LOLZ, JK JK. In this chapter Patty's mother , meets Dante and Trish.
********
It had been years since Patty had seen Dante...two years to be exact. She missed him and she missed Lady.
She occasionally saw Lady when she came into starbucks where Patty worked part time. But she hadn't seen Dante in two years and the truth was that Patty missed him a lot. But her mother would not let her go and see him.
"He's working, Dear.."she would say. "It's not appropriate for you to int interrupt him when he is working."
Patty would reply..."It's not like Dante works a 9 to 5 job in a law firm like you do, Mama."
Today was no different. "You just don't want me to see him! You don't like him!" Patty cried.
"It's not that, Patty, love. I just don't think it's appropriate for you to go running in there everyday. Let the man, do his work, for goodness sake."
"Mama, do you even know what Dante does for a living?"
"No, dear but I'm sure he is very busy and can't afford to have you interrupting."
"Mama, he won't mind. Besides he really just sits around all day and waits for a phone call or people to come in. He's a devil hunter. He kills demons for a living."
"That's nice dear."
"You've never even said two words to him, Mama. You don't even know him."
"But you do and suppose your going to drag me down there so I can meet him right now?"
"Yes..."
And that is just what Patty did.
*******
Patty opened the door and sure enough there was Dante, where he always was, as he always was with his feet up on his desk, reading some adult magazine.
"DANTE!!!!!" the girl cried with glee.
Before the devil hunter could even put down his magazine, the girl was running toward him, she had lunged herself across the desk and was hugging him.
"Patty..."he chocked. "need air!!!"
"oh sorry." she said, releasing him and walking back to where her mother was standing. "I got excited. It's been too long since I've seen you."
"I know." said Dante. "What has it been two years?"
Patty nodded.
"How old are you now?" asked Dante.
"15." Patty answered. "this is my mom, she didn't want me to come and see you cause she never met you so i dragged her with me so she could meet you. I told her you wouldn't bite her....much."
Dante laughed. He had missed Patty. She was the only one that could ever make him laugh at such commonplace jokes.
"Hi." said Patty's mother."I'm Nina Lowell. Nice to meet you. I've heard so much about you from Patty. I did want to meet you because I never got to thank you for all things you did for my little girl. So thank you."
"I'm Dante. But i think you already know that. and it was no problem."
Nina opened her mouth to speak but suddenly she turned and saw a young looking woman with long blonde hair running down the stairs.
The woman said nothing but she looked at Dante for an explanation.
"Trish," said Dante. "Remember that little girl was living here two years ago when we were working separately?"
Trish nodded.
"Well this her and her mother."
Trish said nothing but sat on the couch and opened her laptop and turned it on.
"This is Patty and her mother, Nina. This my partner, Trish."
"Your partner and?" said Trish.
"My girlfriend."
"Your girlfriend?" Patty repeated.
"My fiancee actually." said Dante.
"Your fiancee? You're getting married Dante?"
"Yeah."
"CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!" Patty cried, giving Dante another bone crushing hug.
"When's the wedding?" asked Nina.
To that both Trish and Dante shrugged.
