Emma... (Au Emma As A Mom)

Chapter 3

It's been months since Norman got shipped out, weeks since Ray's birthday, weeks since Ray and older kid escaped, Emma never joined then, and a week since Emma and the younger children got sent to their "new" "home."

It's been a week since the we've been sent to our new "home." As they call it, "with new brothers and sisters." As mom had told us.

I wish I could of saved them all, but Ray was right the younger kids won't make it far and I rather them be here safe for 2 than out where demon's run free and where we have to hide just to survive.

I'm starting to think staying behind is the better answer. I hope everyone is okay. I think as I keep my eyes on the many new siblings I have say each if there names in my head over and over again, before getting to tried to keep my eyes open another second.

"Emma! It's morning!" I hear from the many younger kids "Morning!"  I answer with a smile. The kids grab my arm and pulls me out of bed and to the hallway.

I look around searching for Phil... He's no where to be seen in the crowd of young children, I rush to the dinning room hoping he's there. I stare at every kids looking in every spot I can think realising "He's not here..." I think out loud

"Who's not here?" I heard a voice say

I turn to see no one other than... Our 'new' mom, Yukko. She sees right though me but I can't pretending like she doesn't know that I already know I might as well try to keep the fact Phil knows a secret.

"Oh, I was looking for Phil, I was hoping to calm his nerves as he was very scared coming to a new house and not seeing mother every day." I smile in response, "Oh, I see. He's not here right now." She respond while walking into the kitchen as I follow.

"Then where is he?" Is questions, "Isabella wanted to speak with him. I'm not sure why but I hope you know she will be your grandmother soon and you must follow what she says." She was lucky no other kids were near, as she talked about what would happen after I get 'adopted.'

I already knew I have to become a mother but that's if I do well enough in the training. I hope that I can do it all in 3 years so I can leave when Ray and the others come to save Phil and the others. I really hope so.

"Emma!" Someone shouted. I break out of thought to see Yukko, "Sorry" I apologize. "We should get back your siblings are ready to eat." She walks in font of me and I follow her back to the dinning room.

"Emma!" I hear someone yell.

I look to find Phil. I'm glad he's okay. "Hello Phil." I smile and he smiles back.

I sit next to him as we say our prayers thanking for the food. Everyone digs in and I just stare at my food. I'm next to be 'adopted' I don't want to leave Phil by him self but I just have to believe in him. The kids life's are more important than mine.

"Emma..." I feel a tug on my sleeve "Are you okay?" I turn to see Phil all scared looking at me. "Yeah don't worry!" I ensure him. He looks at me the continue to eat.

I look at Phil questioning what Isabella could probably want to talk to him about, but questioning won't do anything I should ask.

"Phil..." I say, he looks at me. "What did Isa- I mean mom want to talk to you about?" I whisper loud enough for him to hear but, also quite enough for the other kids not to hear.

He looks at me "She asked me if I knew..." He said in my ear.

Why would she ask, more of how did she know we told him. Thoughts flooded my head in how she could of known and how stupid we are for letting her find out and putting Phil in danger.

"How does she know?" I question him as he eats trying not to bring attention to them.

"I think it's because I have high test scores she assumed I had to of known. I told her I didn't understand what she was talking about, I wanted to sound clue." He looks at me with his cat face smile.

I smile back ending the conversation. I continue to eat until it time to finish clean up and prepare for the night

This was kinda a short chapter but, I want to say that I hope everyone had a good holiday and a great new years. I'm excited for season 2 to come out, as of the time I'm writing this it's comes out in 2 days on Funimation and Hulu.
