A few days ago, one of my friends and I decided we wanted to go together to the movies on the weekend but we weren't able to do so.
Her parents are very strict and they were worried that her daughter was disturbing me, which makes no sense because she has been my best friend since we were toddlers. I have the slight suspicion that they just don't like me but I couldn't care less about that because I love passing time with her.
Her father called me in the morning of Saturday (the day we were supposed to go) to ask if I was ok with going to the cinema, I was very confused because the idea came from both of us. I told that to him, then he informed me that he called my mother to see who would drive us there and then pick us up but she didn't answer her phone. It was raining heavily so I thought she wasn't receiving the calls. He asked me if I could call my mother and ask her, at this point I was getting nervous, I made up an excuse to solve the problem and told him we should postpone the plans for next week because the weather was very bad.
It worked and we've already decided my mom will take us there and bring us back.
I know it's normal that her parents worry about her but I think they were a bit overprotective and made it look like the situation was extremely complicated when, in reality, it was super simple. I hope this time it turns out well.
