"Shiny leather"

Fran's p.o.v.

It was Sal Fisher. I never heard such a bitter scream from someone usually calm.  It was startling.

-How could you say that to a little girl???? Sal said

-Who f*cking cares about a little girl?

 -YOU PIECE OF SHI- 

-STOOOOOOP!!!

As I turned over, Adelaida's face was glowing red, drenched in tears.

-I... I didn't ask for this... please stop.

-Ade...

I notice that this event provoked her kamalas. It's grabbing on to her like it's trying to get her attention. I soon realized that it's enjoying the moment. So I needed to act fast before Adelaida breaks.

-Adelaida! We need to go! NOW!

-Huh? 

I grabbed her wrist and started walking where I wanted to go in the first place. My parents grave.

-Hurry!

-Uhh, Okay!

-Tsk, insufferable b*tch. Derrick said quietly.

I ignored what he said and continued on my way. I looked at Adelaida and she was still crying. When we arrived at the graveyard, I noticed the pinecones. They were talking about something, I was curious so I approached them. It was Sebastian and Fabio. 

-Why hello giant! Look at you, bigger than ever! said Sebastian.

I didn't reply but I smiled back.

-So? What brings you here? asked Sebastian.

-Oh...  Just visiting, I replied.

-I see... and who's the smaller giant?

-She's a friend. Don't worry, I doubt she'll see you. How's the ritual going?

-It went much better with shiny leather! I'll have to thank you for that! 

-Glad I could help.

-But we need more, to do more rituals. Mind if you could give us some?

-Hmm... I'll see what I can do.

-Thank you!

But last time, I gave him the leather from Dr. Deern's car seat. I wonder where I could find something like it.

I started looking outside of the yard. There are cars all around but, I couldn't take the leather from there. I kept looking but, no luck. 

I saw familiar silhouettes from afar. It was Sal Fisher and his friends. 

-Well looky here! Johnson shouted. Didn't expect Miss "Perfect" to be here... at all.

What should I do? They're going to think I'm crazy. 

As I panicked internally, I remained calm and explained them that I was visiting my parents. Still in panic, I knew that the leather could wait. 

-Oh... I'm sorry to hear that... said Campbell with empathy.

-No, no. Everything's fine. 

I looked over to Fisher and Johnson and they seem rather heartless about my situation, almost as if they knew. 

-And Larry was about to crash into your parents grave... Campbell muffled with salt.

-Hey! I didn't knew that her parents was in the graveyard!

-It's still f*cked up even if it wasn't her parents grave, to be honest. Fisher replied. 

-Aw, cut me some slack!

-Anyway, you can pay your respects just by visiting so I appreciate it. 

I led them to my parents grave and they paid their respects. Though, they didn't leave.

-Can we stay here? It'd be nice to get to know you. And you don't have much friends, do you? Fisher asked. I mean, we can leave if we're bothering you...

I did like the company they gave and they made the atmosphere a lot more welcoming. I still needed them to go so I could continue finding the leather. 

It'd be easier if they could help me but, they'll ask for a reason. If I tell them, they'll think I'm insane, which is also true.

I hesitated.

-So? Can we? I promise I won't crash into the graveyard like I wanted to. Johnson suggests.

Will they believe me? I can't return to Sebastian with nothing.

-We'll do anything to stay! It's a quiet place to hang out and anyone barely comes here anymore with you as an exception!  

-Larry we're not going to do this. Campbell interrupts 

-Well... I do have a favor... Do you have any leather on you?

-Leather? ...what? Why? Fisher asked.

-Never mind... 

-Ooh! I have leather on me! Johnson said with determination that he's going to stay, Here!

It was a shiny leather like my pinecone friend asked.

-You keep leather on you? the girl asked with disgust.

-Nah, I just forgot that it was in my pocket.

-Thank you. This is perfect. You can stay if you want.

-YES!!!

I took the leather to Sebastian and he thanked me once more. As I was going back to my parents grave, the masked boy was in front of me. 

Authors note:

Dear readers, 

Sorry for the late chapter! I was busy with other stuff and I kinda forgot about this fanfic. Since the 4th episode of Sally Face came out, I'm still brainstorming on how the story should end. You gotta agree with me that episode 4 had brokoro your kokoro. Anyway, thank you for being patient with me and I hope you will continue and enjoy reading!  

P.S. This fanfic has recently reached 1k+ views and I freaked out. Thank you.
