray handy!
