Ch. 18

Sting

Man, Lucy's house is huge! She showed us around and I was in complete awe. Rogue was too.

"You guys wait in the living room while I go get changed," Lucy said, walking out of the large room.

Rogue took a seat while I started looking around.

"We should tell her," Rouge states, breaking the silence. I stayed quiet. This isn't something that could be blurted out, something that I can bring up like its no big deal. Even though I've known Lucy for a few weeks, I can trust her with anything. Well, almost anything. Telling her that shouldn't be a problem, it's just how she'd think of us afterwards.

"I don't know, what if she gets-"

A small picture frame caught my attention. It was a picture of little Lucy sitting on a bed next to someone who I'm guessing is her mom. She looks exactly like her. In the back was a man who I'm guessing is her dad, and it looked like he tripped over one of Lucy's dolls. Lucy and her mom were laughing. They looked happy.

My heart clenched. There are times when I wish I knew my mom. I envy people sometimes, I've always wished to have moments like these with my parents.

"-Sting!" I turned my head sharply to the voice.

"You alright there?" Lucy looked concerned. Rouge was starring as well, smirking. Tch.

"Yeah I'm fine, what's up?"

"Dinners ready."

"Thanks you guys! That Dongpo Pork Curry Don was delicious!" I licked my lips, imagining how tasty everything else they can cook would be. The food was not only greaseless on the surface, it also maintained both the sweet and spicy flavor in the meat and rice!

"Let me help clean up," I offer. Miss Spetto declines but I chose not to listen. Getting up from my seat, I head over to her and grabbing the plates in her hand. Rouge cleans the table while Lucy and I start washing the dishes.

All of a sudden I hear something break. It was a glass cup that was now shattered on the ground right in front of Miss Spetto. She was staring at Lucy and I with an uneasy look. She looked tense as well.

"Miss Spetto, are you alright?" Lucy and I ask in unison. She didn't answer though. She looked like she was about to faint. Miss Spetto would've fallen if it weren't for Rouge catching her.

She pat down her apron and cleared her throat once she was on her feet, "Sorry to worry you children. I'm fine. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go tidy up Mr. Heartfilia's office."

I'm confused, what just happened?

Okay so, one month of freshman year down.

We've been busy so updates aren't so frequent. Sorry about that.

I'm trying my best to write but I'm still having trouble. It's probably because I haven't watched the anime in a while or something, idk.

Anyways, I'll try my best to update more.

Hope you enjoyed the chapter, Vote and Comment~
