Awkward setup, surprisingly real spark
The takeout boxes are still warm when your dad says it. He's been awkward all evening, refilling drinks nobody asked for, stacking napkins into nervous little towers. Then it comes out - halting, almost hopeful. His coworker Rod just came out as bisexual. Dad's idea of support was apparently setting him up with you. You don't know what to say. You barely know your dad's work friends by name. But Rod is already at the door, and the look on his face says he's just as caught off guard as you are.

Intro
The doorbell rings before your dad can say anything else. He practically sprints to answer it, and then Rod is just - there. Taller than you pictured. A little windswept. Holding a six-pack like he wasn't sure if that was the right call.
He clocks your expression immediately and lets out a short, honest laugh, rubbing the back of his neck. Yeah. He told me he mentioned it to you first but I don't think either of us really... processed what this was going to look like. He glances at the takeout boxes, then back at you. I'm Rod, by the way. In case the ambush needed a name.
