"So what exactly do you plan to do after?" Tom asked
"After what?" I asked. We were both walking back home and stopped to on the way to get Boba, after deciding with Tony that we're doing this no matter what. So the plan will commence tonight at 12:00am at the dot. It was currently 6:00pm.
"This" he said "after this. What next?"
"Revenge" I said "and get him back"
"Huh?" Tom said as we turned right. "Okay Terra whatever your planning don't do anything stupid and rash okay?"
"I won't" I whined
"Just dont" he said "promise?"
I sighed.
"Promise" I said and reached into my pocket and took out card an old puzzle piece to which Tom had one that connected and said "I promise"
"Good"
"But what if I reeeeally have to?" I complained
"Only if you really have to okay?"
"Fine"
Our houses came up. we both were neighbours with windows that connect. I went into mine and he went into his.

I closed the door behind me. I followed voices coming from the from the kitchen.
I peeked in to see my brother and sister complaining about something or the other to my mom who was caring my baby brother with his milk on the stove.
"You know what, sweetie?" my mom told my sister Delia "how about to make it up to you I'll take you to the store and buy you your panda pencil tomorrow okay? Sound good?"
Delia sighed "okay. Fine"
"Good night" my mom kissed her forehead
"G'night" she said already halfway up the stairs
My mom turned to my brother "and Ron what do you need again?"
"Basket ball game"
"Oh right!" she realized "when was it again?"
"Tomorrow. After school"
"Okay I guess I can squeeze that in" she said "now good night honey"
My mom works too hard, She's got a lot on her plate and now with dad gone it must be ...too much. She's not a spy though. Me and dad are the only ones. But mom knows. Mom's know everything.
"Hey mom!" I went inside
"Hey honey" she replied "how was training today?"
"It was good" I lied
She walked over to the mail on the table and opened one and said "so how are you holding up?...I mean with dad"
"Uh fine"
"Really?" she eyed her letter "so did you have any missions this week?"
"Um no."
"So care to explain this?" she showed me the letter she was holding and i saw the cover which said ISO. oh no!
"I uhhh..."
"You know you've been acting really weird lately and now you got detention for acusing someone and almost exposing the ISO?"
"I have a completely good explanation"
"I'd love to hear it"
"Dad's here!" I blurted out "I know he is"
"We've been over this" she said "go to your room."
"But I.."
"Go to your room Terra!"

BANG!
I slammed the door behind me and dropped my bag and Boba cup on my desk and went to the window and opened it and shook the string connected from my window to the window of the opposite house which we used as a zipline for messages. Which also had a bell on either side to call each other.
Seconds later Tom showed up on the other side and crawled into my room. And I shut the door behind him and we both walked towards my closet
"So I'm about to show you something crazy" I said 'don't freak out"
"You? Crazy?" he said sarcastically "impossible"
I slightly giggled and he grinned
I moved my closet out of the way and the wall behind it was filled with red strings connecting various papers, clues and in the middle of it all was a picture of me and my dad.
