Long Overdue
Luíz Adriano Alencar da Silva was visiting New York City once again. It had been a long time since his last visit, but this visit was a bit more personal than business. He hadn't seen his son in awhile, and there were things he needed to look into about his son. Particularly this woman he had been dating.
The flight in had been long, and though he was greeted warmly by his son, he was getting too old to spring right into action after a flight. Luíz begged off meeting Stephanie until he was more presentable.
Before a quick nap and exercises in the hotel's gym, Luíz used his pull and influence to get a nice, quiet table for three at Eleven Madison Park. He sent the time for Marcelo and his girlfriend to meet him and got ready.
He tried to be a little early, so he could watch how his son and his girlfriend interacted as they approached. Over two years with one woman was certainly a record for his son. That he had not proposed marriage was slightly worrying to the Brazilian father considering the last relationship before Marcelo left for the States. For now, Luíz needed to meet and learn.
Then he would start asking questions.

"It will get me ready for the day after where Marcelinho and I roll up our shirtsleeves and get up to our elbows into Veridian Dynamics' American branch."

He nodded obediently at his father's plans. He wasn't sure, but he thought he had been momentarily cut out of the conversation. It did give him time to finish up his course at least.
Even if he was not remotely hungry anymore with what he assumed would be a bad conversation for him at home.
