Uberhood (169) - DeBateau
Armand and Samantha's relationship deepened during the last few weeks. They are in a committed relationship now and want to let their respective families know about their relationship. On this particular day Samantha met Tara DeBateau, Armand's daughter.
Samantha was more than nervous to meet Armand's daughter. It wasn't just the fear of the unknown, but also the fact that she felt totally out of place. The moment she stepped into this opulent penthouse she felt intimidated and like a fish on land. She had absolutely no idea what to expect here.
Armand took the lead and introduced the two. After a way too fast handshake and a small but awkward pause, Tara began to initiate a conversation.
Tara: "So, Samantha. My father told me you are a teacher?"
Samantha: "Yes, that's right. I was promoted recently and will start as a high school teacher as soon as I am transferred to a new school."
Tara: "Mhm. A public school?"
Samantha (confused): "As far as I know, yes. Why?"
Tara: "Just asking."
Suddenly Chanel, Tara's dog, walked up on Samantha and began to sniff at her.
Chanel couldn't believe what she learned about Samantha that day. It was something she never sniffed on a person before. Was it really possible? POLYESTER?!
Samantha felt very uncomfortable. She started to worry if it was a mistake and too early to meet Armand's daughter/ family.
After a bit more smalltalk Tara excused herself and went to the family's office to play golf. I guess Tara thought she did her part. Armand wasn't all too pleased with her behavior that day. However, he wanted to keep a stiff upper lip.
The next day Armand invited Samantha and her children, well at least those who live with her, for dinner.
Mare (euphoric): "Oh. My. God. Look at this place!"
Erica: "IKR?"
Tara (unimpressed): "Hello."
Erica: "A soda, please"
Tara (shocked): "Excuse me? I'm not the-"
Erica (amused): "I'm just kidding! Relax."
...
Did Tara just meet her match? 😂
The rest of the evening went surprisingly well. Erica and Tara seem to actually have a lot in common and the way Erica responded to Tara really made an impression on her.
Later Tara even rolled the following want ↑
I take this as a good omen.
