Book 12: Chapter 25
“Mommy Vyvyan.”
We returned just as the song for the dance ended. Everybody who was dancing scattered with smiles. The venue was quite chaotic, so nobody noticed our disappearance before. However, Vyvyan seemed to instantly notice that Mommy Elizabeth had changed her clothes.
Mommy Vyvyan came up to me and looked at me feeling suspicious. I knew why she was so tense, as she, too, changed before the last ball. She was definitely thinking about that after noticing Mommy Elizabeth had changed, as well. She must’ve deliberately come over to inquire about it.
“Did something happen between you and Elizabeth?”
“No.” I shook my head.
I was upfront with Mommy Vyvyan, since I knew that she’d definitely believe me. Lying would be pointless, after all; Mommy Vyvyan could tell if I’m lying. In a quiet tone, she said, “Son, remember that it’s fine for you to do it with Mommy, but you can’t have those sorts of thoughts for Elizabeth. Elizabeth is your Mom. The people’s evaluation of you will be ruined by that woman!! She’s your mom in name! If you can’t hold it in, you can come to Mommy, but not Elizabeth!”
I smiled: “You’re my Mom, too. How could I go looking for you when I have those desires? Yes, I did do it with you, but it was force majeure every time, right?”
“Was it? It was force majeure?” Mommy Vyvyan amorously chuckled, and then gestured for me to come over with her finger. She quietly said, “That time a few days ago wasn’t force majeure.”
“That… That was because you were too pretty that I couldn’t stop myself! It counts as force majeure, too!!”
