“Mom?” Laura Golding turned around.

“Oh hi honey!” She wiped her flour covered hands on her apron. “I didn’t hear you come in, I had the mixer on!” She looked at Miko with a surprised smile and then back to Holland expectantly.

“Mom, this is Miko.” Laura wiped her hands on her apron once more and then stuck one out to shake hands. Miko smiled and half nodded, half bowed to Mrs. Golding.

“Is very nice to meet you, Mrs. Holland.” Laura laughed gently.

“Honey, call me Laura or Mrs. Golding if you must.” Miko’s face flushed with embarrassment.

“Nice to meet you Mrs. Golding.” She half nodded and half bowed again, a gesture which Laura repeated this time.

“It’s nice to meet you too, Miko.” Laura gestured to a chair at the dining room table. Holland pulled out a chair for Miko and she sat down. “So, how do you know my son?” Laura asked as she pulled out her own chair and sat down.

“We are going to be married!” Miko exclaimed with a huge smile. Laura’s eyes widened and she smiled in disbelief as she turned to look at Holland. Holland looked just as stunned. He hadn’t mentioned to Miko that she wasn’t to say anything about their future together, he hadn’t thought he’d needed to. Yet, here he was and Miko had spilled the proverbial beans.

“Oh, wow!” Was all Laura could manage as she tried to regain her composure. “That’s…well, that’s fabulous!” She forced a smile as she stared at Holland.

‘Well…” Holland tried to find a middle ground between pleasing Miko and keeping his mother happy. “We have been talking about it, but we’re not engaged or anything yet.” Holland saw the relief on his mother’s face. Sure she had wanted him to find a nice girl, but finding someone and talking marriage so quickly was something she had not been prepared for.

“Yes. We have talked about getting married from the first day one!” Miko beamed over at Holland who reached over and placed his hand on top of hers.

“Well, it’s about time that Holland found a nice young girl to take care of him!” Laura looked kindly at Miko. Miko nodded furiously.

“Yes, in my family the wife…she always take care of the family. She do the cooking and cleaning and stuff like that…” Laura nodded.

“Goodness knows Holland needs someone who will clean up after him!” Holland shook his head but Miko laughed.

“I will do that, I don’t mind. I feel very lucky that he choose me.” Holland crossed his fingers that Miko wouldn’t let it slip that he had found her on a mail order bride website.

“I’m the lucky one.” He broke in. “Miko is amazing, mom. She is very down to Earth and I just know you two will get along so well!” Laura nodded.

“I’m sure we will. Anyone who loves my son is amazing in my book!” Holland frowned.

“Hey!” Laura chuckled.

“So, Miko, how did you and Holland meet?” Holland lowered his eyes to the table, he could already feel his mother’s accusing stare blaming him of irresponsibility.
