Video Game Tycoon in Tokyo-Chapter 888: This is not what I imagined catching someone in the act would be like!
Chapter 888 - This is not what I imagined catching someone in the act would be like!
"L-Love... Wife..."
The man was stunned, staring blankly at the several women who had barged into the room.
"Tell me, where are those two women?"
"We're going to beat those two women up!"
"Women? What women?"
At first, the man was flustered.
He had definitely lied, but it was just to play a game.
However, when they started asking about the two women, he was completely caught off guard.
"Those two women, Aeris and Tifa! Get out here!"
"Uh..."
"Hey, sis, and you all, I suddenly think this might be a misunderstanding..."
"Don't say anything, brother! We're catching you in the act!"
The whole room wasn't very large—just a bedroom/living room combination and a bathroom.
The wife's two friends immediately rushed to the wardrobe and bathroom, respectively.
"Here?!... Huh? Not here?"
"Here... or not here?"
The two of them searched for a long time but didn't find any so-called women.
On the TV screen, Aeris was seen leading a somewhat dazed Cloud out of the church.
"Aeris... Tifa... huh?"
At this moment, the man seemed to finally understand.
His wife must have heard him call out the names Aeris or Tifa, probably in his sleep or while dreaming.
After all, he had been obsessed with this game for so long, and when it was finally released, he couldn't resist.
Given how much he thought about the game, it wasn't surprising that he would mention the characters' names in his sleep.
But he never expected his wife to install listening devices in his car.
"Wife... this is a misunderstanding. Really, it's a misunderstanding."
"Yes, yes, sister's friend, this really might be a misunderstanding."
At this moment, the football player also came out to explain.
Meanwhile, his eyes were glued to the TV screen.
He had already reached the church scene in the game, and he saw Aeris—he realized he was playing a bit too slowly.
But on the other hand, it was surprising that someone liked the Final Fantasy games; it seemed that this guy, the husband of his sister's friend, was a decent person.
"Tifa, and Aeris, they're characters from a game. I just wanted to play the game and see those two characters."
The wife's two friends: ???
A game?
A game?!
The wife, who had already been shedding painful tears from her anger and sadness, froze for a moment.
When she saw her husband looking confused and scared, she had assumed he had cheated.
But when she heard her husband's explanation, she was taken aback, and her tears stopped flowing.
"Yes, yes, it's a game. The two female characters in this game are Tifa and Aeris," the football player now also began to support the man.
Because he felt this man could be a kindred spirit, someone who shared his interests.
Such a person was definitely worth supporting.
When he saw the game's footage, he understood everything.
What a real-life reality this was.
In life and work, one has to compromise, and every day is filled with hard work.
As a football player, he had to endure intense training every day just to stand out in the rough world of football.
And when he got some downtime, video games were the only thing that could relieve his stress.
At least he could play games whenever he wanted because he didn't have a girlfriend, wasn't married, and didn't have the pressure of a relationship.
But this man was different.
He had so much pressure in life.
Suddenly, the football player didn't feel like looking for a girlfriend anymore. Women just weren't as interesting as games.
With women, you had to coax them, take care of their feelings, but with video games, you just did what you wanted.
"Wife, do you remember the story I told you when we first met?"
"Back then, I played Final Fantasy 7 and saw the perfect women, Tifa and Aeris, and that's when I wanted to meet someone like them in real life, someone perfect to be my girlfriend. And you, you are the woman I've always dreamed of, the one I wanted to marry."
At this moment, the wife had completely stopped crying, and her eyes began to show a hint of emotion.
It seemed like she really was recalling the early days of their relationship.
Back then, her husband did say he had played some games.
But at that time, she didn't understand; she was only focused on love.
They had both worked hard to be together.
"Though after we got married, there were pressures that made our feelings fade a bit, I still love you in my heart, and you are my real-life Tifa and Aeris."
Wow, this guy's amazing! He's even got me feeling a little moved with just a few words!
As a fellow man, the football player understood this guy.
What he said was definitely heartfelt, but it was mostly clever manipulation.
But women loved hearing things like that.
"Wuwu, husband, I didn't expect this result. I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you!"
The wife, overcome with emotion, rushed into her husband's arms, looking sorrowful and fragile.
At that moment, the man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, he had reacted quickly enough.
If he had been even a little slower, he felt he might have been in serious trouble.
He had seen his wife's two friends holding baseball bats, and if things had gotten physical, he wasn't sure he would've come out unscathed.
Plus, there was a very muscular guy standing by.
But that muscular guy had helped him earlier when he was playing the game, so it seemed they shared the same hobby. He hadn't expected to meet someone like that here, especially someone his age.
Looks like they could be good friends in the future.
As for the wife's two friends, now they could only stand there, dumbfounded.
What... what just happened?
They had come with a bit of a gossiping attitude, planning to catch their friend's husband in the act.
Perhaps the burning curiosity of gossip had made them want to see how things would unfold.
But they never expected this.
Never expected this.
How did catching someone in the act turn into being fed a bunch of dog food?
This wasn't what they had imagined catching someone cheating would be like!
