Winter's POV
I watched in horror as he smashed my phone with his hoof.
No... he did not just do that.
"We're really sorry Winter." Annabeth said. My phone... it had pictures of me and mom in it. Now all gone.
Instead, I plastered a fake smile on my face. "No. It's fine." My eyes turned glassy. "It's for the best. After everything, I think I need to let go of distractions."
"We'll repay everything." Chiron--who was now in his wheelchair form--said. He really looked sorry.
"No. It's fine." I said halfheartedly. It was not fine at all. "Let's just proceed with the meeting. Don't want to waste time, right? My eyes are becoming heavy like two planets." I joked and gave a humorous smile just to lighten the mood. They chuckled.
I don't want to see anything sad because of me. It was just a phone anyway.
"Now, Will. You be the one to carry on." Annabeth said, writing something on a notepad.
"I just have something that's bothering me." He said, scratching the back of his neck. "She's not my sister right?"
"Will, seriously!" A brunette girl, probably the leader in Ares' cabin said. "You see those eyes? The way you guys act, the hair and the last name?!"
"I know, Clarisse." Will said. "But my mom promised me that I will be the only child!" My eyes widened.
"If you say so." The girl rolled her eyes but her emotion changed from annoyance to pure annoyance and anger. "Stop being so foolish! There's also something called 'The Mist' right? Why won't you just get--"
"Stop it!" The sleeping guy a while ago yelled, making the whole place silent. I was finally glad to hear him speak. "It seems like we need more proof." He sighed, his eyes looking heavy. "Will and Winter, what's the name of your moms?"
"Wilma Solace." We both replied in unison.
What the...?
"You see? I'm awesome." He yawned and fell into deep sleep. I felt like I also wanted to sleep already by just hearing him snore.
The girl whose name is Clarisse smirked. "Told ya."
"I swear this is not--" Will choked. He stood up from his seat and ran away.
Even until now, Annabeth was taking notes. Seriously? Even after that dramatic scene, she's still doing that... that horrendous thing.
Finally, she capped her pen and closed her notebook. "Clarisse might be right."
Clarisse sighed in relief. "Finally. Somebody agrees with me."
Annabeth ignored that. "The Mist. And you know Hera, just getting memories of people without asking permission."
Clarisse rolled her eyes. "In short, she's a bit--"
"Mind your language, Clarisse." Chiron warned. She just crossed her arms.
"Anyways, what I was saying." Annabeth said, a little annoyed. "Hera probably stole the memory of Will having another sister and replaced it with a memory that his mom promised him that he would not have another sibling, that he would be the only child."
Is this why she was busy with her notepad all along? Ugh, smart ass people.
"Hmm..." Chiron scratched his chin. "Correct but..."
