CHAPTER FOUR: alternate
dimensions !

WARNING: swearing,


- A HAND touches my shoulder which takes me by surprise, I had been there when spider-man died and it messed with me a lot. I wish I would've done something to prevent it but that guy..kingpin was 2x bigger than me. there's nothing I could've done...and weirdly enough, Nico just left us- he didn't bother to help me take miles home, so I'm a little mad at him.

I just can't believe Nico left us and acted like nothing happened, as much as I wanted to cuss him out I couldn't..he was still our friend at the end of the day.

I just hope miles is okay, since he liked spider-man and looked up to him.

Nico walks up the stairs to his mom's apartment and tries opening the door, he sighs when he realizes it was locked. he struggles to open the door, he tries kicking it open but nothing works.

"You trying to open the door?" Himiko asks while keeping the key on the lock on the other end, there was no reply as nico kept trying to open the door.

Then, finally, he answers.

"Yes. please, open the door. don't do this." Nico says as he tries jamming the door open in a more aggressive manner. "I need some sleep, okay? I was out late and I know I'm supposed to be at school right now but I can't go back."

"Do you know how much hard work I put into getting you in that school?" Himiko asks, clearly angry, she keeps the lock on the door without making any move to unlock it.

Nico doesn't reply and then bangs on the door this time, he knew how much his mom would disown him about this- it was nothing new, this happens every day.

They weren't on good terms.

"Mom, please, open the door." Nico begs while he desperately tries opening the door and kicks it relentlessly, he just witnessed somebody die and..this wasn't good for him at the moment. It made things worse.

She was making things worse.

"Mom, mom open the door." Nico says while trying to unlock it again. "please! please, please! I'm cold and tired, I need to sleep I need to..Just please!" he shouts.

Himiko yanks the door open and Nico immediately steps inside, shutting the door behind him and breathing heavily, his eyes were red from crying but Himiko thinks it's something else when she gets a closer look.

She cups his cheek and gazes into his eyes while shaking her head. "You smoke now or something? was it that rob kid again?" she asks while scoffing.

Nico turns to her. "what did you just ask me? after I told you I'm cold and tired? oh my..mom," he paused. "I'm not smoking. I don't smoke and you know that. so why the questions now?"

Himiko just shakes her head and pinches the bridge of her nose before going back to folding clothes. "I always knew you'd be.. something. but I thought it'd be for the good, the better. not whatever you're into now, it's like I don't even know my own son anymore."
