Baby Boom #2

Deeply in his late thoughts, Angelo didn't notice Mikaela's presence at the shop before getting called.

"I'm in the shower, don't enter !" He yelled.

There was no curtain because of the rudimentary back shop.

"Join us as soon as you finish, Angel." Told Mikaela.

After having heard of the existence of the small letter hidden in the baby's, or should we say, Seraphine's layer, Angelo had immediatly contacted Vince and then, Mikaela's under the cousin's recommandations, too far to act.

None of them exactly had an idea of what was going on, but they knew for sure that Angelo's mother was hiding or worst, dead.

After his shower, Angelo showed up, all clean and with a wild hair.

"I'm ready to go."

He had no choice but to left her sister under the ground, safe he hoped. That was a risky move, but he wasn't about to reveal her existence to Mikaela's auntie.

She had just been told that a kid of the Fraternity was in danger, and as an ancient member, she didn't argue. They just needed her help to contact some influent people, without telling too much, to obtain some protection or stuff like this.

Angelo wasn't sure of this idea, he didn't like the fact that more and more people were on this case, especially when he didn't know a lot about them nor if they were trustful.

Mikaela's auntie was kind and jovial, despite the situation, and a little bit curious. Under the cover of understanding the actual danger, she surely was fascinated by Angelo, which appeared really weird to the teenager and made him uneasy.

"Don't worry, she's always like that with everyone, but she's not a bad person." Whispered Mikaela, seeing the kid's distress.

This time, Mikaela's calm didn't relax Angelo at all, because he felt that something was odd, even if he now believed in the fat giant.

He kept an eye on the woman, and when she left the table to cook the so-called dissert, Angelo deeply wanted to go home, which meant, back to his sister's side.

"Mika', I'm leaving, I'm gonna find Seraphine back."

"Are you sure ? Alone ?"

"Yeah, I can't trust her, Mika."

That was the braviest thing he have said for a while, because she was part of his family and he could have seriously annoyed the giant.

"Fine, I'm protecting you, kiddo."

Angelo was left alone in the living room when Mikaela was talking to his auntie, finding an excuse.
During this little timing, Angelo analyzed the surrendings and didn't find a single strange object, maybe he was overwhelmed and then, was overreacting.

"We can go." Said Mika'.

Angelo opened the door without saying goodbye, seeing from the corner of his eye, the woman with a terrifying face which made him shiver.

"She's crazy !" Sweared Angelo.

The giant near him laughed.

"I apologize, I couldn't imagine she was going to intimidate a child. I think she was testing you."

"She's purely crazy, I can't believe you."

"And yet, she can't harm a fly."

Angelo didn't feel it. For some reasons, he knew he wasn't safe with this woman and perhaps even with Mika'.
He was going to keep a low profile for days until he needed more supplies.
