The girl's palms began to sweat heavily and her breathing was withdrawn.

"When will you ever learn that you're never good at charades," Yuffie flashed the sweating girl a lop-sided grin. "…Tifa."

"H-How did you know it was me?"

The smaller brunette let out an arrogant laugh and she held out two fingers. Tifa watched her pace the room like a detective that just solved a huge case.

"First reason! Your voice was a bit off…if you were to sound like my Aerith it must be flippy, but soft and feminine-like. Second! And probably the most obvious reason," she pointed at Tifa's chest. "Aerith doesn't have boobs as big as yours!"

After hearing those words, Tifa's hands flew instantly to cover her chest as if it was being exposed to public. Yuffie crossed her arms and grinned at her brilliance while her bodyguard shook his head disdainfully at the side.

"Ok…you caught me," Tifa whispered in defeat. "I'm sorry for deceiving you, Ms. Yuffie."

The little brunette shook her head and smiled. She pranced her way towards the large window of the room and slid the curtains open. Clear, blue skies greeted them and the light of the sun illuminated the beauty of the wide, pink room they were in.

"Out again, huh?" Yuffie sighed.

"She's going out more often," said the older woman with a smile, then her voice lowered to a whisper. "Must be that man's doing…"

Yuffie's head sharply turned to the maid's direction at the word 'man' with her pupils narrowed of disbelief.

"Man? What man?"

Tifa was about to open her lips when a loud honking was heard from outside. The little brunette, who was closer to the window, looked outside to check what was going on.

"Hey, isn't that…" She paused when she realized who had parked in the entrance of the manor.

Tifa almost ran to the window when Yuffie covered her gaping mouth. The maid's chocolate brown eyes widened in horror as she saw a voluptuous woman coming out of a black limousine and into the mansion.

"T-The mistress!"

Tifa bit her lips as she ran to-and-fro with her hands brushing up against each other. She almost forgot the two guests that stared at her panicking state.

Ms. Aerith hasn't arrived yet what should I do? Should I face Madam in this disguise? Would she find out that I'm not Aerith? What should I do? What should I—

The brunette crossed and uncrossed her arms. She bit her lip and tapped her foot. She walked in circles with a furrowed brow. When Yuffie couldn't take much longer of Tifa's actions, she inhaled heavily and held her breath. Vincent noticed this familiar gesture and he prepared himself for the worst.

"DAMMIT TIFA! SNAP OUT OF IT!"

Tifa returned to her senses by the shrill voice of the little mafia princess. Her heart almost leapt through her mouth of the fright she had just experienced. After gaining her sanity, the maid flopped down stunned with mental exhaustion and sheer shock. Yuffie and Vincent watched her fall on Aerith's bed in bewilderment.

"Guess, I overdid it…?" Yuffie crossed her arms in front of her chest and shook her little head guiltily.

Vincent, too, crossed his arms and nodded his head in agreement. The tiny brunette pouted at him and shrugged.

"Guess we'll be taking it from here Vinnie," she ran towards the door, excitedly. "Commencing: Operation Cover Aerith!"

The somber bodyguard bowed as the Yuffie passed by him and closed Aerith's door as he walked out with a sigh.


Sneak Peek: What ever could the mischievous little mafia princess do to make time for Aerith's return? Will Tifa gain consciousness before Jenova finds out her only daughter is gone? All that and more…
