Mary talked to Yoko for the whole day and didn't even bother going to school. Mathias and Shelly sat at a park kissing and keeping this affair from Mary. He knew he was doing something wrong but he was starting to feel lonely only because Mary was spending time with their son.
Decades of your love just slowly starting to waste away there's always someone right there beside you for thousands of years, maybe that's what Mathias felt at that time. Yoko sensed the pair getting closer once he made his way to see his mother and to think he really loved her. Mary seemed so happy talking to him but it made her wonder where Mathias and Shelly was it somehow concerned her.
Yoko took a sip of Coffee as Mary did the same" So Yoko how have you been, it's really nice to see you. For some reason, I always had these vivid memories of you. Holding you loving you. You was so precious!" Yoko smiled at her cheerfully having similar features as his father.
"Yeah I bet I was, um so did you and dad get close again?"
"We are getting closer than ever! My memory is dull right now, I believe I can remember everything if I could it would be great. Is something going on with Mathias and Shelly right now? They seem to go out for quite some time?"
Yoko gave her a sudden look of sadness she just has this feeling of lonesome. "Umm Shelly and father will be back soon. I feel it would be best for us to talk privately. When you hugged me Shelly kissed his cheek luckily I turned you the opposite way just in time. I suppose they're making out at the park right now behind your back. See these cons are lying bastard and I Finally caught them in the act, I just needed some evidence."
Mary threw her coffee cup against the wall shattering her favorite mug, Yoko seemed surprised by his mother's action.
"I knew it! The way she looked at him all the time even when we started school always looked like they were made for each other. Con artist? Don't you mean identity theft?"
"You know mom back then you use to date one of the sliver fox clan members. You told me a lot of things about him I have seen him before he seemed really caring he missed you a ton even when you died. He kept a major secret which surprised me if I tell you it's really going to throw you off completely. That's what you need, mother I will always support you in whatever you do because you have always been there for me when Mathias was not."
"Why are you calling your Father Mathias just call him dad. I know it's hard-." Yoko shook his head holding his mother's hand she seemed confused.
"Mother everything that you know about that man you've been talking to at this moment is a lie he is not your husband he isn't even my father." Yoko bit his tongue harshly not wanting to confess his father's name until it was the right time. For his father to say who he was himself "That man outside with shelly is actually clan leader of the Sliver Foxs her so you've basically been with traitors all this time. That man is Suki Legion, a con man in the underworld. I have been looking everywhere for you, it hurts me that a Tengu replaced your memories with vivid ones. I want to kill both of them mother"
Mary was just completely confused it was so sudden "um why don't you sit there and I'll have a talk with this con artist myself we do need to keep the act going tough. Yoko this all feels very sudden. I didn't think about all of this happening since your my son. I trust you more than ever now since you told me that. I thank you for protecting my heart before it can truly become hurt. I need to be strong for you."
Yoko stood up helping her off the floor as they headed out the door, he opened it seeing Mathias standing there with an uneasy stare his eyes a light greyish tone hair long. As his con artist ways, he's reached a peak in the futile relationship. Once Mary was gone from his sight completely he can marry Shelly instead. He still had the power of clan leader knowing that a particular is out looking for her as we speak.
Mary looked down not knowing what to say as she begins to feel woozy stumbling pretending to feel his effects on her "umm so it's actually you Mathias, that's great we can start over fresh. It seems like I haven't met you once well-." Mathias placed his index finger on her lip, getting slightly irritated whispered in her ear as she blushed deeply Yoko minding his own business from afar as his fox ears twitched.
He smirked at her "So what I'm going to do is take out those pesky memories from which you made with those fakes. I only was able to see you during college and of course, we went to the library with each other what Shelly said about me was true, everything else wasn't real so next time keep your head up. Though you are my wife it's my absolute responsibility to take care of our family, we have done it before nothing brand new."
"What about those girls? When I went on that date it seemed I don't know it seem weird."
"I went out and talked to them but one of them made me mad so so killed her and killed her buddies as well sorry Mary I have anger issues. I don't take them out on you but other people or things my dear. Sweet dreams ." Mary felt a sharp pinch on her neck she fell asleep slowly dreaming happy thoughts as he carried her, Mary's son Yoko seemed to cry waiting so long to see his mother again it was bittersweet. Mathias kissed her forehead leaping to the underworld.
Mary awoken to the feeling warmth wrapped around her body cuddling up to the figure. Her eyes opened seeing Mathias staring at her with dark luminous eyes.
"How do you feel Mary?"
"I feel a bit strange my memory seems to be something but our family. It's weird to me."
"You have nothing to worry about its okay now your safe, we will go back to school tomorrow if that's what you want."
"Yeah I definitely need to go back, I would hate to fail my classes and start over."
Mathias closed his eyes " That's not possible I made sure everything is paid for your tuition. You have nothing to worry about, Please don't ever forget me, Darling."
"I don't think I can ever forget you guys, though I spark triggered memories did you manipulate my memories?"
Mathias pets her head " just a few but this way back when we started our relationship, I replaced that fake with images of me and you. Let me start getting dinner ready you just relax and enjoy the atmosphere here."
Mary nodded feeling a kiss on her lips as he got up leaving the room. Things are slightly different doesn't mean that Mathias is a bad guy it's just going to be weird now. Though she needs to find out where her real husband is, where and how to find him is important.
