TEA AND BLOOD
[ c h a p t e r t e n ] | Care for a little tea party? | "Thank you, for the tea."
"Why if it isn't Lilian, dearest."
I smiled at her.
"How have you been, Aunt Maria?" I have been away for five months and I just got back.
A pandemic occurred and I helped the doctors and scientists developed a cure. It was hard, and we all kept on experimenting day and night. Until I found a solution and we tried it, we ran tests and a few adjustments before turning it to tea. Of course I've got the credit.
I do love the attention but this is a bit too much, I feel like a godd*mn celebrity.
"It's been lonely here without you." she said.
"Ah but my presence often ruin the mood." I said in joking manner.
"Ah that's not true, care to have a little tea party?" she asked.
"With my friends of course." she grinned. I looked behind there and there was her dolls and a girl older than me trembling in fear. She was dressed with fancy clothes, her blonde hair tied up in a bun. But her make up is a mess.
"Who am I to decline." she clasped her hands together, smiling.
"Great!"
On our way towards the garden we passed Dion. It is no secret that Maria neglects him. Such cruelty.
I gave him a sympathetic look but I doubt he noticed as he avoided our gaze.
I sat down the chair, feeling relaxed. Finally some rest after months of continuous research, experiments and tests.
A lot has happened over the years and I will be turning twelve in three days. Sylvia and I became very close friends, we write to each other and hung out from time to time. Estelle and Asil were not fighting each other as much. Matilda gave birth to twins, a girl, and a boy, the boy looks like her and the girl resembles her husband. Jeremy and Charlotte was born.
The Mary Jane Drug was still the most popular drug in the black market followed by Khat, the drug I've also presented to this world two years ago. Khat is taken by brewing it as tea, its effect causes euphoria, increased alertness and arousal, increased blood pressure and heart rate, depression, paranoia, headaches, loss of appetite, insomnia, fine tremors, loss of short-term memory. When in a long-term usage it causes gastrointestinal disorders such as constipation, ulcers, and stomach inflammation and increased risk of heart attack. In rare cases associated with heavy use: psychotic reactions such as fear, anxiety, grandiose delusions (fantastical beliefs that one has superior qualities such as fame, power, and wealth), hallucinations, and paranoia. It is extremely hard to stop taking this drug as withdrawal causes depression, nightmares, low blood pressure, and lack of energy.
"So how's life? You've gotten more popular." she asked.
"Ah, it's fine. You know I love the attention." she chuckled.
I looked at the shaking girl beside me, looking at her teacup anxiously. The tea cup was emmiting a black, that means...death. I can see not only people's aura but things as well, same goes for shapeshifting...it's like they were leveling up, I can change my appearance to anyone I know the look of.
"L-Look out!" I shouted suddenly, that caused Maria to look behind her. I swiftly swapped our cups which earned a terrified look from the girl. I winked at her to reassure her. Maria turned back to face us.
"Ah, must be my imagination. I really need sleep." I said before fake yawning. I do lack sleep and I wan't to reunite with my bed so badly.
I handed the girl a small bottle of an unfinished potion that I invented in my free time at the centre, when brainstorming on how to end the pandemic. It is supposed to make a person unable to feel pain for a month, if it works then...
Awesome, wow.
If not and it has side effects...oh I'm sorry for her.
"Aww you poor thing." she messed with my hair.
I sip the tea from the cup and drank all of it.
"Thank you, for the tea." I said as she smiled, the girl smiled at me too.
"I shall take my leave to have some rest now." I left the garden with a sick feeling on my stomach.
