SMOKE AND MIRRORS
never trust what you see

You groaned as you woke up realizing you slept in the library while your head remained laying on Ray's shoulders.

"Dummy, wake up" You claimed as you gently touched his silky hair. You held his hair strands and tugged it softly for you to thank him by giving a massage on his hair.

"Idiot stop touching my hair" Ray exclaimed as he sat on the floor with his arms stretching. "We should head back to our rooms" You murmured as you pointed the clock who's striking 3:00 am.

You swiftly returned to your room as Ray did the same, you entered inside the room with your guard let down. Unexpectedly, Mama was waiting for you inside your room.

"We should talk in a different place" Mama mumbled as you nodded, nervous of what she will do to you. You followed Mama's trail as you slowly clenched your fist feeling something is off. 

─ c r e a k

The door made a noise as she invited you inside her office, you entered with your bravery and sat on the couch like the usual.

"I had enough of your lies, It's fun playing with you" Mama mentioned making you chuckle. "I didn't know you love playing with children, Mama" You remarked and stood up.

"Why'd you call me then?" You asked deciding to end the conversation as soon as you can. You widened your eyes from what Mama mumbled as you glared on her.

"I've been honest with you this whole time" You said and clenched your fist as the doorknob clicked. "If you didn't played with me, maybe you could have extra two days" Mama muttered making you regret from what have you done.

"I'm not regretting anything, Like what I said, I'm ready to die." You uttered and shut the door as you entered inside the room where everyone is having their peaceful sleep.

You laid on your bed trying to sleep again, yet the words that Mama told you earlier kept ringing inside your mind.

Just wanted to let you know, you'll be shipped tonight ─ that Thought kept you awake the whole remaining time with your afraid expression."I don't want to die" You claimed and hugged the pillow crying you'll know what will happen later night.

Six o'clock sharp, everyone started getting up ready for another day planning their secrets. "Good morning Sister Krone" You greeted as you came downstairs with your lidded eyes.

"Stressed?" She asked and giggled as she avoided you again. "Good morning y/n!" Emma cheered as you returned her big smile, "Good Morning, Y/n" Norman chimed in with his calming smile.

"Good morning" You said and smiled as you started helping Ray picking up the dishes, "You got a lot of baggage under your eyes" He teased as the plates clang on the table.

I don't have an idea this could be so hard ─ You thought and giggled as you touched it. "I guess I should have slept earlier" You mentioned as Ray made a deadpanned face.

"Did you spend your night again in the library?" Norman asked as he approached your figure. "Ah, yeah" You answered as you rubbed your nape for making such a trouble for yourself.

"We should get ready, Norman's shipment is coming soon" Emma whispered only you, Norman and Ray could hear. "Yeah, We should get ready" You agreed and left the plates on the table as you ate with the others.

"Y/n? Don't you have an appetite?" Emma asked as she saw the unfinished plate. "Sorry, I think I'm not hungry yet" You murmured and left the table as everyone started eating while others were left worried such as Don and Gilda.

You went outside leaning on the tree humming as the shadow of it covered you. "Why didn't you eat?" Norman asked as he sat beside you, "I don't know, maybe my tummy isn't in the mood" You teased as you tapped your belly.

"Please eat, It will keep you healthy and of course, Prevent from getting ill" Norman claimed as he patted your head. "Holy lamb, that's my move" You cheered and ruffles his hair as he laughs in response.

"Hey let's all play tag!" Emma cheered just as planned. "You should join, smart ass" you cheered and pinched his cheek before letting him go ahead and started running with Emma.

Will I be able to see those smiles again? ─ before you could close your eyes. Someone flicked your forehead making you whine, "If you don't like the soup, go eat biscuits" Ray muttered as he tossed a pack.

"Alright alright, don't just flick me again" You whined and opened the package as you started eating. "Want some?" You asked as Ray shook his head declining your offer.

"Idiot" You said and brought your hand on his mouth as you pushed the bread inside his mouth. "Delicious right?" You asked as you giggled, "oh, Norman? What are you doing?" You asked as you saw Norman returning.

"I caught all of them" He stated as the group showed up with their disappointed face. "Cheer up! One day, You'll beat this lamb" You cheered as you saw Phil approaching you.

"Are you sad, Y/n?" He asked as he touched your cheek, "I'm fine, Go run and catch up with Gilda" You said and ruffles his hair. "Glad you ate" Norman murmured as he ruffled your hair.

"By this time, The pursuers started chasing them" Ray remarked as he pushed Norman away from you.

"Let's talk again" Norman uttered before running. "Idiot, Give me another one" Ray said as he took another bite on the bread you're holding.

As the Day passes by, you started packing your things secretly. You didn't want them to know, all of your schedule is a mystery. It all depends to Mama, no any schedule, you are ready to die. You don't want to ruin their smile from the last day you'll see them.

You went outside as you sighed no one was there, you softly knocked on the door where you know Norman is there. "Norman?" You asked as you opened the door, "I knew you'll be here" You mentioned and reached for his figure.

"You acted strange earlier" Norman said as he patted your back with your head hang low. "I'm sorry" You uttered and let the tears drip down your hands. "for what?" He asked and moved closer to you.

He held your shoulders, and brought your figure facing him. "You haven't done wrong y/n" Norman said as he hugged you whilst you were left sobbing cherishing his warmth."Bet you want cuddles?" He asked as you nod with your giggling smile.

The day passed by like the blink of an eye, you enjoyed the last day you have with them. You're prepared for everything especially the consequence you are facing.

"Wahh! The food is so good Mama!" They cheered and laughed on how silly the twins are. "It's not me who prepared them, it's your big sis y/n" Mama informed as the twins glimmered with their amazed faces.

"You're so cool!" They said as you smiled still can't get over on those things they've done while eating. "Big sis will just get somethings done" Mama informed as she sent you her popular smile.

You nodded your head and went upstairs as Mama invited everyone to start cleaning up, you held your bag and wore your hat. You wore your dress and braided your hair as you took a deep breath.

"This is it, The shipment" You said and came downstairs as the atmosphere changes from happy into terrified and worried ones.

"Y..Y/n?"
