All right, son. I'm here. You told me you wanted to talk to me. Yes, dad. I'm sorry to bother（烦扰） you. I know you have to go to work.

  What are you talking about? You are my son. I will always have time for you. Now（现在） tell me, what do you want to talk about with me? I'm sure it's important. Well, nothing serious.

  In fact, I feel a little ashamed（惭愧(的)）. I don't know whether（ 是否） to tell you. Oh, come on. Whatever（任何） it is, I want to hear it. Okay（好）, just tell me. Well, thank you.

  There is someone in the school. It is a girl, right? That's what you want to tell me? You want to tell me that you have a girlfriend? No, I mean, not yet. There is a girl I like a lot, but she's not my girlfriend, dad.

  She's my friend. Her name is Anna. She's so beautiful. I like her a lot. Oh, I see. Then what is the problem?

  Tell her that you like her. I know you're not a child anymore. You're a teenager. It is normal you like girls. If you're asking for my permission, you have my complete trust（信任）. Just bring her home when she's your girlfriend.

  I am sure your mother would like to know her. And of course, me too. My son. That is the problem, dad. I like her a lot and I want her to be my girlfriend, but I don't know. I don't know how to tell her that I like her.

  It's the first time I will do something like that. I don't know if she feels as I do. Maybe she doesn't like me. What can I do? All right. I understand.

  Don't worry. I will help you, my son. Telling a girl you like her sounds simple. But actually doing it can be nerve（神经）-wracking. I will tell you a few ways you can express your emotions（情感）. To see if she likes you back.

  Like to drop some hints（暗示）. Give her a few compliments（称赞）. Yeah. Give her a few compliments about her outfit（机构） or her nice laugh.
