Chapter 189: Absurd Proclamation
Chapter 189: Absurd Proclamation
"What nuisance was that?" I asked, feeling a little pissed off at whatever was ruining my mother's happiness, and if it actually turned out to be someone, I planned on visiting them and ruining their happiness as well.
"Well, it's not hard to guess Kafi and is something that all girls go through after a certain age because of how our society is prejudiced against women and their independence." My mother gave a weary sigh, like she was tired of how the world worked against women in this world.
"But after we joined university, both me and Olivia constantly got targeted by the other boys in college who constantly pestered us, asking for a date or wanting to be our boyfriends...Some even went as far as to ask our hand in marriage and propose to us in public, which was always a nightmare to deal with."
My mother shook her head, like she didn't want to bring up those torturous memories.
"Wait, the nuisance you were talking about was a bunch of dudes asking you out?...Couldn't you have just said that you weren't interested and moved on? I mean, you don't exactly seem like the type of woman who would give in to that type of nonsense and would do your best to move past it."

I said, not understanding why this was such a life-altering deal when it was something that all women went through in their lives, no matter how annoying it was.
My mother looked excited at the moment and seemed like she was reliving that epic day where she broke every single boy's heart by shouting out that statement and giving them a shock of their lifetime.
"I only said that out of a whim and anger so that I could make the crowd of boys around us shut up for a second, so that we could enjoy our lunch together in peace...But who would've thought that very absurd statement of mine that I thought of in the moment would start to spread around in the university to the extent that by the end of the of the week everyone on campus knew what happened in the cafeteria that day and thought that me and Olivia were actually dating..."
My mother shook her head like she had no idea how it spread so fast when she basically broadcasted her dating status to all the hundreds of people in the cafeteria who all knew about her since she was so popular.
"Me and Olivia thought that it was going to be a pain to dispel all those rumours and make everyone understand that I was simply joking around when I said that...But the thing was, the rumour didn't turn out to be a hindrance like we thought and actually helped us in so many ways and actually changed our lives for the better."
My mother gave a bright smile like she saw sunshine on a rainy day, thinking of how all those things she thought would be a hindrance coincidentally turned her life around for the better.
"In fact, without that rumour spreading, me and your mother would never have decided to spend our lives together as a couple of very close friends who could even be considered sisters, and it more importantly was the biggest factor that led us to meeting you as a baby in your cute little basket that fated day..." My mother said as she looked at me with a loving gaze, like she could still see the baby she picked up years ago, and stroked my cheek in a tender manner, which made me blush and feel all warm and cosy inside.
"Cough~ Cough...So you met baby me because of that rumour...How did that come out to be?"
I coughed to hide my embarrassment and asked with an avid look on my face to see how this story goes...
