Rudy and Rebecca were eating breakfast in the kitchen. Rebecca was shooting glances at Rudy, but Rudy was focused on his phone.
He was chatting with Alice, so naturally, he was smiling while looking at his phone.
[Are you ready?] Rudy sent a text.
A few seconds later, Alice replied with, [My hairs are ssy?! What should I do?!]
[Take a bath?] Rudy suggested as he scoffed softly.
Of course, he was simply trying to tease her.
[I already did!]
[Just kidding. Don't worry about it. Your hair has always been like that. And to be honest, it doesn't matter much since we are going to swim, so they are going to get ssy in the end, anyway.]
After a few seconds of typing, Alice replied: [You are not a girl, so you won't understand!]
"Yeah… right…"
'Do all girls say the sa thing? Elise said the sa thing once.'
Seeing Rudy smiling like that while looking at his phone and eating breakfast, Rebecca's face twitched; that was sothing that every parent hated seeing.
Rebecca frowned her face and cleared her throat before saying, "Excuse , mister. You should know that phones aren't allowed on my table."
Rudy raised his head to look up at Rebecca to see her glaring at him with a furious look on her face.
[I will co to pick you up after 15 minutes.] Rudy sent it to Alice and placed his phone on the table.
"Happy?"
"I only said it because you shouldn't use your phone while eating. You can play so videos or movies if you want to, but using a phone such as scrolling through or typing while eating is bad," Rebecca stated.
"Yeah."
"Do you know, I read an article which said that the phone's screen has more bacteria than a dirty toilet seat."
"Eww! Mom! Co on~!" Rudy placed his spoon to the side and said, "You had to ntion this while eating?"
"What do you an? I get it that it's gross, but you should be more grossed out by the fact I told you!" Rebecca retorted. "Using your phone while eating is just like eating in the toilet seat."
"..." Rudy squinted his eyes at Rebecca and uttered, "You did not just say that."
"I did. What will you do?"
"..."
"Huh? I am your mother and don't you dare raise your voice against ," Rebecca said in a haughty tone. "This also reminded that I have been giving you too much freedom lately."
"..."
"From today onwards, you have to co back before 7 in the evening. And I want you in your room before 8 PM," Rebecca announced. "Also, no more visiting Eric on weekends. You are only allowed to go there once every two weeks, got it?"
"What will you do if I don't obey your rules? Will you beat ? Or kick out or sothing?" Rudy asked with an annoyed look on his face.
Rebecca raised her brows and said, "I will do sothing that would make you hate ."
"And how is that bad?" Rudy asked with a scoff.
"Please tell you did not just say that."
"I totally did, and I can say it again if you want to."
Rebecca glared into Rudy's eyes for a few seconds before pouting her face.
"..."
"So be it, then! I won't talk to you unless you regret what you just said," Rebecca got up from the table and walked away.
"..."
She entered her room and closed the door before locking it from the inside.
"..."
Rudy watched everything with a dumbfounded expression on his face as though he was having a hard ti believing what happened at the last minute.
Angelica ca out of Rudy's body and said, "That was very teenager-like. Congratulations."
"You are rubbing salt on my wound, Angelica…" Rudy muttered.
"But you are the one who wounded yourself and gave the salt. So of course, I would run it, and not only on your wounds but all over your body," Angelica remarked.
Rudy facepald himself and uttered, "Don't change the phrase like that."
SIGH!
Angelica sighed and uttered, "I still don't understand why you acted like that. I am not saying it was out of your character, but it kind of was. I hardly see you talk back to your mother."
"I don't think I talked back to her. It was more like I said sothing that I didn't like." Rudy looked at Angelica and uttered in a low voice: "Surely, you don't think that ntioning toilets and such while eating is appropriate, right?"
"Well, she said she was stating a fact, and I think she was telling the truth."
Rudy squinted his eyes and nodded as he uttered, "I see. I see. So you are taking her side."
"I am not taking anyone's side here! I was just saying how you are not acting like an adult," Angelica remarked. "You keep saying 'I am ntally an adult', but you rarely act like one. I an, it's cool because most adults are boring. But—"
"By that logic, mom is older than , and she didn't act according to her age either," Rudy shrugged.
"..."
Rudy continued eating breakfast while staring at Angelica. Seemingly, waiting for her to react to his comnts.
"Like mother, like son…" Angelica muttered.
A few minutes later, when Rudy finished eating his breakfast, he washed the dishes and wiped the floor using telekinesis.
Then, he walked and stood in front of Rebecca's room.
KNOCK~ KNOCK!
"Mom?"
"It's open," Rebecca replied from the other side of the door.
Rudy opened the door and entered Rebeca's room, imdiately getting greeted by Rebecca's scent.
Rebeca was sitting on the bed, and she was glaring at Rudy with puffed cheeks.
"I… am sorry. I didn't an anything that I said…" Rudy uttered in a low and calm voice.
Rebecca spread her arms and said, "Give a hug."
"....!"
Rudy got on the bed and hugged Rebecca, but not too tightly.
However, Rebecca hugged Rudy tightly and pressed her body against Rudy.
"...!" Rudy could feel sothing soft pressing against his chest, but he had disabled all the thoughts from his mind.
"I love you…"
"...."
