Insane Love -RadioApple 📻-🍎

Family Jewels

As everyone dispersed, engrossed in their own activities, Pentious took Cherri by the hand and led her on a whimsical tour of his favorite places. Determined to keep her from causing any harm, he put forth his best effort to ensure a peaceful outing.

Meanwhile, Angel, with an air of restlessness, seemed to be on a quest of his own. His eyes darted around, as if searching for something elusive. Husk and Niffty, recognizing Angel's restlessness, decided to accompany him on his journey. They followed him closely, their steps synchronized with his every move.

As time went on, Niffty's energy began to wane. Fatigue settled in, and with a huff escaping her lips, she expressed her weariness. Sensing her discomfort, Husk, ever the pragmatic one, scooped her up into his arms with a grumble, effortlessly carrying her weight. Niffty nestled against Husk's chest, finding solace in his embrace as they continued their walk.

"An, what are you even looking for."

The trio found respite on a nearby bench, taking a seat to catch their breath. Angel's countenance was marked by dejection, his voice laden with remorse. "Sorry for dragging you along, guys," he muttered, his guilt palpable. However, Niffty, nestled in Husk's arms, had dozed off, oblivious to Angel's words.

"I was just lookin' for someone, but I don't know if she'll even want to see me. Not even my family in Hell wanna see me," Angel confided, his voice betraying his deep-seated pain. Husk, though initially perplexed, managed to piece together the fragments of Angel's story. Before he could offer any reassurance, a voice emerged from behind them, cutting through the heavy atmosphere.

"ANTHONY!" The exclamation roused the drowsy cyclops from her slumber. The trio turned around simultaneously, their gaze falling upon a girl who bore an uncanny resemblance to Angel. Tall and fair, with blond hair and pale skin, she donned a vibrant pink dress and a matching headband. Instead of pink dots adorning her face, they lined her nose, and she possessed four legs in place of Angel's four arms. Yet, there was no mistaking who she was.

"MOLLY!" Angel's voice cracked with a mixture of disbelief and overwhelming emotion. Without a moment's hesitation, he shot up from the bench and raced towards the female spider, his heart brimming with a flood of emotions.

The two arachnids embraced each other tightly, momentarily forgetting the world around them. As they finally parted, Angel gazed at his sister, tears welling up in his eyes. However, his expression suddenly changed, his face dropping with a mix of concern and surprise. "How are you even here, Molly? You did more meth than me," Angel blurted out, his suspision evident in his voice.

Molly shrugged, a touch of uncertainty in her eyes. "I don't even know, An. I really don't. Anyway, who is this?" she asked, her attention shifting to the rest of the group. With a mischievous glint in her eye, she continued, "Let me guess, husband and daughter? Hi, I'm Molly. Angel, your daddy issues are showing." Angel and Husk's faces flushed with embarrassment, their discomfort palpable. However, Niffty couldn't help but smirk, clearly amused by the sibling banter.

"Molly, cut it out. This is my boyfriend, Husk, and our friend, Niffty. You're just as annoying as I remember," Angel retorted, his tone a mixture of exasperation and fondness. The quartet continued their stroll, engaging in lively conversation, catching up on lost time, and sharing both laughter and heartfelt moments.

As Angel and Molly embraced the opportunity to reconnect, they cherished the precious moments they had together, knowing that their time was limited. They shared stories, laughter, and tears, reminiscing about their shared past and the experiences that had shaped them individually.

Niffty and Husk, initially unsure about how to navigate the introduction of a new friend, found themselves pleasantly surprised by Molly's warm and inviting nature. She effortlessly eased the apprehension they had felt, making it easy for them to open up and embrace her presence. Her genuine interest in getting to know them and her ability to find common ground quickly forged a bond between them.

Niffty, with her energetic spirit, found a kindred soul in Molly. The two of them engaged in playful banter, their shared love for vibrant colors and lively activities creating an instant connection. Husk, known for his guarded demeanor, gradually let his walls down in Molly's company. Her genuine warmth and acceptance helped him feel at ease, allowing their friendship to grow.

As they continued their time together, the quartet discovered a sense of belonging and camaraderie. Molly's presence added a new dimension to their dynamic, enriching their lives with her unique perspective and infectious enthusiasm. The challenges that Niffty and Husk initially anticipated were effortlessly overcome, as Molly's genuine nature and ability to bring out the best in people made them feel at ease.

However, as all good things must come to an end, their time with Molly eventually reached its conclusion. Despite the temporary nature of their connection, Angel, Niffty, and Husk were grateful for the friendship they had forged. The memories and experiences shared with Molly would forever hold a special place in their hearts, reminding them of the importance of opening themselves up to new connections and the joy that can come from unexpected friendships.

"Bye, Molly," the trio of demons waved farewell to the spider angel, their expressions filled with a mixture of gratitude and a touch of sadness at the parting. As she turned to leave the residence, Molly couldn't resist adding a playful touch to her departure.

"Don't forget to come say goodbye when you leave, guys! BYEEEEEE," Molly sing-songed, her voice carrying a lighthearted melody. Her words trailed behind them as they walked away, leaving a lingering sense of warmth and laughter in the air.

Angel, Niffty, and Husk glanced back, their faces breaking into smiles as they caught Molly's parting words. They waved one final time, their gestures filled with appreciation for the fleeting yet meaningful connection they had formed.

It made them a little less scared for the day ahead. The second heavenly trial.
