"WHAT!"
"Oh… oh… he's just---" Mimi began.
"That's soo cool!" Yamato's dad answered without letting Mimi finish up.
Yamato's jaw dropped to the ground. "What the---"
"No, Mr. Ishida, he's definitely joking. Right?" she poked Yamato with her elbow.
"Yeah!" Yamato broke out suddenly. "It's a big joke, dad. I'm just really testing whether you like Mimi or not,"
Good grief! He thought. What was I thinking when I said that? He glanced at Mimi who gave him a fiery look. Geez…
"Oh," his father said. "That's okay, at least you've known it."
"Y-yeah right, sir." Mimi replied, relieved on his reaction. Yamato… you're going to pay! Huh… I'm so glad…whew!
"I think we better get Mimi back home, you think so, Mimi?" Yamato poked her this time.
"Y-yeah! I am so tired about today's happenings." She agreed immediately. "I am so pleased to meet you, Mr. Ishida."
"Me too, Mimi. I hope your relationship with my son last."
"Y-yeah, sir. Thanks for tonight."
"You are most welcome."
"Oh, my! It's already late! What will your mom tell me if she knows you're not yet home!" Yamato acted, feeling quite silly.
"I'll go take the both of you to Mimi's house."
"W….HHAAATTTT….?"
-------------------------------
"No, dad! This is our problem. Let me handle this on my own." Yamato said seriously, yanking his dad's arm. "Mimi, let's go."
"Okay---" Mimi held his hand as he offered it.
"My son, trust me this time. I know I have failed you a lot of times." He said. "This won't do any harm to your relationship with my future in-laws."
His father smiled. Yeah right, he's called the 'Snake'. Once he bites on something, he makes sure he's not letting go of it. Damn!
He sighed, giving in to him. Mimi hand-signaled him to come to her, and so he did. As they were on their way to Mimi's house, they can't help but argue about a while ago.
"What's going on here? What if mom and your dad talk about my independence thing? That was my excuse for living with you!"
"Everything will go perfectly, I promise you." He tried to clam her down. "All you have to do is to ride on what I am going to say, understood?"
"Hai. Wakari desu." She replied, nodding and crossing her fingers. "I hope you do well this time,"
Yamato showed one of his cute glares and Mimi was flushed. She shook her head and sighed. She has nothing to do with it. It's an all natural thing. Then Yamato opened the door of the car, and later on the three of them walked towards the Tachikawa residence.
"Well, Yamato, I think it's better if we tell your dad that my parents do not know about... me staying at your place."
"I guess your parents MUST know it already. What if they suddenly find you? They will be surprised." Yamato argued. "There's nothing wrong with that anyway."
"I told them it's a different place,"
"Let's just create another story." He held her hand and Mimi knew that everything's gonna be fine.
-------------------------------
"Here we are," Yamato said.
"Quite large, eh?" his father exclaimed. "This is too good to be real. I knew that my son has real good taste when it comes to women."
Mimi just don't know how not to get flattered all the time. Yamato, on the other hand feels less tense. As they door-belled, Sora was the one to open the door.
"Sora!"
"Ms. Mimi! Oh, my god! You look so pretty!" Sora exclaimed. She stole a glance at the silent Yamato. "Come in! Who's with you?"
"Mr. Ishida, this is Sora, Sora this is Yamato's father." Mimi introduced them. "By the way, are mom and dad around?"
"Yeah. They're here."
The rest of them entered in the Tachikawa Mansion. After a while...
"Mimi! My cupcake!" her mother exclaimed, hugging her tight. "wow, honey, you sure look prettier tonight!"
"Hi mom! I miss you!" Mimi cheerfully said.
"Who's with you? Oh, it's your prince... what's his name again?"
"It's Yamato, mom."
"Oh hi, Yamato! Sorry for my forgetfulness..."
"It's fine with me," he replied. "Um... Mrs. Tachikawa, here's my father. He came to see you... and err..."
"Well, hello Madame!" his father greeted casually. "I am Yamato's father, I've heard that our children are getting very, very close!"
"Hi Mr. Father of Yamato! What should I call you then?" she said. "Nisa, get us some tea here!" she called to a maid.
"Just call me Ishida, I prefer being called by our last name."
"Oh, is that so? Well then, hello!" she said.
Moments later, Yamato is getting bored and annoyed. It has been two hours and it's getting late too. They still have classes tomorrow. Mimi, on the other hand, was already sleeping silently on the couch. She didn't care whether they're there for about a long time. Suddenly, Yamato nudged her in the arm.
"Hey," he said. "Get us out of here, quick!"
"Oh, why... where am I?" she muttered softly, looking around. "Oh right!"
"C'mon, do something quick! I don't want to spend the rest of my night here. It's so boring. Besides, I am sleepy." Yamato said.
"Um, mom, Mr. Ishida?" Mimi interrupted their talk about golf courses, "I think we should go. We still have classes tomorrow and we have to get up early."
"Oh my! It has been a great talk, Ishida! I nearly forgot about the time!" Mimi's mother said.
"Yeah, me too! I'll go and visit you another time, will that be okay?"
"Yes, definitely!"
"We gotta go, thanks for the tea," Yamato said courteously.
"Bye mom!" Mimi bade. Wooh! At least Yamato's father didn't tell the truth about me staying at Yamato's house... thank God.
-------------------------------
"So long, dad. Take care," Yamato said.
"Uhm, bye... dad?" Mimi awkwardly said. She waved her hand.
"Goodbye!" Yamato's dad said as his car moved.
"We're safe!" Mimi exclaimed. "Alright!"
"Do you really have to call my father dad?" Yamato suddenly asked.
"Well, he told me to do so..." Mimi was blushing,
"Alright, I don't care anyway. Let's go to sleep." He simply answered. before he proceed to his room, he took one more glance at Mimi.
"Mimi..." he said and she look at him.
"Yes?"
"You look wonderful tonight," Yamato replied, hasting to go to his room. When he look at himself at the mirror, his face was flushed.
Mimi just smiled to herself. "Arigatou, Yamato-kun..." she whispered.
