-Chapter17-
-Mitch Meets Miko's Family-
After a while of talking and Miko explaining to Mitch where she lived, they had finally gotten to her home
Once Miko opened the costume, she chucked the cardboard onto the ground along with the plastic, and ironically now, she noticed she was shaking just as Mitch was doing earlier, yeah she was nervous
"Alright, and you remember the story I told you right?" Mitch asked
"Yes." she nodded once
"Good now, come on." Mitch said
"One question though," Miko grabbed his sleeve and stopped him, "How many times have you thought up lies like this before?"
"Oh, just a couple of times," Mitch replied "You work in secret as a tech person, you get good at making lies up."
"Alright." Miko said grabbing the costume and leaving
The two got out and went to the door,
Miko continued shaking, and Mitch quickly noticed "Nervous?" he asked
"Just a little," she says "I'll be better when or if we get this worked out."
Mitch knocked on the door,
The sound of Mayumi's voice was heard coming closer,
"THERE YOU ARE!" Miko's mom shouted "YOU HAVE A LOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO MISSY."
"Ah, Mrs. Kubota." Mitch began putting on a kind sounding voice "I'm glad to see you, because there is something we need to explain, involving the incident at the grocery store, mind if I come in?" he smiled
Mayumi was shocked Mitch's calm greeting and demeanor. "Oh...I guess so."
"Thank you," Mitch smiled trotting into the house alongside Miko
...
The lie that Mitch and Miko had told was that the glitch was actually a dog wearing a hedgehog costume, that someone had let loose in the store (even had the costume to make it seem real)
Miko was a bit hesitant about lying, but Mitch on the other hand, was working it, fake smiles, and everything, it also helped the fact Nica and Lexi had realized what they we're doing and joined in on the scheme
"And don't worry, once we found the individual responsible for this whole ordeal, he did get fined for disrupting the peace." Mitch explained
"And we even took his costume." Miko held up the hedgehog costume
Miko's mom and dad sat on the couch still in disbelief
Miko looked at them with the most confidence she could muster, "please believe me, please believe me..." she begged in her mind
"Well...I must say that's certainly shocking." Her father, Hugh finally said
"Yeah, I'm glad you found that guy, that prank that really terrified me." Mayumi said "I mean that looked real did it not?" she asked Nica and Lexi
