New York,
Lunch.

Joseph

I'm punishing Lucien regardless. That is not a way to treat your little sister.

I understand that he might be having a hard time adjusting to her being back since it was such a heartbreak for him when she left due to them being the closer but I won't allow him to be so disrespectful.

But for now it's breakfast time.

Haydee had her head on the table with her eyes closed. She looked so adorable.

I cut up my lasagne and and plated my son their food and made sure to save some for Haydee to eat later.

"nous ne pouvons pas la laisser aller à l'école la semaine prochaine, papa." Elliot said as soon as we started eating.

(Translation: we can't let her go to school next week dad)

My boys agreed with eachother that it wasn't safe for her to go but I say otherwise.

"nous ne pouvons pas leur faire savoir que nous nous sentons menacés par eux. nous devons garder la tête haute et leur montrer qui nous sommes. nous sommes Monet et nous nous protégeons quoi qu'il arrive, donc elle ira bien avec les jumeaux à l'école et nos gardes qui se fondront dans la masse." I told them hoping they'd understand.

(Translation : we cant let them know we feel threatened by them. we must keep our heads high and show them who we are. we're Monets and we protect eachother no matter what so she will be fine with the twins at school and our guards who will blend in.)

"But dad it's dangerous!" Fabien suddenly yelled making our eyes instantly turn to my princess who's eyes were still closed.

We stayed silent for a few seconds and heard little snores. She fell asleep and still looked so adorable!

We chuckled quietly at her cuteness and went back to discussing her situation.

"papa we can't let anyone take her again. I cant loose her again." Cedric said with tears in his eyes. Haydee had always been an emotional topic for us.

"We won't, my son. I'll fight protecting her even if it gets me killed." I stated knowing I was being truly honest. My sons agreed that they would do the same which made me so proud. Family is everything.

Haydee started mumbling words that were barely audible . "Mummy please...no no....i was a good girl today.." she whispered loud enough for us all to hear.

"The fuck?" Lucien said, confused at her tone of fear.

What had Rosette done to her?

Suddenly, she sat up with a gasp with her hand on her heart.

"Relax papillon." Fabien said from besides. "You okay?" We asked which she replied to with a nod.

"Can I have some water please?" She asked groggily while rubbing her eyes. Elliot immediately got up to pour her some water and handed it to her. "And a straw please." She requested staring at the glass infront of her.

Apparently she bought some party straws when she went shopping. Elliot have her a pink swirly one.

She whispered a thank you and started taking small sips.

"Comment faire pour qu'elle s'ouvre à nous, papa ? Rose a définitivement fait quelque chose comme—" Lucien started but was cut off by the sound of my princess blowing in her straw to make a bubbling sound with the water.

(Translation : how do we get her to open up to us, dad? Rose definitly did something
like—)

"It's really rude to have a conversation in a different language infront of someone who clearly doesn't understand." She said with a pout. "You're so adorable! I'm sorry princess we'll talk in english." Gabriel apologised giving her a side hug and kissing her on the side of her head.

She pulled away and wiped her head with a dirty look making us all chuckle.

"Yeah we'll talk English what the hell were you nightmaring about?" Lucien questioned with an angry tone.

"Not now Lucien." I said.

Haydee

"What.." I whispered, my breath got caught up in my throat. Did I say anything? Did I say anything that reveals my past?

"What did Rose do to you? You were begging her about something saying you've been a good girl." Elliot explained with a raised eyebrow. Quick think of a lie!

"Um it was just a memory when i really wanted this doll everyone in the neighbourhood had and mum said if i behaved and got all my school work right she would get me it!" I said with embarrassment so they couldn't tell i was lying.

They called me childish and laughed but atleast it worked...right?


2:00pm

I sat there and waited till ever finished eating and cleared the table until I plated myself some food.

I ate silently staring at the blank wall. This lasagne was delicious. Possibly the best thing I've ever had!

I wonder when this privilege would end though. I hope they do it before I get used to it all or that would just be cruel.

"Watcha thinking about?" A voice said making me jump. "Sorry munchkin!" He said ruffling my hair.

"Gabrielll." I whined shooing his hair away. "I'm trying to eat in peace." I said with a scowl.

"What's peace without me?!" He said looking offended.

He sat down on the seat across from me, blocking my view of the very interesting wall.

"Everyone's gone out and I'm bored." He finally confessed taking a bite out of my lasagne. I was done with it anyways but I managed to eat a little more than a quarter.

"You can eat it all." His eyes lit up as I said that. Fatass.

"Oh thanks baby sis!" He said before devouring the whole thing.

A thought came to me head and since we were both bored there was no harm in suggesting something is there?

"Can you teach me how to use my phone please?" I asked very sweetly. "Sure go fetch your phone."

I jumped up from my seat and ran upstairs to get my phone. Dad did say he was going to take my phone once I get it. I mean Joseph.
