Garlis : Miss. Should we go to a further out place. Or a further but within the town place ?

Nana :.... Not sure.

" Got it." And Garlis starts the car.

Yui : why are you here ?

Ellis : I... Don't know... Mr Xerxes said I'm here to return a deal...

Yui : that annoying god !!

Ellis : huh ?

Yui : you need to leave.

Artietra: not according to Garlis or Miss. She intends to honor some deal.

Yui : she can live without making this one.

Artietra ; not your decision.

Yui : tsk.

Ellis : Yui... ?

Yui ; you are explaining everything to her .

Ellis : huh ? Did I do something wrong ?

" How's the deal coming along ?"

Xerxes : I get vindictive. But usually our types like to go for the throat. You could. Especially now that she's weak.

" No. This is better. She gets to suffer. We have a deal. Remember? You pity her ?"

Xerxes : that's mean. Trade gods always honor their deals and promises. It hurts us if we break it.

" Hmph. "

Jon, her third kid who had chosen to continue life till now has returned home. He did give Garlis a spare key only for her to come stay as she wanted.

Jon walked through the door and sees Garlis " again ?" Garlis nodded. " Have you had dinner ?"

Jon ; nope. I guess I'll be getting good food for a while.

Garlis smiled " you should hire a cook. I can refer."

Jon shakes his head " it's ok. " He walked over to the living room " hi mama"

Nana was lying on the couch " hi..."

Jon : someone made you sad again ? Or angry ?

Nana : what ? I can't come just because I want to ?

Jon sat onto his couch " come on. You know you always come here when Garlis cannot handle you."

Nana : hmph ! No wonder you're still single !! Always rebutting people !

Jon ; I got married twice. That didn't stop you from coming.

Nana : hey !! Your wives were just... Kind and nice enough!!

Jon : what happened? Talk to me.

Nana : I've been living so long

Nana : I've been living so long... Longer than you... Cos you know...

Jon ; because you're a god. And ?

Nana ; does that make me not love-able ? Is it a general rule that gods can't love ? We only exist to grant people's wishes ?

Jon ; nonsense. I love you.

Nana : you're my kid !! You have to !!

He laughed a little " something do with ex lover ? Or Yui ?"

Nana: .... I'm not sure he loves me. I don't even know if I want to hear what he wants from me... What if I get soft hearted and agree ?

Jon ; you are already soft hearted.

Nana : .... Ellis Christion. Maybe she's the one for him ? I'm the one in the way ?

Jon: then why did he come back to you for ?

Nana : to want something from me I think.

Jon ; then you have to ask.

Nana : I'm afraid to ask.

Jon : I'll ask for you. How's that ?

Nana : don't you have to manage the bank ? It's a new position right ?

Jon ; you know the law. I have to change my job every 35 years because I keep extending my life. This one is just another seat warmer.

Nana : I heard someone especially invited you.

Jon shrugged " we'll see how fun this job is. "

Nana : see. You'll be busy.

Jon : for you, I'm always free. Ok ? Mama.

Nana : mmm... Ok.

Artietra: Yui.

Yui : nana is back ?

Artietra: no... Mr Jon is here.

Jon enters the apartment unit and sits down like it was his house " hi Yui.  "

Yui : nana does tell you everything.

Jon : everything almost. Even though, there's other kids that she adopts along her life.... They come and go... But I am one of those that stay.

Yui : for her, I know.

Jon : right... You're Shadow Demon too. I stay this long of a life partly for my mother. She does need taking care of. Sister Esther always talks about it when she's alive. That if I were to continue my life, she hoped I would take care of mother as long as I lived.

Yui : the 7 of you were always protective of her, although not blood related.

Jon: she protected us too. Never let us get bullied. Killed several people even for the tiniest things.

Yui : I know. She told me to kill them just because of school bullying

Jon : so you know what happens if you do the same thing to my mother.

Yui ; I'm not hurting her on propose.

Jon : really? Why are you back ? What do you want from her ?  If you don't love her, don't lie to her. It's hard for her love. Harder for her to forget.

Yui : I'm glad she had children like you. But I'm not lying to her. I love her.

Jon : but you do want something from her ?

Yui : No . I don't.

Jon ; then what is Ellis about?

Yui: I know nana is sad right now. But she needs to know I never intended to hurt her. Can I have your permission to go find her ?

Jon ; .... Fine. But I'm coming with.

Victoria stepped out from the walls " Erm... Ellis has ran. From the house and room we put her in. No idea where she went. She left after she picked up a call."

Jon: what's the call about?

Victoria: the furniture doesn't belong to the house ! I can't control that !

Jon : sorry.

Artietra runs in gasping " I placed a tracker spell on her. We can track..."
