Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 102 - Interrogation

"...!"

Rudy's face immediately turned pale the moment he saw Rebecca standing in front of the window of his room.

However, the cold glare in her eyes was what made Rudy shiver in fear.

'I am dead.' That's the only thing Rudy could think of at that time.

The window was open so the eye contact between Rudy and Rebecca was direct without any interruptions.

'Calm down. You can still handle this situation,' Angelia reassured Rudy.

'No, no. I am dead. Look at that glare in her eyes. It looks like she is about to shoot a laser beam and penetrate my soul.'

"What are you doing here, mom?" Rudy asked with an awkward smile on his face.

"I think I should be the one asking that to you." Rebeca frowned her face and asked, "What are 'you' doing there outside the window?"

"I was…"

"First, come inside." Rebecca grabbed Rudy from the collar and pulled him into the room. Then, she pointed her finger at the bed and said, "Sit."

Rudy sat on the bed just like an obedient and well-trained dog.

Rebeca raised her brow and asked again: "So?"

"I… didn't have the key. I forgot it was in my bag, and as you know, I was out for the entire day. Then, I remember I had left the window of my room open, so I tried to enter the house. But fortunately, you arrived at the right time," Rudy responded awkwardly.

"Fortunately?" Rebecca raised two fingers of her both hands and quoted 'fortunately'.

"Or do you mean, unfortunately?"

"..."

"Where were you for the entire day anyway?" Rebecca asked impatiently. "You went on a date with Alice, I get that. You were late to come back because... Well, you are a teenager and… you know what I am talking about. But spending an entire night with a girl…?"

Rebecca shook her head and continued, "That's a no-no. I wanted to call you, but I didn't want to be an 'annoying' mom in your eyes than I already am."

"That's not true! Never in my life have I ever thought of you as annoying. You worry about me, and that's what all the moms do. There is nothing wrong with that," Rudy retorted. "And I wasn't with Alice."

"You weren't?" Rebecca asked with a surprised look on her face. But her face was hiding a happy smile behind her expression.

"Yes, our date was postponed to today. So I will be leaving again in a few hours," Rudy informed in a calm voice.

"Wait, so where were you all this time?" Rebecca asked with a curious yet anxious look on her face.

"I was… uhhh… at Eric's place?"

"Oh?" Rebecca squinted her eyes with an amused look on her face and said, "How strange. Because Eric called me last night and asked me to send you to his house."

'So that's why he called me! He must have called mom because I didn't answer his call.'

'I take it back, Rudy. You are dead,' Angelica said to Rudy after realizing he had run out of all the options.

"Rudy, are you hiding something from me?" Rebecca asked with a concerned look on her face.

"Well…" Rudy averted his gaze to avoid eye contact with Rebecca and thought, 'I have been telling lies over and over to cover up a single lie. I can't keep this up. I will just have to tell mom everything.'

'I know this is not the right time because Lucy and Joe haven't moved here yet. But I have no other choice. I just hope that she doesn't freak out or get a stroke or something.'

Rudy took a deep breath and gathered the courage to prepare himself to tell the truth to Rebecca. He was ready to accept his fate.

"Mom…" Rudy gulped down and opened his mouth to say, "Actually, the truth is that I—"

"You know, what. Don't tell me," Rebecca interrupted Rudy and said, "I can clearly see you are not ready to tell me. So whatever it is, tell me when you are confident enough."

"..."

"I am ready to tell you right now."

"No, it's alright." Rebecca turned around and left the room after saying, "You must be tired, right? Get some sleep. I will come to wake you up when breakfast is ready."

"..."

After going downstairs, Rebecca let out a relieved sigh and muttered, "I almost made him confess about these powers."

"That would have created a paradox, right? Since the diary said I should wait for him to tell me everything." Rebecca smiled and uttered, "But I am happy knowing that he was ready to tell me everything."

Rebecca hugged herself and squirmed: "Argh! This wait is killing me! I have waited for him for years. Just a few days would make no difference!"

Meanwhile, Angelica came out of Rudy's body and said, "Is this what they call plot armor?"

"I don't think so…" Rudy shrugged and said, "This is real life, and everything happens fairly."

Angelica hugged Rudy and said, "Are you tired?"

"I am, but I am not going to sleep. I also have to know the reason why my teleportation wasn't working earlier." Rudy got up from his bed and used telekinesis to confirm his powers were working properly.

"So… can you fuck me?"

"It's dangerous to do it here since the lock is broken. So let's go to the bathroom."

As soon as Rudy uttered that, he teleported to the bathroom. But, he was alone as she wasn't touching Angelica.

"..."

Rudy immediately teleported back to his room and took Angelica with him.

"Now it's working just fine…" Rudy muttered in confusion. "Why do I think that the reason I wasn't able to teleport before was just so the world can fuck me up?"

Rudy left his room and went to the bathroom in a normal way because he didn't want Rebecca to get suspicious again.

Then, they fucked until Rebecca yelled at him for spending too much time in the bathroom.
