After a while, I followed him behind. Calling him to wait up on me. Then, just as I entered, Vea reminded me that she needed me to fix her relationship with her husband. I just told her to give me a few days because I was dealing with a lot at the same time. I just started talking to my wife. But still sleeping on the couch. And now that cat was telling me I was not good when it comes to relationship things. Even when I have told him something that will save him from sleeping outside the bedroom.I saw Maria coming back from the kitchen. Now we will have an extra person inside my house. Joseph didn’t like the idea at all. None of us liked it. But again, we weren’t doing it because of Suzen. But because the baby needed us.Then something that I haven’t been thinking about hit me. What if she is lying to us about being pregnant and her been thrown out of the house? What if this all thing is a ruse? Why would she lie to me, though? I don’t care what she does with her life. Unless she had
“Roland, can we talk?” I asked as I stood at the door.He looked at me from his desk. He was reading something. A book. I never even bothered to ask him what he liked and what he wanted to do in his free time. What his favorite food was.I have been also ungrateful toward the old man. He knew everything about me. Treating me like his son and making sure I’m well kept like my parents would have. He knows all my allergies and how to better cook my food. And here I was with nothing about the man. About his family, if he had any.I don’t want to hear it from someone that he has one, and they were elsewhere when he was here saving me.He gestured for me to take a sit.“I know I have been a terrible child towards you. I should have been more considerate of what I did. I put not only myself and the two men in danger. But I did put you and Maria in danger as well. I made you worry about me. I’m sorry,” I spoke.He cleared his throat, “you made not only me worried, Justine. I was terrified her
“This little thing says she is Maria’s sister. Should I allow it in or I should throw it?” Carl asked as he walked back in.“I’m right behind you,” Suzen spoke.“Carl, it’s fine. She is my sister,” Maria spoke as she walked to her. Carl walked back and sat next to his wife. I wonder how she was processing all this up. I mean, she was seeing a talking cat. And not your usual cat. The bastard was overly huge.Knowing magic exists is something else. But seeing a talking cat is way beyond that. That is crazier, actually. But she might as well get used to it since she will be leaving with us now. I just hope she has nothing cooking up. She wasn’t lying about anything. Or I will do something that I can’t even imagine.“Everyone meet my sister Suzen. She will be leaving with us for a while. Suzen, this is Carl and his girlfriend, Crox. And of course you know Joseph and also have a butler, Roland. You will see him later. And the one you found at the gate or saw him outside is Nathan,” she spo
I told Maria what I just heard coming out of Joseph’s room. And as I was explaining to her my theories, she just sat on the chair opposite me. Her face was expressionless.“But you can’t think he would do that, do you? I mean, we are talking about Joseph and my sister. They don’t like each other in the slightest. You saw what was happening during dinner last night,” she pointed out.“I know it’s crazy, but what can we do about it? Do you think we should confront them about it? Because I can’t stop thinking about it. And I couldn’t even sleep,” I told her.She was silent for a while, then spoke, “I think we need to give them time to come out on their own. Surely Joseph can’t hide this from you for longer periods. He will get back to us very soon,” she spoke as she rubbed a hand on my arm. “I know this has had you startled. But I need you to relax and think about something else. We don’t have to give them an impression we know something. I know he is you friend and the news that he lied
I stood about five feet from the naked Void. She just looked at me. Questionable and mad. What the hell did I just walk into? Was she even married? Or she was receiving some guests because she was the goddess of sex? Can my life get any more crazy if not getting involved with the dreadfour?I didn’t even know what to say to her or what to do? So, I just turned to face my back on her. This was crazy. And if Maria were to hear of it, she was going to be even more mad and allow me to sleep on the couch for more days than she planned to.“Void what the hell? Why are you walking naked? I know this is your place, but is walking like that really necessary?” I asked her. Keeping my voice calm. I was in her place and she would beat the leaving hell out of me if I’m to say anything stupid.I heard and felt her presence behind me. She was closer to me. What was she doing? First the tab and now this. This woman is crazy.“I’m the goddess of sex and this is something you are worried about? I’m goi
“What do you mean it’s my fault you two are not together? What did I do?” I asked him as I sat on him. “I didn’t even know you bastards existed until recently. How does this involve me,” I added as an afterthought.He was silent for a while, then spoke. ‘It’s your fault that crazy cousin of yours burned the tree to the opposite house. That made me get out of my habitant. And then we fought because I refused to leave with her in the house,’ he said.I thought about what he just said. Everything involved me here. Revoc burned the tree to the opposite house because he wanted me to remain there. Because he didn’t want me to leave foe or he was delaying me.“I know this sounds like my fault. But what Revoc does with his life doesn’t involve me in any way. But the tree is perfectly fine here. Why did you leave?” I asked him, looking over at the tree.‘After he burned that one, it sort of threw me out. Rejected me so to say. I can’t go back there. Maybe later, but not now. And I can’t be lea
I pushed the door without even knocking. He was sitting on the bed. Then he looked at me. He looked down. Probably thinking about what he had just done. What the hell even made him do what he did? He hurts Suzen with all his life. But he went on and slept with her. And he kept that from me. I wonder when he did that even.“Hey, man. Can we talk?” I asked him as I stopped three feet from him.“Sure,” he said, and I took a sit on the chair. “What do you have to talk to me about?” He smiled my way. But I could tell he was forcing it.I smiled as I shook my head, “Joseph, you are the one that has something to tell me. Are you sure you are not hiding anything from me?” I asked him.He was silent for a while, then shook his head. So I went on, realizing I didn’t have time for us to start going back and forth about the same things. I needed him to tell me what happened and first. Because I was expecting someone to show up. “I know what you and Suzen did. And the fact that you didn’t tell me
“I just don’t know what I need to do, Hope,” I told the man as I lay on a couch that was the design of those in therapy offices. While Hope sat on a chair, making this even better for my cause.After my talk with both Joseph and Carl. Then, talk with Carnage, I realized I needed help. I needed some time away from all of them and just to talk to someone that does care about my feelings. Someone that will help me understand what I’m going through. Well, not fully, but it was kind of his job. Give hope to people. Tell them to keep holding on to dear life.“Well, tell me what you feel about her? Why you allowed her in your life without fully forgiving her,” he asked as he wrote in his book. He was fully a therapist. Crazy old man.“Sometimes I think I only did it because all of you kept telling me to give her a chance in your own ways. Because I wanted to give her a chance. Because we never give up on family. I think that is one of the reasons I did let her in my life again,” I explained
