Captain Canary: (Book 4)

Chapter 3: Sisterly Bonding

Three days had passed since Lisa had seen her dad at the jewelry store.  Appearing to be back to his old ways on going on heists.  Which left Lisa confused.  For she knew that her parents no longer did that anymore.  At least she didn't think they did.  She had loads of questions.  How long had her dad been back in his old business?  Did her mother know and have been covering up for him?  But she couldn't ask them.  However, she did know the next best person to ask, and that was his partner in crime Mick Rory.  The only problem was, Lisa had to find a way to get to him without the others knowing so she could ask him privately.  He was also still on the mission with the other legends.  So she wasn't going to be able to find them on her own without raising suspicions.  Lisa would have to wait until they were able to make their way back to the city.

Lisa was once again in her room playing quietly with her dolls.  Since what she saw at the park, she had been keeping a distance from the others.  She wasn't even sure if her sister Abby knew, or if she was in on the heist as well.  Perhaps they were all lying to her.  Abby could be just like their parents sometimes.  Stubborn and a bit on the troublesome side.  As she heard a knock at the door, Lisa turned her head slightly but stayed sitting where she was on the bedroom floor, playing with her favorite doll as usual.  "Come in!"  She called.  As the door opened, she saw her sister Abby standing on the other side.  Abby gave her sister a small smile.  She had been starting to worry bout her sister as well.  She knew she was a bit more on the shy side, but something was going on.  She was concerned about what that was.  Lisa may be shy, and stuck to herself most of the time.  But at least she usually would hang around her.  The two of them were quite close, closer than what most sister pairings usually were.

"You aren't too busy are you?"  Abby grinned, keeping her eyes on her sister.  Lisa looked at Abby giving a small shrug.  "Not really.  I was just playing with my dolls."  Abby walked over closer to Lisa, sitting down across from her on the floor.  "I thought that the two of us could do something since it's been a bit that we got to hang out?  It would be just the two of us.  Dad is out working and mom is just..  Around the house.  Since I had been hanging out with my friends lately, I miss spending time with you."  Abby began to ramble a little.  Lisa stayed quiet looking hesitant a moment.  Watching Abby closely when she mentioned that their dad was at work.  Work?  Does she know that he's been up to his old tricks and going on heists?  She thought.  Lisa nodded, giving her sister a smile.  "I would like that."  She set her doll down on the floor.  The two of the girls stood up and started making their way out of Lisa's room.  "What were we going to do?"  She asked.  Abby glanced at her sister as the two of them exited out of the room together.

Abby tilted her head a bit trying to think.  "Hmm, we could watch a movie?  We could watch your favorite if you'd like."  She grimed.  Lisa looked at her sister.  She was starting to second guess herself now again.  When she said that her dad was at work, it made Lisa think, assume, that Abby and Sara were apart of the cover up of Leonard being up to his old tricks again.  Or a cover up of the fact that they were all in it together and were using Abby to distract Lisa.  Lisa bit her lip not realizing it as she was coming up with these thoughts and scenarios.

She jumped when she felt her sister's hand place on top of her shoulder.  Glancing up at Abby she could see some worry on her face.  "Hey, what's wrong?"  Lisa was so lost in thought she hadn't realized that she stopped walking.  Lisa shook her head.  "Nothing."  Abby pulled her hand away from her sister's shoulder still not looking very convinced.  "Lisa, you can tell me.  I am your big sister after all."  Lisa hesitated some more not sure if she could trust her sister.  Especially if she was part of the operation.  But if she decided to ask, maybe it'd be able to help her figure out if Abby really knew what was going on or not.  If her assumptions were correct or not.
