Echo of cognition(Book 3 of Forgotten Series)

Chapter 31

 I waited in my forest for Grandpa Tray but he was a no show I went home a bit unhappy but brushed it off.

At least this means hes doing his job. 

Well his job of just watching people get hurt. Then again I have heard  getting a job you love is the best. I wonder if Lloyd likes his job. Speaking of Lloyd." Kory?" Why  am I speaking out loud? Kory where are you?

Im with Drake and Derek.

Where though? Are you far away? Wheres Michael? Where is everyone at-

I screamed and looked at Veronica who clearly lost her damn mind using our bathroom and my bathrobe that I don't ever use( I really don't use bathrobes what do I look like some house mom or something? No Im a thug).

"Oh you're back early."

"Is that sarcasm?"

"Of course it is."

I snorted but decided I wasn't going to say anything else regarding that." Why are you never busy?"

"Im always busy hence the reason i'm usually gone."

True I guess." Get busy again." I went into my closet moving the hangers around looking for an outfit but not really caring. Not like i'm dressing up for anyone. The earring caressed my neck sending a comforting chill down my spine. I call a cold shower today. I have deserved it.

I took my shower hearing Veronica in the bathroom pacing. I ignored it the best I could. Not like I have privacy anyway....thats just human rights and stuff and me not being human proves that I am ....not worthy of getting such rights.

Thats it.

I pulled the curtain open peeking my head out." Get the hell out my bathroom!"

Veronica didn't seem phased, sad thing is she was looking exactly at me not giving one care in the world.

They have no souls like fa real. I finished my shower and asked for a towel and dressed in the shower. I opened the curtain irritated." Did you want something?"

"To talk."

"About?"

She walked out of the bathroom and stood by the window facing me arms crossed over her pretty white dress. Her millions of curls rested over her shoulders reaching her thigh. Even though its long I don't want to cut it. Maybe I just hate Yessica that much.

I plopped on the bed and waited for her to talk. Her emotions hit me even though it was already effecting me before.

Fear.

" I was told its in my place to tell you this and not...any one else."

I gulped and fidgeted. I feel like releasing some of this tension right now. No...be serious. Stay serious.

She paused for a long time. 

I gave up trying to be serious." You acting like you have never spoken to a person before. How old are you again? I know you might look 12 but still you got some age on you. You can't be the Guardian of Death having stage fright. Speaking of....never mind." I cut off my self. I'm always getting side tracked with everything.

"Did you just say I look 12?"

"Very much so."

"Are you kidding me!"

I shook my head." Nope im sure you look 12. You have a total baby face going for you. We have had this discussion. Don't act like you dont remember me saying this. I wasn't just saying it out of anger I was serious. You look 12."
