Marked: Part 2; The Wronged

Chapter 54

Along came Saturday morning and Oglm was coming down the stairs as per his normal routine. He cooked up breakfast as he did every morning, being just as quiet as usual. He was making omelets with cheese quesadillas, hash brown patties, milk and the typical ketchup. Each one was special and made from scratch, specifically for its caterer. It would just be getting cool when Amilia and Leo would be coming down the stairs for school. Yet, it was Saturday and he got called in quite early, and he was still preparing their meals. Though today was special of course, he was bringing breakfast to Seyoek too. After he finished it had barely reached four o'clock in the morning. He packed up two breakfasts, his and Seyoek's. He put all his things together in his handbag and went to the opening of the living room. He looked up from the floor and saw that the TV was on. He continued to walk until he was almost perfectly in front of the couch. He set his bag down a moment and then walked over into the kitchen and up the stairs. He came back down and then quietly went into the living room. He went to the couch and unfolded a blanket. The two of them, Leo and Amilia, fell asleep to some sort of show. Oglm also saw that her arm was glowing, it didn't seem to bother her, but he went into his office anyway to grab a certain artifact. He put a dog tag around her neck and that seemed to stop it. This made her smile and snuggle up closer to Leo. Oglm proceeded to pick up his bag and proceed outside the sliding glass door. He vanished through the woods and into The Market. He walked past all the bustling stores that had barely just opened. He made his way over to a shambled old shack, lights were on as usual and the traditional sign had been posted. Oglm knocked on the door and then walked in as he opened it.

"Mr. Oynm (O-nim)." Oglm started. "It's me, sir." Oglm continued through the small home.

"Ah, Oglm." He said giving Oglm a nuggie. "Nick to see, Seyoek down hallway."

"Thank you , Mr. Oynm." Oglm said bowing. Oglm walked down the hallway and knocked on a door. "Tis' me, my love."

"Come on in good sir." Oglm opened the door.

"I haven't much time, so I'm afraid our visit will be short." He sat down and took out the two containers.

"You brought breakfast?"

"I did, indeed." He handed her hers and then proceeded to open his, himself.

"Aw, Oglm." Seyoek said. "It smells marvelous, as always."

"Well thank you."

"Where did you learn to cook?"

"My brother."

"Really?"

"Yes, he was quite a cook, but he showed off. He would have us all sit around a stove top and he would do some fancy, frilly tricks with food, sauces, and stuff like that."

"Now, did you just copy him or did he teach you?"

"Oh he taught me."

Seyoek laughed, "You say that as if it's a bad thing."

"No, no, it's good."

"Alright, why did he teach you?"

Oglm laughed, "Wouldn't you like to know."

"Ugh, fine." There was silence for a minute before they began to speak again.

"You picked out a beautiful dress for the ball."

"Your suit was just as nice." There was silence again.

"So I've been thinking-" Oglm started.
