Trischia's pov
When I got back I took a nice long shower and I threw the now very dirty and ripped clothes in a trashbin. Sometimes I really did have to give myself an applause, I had never imagined that I would be able to fool Seijuro. But I did, or at least it seemed like I had him fooled for the moment. But now at least I knew I had to be even more discreet. Maybe I would even have to get a friend at school. So that I could use it as an excuse for going out.
I sighed happily as I wrapped a towel around myself, but as I looked in the mirror I frowned slightly. All of these scratches and bruises might become a problem. I stretched my arms so that they wouldn't get sore tomorrow. As I heard a sound behind me I nearly jumped into the seeling. I whirled around and spotted Seijuro standing in the middle of the room. He crossed his arms over his chest and didn't look particularly happy.
"Wh-what are you doing in here?! I'm ceritan I locked the door! Can't you see I'm getting dressed?!" I nearly shouted at him in a paniced voice, not expecting to see him in here right now. He took a step back and stepped over something. I could feel the blood leave my face.
"What's this?" He demanded to know motioning with his head towards what was left of the bundle of ripped clothing. The clothes I had been wearing as I went out.
"I..." I didn't k ow what to say, and just stood there glaring at them.
"Look at me" he demanded. This was not the usual gentle Seijuro. I gritted my teeth and lifted my gaze to look him in the eye. He looked angry, no rather furious.
"I... I didn't do anything" I tried to defend myself, his glare intensified.
"Then why is your clothes ruined and why do you look like a total mess?" He said with a harsh voice. He had figured out I had lied to him, but he didn't necessarily know what the truth was either. I didn't answer.
"What have you been doing while you were out?" He asked and was showing no mercy. I staggered slightly.
"I... Was jogging" I mentally punched myself, he already knew that was a lie! Why was I saying such dumb things?!
"And you ended up looking like that?!" He snarled obviously struggling to contain his anger. I lifted my hands motioning for him to calm down.
"okay okay!" I said and he took a deep breath.
"I... I went for a jog. And then suddenly there were these two guys that tried to take me away somewhere, so I had to...." As I tried to talk myself out of this miserable situation Seijuro came towards me walking with determined steps. I started backing away as I spoke. As I felt the counter of the sink behind me I cursed mentally. He stopped right in front of me and slammed his hands onto the counter determinedly. That way he cut me off.
"Stop lying!" He yelled at me. I shrinked slightly at his loud voice. I had never been frightened by him before, but right now I was a little scared. My heart was pounding in my chest.
"Do you really think you can fool me?!" He growled, his voice sent shivers down my spine. I forced myself to look at him. If I could just continue saying I was telling the truth he would eventually belive me... Right? He just couldn't know about this, he would probably get furious and he would never trust me again.
"B-But it's..." I started but waas cut off again. His glare intensified.
"I told you to stop lying!" he yelled. I shrinked again. I wanted him to stop yelling at me. I bit my lip looking down, he couldn't find out. Even if he didn't believe me, it didn't mean I had to tell him what I had done. As I didn't say anything more he sighed and turned away.
