As soon as I left the VR Pod my mother barged into my room.
" The truck to take our items is here "
Shifting my head to the door I saw my mother's smiling face. I couldn't help, but feel warmth inside my chest seeing my parents act like that.
Even though I tried to suppress my emotions a single tear managed to escape from my eye. Quickly wiping it not to startle my mother, I nodded my head.
" I'll be downstairs soon "
Responding I went for quick shower before climbing downstairs. Entering the first floor I saw multiple workers being instructed by my mother what to bring to the truck.
Looking around I noticed my dad sitting on the couch and overlooking the process of everything being slowly moved. I knew he took a liking to this old, but comfy house.
When our gazes t he nodded his head, before shifting his eyes towards the workers. Even though he didn't voice it out I knew he was proud. I was dying to see his reaction when he saw what house I've bought.
Calling so of the employees I led them towards my room and instructing them to bring my Pod. I had more than enough money to buy a better one, but since the prices now are inflated I didn't want to spend extra money.
I felt several questioning glances thrown towards my direction, but I didn't care and kept scrolling through my phone.
' Why can't a 19 year old play gas? Especially if it'll beco the most payed activity '
I snorted while looking at the news. Abruptly speaking, the situation around the world was dire. More and more people are retiring or quitting their jobs to play .
Even though it looked stupid I couldn't help, but shake my head in approval.
' Soon the world will be revolving around '
Murmuring, I threw my phone in the pocket and packed the rest of the things.

We were a few minutes away from our new house. A big smile was all over my face, while my parents were pestering with various questions.
Half an hour ago we drove past the checkpoint where our docunts were checked. Since I've bought property in the area we passed quite quickly, but fortunately or not my parents noticed that we were traveling through houses that looked more like mansions.
Even after spending more than half an hour trying to receive so information about the house, they didn't stop. As I was about to give in, because all the questions were hurting my head we arrived at our new ho.
Climbing out of the truck I left my parents who were staring at the mansion before them. Unlocking the gates I let the trucks drive into Yard, before the workers started unpacking all the stuff.
My face was kind of distorted seeing my parents' reactions. Their faces with tired eyes and sunken cheeks were now smiling from ear to ear.
Since they were staring at the mansion and looked defenseless I couldn't help, but sneak behind them.
" Do you like the house? "
I asked, making both of them jump in shock.
My father sohow managed to control his facial expression even though I saw his eye twitch.
" I still don't know how you, with such childish behavior manage to achieve such fortune "
He stated while hugging my mother who couldn't help but nod her head at his words.
" I took after you "
I smiled, making my mother slightly chuckle and father stumble backwards. With an unexpected sentence I finished our joking session and invited them inside.
With the outside looking like a mansion the interior was no different. Chandeliers, huge rooms, modern technology, everything looked fancy.
Guiding my parents around the house I showed around every single room and corner of our new, expensive ho. It wasn't an exaggeration if I said that the whole ti they were agape.
As we ca back into the living room I noticed that the workers finished unpacking. Giving all of them a generous tip I've bid goodbyes.
As soon as the truck was out of the sight my parents changed drastically. They ran up to half shaking and hugging .
" Do you know how much this costs? "
" I don't know what to do such with so much space, you could've bought a smaller house "
" Who's going to clean all this ? "
Both of them were bugging with various statents burying under the massive text walls. Even within those walls I could discern the pure emotions of Awe... Thankfulness... and Worry...
Hugging both of them I spent so ti answering the questions, consoling them and finally talking about my plans.
My parents were surprised that my goals were way higher than they ever thought, but sharing a short eye contact they just smiled and assured that they'll support no matter what.

I spent the evening with my parents talking about various things ranging from clothes to grandchildren.
Even though so of the thes were embarrassing or even uncomfortable to talk about I've managed to hold on, until my mother started dreaming about being a grandma.
As soon as I heard the word Grandma I knew that the normal talk was over. Quickly rising from my seat I made up an excuse that I have to order food.
As I was walking out of the room I almost stumbled upon hearing my mothers next words.
" I wonder if he likes ... "
" I like won! "
I almost yelled and hid my red cheeks within a hood.
' Even If I hadn't spend particularly long ti conversing with girls it doesn't an I'm not into them '
Grumbling under my nose I ordered a few pizzas to be delivered to our house. After half an hour a doorbell rang and I went to retrieve the food.
Opening the door I noticed a girl similar age to .
Suddenly the atmosphere around turned weird, looking behind myself I saw my mother looking at the girl with a weird stare.
' Shit! '
I thought and quickly took the pizzas. Tipping the girl and I quickly closed the door before a demon could do its deed.
