 At dinner time sat Nathaniel with Lila, Juleka and Rose together having dinner.
"You know, what you could do Nath?" Asked Rose. "You could open a comic book store"
"A comic book store?" Asked Nathaniel.
"Yeah Nathy, you could sell there other comics, including yours" Suggested Lila. "Isn't that, what you have wanted?"
"I did, I did, but I don't know"
"Are you afraid, that no one will like your comics?" Asked the brunette. "Come on, they're great!"
"That's what you say, the others probably will be different towards it."
"Don't worry, I'll convince them to read the first ones."
"I could read one, it's not that bad, as you think Nath. That I can already tell you"
"Well alright, but be careful. It's drawn by hand" Told Nathaniel leaving the dinner table walking back into his room.
"I love the meat sauce Lila. It's so delicious" Complimented Rose glaring at the brunette, which accepted the compliment with a smile.
Nathaniel left the room with a few comics and distributed it to the girls.
"Oh this girl looks just like you!" Mumbled Rose, while eating meat and splashing a bit of the sauce on the table, nearly hitting the comic.
"R...r...rose" Tried Nathaniel to warn her carefully.
"Oh Nath, I'm so sorry" Said Rose taking her serviette to clean her face up. "Is that Lila?"
"No, they're two random characters, which were randomly created. Any real-life appearances are just pure coincidence" Told Nathaniel while the blonde girl turned a few pages to see there a character, talking with an elderly man.
"I'm Laila Rossi, yes I am Miss Vixen, just like you said"
"Obviously a coincidence," Said Rose looking at Nathaniel, which looked away from Rose.
"I swear it's a coincidence," Told Nathaniel feeling embarrassed.
"And Super Nathan" Said Juleka. "His real name is Nathanaël Kurzberg"
"Without the T" Pointed Rose out as she looked at Juleka's comic book.
"Nice"
"You two are so cute together, even in comic book's you get together" Said Rose dreamy.
"In number 65 I think, at 22 Fire Marshall joins Super Nathan's team and in 24 it's Miss Vixen" Explained Nathaniel. "Super Nathan and Fire Marshall are like brothers and Fire Marshall admires him and Miss Vixen. Both are also amazed by her. She shows a lot of girl power in their team and they work well together""
"And that girl power made Super Nathan get attracted to" Added Lila with a wink.
"I'd say so" Responded Nathaniel and the doorbell rang, getting all to look at the door. "I'll be going?" Asked Nathaniel, which was still standing and walked towards the door, then opened it. "You got to be kidding me, right?" Asked Nathaniel and Lila looked along with the other girls at the entrance to see there Ana standing in front of the entrance.
"Hello Nathy" Greeted Ana, making Lila growl at her. "Are you okay?"
"I was, before I opened the door and saw you" Responded Nathaniel cold.
"Don't be mad at me" Flirted Ana passing her hand on Nathaniel's cheek, then he grabbed it to make her stop and Lila left her seat, making her way to the two.
"Leave my man alone!" Demanded Lila looking mad at Ana.
"He's not your man like you're calling"
"We're engaged, look here my wedding ring," Lila said, while showing the girl her ring finger with it.
"Well he did a bad choice," Said Ana. "Why is he wasting his time with you, with a worthless girl like you are?" Asked Ana, while Juleka and Rose looked at each other, wondering if they should interrupt. From the room of Lila the kwami Trixx looked out observing the three talking all with eah other a bit louder, than usual.
"Not that girl again" Said Trixx to herself and flew up at the top, observing the talk of them.

"Come on, she probably doesn't want to be a mother, she just got pregnant, so, that she could keep you home with her"
"What?" Asked Lila astonished about, what Ana said.
"What you say, doesn't even make sense." Said Nathaniel. "Why won't you leave us alone?"
"Nathy, leave it to me," Said Lila pulling Nathaniel slowly back. "It's between her and me"
"No Nathy, stay" Demanded Ana.
"Hey don't call him Nathy. Nathy is my nickname for him"
"Stop seeing him as an object"
"Who is seeing him as an object?" Asked Lila glaring at the raven-haired girl.
"I feel like I was seen as a dog....." Added Nathaniel being ignored by the girls.
"You, who else"
"For me both are, but like I said. I'm going to marry Lila, whether you like it or not"
"Too bad, she didn't suffocate on that day, she did the ultrasound at the hospital," Said Ana walking the entrance along into the corridor, where the girls were having their dinner.
"Who told you that?" Asked Lila walking behind the Portuguese girl.
"It was definitely not me" Responded Nathaniel looking back at the girls, to see, what they were going to do.
"Of course not. I was there present on that day, but no one knew that" Said Ana walking back to the exit, leaving the room.
"She left" Said Juleka and Rose nodded.
"Was she really there?" Asked Rose looking at Lila and Nathaniel, then Lila wide her eyes as the solution came into her mind.
"I think she was that dark-dressed person, who wanted to kill me," Told Lila glaring at Nathaniel a bit with a shocked expression.
"Damn that girl is insane" Shouted Nathaniel out and walked back to the other housemates.
"At least we know, that she was the one, who tried to kill her" Said Rose. "Tell it the cops and they're going to visit Ana and resolve this situation"
"Well, I don't know, if the cops believe this or if we have to get interrogated or her" Said Lila walking up to Nathaniel to comfort him with a little hug.
"We are witnesses, we heard her saying that, so that won't be a big problem," Said Rose looking at the young couple.
"Thank you, Rose, you're the best," Said Lila looking at the blonde.
"No problem" Replied the blonde back. "Come on you two, sit down and keep eating," Told Rose and the couple looked at each other then went back to their seats, to keep eating the meal, that Lila had cooked.
