A couple of weeks passed since Eights sent the message. Sabine tried to keep moving on with her life, but it was hard. Tel stayed in a spare (Kay's) bedroom and Mouse slept on the couch. They hadn't had any luck with anyone agreeing to help. No one believed them, well Hera did, but she couldn't do much about it. Vent, Circuits, and Jessica agreed to help if they really needed it though, but other than that they were all alone on this one.
"Do you have any sevens?" Tel asked Mouse.
"No, go fish." Mouse told him and Tel gave Mouse a suspicious look, but drew from the deck anyway. Mouse had a tendency of cheating. "Your turn."
"Have any eights?" Mouse asked, looking at his card deck.
Tel glared at him. "NO I DON'T HAVE ANY EIGHTS!!" Tel flipped the holotable and stormed out of the room.
"I can't help it that eight is a number." Mouse yelled after him as Tel slammed his bedroom door shut. "Wait eight is a number right?"
Sabine nodded and sighed. "We all need a break." She said from the kitchen, where she was helping Amber with some school work.
"We really do." He got up from the table. "Well I'm going on a walk." Mouse packed up the game. "Be back around the same time."
Sabine nodded as he grabbed a water canister and walked out.
"I want to go bowling." Amber piped up, and closed her homework tab. "Please." She did puppy eyes at her Mom. "You did say we need a break."
"I want to go to the art museum." Freedom walked down the stairs and informed his mother. "They just added this new art piece by my favorite artist."
"Well I want to go bowling." Amber stuck her tongue out at Freedom.
"Well I don't." He stuck his tongue back at her.
"Well I do."
"I don't."
"I do."
"I don't."
"I DO! STOP SASSING ME SLEEMO!" Amber yelled at Freedom.
"Guys, don't fight." Sabine scolded, trying not to remember that one time when Amber got hold of a gun, unfortunately it was not on stun.
Freedom got shot in the side and was in a coma for about a week, and there's a scar where it hit, but he keeps it covered up.
"Fine." Amber agreed, but stuck her tongue out back at Freedom.
"How about we go see Kay?" Freedom suggested with a shrug. "I miss her already."
"I want to see Kay Kay!" Amber jumped up and down. "That's a good idea."
Freedom rolled his eyes at his sister.
"No, we can't see Kay." Sabine's heart wretched at the mention of her daughter, but she had a flashback to when she called Luke about seeing her.
Ezra had neglected to mention the whole forgetting part or maybe he did and Sabine just pushed it so far back in her mind she forgot about it.
༄
"Who is this?" Luke's voice called though the transmitter, apparently frustrated about something.
"It's Sabine Wren, Kay's Mom." She said, though the transmitter. "If this is a bad time I can call back."
"No it's fine." Luke responded and she heard shuffling on his end. "I just don't normally get calls, from a student's parent no less."
Sabine tried not to read too much into that dark undertone.
