Liberty responded to Duncan, “Mrs. Lewis really appreciates Ms. Harmon. It seems like you and Ms. Harmon get along well. You should spend some quality time together. Ms. Harmon is a lovely and capable young lady. I can tell she’s a career-oriented woman.”
Ms. Harmon appeared to be a good match for Duncan.
Duncan replied honestly, “That’s true. Lily is indeed a career woman, and she’s smart too. We do get along. But wait, Liberty, what are you suggesting? Do you want me to spend more time with her? Do you think we make a good couple?”
Liberty cheerfully responded, “We’re adults, Mr. Lewis. I’ve been in your shoes. I know your mom has been nudging you to settle down. Mrs. Lewis clearly takes a liking to Ms. Harmon, and since Ms. Harmon gets along with you and is now living with you, I think you understand what your mom wants.”
“There’s no reason to feel embarrassed about it. You’re single, and so is Ms. Harmon. If things are going well between you two, you should consider taking your relationship to the next level. Don’t miss out on someone who is good for you.”
Liberty offered her advice as someone experienced. “Mr. Lewis, you’re not getting any younger. At thirty-six years old, what’s wrong with dating? Don’t be too selective. Ms. Harmon is a wonderful woman and a great match for you.”
Duncan looked at Liberty, suspecting his mother had influenced her encouragement to pair him with Lily.
While Duncan held no animosity towards Lily, he felt no romantic chemistry to take the next step.
“Liberty, did my mom say something to you?”
Duncan recalled the first time Liberty met Lily, prompting his question. He had a feeling that his mom had spoken to Liberty.
“No. Mrs. Lewis came by my diner the other day and stopped in for a chat. We talked a bit, as a mom who’s… ”
A thirty-six-year-old son remains single, and his mother is eager to discuss him while searching for potential partners. I understand her concern.
“I’ll probably feel the same way as Mrs. Lewis if Sonny turns thirty-six and still has no romantic prospects.”
“Don’t blame your mom for being persistent, Mr. Lewis. That’s how most parents are. You’ll see when you get married and have kids yourself.”
Duncan was momentarily speechless.
After a pause, he replied, “You’re younger than I am. Don’t speak to me as if you’re older.”
“Oh, I wouldn’t presume to do that. I’m just offering advice from my own experiences. I’ve been through marriage, while you don’t even have a girlfriend yet. You lack the experience of sharing your life with someone else.”
