"Ayro, are you free this afternoon?" Mike asked.
"Yes, I am," I replied in a low voice, "That's why I was thinking it would be boring, and I'm trying to figure out what to do." Lily also looked at me.
"If that's the case, then why don't you come to my house?" Mike asked excitedly. "You said you wanted to, and it would be good. We can also play my new online game."
"Well, yeah, that's a good option," I said, even though this had been my plan all along. I just couldn't admit it.
"Then you're coming to my house, right?" Mike pressed.
"Ah, yes, I'll go to your house after school. But first, I want to ask you a question: will your mother be home?" This question immediately piqued Anna and Lily's interest.
"Ahh, yes, my mother will be home. That might be a problem," Mike said in a low voice. "But don't worry, we'll play games in my room, so no one will disturb us."
"Oh, I don't have any problem with that," I told him.
"Then why did you ask if his mom was home or not?" Lily asked, curious.
"Yes, if you don't have a problem with it, why did you ask?" Mike chimed in.
"Nothing," I explained. "I asked because I live alone and always eat outdoor food, not homemade food. Since his mother is home, she'll make homemade food for him, so I'll also get to enjoy it."
"What? You live alone? What about your mom?" Mike asked in surprise.
"I don't know," I replied truthfully. "I've been living alone since I was four years old, and my mother hasn't visited me once. So, I don't know anything about her."
"What? You've been living alone since you were four years old? How did you manage that?" Lily and Anna asked in astonishment.
"Well, when I was four, I had a maid to do things for me, but now I'm all by myself," I replied calmly.
"That's a big achievement, bro. You've really lived alone all these years," Mike said. Lily and Anna nodded in agreement.
"Actually, I like being alone, but for a few days, I've started to feel bored," I told them.
"Oh, then I can understand why you had no friends before me," Mike said proudly, as he was my first friend.
"Yes, I was feeling bored, that's why I befriended you," I said.
"I'm telling the truth, Ayro, I really like your personality. You don't lie about anything; whatever it is, you speak the truth, and I find it quite cute," Lily said with a smile.
"Oh," I responded, without looking at her.
"Yes, Ayro, your personality is somewhat interesting," Anna nodded.
"Well, forget about being alone from now on, my friend. Since you've made us your friends, we won't let you feel bored. And as for lunch, I'll ask Mom to make special food for you, don't worry. We're going to enjoy today," Mike said with a smile, looking at Lily and Anna.
"Yes, you don't have to be alone since we are now your friends," Anna added with a smile.
"Thank you, all of you," I said to them.
Just as I finished speaking, the bell rang, and our class began. Without further talking, we started to study.
Around three hours later, only two classes remained before the end of the school day. We now had a 15-minute break before the next class. Since I had time and wanted something to drink, and our school provided everything, during these 15-minute breaks, students would leave their classrooms and go to the canteen or the supermarket inside the school for a refreshment. Our class was nearly empty; everyone had gone out. Only four students remained in the class, besides us, making a total of eight students.
Lara came to class but didn't talk to me, and she even went out during this free time, I thought and stood up from my seat.
"Where are you going, Ayro?" Anna asked.
"Nowhere, just for a stroll," I said, and without waiting for a reply, I walked out.
After leaving the class, I went downstairs from the third floor to the ground floor and walked through the hallway to a large canteen. So many students were chatting and eating together. Some students, with nothing to do, just came to observe the attractive girls from their own and senior classes. But this had nothing to do with me. I was there to drink water, so I simply bought a water bottle and returned to class without any trouble. On the way back, I didn't see Lara, so I didn't bother to look for her. What did it have to do with me, anyway?
Back in class, I sat down in my usual spot.
"Ayro, I've already told my mother that you're coming to my house, so she'll make good food," Mike said excitedly.
"Oh, Thanks buddy," I replied.
Just like that, our class ended. It was already 1:10 PM. The bell rang, and students began to leave the classroom.
I hadn't remembered this milfy teacher of mine. Shit, I was getting bored, but I forgot about her, I thought. Just as I was thinking about it, Mike said, "Let's go to my house, Ayro." He stood up from his seat, and I followed his lead.
"Okay, let's go," I said, following him.
"Oh, are Anna and Lily coming with us?" I asked, looking at them.
"No, not really. Anna and I both live in the same direction, but in different places," Lily said, and Anna nodded in response.
"Oh, I see. Good, then let's go together until then," I said, and we started walking together. After about five minutes, Anna and Lily parted ways.
"So, Ayro, what's your favorite game?" Mike asked.
"I haven't really played any games," I replied.
"Oh, I see. That means I'll have to teach you how to play games, won't I?" Mike asked.
"Well, yes," I nodded.
"Good! Don't worry, I'm a master at teaching games," Mike said with a smile.
"Oh, okay," I said. After walking for another five minutes, we arrived in front of a 20-story building. Each floor contained a quite large apartment.
"This is where I live," Mike said, and we entered through the gate where a security guard was sitting.
Inside the building, there was a lift. We took it to reach our destination easily.
"Which floor do you live on, Mike?" I asked.
"Seventh floor," Mike replied, and the lift automatically started moving without any buttons, just by his voice.
Upon reaching the seventh floor, we stepped out of the lift into a long hallway. There was a door in front of us, and we walked towards it. Mike placed his hand on the doorknob, and the door instantly opened.
"Let's go, Ayro," Mike said and went inside. I followed him. As we entered, there was a hall in front of us with a sofa in the center. There was also a dining table close to the kitchen, which was open-plan. Unlike in my house, the kitchen was not separate; it was right in front of the dining table.
Once we were inside the house, Mike told me, "Ayro, sit here. I'm going to call Mother." He then went to his mother's room. I sat on the sofa, sensing that his mother had already made lunch. I sat there and looked around. I didn't find any CCTV cameras or hidden cameras. So I took out my phone and checked it, but still, there wasn't a single camera.
It's quite interesting; there's literally no camera inside this house. I thought only villas needed cameras, I mused, looking at my phone. Just as I checked it, I found that my mom had messaged me today.
Mom: Sorry, Ayro, I couldn't come yesterday because I got caught up in some work. Please forgive your mom. I will try to come as soon as my work is done.
Me: Oh, don't worry, Mother, it doesn't make any difference. You haven't come to me for years, so waiting more days won't make any difference.
I replied and suddenly heard footsteps approaching the door. I turned my face towards the main door and saw it open.
Did Mike's mother go out? I wondered, looking at the main door.
