That is how our courtship started and I couldn't believe how things were going every Monday I was dancing on cloud 9 and I was feeling myself falling in love with her. Every evening when I got done with my day I would show up at her dorm we would sit outside and than we would go to her dorm room. I know you guys are wondering if we had sex and no we didn't believe it or not. We talked and laughed and sometimes she cried on my shoulder and I didn't mind because her happiness is all I cared about and still that way today. We were dating for 6 mos. and that is when she approached me.
She said," John, we have been going out for 6 mos. and I want to ask you how commited to this relationship?"
I said," Janet sweetheart, I am very commited to our relationship I can't comprehend living my life without you. I want to grow old with you."
She said," Good than I want you to do a favor for me."
I said," Sure, what do you want me to do?"
She said," The college year is almost over and I want you to meet my parents."
It used to be before I met Janet if any woman said that to me than I knew she was thinking marriage and I would immediately break up with her but that was before I met Janet.
I said," Sure my car is reliable enough to make it almost anywhere and I get probably 3 weeks paid vacation since I haven't taken any time off and I have been working at my job for 3 yrs."
She smiled, hugged and kissed me saying," Oh John I love you so much and I know my parents are going to love you too."
The school year ended and I showed up in my jeans and a nice shirt a nice pair of boots my hat and my sunglasses in my washed Mustang. She came out in this beautiful skirt and white blouse with a big smile as I held open the door she leaned over and kissed me.
I closed the door and rushed over and get in closed the put my belt on and started the car. I loved how the high performance 302 sounded through the dual exhaust.
She said," There was a part of me that thought that you weren't going to go through with it but that was just foolish."
We drove for about 5 hours and than we pulled into the drive-way of her parents modest home and her mom comes running out of the house as soon as she recognized her daughter in the passenger seat and Janet was out of the car before I could shut off the car and let her out..
After Janet and her mom hugged,Janet said," Mom this is my boyfriend I told you about."
Her mom looked at me and said," Come here and give me a big hug will you."
We hugged and started walking towards the house.
She said," Now let me get this straight you drive a truck right?"
I said," Yes mam, I hope to get my commercial driver's license in a couple of years I will be 25 mam."
She said," Well we do like hard working men in this family and you can call me mom or Linda."
We walked into the house and her dad just walked into the house.
He said," Are you the young man my daughter has been talking endlessly about?
You must be one heck of a man the first year there all she talked about was her studies now all she talks about is you."
I really started to blush I didn't know that there was that much to brag about when it came to me.
Linda says," Well why don't we all sit down and say grace it is supper time and I bet you two are famished."
The house may have been modest but the food was fit for a king and after grace we all dug in and started eating. The whole time we ate Janet went and told her parents how we met and how I treated her inspite of what I knew about her. Well after dinner Janet and Linda started cleaning up the table and Jim that is Janet's dad motioned me out to the front porch .
Jim asks," Now you know what kind of girl my dear daughter is don't you."
I said," Yes sir, on our first date she showed me and it doesn't bother me.
She is the most beautiful and intelligent lady I have ever been with. Sir I have read about androgynous women in Greek stories and I thought they were myths."
Jim says," Janet is a special lady but because she is an androgynous she has been picked on and had her heart broken many times and I just wanted to make sure you knew."
I said," I have fallen in love with her and well I want to spend my life with her."
Jim looked at me, smiled and said," Janet has definetly found a good man in you." Well we were about to go to bed and yes we were going to be sleeping separately which didn't bother me.
Well before Jim, Linda and Janet went to the bedroom.
I said," Janet I need to say something to you and I think your parents might want to hear."
They all turned with curious looks on their faces.
I got down on one knee and took her right hand and said," Janet this has been the greatest 6 mos of my life when I am sleeping I am dreaming of you. When I am at work I am thinking of your beautiful smile. So now I have to ask,
Janet will you marry me?
At first Janet had the most bewildered expression on her face than tears welled up in her eyes and than she said," Oh John yes yes yes,you have made me the happiest woman in the world."
Jim and Linda came over and embraced me and said," We couldn't have asked for a better son-in-law welcome to the family."
I did get my commerical license and I have ended up driving for the same company airline manufacturing company in Washington State that my beautiful wife works for and we have a beautiful androgynous daughter and we are going to raise her and never let her forget how special she is. My parents were slow to accept Janet but by the time we were married they came to love her and told me to never break her heart. I never thought that I would marry a hermophodite and to be honest with you thought I would never get married but I don't think I can live my life without her. She is pregnant with a son and I can't ever wait to get off the road and be with my family. Well that is the story I will write some more to tell about my daughter's first day of school and tell you about the birth of my son.
