Chapter 12 - Yandere
...
Lisa's Mother became disappointed on not seeing her daughter going away yet, and along with the little puppy look that was being thrown at her, Lisa's Mother, Lily heaved a sigh in defeat as she got off the ebd, still dressed in her sexy nightgown as she approached Lisa and cuddled her little body into her arms and spoke with a strained voice,
"That's true, baby. But your Mother was on the phone talking with your Dad, when I heard some vixen speaking in the background... no, I mean I recalled that your Father had not been resting properly for the last few days. Before he felt sick, I decided to leave the shoot early and slipped something into his... no, I mean that I helped your overworked Father get some sleep and brought him here to rest."
Lisa's mother, Lily, might not have been on guard against her child's intelligence due to her young age and immaturity. The current Lisa, however slowly, began to piece together the parts of the puzzle from the clues revealed by Lily's frustration-laced words and realised something shocking.
'Holy hell. My own revered Mother drugged my Father to sleep! And she must have been planning to do something to him earlier, too. He is unconscious already and yet still... Mother still wants to do 'that'? Not to mention that... I heard something like vixen just earlier. Was that jealousy hidden in her words?'
'No, wait a second here. My mother must be a kind and beautiful angel, as described by my Father, right? She is the only one trusted by him in the entire world, completely, right?'
'Then... who is this jealous and obsessive lady in front of me? Also, she seemed frustrated over the fact that I ended up coming here, too. I might not have thought too much about it, but... these chills that I have been getting for a while now, these don't seem to be normal at all.'
Making up her mind to abandon her poor, drugged father to his own devices, Lisa spoke to her mother Lily urgently,
"I-I am just happy to see you again, Mom! And, father as well. I don't have school tomorrow, as it would be Sunday. You and Father sleep well. I shall go back to my room now."
Hearing Lisa's delightful words, a charming smile came upon her mother's face as she kissed Lisa's face lovingly and spoke,
...
"Alright. That's my good baby. Now, quickly go back to sleep. I will ask your uncle and aunt to take you somewhere fun tomorrow. Rest well for tonight."
As Lisa stared at her mother's face, dripping with happiness at last, Lisa's curiosity got the better of her as she asked,
"W-Won't Mother and Father come along for the trip too?"
Lily thought about Lisa's suggestion seriously for a while, but shook her head in denial, as she spoke again,
"No, your Mom can go on a date some other day. I need to bond properly with your Dad~... I mean, he needs to rest properly for now. I think that he would be taking a day off to relax at home. Oh! And I happen to have time off tomorrow as well! So, us two... we would be sleeping here together in our 'love nest'... in our bedroom for the entire day tomorrow, hehehe... Just enjoy your time with your Uncle and Aunty, alright?"
"O-Okay, Mother. I am going back now."
Lisa couldn't put up a struggle against her mother's strong words, as she was let go of Lily's arms and began to walk out of her parents' bedroom.
After glancing over one last time at her father with sympathy, she walked away to the toilet and relieved her urges before going back to sleep, while her last thoughts were-
'RIP, Father. You really chose the wrong 'Angel' for this lifetime.'
She didn't even want to play on her GBA, as Lisa cuddled her blanket and tried to erase the scary thoughts about her Mother's true personality.
...
As the first ray of morning fell upon the city, Lisa woke up, courtesy of the new alarm clock she had gotten her uncle to buy. Since it was a Sunday, there were no schools open and hence no morning rush. Lisa lazily went to brush and shower after getting up from her bed.
Previously, she had planned to spend her entire day happily gaming on her GBA, but after her mother had declared her decree last night, it was a given that she would have to let the 'love birds' rest in their room and obediently spend the day outside with her uncle's family.
Apparently, her Mother had already posted a message about the matter on the family group chat, with her Aunt agreeing to it almost immediately.
Lisa tried to ignore the obvious noises coming from behind the door of her parents' bedroom as she walked past it. Thankfully, her uncle's family lived in another partition of the house; otherwise, there would have been some awkward moments that morning for sure.
At breakfast, her Uncle informed them that he would be manning the store by himself, leaving Lisa's cousin and her aunt to go out and enjoy the day together.
After recalling a certain friend from her school, Lisa asked her Aunt, Mary, about something important,
"Aunty, can I bring a friend of mine along with us? I might enjoy the day a lot more if she is there with us."
Mary chuckled to themselves as she stroked Lisa's hair and spoke with a humorous tone,
"Oh? Is that with the new friend of yours who gifted you your gaming gadget? If so, then I am in for it too! But we must get permission from her guardian before doing that. Madison, what do you think? Would it be fine for Lisa's friend to hang out with us?"
In contrast to her mother's excitement, Madison looked unmotivated, with some dark circles under her eyes from working overnight on her latest project. She just nodded weakly once and nibbled on her food with an emotionless and dazed expression.
Aunt Mary smiled gratefully as she clenched her fist and declared with a loud voice,
"Alright~!! Then, I declare today to be the day that we, the ladies of the Cook family, go out and have a blast all by ourselves~!"
"With my friend along with us, too, right?"
"Oh yeah, her too. Let's go, let's go~! Time is running out! Madison, bring over the picnic bag to the front door. I will pack our lunch for the day in the meantime. Lily you... just sit here till then. And, are you bringing your gaming gadget with you today?"
Lisa shook her head as she pointed towards her bedroom and spoke,
"No, it's put in charging mode now. I will play when we get back from our outing. I want to enjoy my time together with aunty first."
Aunt Mary's heart trembled with emotions as she scooped up Lisa in her arms and kissed her cheeks lovingly many times, before leaving to rush towards the kitchen.
