"If it feels broken in any way you need to end it
before it ends you"
Lace and Jonah walk to the art room together. The rest of the entente form a circle around them, protecting the small girl from any unwanted visitors. Since Bee's death which was covered up by Val the group wanted to avenge her death but didn't know how. All of Jonah's classes were shifted to Lace's class. The news didn't get released and Lace was mad, no furious was a better word.
"You okay love?" Jonah asks, rubbing Lace's shoulder. Lace responds with a shake of the head. Lace steps into the room and sighs, she misses Bee. She walks over to the sketchbooks and pulls hers out, walking over to the bin choosing her specific medium. She sits down just as Jonah approaches her.
" I have to go okay? The entente has a meeting. Ame will watch over you." Jonah kisses her forehead and puts the cassette on the table. Lace sighs, putting the cassette on her ears and picking up her pencil.
"You're like a fairy princess! Like that dragon queen from Game of Thrones." Bee gushes. Bee was always amazed by Lace's ability to be a leader-"
"Lace. Lace. Are you good? You just stared at your sketch and stopped blinking." Ame worries. Ever since Bee died Lace became numb. This is usual but paired with Lace spacing out every two hours it was worrying Ame.
"I'm okay" Lace nods and starts to finish the rough sketch but is interrupted when her phone buzzes.
From:Maman
Val and his family will be coming over today as it's Max's birthday. You okay with that?
Lace sighs heavily but in order to get revenge or stall Val from knowing she would have to be okay with that.
To:Maman
Yes,why wouldn't I be okay with that?
From: Maman
You seem to not like Val, even more so after last week.
To: Maman
I do like him. He's just a bit difficult sometimes
From: Maman
Okay great, I'll tell them
Lace puts down the phone and puts her head in her arms and cries, for the second time today.
