A Magic to Melt A Heart (TinCan)

Chapter 12 - Breakfast

(unedited)

"CANTALOUPE! CANTALOUPE! WAKE UP" Ley shouted as she shook Can's body.

"Hmm...Ley, it's so early in the morning, what do you want?" Can, who was still in his bed, grumpily asked as he tried to go back to sleep.

"TIN IS HERE!! HE HAS BEEN WAITING FOR YOU FOR ABOUT AN HOUR ALREADY!!!" Ley said as she pulled the blanket away from Can.

"Hmmm......TIN!? HOW DID YOU KNOW ABOUT TIN!?" The little beast summoner suddenly realized about his meeting with Tin. He quickly got out of bed and looked at the alarm clock on the table next to his bed. It was 10:15 A.M.

Can's eyes widened as he said "SHIA!"

"Mom saw a fancy car in front of our house while cleaning outside. She then saw the heir of E.A. standing next to his car waiting. Mom talked to him then invited him in. She then asked me to wake you up. You are in big trouble," Ley explained.

Can immediately fixed his bed. 

The little beast summoner forgot that he was meeting Tin today, which is a Saturday, in the morning at 9 a.m. in front of his house. Yesterday, after his last class, Can joined Techno and Kengkla to Techno's specialized training ground to practice for the upcoming beast summoner guild ranking competition on Monday. They finished practicing late at night, so when Can got home by himself, he went straight to bed and slept. The meet-up that he was going to have the next day with Tin was forgotten due to extreme exhaustion from training. Now, he is panicking because he does not know what the ice prince will do to him for being late. 

Ley grabbed one of his older brother's arms as she asked,"Cantaloupe tell me the truth! were you lying to me last time about your sugar daddy? It was Tin right!? I knew it! You couldn't tell me because your sugar daddy is the heir of E.A! I understand it very well! I assure-"

Can covered his sister's mouth with his hand to stop her from blabbering nonsense due to her imaginative mind.

"LEY! I already told you that I don't have a sugar daddy. Stop it already!!" Can demanded as he continued to panic.

"Why is Tin friends with YOU then? I mean isn't he the so-called aloof ice prince in your university? How can a powerful, influential, charismatic, and handsome young man be your friend?"

"We're not friends!" Can denied as he immediately went downstairs to explain to Tin his situation.

"WAIT CANTALOUPE!! I still have questions," Ley said, but she could only sigh in disappointment after Can already dashed downstairs. She knew something was up between the two. There must be! Her fujoshi senses are always on point. She will figure out sooner or later about the relationship between the two. 

As soon as Can came downstairs, he heard laughter in the dining room. When he entered the dining room, he saw his mom laughing while talking to Tin as they sat down at the table. Tin, who was wearing a fancy blue denim jacket with a gray shirt and black pants, was smiling and talking in such a friendly way to his mother. What is happening? What are they talking about? Why is my mom laughing? Why is Tin smiling? 

Her mom then spotted his son who was contemplating and looking awkwardly at her and the well-known visitor.

"There he is! CANTALOUPE!!! C'mere you irresponsible kid!" her mom said as she put an ominous fake smile and performed the come-here gesture to him. 

Tin took note of Can's real name the moment Mrs. Rathavit called her son.

Can looked at her mom in a frightened manner. He knew that he was in trouble. He then gazed at Tin who had a smirk on his face as if expecting some good show to happen.
