Chapter 19 - Bad Karma

-|I swear I love watching the little thing in the middle move to the bass of the songs 😭 I know it's not just me|-

::Andromeda's POV::

There's no way I could face Ski right now, so I walked away, leaving him with Jahseh and Anah. Although Jahseh was right, it did seem like Anah had been body snatched. She was actually being nice.

I went to the cafe and wasted some time there, eating fruit and minding my business, when the door opened and a young looking girl with pale freckled skin and curly red hair walked in after holding the door open for another girl with light brown skin and long braids. The red haired girl reminded me of the girl from the movie 'Brave'. The brown skinned girl held a long, rectangular box in her hands.

I turned my attention back to my food after I got a good look at them, but they stood there quietly, watching me. I started getting uncomfortable after they didn't say anything. After I looked up, they forced themselves to speak.

"Hi," the brown skinned girl started awkwardly. "I'm Tori--"

"And I'm Emma Z." The red head blurted out.

"We heard about what happened with Anah and Olivia... Sorry." Tori continued. "Do you wanna cupcake?" Emma Z helped Jai open the box and presented cupcakes with a few donuts in the mix. I leaned toward the box, ready to get up but I stopped before I was unseated.

"I'm Andromeda." I said with a forced smile. It's hard to be friendly when you have something on your mind.

"I'm Emma Z..." Emma Z trailed off after Tori gave her a "dude you already said that" look. This time I smiled genuinely.

"Hi Emma Z, hi Tori."

Tori nodded a hello and pointed to the box.

"Cupcake?"

"...Why not." I agreed and they brought the box over to me and set it down. I choose a chocolate one with white icing and said thank you. They stood there awkwardly, like they wanted to say something, but were too afraid. "Have a seat." I motioned them to sit instead of standing there, staring at me like mannequins. They moved stiffly and sat across from me. I stealthily made my way into the shallowest parts their minds and found curiosity. They had questions on questions on questions, beginning with the most obvious--

"Are you a Netherrack?" Emma Z blurted again. Tori shot her another "dude!" look and Emma Z immediately drew back into herself, regretting asking so straight forwardly. I knew she didn't mean any harm by it, it was cute how curious and innocent she was.

"I am." I said calmly and she gasped. She reminded me a lot of Cat Valentine from Victorious.

"That means you have powers!"

"Ehhh, abilities..."

"Oh my God, can you punch through walls?"

"I don't know--"

"Can you teleport?"

"Uh--"

"Do you have laser vision?" Emma Z said standing up.

"I don't think--"

"Can you karate chop through a plank of wood?" She ignored me while acting out a karate chop with her own hands. I didn't bother answering because I knew she was gonna ask more questions. "Can you run at like 60 miles an hour? Can you read minds? Can you change the weather? Do you have that piercing banshee scream? Can you predict the future? Can you make--"

"EMMA!" Tori stopped her. Emma Z noticed how carried away she'd gotten and reseated herself.

"Sorry." She said looking at her hands. I laughed.
