To Be, Or Not To Be|| SPY X FAMILY

Anya||Back to Eden (2)

After everyone was settled in the banquet Hall, Becky was unfortunately busily hauled away by a group of our classmates to whom she rambled on and on about her recent visit to Venice as they listened with fervour.

I awkwardly looked around the hallway and took a random drink in my hand. Watching Becky so effortlessly roll into conversation with other people made me anxious, not to mention...

Damian Desmond kept looking back and forth, he kept glancing at my subtle while Natalia Ruefield batted her eyelashes at him flirtatiously. She noticed his back and forth endeavour and proceeded to glare at me before tugging on his arm.

I sighed.

My mission was not upto a good start at all.

Emile and Erwin looked bored with the conversation and Damian looked fed up. He tried his best to loosen Natalia's grip but it was up to no avail, each time he did so, her hands would unconsciously (or consciously) slip back to his arm. Eventually, he had no choice but to subjugate himself to her grip, ever holding a stoic expression and stiff composure. Natalia paid no attention to his discomfort and in all her glory, went on and on.

Decidedly, I began to stroll around the hall aimlessly, it was better than standing still, with nobody to talk to and found myself indulged in a heated debate between George Gloom and Sasha Knightley about cyanide being used in detergents.

Anya...

A soft inner voice entered my head

I need to tell her that I–

I turned around and looked directly at Damian, he met my expression with his and I tried to give him a 'We'll talk' look, he seemed to have some perplexion but sent me an understanding look.

"Damian!" Natalia indignantly beckoned towards him, he flinched slightly and turned around with a forced smile "You were saying....?" he replied in a bored tone and so she carried on.

Eventually bored as Sasha and George's conversation wasn't deeming to a conclusion anytime soon, I started to read people's minds for entertainment purposes.

Man I can't wait to go home and watch Berlint in Love... in secret... a deep monologue emerged

I need to pick my nose so bad, someone whined

Ella's eyes widen as Jefferson slides his hands up her thigh and towards her–

I wonder if my wife is okay.

I wish I could tell someone how badly I need to take a shit but no one is shutting up!

Oh right, mother said to not drink too much

Oh poor Anya, I hope she's okay, the love of her life is being hogged entirely by another woman, Becky's dramatic tone engulfed my head.

I groaned, of course Becky was still secretly adamant about the whole ordeal. More importantly, someone needed to tell George how much Sasha actually liked him.

More importantly, my mission.

I turned and walked towards the whole lot, Natalia was yelling at Emile because he got her the wrong drink and Erwin was lost in thought about his new girlfriend. Natalia was the first to notice me and forced a smile, clearly in loathing.

"Anya! I haven't had a chance to talk to you the entire evening" Natalia greeted me loftily

"You haven't shown up in the past 4 years! What made you have a change of heart?"

It was better when you weren't there.

"A change of heart?...hm.. I suppose I'm here for the same reasons you are" I responded
