Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

"Yes!" Ambrose answered dauntlessly.

Colin found himself utterly speechless. He paused for a while and then tried to put his idea across the table. "Okay. There are two options for you. First, you can make her your girlfriend. And that will be easy for everybody. Then the second thing is I can make her... your mother."

... Pondering about what is happening and what will happen, they both stayed silent for a while.

Finally, Ambrose broke the silence and shouted as loud as he could, "Grandma! Your son is coming after my girlfriend!"

Colin hissed at him, "Shut up! You're ruining everything!"

Ambrose knew everybody was already asleep. Yet, it didn't stop him to say it loud. He did that on purpose.

Ambrose grabbed Colin's arm and turned serious. "Colin, I am telling you. Sophia Lo would be mine sooner or later. You know I could do that and I'll make sure I will. So stay away from her!"

The son sternly warned his father. But the father had other plans in mind. Suddenly, Colin got hold of Ambrose, laid him down on his legs and spanked his bottom three times...

Pak! Pak! Pak!

"Nooooo! Waaaa!" Ambrose seemed to burst into tears and spitefully blurted out, "Colin... you are my enemy now! You stay away from me too! Huhuhu..." Ambrose felt very sad and blue. Never in his life had he imagined that his beloved Daddy would want to grab from him the woman he loved.

Colin put Ambrose down on the bed and said, "So, do you really want to have a fight with me over a woman? You know, it will end badly for you, Ambrose."

Ambrose pretended to be weeping as he tried to wipe the tears that hadn't even come down. He nodded heavily and said, "Yes! I think you should give up, or I will fight you through the bitter end. You are 34 years old already! You are an old man now! How can you compete for a girl with a young man like me? Aren't you too old for chasing girls? Young men always triumph over old men in this sort of thing.

... Why were they both falling in love with that woman? What did he see in Sophia that prompted Ambrose to fight against his father rather than giving up?

Colin tucked Ambrose into the bed again and said, "Just go to sleep!"
