HIS MOTHER

After setting her wine glass down on the table, the woman strides to you and pulls Runa out from your jacket. Runa starts to meow loudly, her excitement overflowing at the sight of her owner. She climbs onto the woman's shoulders and starts licking her face.

"Shh," the woman whispers against Runa's head, trying to calm her down. "Don't worry, Mama's back." She then waves for you and Iwaizumi to come inside, but you find yourself frozen, watching her bounce and sway around the living room while Runa lays in her arms. "Don't mind me!" her smile makes your heart jump. "Please, take a seat! Just saying hi to my baby. It's been ages."

She continues to twirl around and hum to Runa who was still climbing all over her. You follow Iwaizumi to the dining table, and you find your hands shaking from the unexpected guest. "That's your mother?"

"Yeah," Iwaizumi whispers as he sits beside you. The look you had on your face made him bite back a laugh. "Are you surprised?"

"Very," you watch his mother open the balcony door, letting fresh air rush inside. She was incredibly beautiful―it was obvious who was responsible for Iwaizumi's olive eyes and dark hair. She had pink cheeks, a chiseled jaw, and hair that flowed down to her mid back.

Once Runa starts to calm down, Iwaizumi's mother returns to the dining table. "Hajime!" she bends down to kiss his cheek before grinning warmly at you. "I don't think we've met yet."

"No, we haven't," your hands are still shaking, though her voice made you feel at home.

She looks at Iwaizumi, waiting for an introduction. "Mom, this is y/n," Iwaizumi gestures to you, "Y/n, this is my mother."

"Mother, yes," She says as she takes the seat across from you. She places Runa on the table, letting her snuggle up against her chest. "Hajime has never brought a girl home before," her eyes run over you, sending a shiver down your spine. "A pretty girl."

Iwaizumi clears his throat. "She's, um," he looks at you for help, but no words leave your mouth. "She's my girlfriend."

Her jaw drops. "Oh, girlfriend! How exciting!" She leans on the table, her eyes still studying you. "For how long?"

"Less than twenty four hours," the words slip from your mouth. You are hit with instant regret, but Iwaizumi's mother keeps the smile on her face.

"Oh, young love," her fingers wrap around her wine glass and she brings it up to her lips, taking a small sip. She winks to her son and a small chuckle leaves him. The room feels odd as you try to get the joke. "Darling, you're as red as a tomato."

Your eyes widen. "Who, me?"

"Yes, you!" she laughs before running a hand down Runa's back. "Hajime, go be a gentleman and get your girlfriend a glass of water, please." she points to her neck, gesturing to Iwaizumi. "And it looks like your eczema is acting up again."

"I know," Iwaizumi says shyly.

He nudges your side before disappearing into the kitchen, leaving you under his mother's eye. You play with your fingers under the table, your mouth going completely dry. Now that she was actually here, your confidence left the room. Forming a real conversation with her was going to be harder than you thought.
