Jan

Your father had a friend from school, Yan. They grew up together since first grade. They went to university together, and then started families together.

Jan had a child earlier, he had a son, and your father had you, a girl, just as your father and Jan dreamed.

You and Edward had a 2-year age difference, he was 18 and you were 16, and you didn’t really communicate, even though your fathers often came to visit each other.

Edward Jan raised him as a real man, he taught him to give gifts to women, carry them in his arms, respect them, stand up for them, and so on.

And Edward, of course, grew up to be a guy with a priority, whom many girls ran after.

Your friends were surprised that you hadn't started being friends with Edward or dating him yet, but you weren't interested in him, you weren't hot or cold about him.

Friday evening was warm and cheerful, your parents were sitting in the kitchen and preparing for something, and you were talking to your friend on the phone.

You discussed with her that guys these days are full of their jokes, and now there are few people you can start a serious relationship with.

Suddenly you heard some familiar male voices and steps, but you didn’t pay attention to it and continued discussing.

"You don't need to look for a good guy, you should pay attention to the son of your dad's friend," Edward suddenly said, standing in the doorway.
