KASPIAN

     Kaspian knew something  was wrong the moment  he stepped inside the floors of his home  . "Where have you been Kaspian ?" Cassandra , I mean his Mom  asks,  concern  in her  eyes. It's  almost midnight and the boy  just came home.

The boy walked upstairs and was about to go to his room, "Kaspian" he heard from his Dad's office.  He came inside, "you called? " he asked closing the heavy door behind  him.

"Where have you been all night  young man ?" his voice was calm but loud. The well known  business  man stopped from what he was doing and folded his reading glasses and looked up at him

" Freckles... " he thought  of her .

"I mean fresh air, I went out for some fresh air." 

"Fresh air?  What if you lost your way again? " the business man raised  his voice.  He knew something  like this would happen the moment he heard his Dad summoning him.

But he actually did lost  his way home again. But he still tried walking  home.

His nose slightly scrunched and his eyebrows met , he hated it when someone  shouts at him.  He hated when everyone scolds him just because  of  some simple effing reasons like he was some five year old kid. He sighed.

I want  a normal life.

At dinner, everyone sat and ate quietly,  only slight noises from the spoon and fork against the plate were heard in their dining room.

Kaspian cleared his throat, and suddenly spoke

"Can I go to school?..like any normal kid "
Cassandra nudged his husband and Kaspian's elder brother shifted his eyes to his parents waiting for them to answer. 

He knew they would never agree and he even almost  regretted  asking  .

"Okay. " his Dad confirmed, he paused and was mentally screaming like a teen girl fangirling over some guy in a band wearing makeup  but in a manly way .

"what?  Are you serious? " Kaspian asked again. And Cassandra was smiling...  genuinely,  not that she was fake but she actually looked like a Mom for once, in Kaspian's eyes.

CITI

"Hello , welcome to Café Tale" Citi smiles and greet for a hundredth time today,greeting anyone who walks in.  She works at a coffee shop slash book store. Her parents give her enough money but everyone was having part time jobs and she wanted to experience working.

And everyone  loved the idea of the coffee shop. Slash. Bookstore.
And Citi loved it so much since Citi was so much into reading. And speaking of books,  she suddenly thought of her Grandmama again,  She loved reading Citi bed time stories  . It's been like three weeks since she's visited her and she misses her so much.

She silently  observes everyone. Everyone was silent and sipping on their coffee,  they looked peaceful  . It started raining five minutes after Citi arrived,  and she was sincerely  grateful that it rained after she'd already arrived since she didn't  even brought herself an umbrella,  the raindrops outside were kind of muffled  because of the glass walls,  and Citi stared outside and at the rain.
It was already ten a.m and Clyde,his workmate, was running late. The door was pushed open,  and tiny bell over it went 'ting' and she instantly twitched and without even looking up to the door she started  again with the greeting
