The Glyph Monado

Ch. 113: One Bad Day

A few days later, Luz was sitting on Boscha's bed at Triplet Manor, AKA her new home. The owl house, it was no more. A completely burned spot of rubble and ash, not furniture was salvageable and no human items were sellable. It was all just...gone. And it was ODALIA'S plan and fault! The only thing left was Eda's staff, which Luz hasn't let go of for four days, not even her phone and picture of her mom survived. Every picture of her mom and dad were now gone, with no clue if she'll ever see her mom again.

'I've lost.....everything.' Luz thought, gazing at Owlbert as he hadn't moved much since Eda's death. 'I've lost the portal, I've lost my things, I've lost Eda and King...I've lost everything.'

There was a knock on the door.

"Luz? Are... are you okay?" Boscha asked, "You missed dinner... again."

Luz hasn't left Boscha's room since that day, not to eat, not to drink, she hasn't even slept. She pretends to, but her and Boscha share the bed, and Boscha knows the rhythm of her girlfriends heartbeat when she's sleeping.

"Yeah, I'm okay." Luz said but that was a lie.

Boscha opened the door, showing she was carrying some dinner for Luz. She wasn't going to let Luz starve herself, depression or not.

"You sure? Mom made your favorite." Boscha said, walking to the bed and sitting the tray on the night stand.

"I'm not hungry." Luz said.

Boscha made a spell circle and turned herself into a muffin in front of Luz.

"Come on, not even for you delicious girlfriend?" Boscha asked, "Come on, I'm filled with nutrients."

Luz picked her up and placed her on the tray, completely ignoring her.

"Luz, please, I... I don't like seeing you like this." Boscha said.

"I said I'm fine, Boscha. I just need some time." Luz said, looking away from her.

"It's been four days and you haven't talked to us. Please, we just want to help you." Boscha said.

"I don't want to talk about it."

The muffin began hopping off the tray and hopped in front of Luz.

"Well too bad, because we're talking about it." Boscha said, "Luz, don't shut me out, please, I'm worried about you. I know you're dealing with a large amount of emotions right now, but let me help."

"I said I don't want to talk about it." Luz said.

"Luz, ple-"

Luz picked Boscha up and bit her mouth off.

'Well, my plan worked, she's eating something.' Boscha thought.

Luz put Boscha back on the try as Amethyst came out and curled up next to Luz, rubbing her side to show she was a support animal/palisman too. Boscha's eyes made it look like she was thinking, before they widened and began hopping off the tray, to the ground, and out of the room. She was hopping down the hall when Amity stepped on her. Amity lifted her foot and saw the flattened muffin stain.

"Sorry, Boscha." Amity said, turning her back.

Amity had Boscha's special spell book, that can return you back from any transformation spell, no matter how damaged you are, which is why Boscha had her mouth when turned back.

"Mittens, I have an idea." Boscha said, "Keep Luz company until I get back."

"Is it something risky?" Amity asked as Boscha ran off.

"A little but Luz needs this!" Boscha shouted back.

Amity's wondered what Boscha was planning, but she headed to Boscha's room to see Luz.
