Staying Over

Suddenly, I saw a scene of my mother scolding Ace and Ace looking all remorseful. The corners of my lips curved upwards before a small laugh escaped from me.

That would be so funny…

“Rina!”

I heard my mother calling my name and knew that they were finally finished with their private conversation. Time for me to return to the living room to face the two of them again. When I sat back down in the chair next to Ace, the atmosphere in the room seemed to have changed completely. The strain and heavy atmosphere had entirely disappeared.

“What did you two talk about?” I asked curiously.

“Nothing much. I just told your mother here how serious I am about you and how you’ve always refused to be my girlfriend,” Ace said before he smirked devilishly at me.

“Why did you tell her that?!” I snapped at him.
