Chapter 99 Visiting Mitshua’s House
Hearing the phone's notification sound I took it out of my pocket and checked, a message was sent by Claire.
In it she bragged about how she fooled Shouta into going somewhere for a picnic then backed out at the very last second, saying she was not feeling good thus wasting his entire day, she even deleted the message sent by Mitshua on Shouta's face without him even being aware of it.
I guess Mitshua gonna be sucking because Shouta didn't reply nor come to see her haha~
'This Claire is really capable, it seems I would need to give her some rewards next time I meet her.'
"Okay, let's go to a cake shop."
It was about 7 pm, and most shops were still open.
Before going to Mitshua's home I headed to a cake shop along the way.
"It's time for the second part of my plan."
I didn't hesitate to buy one of the costliest cakes which looked hella cute.
Of Course, I made sure the baker wrote some special words on it~
..........
I was standing in front of Mitshua's home a big box
containing the cake I bought was in my hands.
The door opened and in front of me was the same mature woman who saw me and Mitshua kissed yesterday sneakily from the first floor.
She was without a doubt Mitshua's mom.
She was taken aback by seeing me.
"Hello, Auntie!"
"Hello" -she replied wryly.
"Aah ahem, it's the first time I am seeing you"
"Are youPerhaps one of Mitshua's friends?"
"Auntie, I am Elandor. Mitshua texted me in the morning that she was sick. I wanted to see her in the morning itself but how can we compromise our studies? If I did that, Mitshua would only feel sad about it."
"But even if it's late, it's not that late.. there are still some hours left for the day to be over. To compensate for coming late, I hope Auntie will like Mitshua's favourite cake that I bought on the way", I spoke in a righteous tone.
There were a lot of things on Mitshua's mom's mind. Yesterday, she saw her daughter kissing a boy she had never seen before, the point was her daughter didn't resist the kiss. Wasn't the one she liked Shouta? So why did she kiss without any resistance?
She wanted to ask her daughter but she just shut herself in the room and the next day she was sneezing badly and had a fever, as a result, she forgot to ask about it~
"Ahem, can you tell your auntie what is your relationship with my daughter? Friends don't seem to bring such big and seemingly expensive cakes at their doors?"
-Her eyes narrowed a little.
"Didn't Auntie see what I and Mitshua did sneakily yesterday from the window?"
"How can a girl let someone other than her boyfriend kiss her so intimately?"
Hearing my words, auntie was surprised.
"Y-Youuuu, Y-ou are my daughter's boyfriend?"
"Why don't I know anything about it? Last time Mitshua said that she liked Shouta about 2 months ago.."
"Auntie, let's get inside first then talk, my hands are getting sore holding such a heavy cake."
"Aah, I am sorry I was so lost in what you said then forgot to ask you to come inside. Come in quickly."
Under my scheming Mitshua's mother was already hooked on my lies and invited me inside~
I knew it was once again time for my world-class award-winning acting.
'Even though it's so shameless but I have already stopped so low, it doesn't matter if I act a little more.'
-I followed behind the mature lady inside the house.
She took the cake from me and kept it on a shelf and shortly served me tea, with some biscuits.
She was looking at me curiously as we both sat across the table.
I knew she wanted to know the details badly, after all, it was a normal thing for a mother to know what was going on with her daughter's life, right?
"Auntie, where's Mitshua?"
"She is sleeping upstairs in her room."
'___'
The silence between us was getting awkward, I decided to be the first to open up or this atmosphere would only make me feel suffocating.
"I know you are worried about your daughter."
"Actually, I shouldn't be here. I had a promise with Mitshua that I couldn't visit her house. It was only on an impulse that I came here today."
Hearing me, I successfully caught the utmost attention of the lady sitting in front of me.
"Why shouldn't you be here? Aren't you Mitshua's boyfriend? So what's wrong with visiting her home?"
Seeing her taking more and more interest in the talk.
I decided to turn the situation up-a-notch.
I gave a deep sigh as my eyes drooped followed by my neck as my face gave an expression as if it was holding back some secret.
My expression only raised her worry as she thought I was holding back some secret related to her daughter.
"Auntie, since I already consider Mitshua as my girlfriend I can't hide this from you."
"It is wrong of me to hide it from you in the first place."
".it all began a month ago!"
"I just came back to this city after a long time"
I was technically not wrong since Erin, whose identity I borrowed, came back one month ago to investigate Shouta and Mitshua.
"I was walking back after shopping for some groceries when I saw a girl squatting on the road and crying bitterly."
"I was taken aback why such a pretty girl like her is crying so loudly?"
I slowly spoke my words to increase the suspense. As a result, I could even hear the deep breathings of the lady in front of me.
"I approached that girl. That girl seemed broken without any emotions, she was just lying and crying non-stop. After urging her repeatedly, I managed to take her to a park and even bought her an ice-cream."
"After some minutes of counselling, the girl finally told me her name was Mitshua~"
"I asked her what happened? Hearing my concerns and repeated urging she finally opened up, that the boy she liked named Shouta, already had intimate contact with various girls. He was a playboy and was playing with her feelings and after getting tired of Mitshua, he would surely dump her."
Mitshua's mother who was hearing attentively clenched her fists but she still resisted the urge to bang on the table as she wanted to know what happened next.
To add more drama, I shed some tears and wiped my eyes with my right hand as my tone became soberer.
"Then both of us talked a lot and discovered we had many things in common."
"I had to admit that I was really impressed, the more I talked the more I discovered how many talents and skills Mitshua had."
"Before parting we shared our phone number."
"Then we started messaging and talking with each other after that day."
"At first, we were both shy as Mitshua was going through her first heartbreak.. so I knew I must not be in a hurry and let her have proper time to adapt to the situation."
Mitshua's mom, who was listening earnestly, kept nodding at my words.
I knew she was already thinking of me from the perspective of a future son-in-law.
All I needed to do right now was to score more points from her~
