Chapter 4

"About your Lucy.. or rather your mother"

"Yeah..?" A rather nervous Margo, Felonius' and Lucy's oldest daughter replies

I didn't particularly see me explaining to a group of young girls that due to an unbeknownst reason to us all, their mother collapsed in the centre of a street not far from the house, nor did I see myself doing this today, but I suppose due to Felonius' understandably nervous state, I wasn't really left with a choice

As I stand there with tears threatening to spill from my bottom eyelid, I bite my lip to prevent its trembling, as I close my eyes to try to compose myself before I spill the news. Though, due to my prolonged silence and eyes threatening to spill, Margo, the oldest of the three, seemed to develop a brief idea inside of her head as to their mothers sudden disappearance.

"She didn't... She hasn't..-"
Margo tries to say, but it seems the words become trapped in her throat.

"No sweetie, don't worry.. you're mum isn't.. she isn't dead, okay?"

She released a sigh as a tear she didn't know she was holding back spilled down her left cheek, reaching her chin before leaving a small tear stain mark on the collar of her green jacket.

"Good.. that's good. That still doesn't answer my question??"
Margo says, seemingly becoming less and less patient with both me and Felonius' lack of words.

"As her children, we have a right to know what happened to our mothe-"
Edith goes to say, before I can't take it anymore

I begin to wail somewhat loudly as my hand slips out of Felonius' as I fall down onto my knees

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry okay? I'm sorry I can't find the words to tell you how much that sight hurt. How horrifying it is to see my childhood friend, your mother, laying on a floor, unconscious, laying there barely showing any signs of being alive. I'm sorry I'm scared, you need to understand this isn't just hard on yo-"

"Get out."

"What..?"

I look up to meet eyes with a seemingly angered Gru, of whom seems to be on his last nerve.

I look at him, as my eyes tear up once more

"You don't mean that.. you're just upset. You're angry and that's oka-'"

"Do I need to repeat myself? Are you as dull as you are insensitive? Yelling at my kids whilst they stand, unaware of their mothers fate? Don't make me repeat myself. I said, get OUT of my house."

"Felon-"

"DON'T call me that."

"Gr-"

"Get. Out."

I scramble up from my position, desperately and quickly shuffling out of the door of Gru's house, both scared and sad as he slams the door forcefully behind me. I begin to walk faster, as I look behind me pointlessly before continuing.
