episode four ; i plunge to my death
—
BEATRICE THORNTON awoke in her cabin. she looked around, wondering how she returned to her cabin. however; none of her brothers or sisters were in the room and it was impossible to tell if it was day or night.
"am i dreaming?" beatrice asked herself in a quiet mumble. she walked around the cabin she was in before her eyes caught a woman. she had blonde hair and light skin while wearing a gorgeous gown and heels. "hello?"
the woman turned around and as she did, her hair color changed to a brown color and the style of her hair became more curly, her face shape changed, her height changed and beatrice immediately recognized her.
"mom." the young adult smiled widely. aphrodite smiled at her daughter, opening her arms.
"how's my favorite daughter doing?" she asked as beatrice rushed toward her, crashing into her arms. "medusa didn't hurt you, did she?"
beatrice shook her head, burying her face in her mother's chest. "no, she didn't." she pulled away and smiled up at her mother. "why did you bring me back to the cabin?"
aphrodite cupped beatrice's face. she rubbed her thumbs over her cheeks. "how are you enjoying the quest, my darling?" she asked.
"it's been interesting." beatrice answered. "and stressful, but i'm managing... i miss luke, that's for sure."
"ah, yes... hermes son." aphrodite said then let her arms drop to her sides. "smart kid. handsome too. i have to say, you have excellent taste." she grinned at beatrice, but it fell all too quick. "but i have some bad news for you..."
"what's wrong?" the young adult asked. her expression turned into a look of worry. "what bad news? about luke?"
"don't trust him." aphrodite said. her look was far too serious along with her tone. "he may be charming and the perfect boyfriend, but believe me when i say this, beatrice — he's done some bad things." the young adult blinked at her mother and shook her head.
"what are you talking about? luke wouldn't do anything bad." beatrice said. her mother sounded so serious. does she really mean it? "ma, tell me."
"you need to wake up, dear." aphrodite's voice began to fade as her hand grazed against beatrice's face. "you'll soon find out what i mean and you will never be the same."
