__Phone call with Mom__
I swallowed my saliva hardly, knowing that I had fallen into a trap, whether Mason deliberately set it up or not, but I was definitely trapped to say yes.
"Yes, Mom. I will return home with my boyfriend's car," I replied weakly.
"Oh, perfect! Then I don't need to worry anymore," Mom said on the phone. "Well, I will be waiting at home. It's quite late already. You two should return home soon. Uh… young man, your name is Mason Hall, right?"
"Yes, my name is Mason Hall. I am Emmy's boyfriend," Mason claimed. I felt it was wrong because we weren't dating, at least not yet. But he had to claim to be my boyfriend to save my careless ass.
"Oh, aren't you the same man who always brings a red rose for Emmy?" Mom asked again.
