GEORGE
Me and my son have had a difficult relation in the past, but in the past few months, things got better. He left his rebellious attitude, had a close group of friends at the country club, and took more effort to dress up. He was a good looking lad, especially when he dressed the part. He looked like a younger version of me.
Over the years, I’ve matured gracefully. Nice thick grey hair, a full grey beard. Although I’ve aged, I’m still quite fit. I always had a soft spot for the Dandy look. A man dressed in a suit, having a big handkerchief puffed in the chest pocket. For as long as I remember I dressed like that, and tried to bring the same look to my son.
That morning, I was sitting behind my desk, reading the morning paper. I was wearing a light brown suit, brown shirt and a bourgondy patterned tie. My chestpocket handkerchief has the same color and pattern as my tie, and was puffed to the max. When I was halfway through the paper, I heard a knock on my door.
“Enter”
The door opened, and my son Frederic was stepping through. He looked good in his grey suit. Although the handkerchief in his breastpocket could be bigger.
“Goodmoring father. We have received an invitation for a father-son event at the countryclub tonight. I have your invitation here” Frederic walked towards the desk, handing the envelope over. “We’re expected at eight”
I accepted the envelope, took out the invitation and carefully read the details. I closed the invitation, and place it on the side of my desk. I get up from my chair, and walk towards my son.
“Looks like an invite we can’t refuse”
As I stand in front of Frederic, I pull out his breast pocket square. “We better look spotless when we go tonight. I don’t want people to think we’re sloppy” I start folding the hankerchief into a big puff, and stuff it back in Frederic’ chestpocket. As I stuff it in, my fingers feel his strong torso underneath the suit.
“Looks better, don’t you think Son?” I ask him when I tap his shoulder.
“Yes father, it does. Thank you” he meekly repied
“I have some other business to attend to. I’ll pick you up at 7.15”
“That’s alright father, I’ll see you tonight”
I saw Frederic turn around and walk out my study. I cannot help being excited about an opportunity to bond with my son.
