Chapter 2: Meet the Parents
*
**
*
Mimi and Matt arrived at the mansion about an hour later. The two had barely spoken since the ride, every time one of them started a conversation, it would end up with insults. The ride finally ended and the both of them were eager to get out. Pierre who looked like he's just escaped a zoo full of wild animals. He led Matt and Mimi into the mansion.
Their parents saw the look of anger on their children's faces and wondered what was going on.
"Matt is there something wrong." Nancy asked.
"Mom, dad, what are you doing here?" Matt asked.
"What do you mean what am I doing here? I wanted to meet my future daughter-in-law." Nancy replied looking at Mimi. "Oh Kat she's grown sooo much, the last time I've seen her she was still in her diapers."
Kat smiled. "I can say the same for Matt, aren't you a handsome fellow."
Matt blushed. "Uh, thanks Mrs. Tachikawa."
"Oh, no you don't, you call me Kat." Kat said.
"So how was the car ride?" Richard asked.
Matt was about to answer but Mimi spoke first. "It was horrible I never want to set foot in any vehicle with him." Mimi pointed.
"Hey, you were the one that started with the insults. And didn't your mother ever teach you not to point?" Matt replied.
Mimi was about to say something until Nancy spoke.
"So Mimi, I've heard you've done some modeling." Nancy said.
"Yes and singing as well," Kat said.
"That's right and acting, am I right?" Richard asked.
"Yes my daughter is very talented for her age, she's been singing since she was 3, isn't that right princess." Rick said.
"Dad," said a very deep red Mimi.
"Oh, Rick leave her alone, your making turn red." Kat said.
"So Matt how was your flight?" Nancy asked.
"It was great mom, until the ca--" Matt replied.
"That's good to hear." Kat said as she tried avoiding another fight. "Now since all of us are finally here, let's start making the arrangements."
"Arrangement for what," Matt and Mimi asked in unison. Mimi and Matt glared daggers at each other.
"For your wedding of course," Richard replied.
"But dad I thought you and I and mom for a matter-of-fact had an agreement."
"Agreement on what," Mimi asked.
"Well--" Matt started.
"Oh yes that's right the agreement." Nancy said. "Kat you remember the agreement don't you?"
"Yes of course I do." Kat said. "Silly me I was too exited about seeing Mimi and Matt together like this."
"Yes doesn't it, it makes you wonder how our grandchildren would look like." Nancy stated.
"Us, having children, are you completely sure about that?" Matt said.
"What agreement," Mimi asked avoiding Matt's comment.
"Oh that's right your father and I forgot to tell you." Kat started. "Well since you and Matt don't like the idea of getting married on short notice, we've agreed that you and Matt would spend some quality time together at you home."
"Home, quality time," Mimi asked a bit confused.
"Why of course princess, your home, Richard, Nancy, your mother and I bought you to a home." Rick said.
"You mean mansion, honey." Kat said.
"Right a mansion just on the other side of town. You two would be living with each other for the next two to three months, so you would be able to get to know each other." Rick explained.
Mimi looked like she was about to explode. "WHAT, me living with him."
"Hey," Matt said. "You should be lucky you're living with me for the next few months. Any girl would have jumped if they were offered to live with."
"Oh well, I feel sorry for them." Mimi replied. "Daddy we can't live with each other, I can't even stand being in the same room with him." Mimi whined.
"Now princess," Rick started.
"Honey, you to will enjoy each other, trusts me." Kat said.
"Yes, and I will make sure Matt behaves." Nancy said as she looked at her son.
Matt cringed.
"But, we've also agreed that, when those months passed, you two will decide whether can stand each other or not." Richard said.
Mimi stared at the ground for a while, while Matt stared out the window.
"And if we can't stand each other--" Mimi started.
"Then you're free from this betrothal." Kat said.
"When do we leave?" Matt asked.
"6:00 p.m. tonight." Nancy replied.
Mimi nodded and headed upstairs. The parents and Matt watched her leave and soon heard loud noises from upstairs followed by drawers slamming.
"I think she's packing," Kat said while the others nodded.
Kat told the maids to set dinner up and told the chefs what everyone wanted. Everybody sat around the long dining table and began to eat. Everybody stared at Matt as he ate like there was tomorrow.
Matt looked up and noticed the stares. "What, the airplane food was disgusting."
The parents shrugged and continue chatting. Mimi emerged into the kitchen a while later strolling two big suitcases behind her followed by Pierre who was carrying a few bags.
"Don't tell me you're bringing all that." Matt said.
Mimi chose to ignore his comment and headed outside. Mimi came back a few minutes later and sat down next across from Matt. She smiled at Matt and said she was 'sorry' by the way she was acting earlier. She began to eat while everyone looked at her shocked by her sudden change of attitude towards Matt.
She's up to something. Kat thought while Rick thought the same. They knew that look on her face; it was the same look that got her in trouble for making a girl's hair turn bald. Kat shrugged and hoped it was her imagination.
They all finished eating and walked outside. Nancy and Richard were saying their goodbyes with Matt, while Kat pulled Mimi into a corner.
"Now, Mimi you better behave yourself, I don't want to get late night phone calls saying you blew up your fiancé." Kat said with a worried expression.
"Mom that is such a good idea," Mimi said pretending to think.
"Mimi Tachikawa, I'm serious." Kat said.
"Mom, calm down I was just kidding." Mimi laughed while Kat gave her a stern look, Mimi finally relented. "Okay, I'm sorry,"
"Now Mimi, I know you're mad at your father and I of what happened with you and Tai," Kat started.
"Mom, don't start," Mimi said looking at the ground.
"Mimi let me finish, please do me a favor and give this a chance. Matt is a great guy, and I like him." Kat said. She hugged Mimi.
Mimi nodded. Mimi went over to her dad and hugged him.
"I'm going to miss you princess." Rick said.
"Me too daddy," Mimi replied.
Mimi looked over her shoulder and met Matt's eyes for a second but he turned his gaze back to his parents who seemed like they were all in deep conversation.
"Now Matt you take care of yourself," Richard said.
"Did you pack enough clothes?" Nancy asked.
"Yes," Matt replied.
"How about your toothbrush," Nancy asked.
"It's in my bag," Matt replied.
"How about enough underwear, boxers," Nancy asked again.
"Mom," Matt whined.
"What I'm just asking," Nancy said.
"Oh, Nan cut it out Matt's a grown man; you don't need to ask him what he packed." Richard said.
"Thanks for pointing that out dad." Matt said.
"Did you pack enough clothes?" Richard asked.
"Ugh, dad, mom, don't worry I can take care of myself." Matt replied. He hugged both his parents. "Bye, I'll miss you." He said before getting in the limo.
Nancy and Richard watch his son leave. "He'll be okay right, Rich?"
"Yeah, of course," He replied.
Kat and Rick said their good byes and went over to Nancy and Richard.
"Pierre," Kat called.
"Yes ma'am," He said.
"I want you to watch those two and make sure they get along fine." Kat said.
"Yes ma'am," Pierre said before getting into the limo.
Nancy, Kat, Rick, and Richard watched as the limo left, with worried expressions on their face.
