"Say what now?" Ash asked with a confused yet surprised expression. Pikachu face palmed because Ash failed to notice an obvious interest from her friend Serena.
"Ash" Delia said firmly, "Serena likes you"
"How?" Ash asked still oblivious to the main topic.
"First of all, Serena cares enough for you to ask about your flight" Delia started then Ash spoke up.
"Mom, of course she cares about me in fact she cares about everybody not just me; that's her personality," Ash said defensively.
"We'll explain this, why does she appear nervous every time she tries to ask you something?" Delia said smiling slyly.
"Uhh-I," Ash trailed off obviously defeated.
"Oh!" "Why did she ask you when are you going to come back for her?" Delia asked continuing pressure on her son.
"Mom!", "Stop!" Ash shouted covering is ears.
"Ash, can't you notice I'm just trying to help you?" Delia countered making Ash flinch. "We already know you like her, plus all of your life so far is just full Pokemon, food, and adventures." "I bet you need some little romance to change things up a bit." Delia said smiling.
"Mom, I thought I you promised not to tease me," Ash said seriously remembering what her mother said earlier. Suddenly the car came to a complete halt. They have arrived at their house.
"Ash, oh please I was not teasing you, I was just recommending things for you" Delia answered in defense.
"We'll let's just get out of here" Ash said as he exited the car with Pikachu following him. Ash ran to the front door. "Home, sweet home, It's good to be back." Ash thought to himself as he turned the knob on the front to be greeted by Mr. Mime.
"It's good to see you again Mr. Mime" Ash said giving Mr. Mime a high-five.
Ash suddenly picked up a strong scent from his nostrils. "I smell food!" Ash said excitedly while rushing to the dining room. Pikachu sweat dropped while touching the back of it's head.
"Looks like someone is a little hungry today" said a familiar voice.
"Professor Oak!" Ash shouted in surprise. "What brings you here?" Ash asked with curiosity.
"Oh, you're mom invited me to lunch today to celebrate you're return" Professor Oak replied. Suddenly somebody spoke up on the front door interrupting the scene.
"Speaking of your return how about you help me carry your damn heavy luggage" Delia complained as she entered the house with Ash's stuff.
"Oops, sorry about that mom" Ash chuckled nervously while Professor Oak, Mr. Mime and Pikachu sweat dropped. Ash rushed to aid his mom. Ash grabbed his luggage from his mom and placed it on his room upstairs. After Ash went down; his stomach grumbled loudly.
"Mom, can we eat now?" Ash asked impatiently, "I'm starving."
"Go right ahead, Professor Can you come here for a minute?" Delia commanded. Professor Oak stood up and went to Delia.
"What it is Delia?" Professor Oak asked curiously.
"I just need you to distract Ash for me," Delia said whispering looking at Ash making sure he didn't listen, but there is no need to because he was busy wolfing down food hungrily.
"May I ask why?" Oak asked.
"I am going to make an important call from his phone" Delia replied.
"Why do you need his phone?" Professor Oak questioned.
"Because I am going to talk to one of his friends" "So will you do it?" Delia asked.
