Present Day
“Don't say that I didn't try!” Umeko screamed. “One night, just one night, and look what this little tramp did!” She was waving her laundry bag at her husband, who just arrived home from the hospital after a long shift.
Smith thought they had her fooled, because Umeko didn't utter a word about her disgruntlement at them the whole breakfast. It was only until her husband came home when she had someone to complain to that she start throwing a hissy fit.
Arms crossed, Misa laughed her head off from the couch from where she was channel surfing on the television. She was acting particularly juvenile in this home, Smith noted.
“She did this intentionally!” Umeko complained. “You’re her father. Tell me now how you’re gonna deal with this?”
“Deal with what?” The doctor was dumbfounded at the dramatic sequences being stage in his own home.
Umeko took a pair of chopsticks from inside one of the drawers of the kitchen cabinet and pulled out a pair of dirty underwear from inside the laundry bag, “Smell this! Smell this!”
It didn't take the doctor long to realize what was the pale white, gooey gunk on a panty that obviously did not belong to his wife. The stinking smell was too distinctive for the doctor's nose.
“And she has the nerves to throw this disgusting underwear on top of my washings! Can you believe that?! I’m going to burn all of them. And I might as well burn this laundry basket, too,” Umeko dropped the panty into garbage can and stuff the laundry bag in after it. “What a tramp!”
Smith was in the bathroom when Umeko started. He hurried downstairs into the living room to save the situation. He knew as soon as he woke up this morning that the universe wouldn't let him off so easily. “I am sorry. It's entirely my fault. I was” Smith had to come up with a more harmless story, even if it might be somewhat far-fetched. “I was jerking off with her panty. I'm really sorry.” From the moment Misa climbed into his bed, of course, he knew nothing is ever too far-fetched.
“You!” Umeko probably didn't think there would be other perfectly logical reason why there was a soiled panty in her laundry basket with her clothes in it. Misa Hayami was trying to mess with her, she was convinced. But then now the white man came out to take the blame for everything himself. What else could she say?
On hearing Smith's clever little lie that shut Umeko up, Misa laughed even harder.
“Well, this is embarrassing,” Smith scratched his head and said, “this is really embarrassing.” He couldn't believe that he was lying about being embarrassed for jerking off to avoid being suspected of having slept with a man's teenage daughter under his own roof. His moral had descended to a new low but he was too busy to care about it anymore.
“Here. Wash your hands.” That was the first thing the doctor managed to ask Smith as he handed him a bottle of anti-bacterial hand soap.
