Why can't we be together?

-_-

No one knows what Mary said to Rin, or even why Rin left in such  a hurry. All anyone knows is that it must've been bad. Rin left with one of the most serious faces I bet you've ever seen. 

 "Rin, where're you going in such a hurry?!" Ij'Mahri called out to her friend. She tried to go after Rin, but Rosalynn grabbed her arm. "Idiot, look at her face. Something is wrong."Rosalynn said to her friend. 

Ijmahri , looking at Rin's expression, saw that something did look wrong. 'What did Mary say to Rin?' Ijmahri said in her head. Mary sat silently where Rin had left her, her head down.

Rebecca stood a short ways away, wondering if she should go over there. Sighing, she went over to Mary and sat down next to her. Mary stayed silent. Rebecca wondered nervously what she could possibly say to her friend to make her feel better.

"S-so? Sunny day isn't it?" Rebecca stuttered. 'Wow! Good job Rebecca!' She said to herself, mentally face palming herself. Despite her poor attempt at conversation, Mary gave a weak chuckle.

"That was a weak attempt at conversation, but thank you." Mary said, wiping a small tear off of her face. There was a short silence between them, they both didn't know what to say.

"Well........this is kinda awkward ." Rebecca said. "He he. Yeah." Mary said awkwardly, rubbing the back of her neck. Rebecca stood up. "Let's go find everyone else!" Rebecca urged her friend. Mary groaned while standing up. "Fine."

When Rebecca and Mary finally found their friends, they saw two new additions to their group. "Rhiannon! Vianca!" Rebecca said in surprise. The two girls turned to the surprised girl.

Rhiannon had shoulder length blonde hair and pale skin. Vianca had  long, curly black hair that went to her waist and tan skin. "Oh. Hey, Rebecca." Rhiannon said with a small wave. "Hey, my children!" Vianca half-yelled in excitement.

Ijmahri suddenly came into Vianca's view, holding 6 salted pretzels. "Mom, I thought me and Faye were your only children." Ijmahri said in confusion. "No. No. No. You're all my children." Vianca said, gesturing to everyone. 

"welp." Rosalynn said, with a shrug. Ijmahri chuckled as she gave everyone a salted pretzel. Mary took the pretzel cautiosly. Looking around at all of her friends, she gave a small smile.

For now, she'll just enjoy this moment and ignore her depression.
