This was one special night. It wasn’t my regular night with friends and beer. Tonight was family and beer. How can beer be there without beer pong? Beer pong was special. My grandfather played beer pong and though he had let go of beer a long time back, his skill at beer pong remained. Whenever he got a table and beer, he had a go at getting a beer pong table done for us.
My parents were mean drinkers and great beer pong players. Both of them had fallen in love in high school. Both of them went to the same college, and married soon after they got their jobs. I had been dating Joshua for over two years now. He was a guy from England who had settled in here in Mississippi. And let me tell you, you won’t find a family as cool as mine. So I get their support in whatever I do. I have a younger sister, Lily, who just turned 21 and we were celebrating because she could now drink! Happy times for all of us.
So we had got hold of this beer pong table from our neighbors since we had to keep ourselves entertained. It wasn’t one of those particularly stunning beer pong tables or anything but it was enough for our party. We just need a beer pong table. Despite the time we have been together, this was the first family party Joshua was attending so understandably he was feeling weird. As it is, being with the girl’s parents isn’t something any guy looks forward to. Especially when these parents are drinking loads.
So we set up our beer pong table in our drawing room. We aren’t exactly swimming in money so fitting in the table was a little bit of an issue. But when there’s a will, there’s a way. And this was a party. So we had plenty of that much needed “will”…
I was paired with Joshua. My parents were together. My grandmother had died sometime back, so grandpa was paired up with Lily. Unfair advantage, I thought. Grandpa is absolutely terrific at beer pong and he doesn’t even drink. He was supposed to win, which eventually did happen. But the surprising thing was my parents. I have never seen them drink like this and they were flat on the floor kissing each other. Joshua began to eye me suspiciously with a wry smile. I wasn’t doing that and I just stuck my tongue out at him. We carried our parents to their room and left them there. The four of us played for quite some time. Joshua stayed back for the night. The beer pong table took the load for us. This particular beer pong table had serviced us pretty well. It was probably the third or fourth party on this beer pong table.
The morning came soon. And all of us woke up to a terrible headache. Except my dear grandpa. He made us tea. And suddenly made an announcement. Lily, was pregnant. Whoa! That was some announcement. I was actually shocked. But the guess the hangover took the edge off. I asked her who the dad was. She started crying. Not good for a day after your birthday. She stopped crying, looked at me and told me that it was Joshua. And my grandfather started laughing. My family was so damn weird.
