The Undercover Agents Of Right-Side

Chapter 3

"Mom!" Addison cried.

"What happened Ad?" asked Cassandra.

"M-mom. What happened to Miss Potts?"

"Miss Potts? Is that the Maths teacher?" Cassandra spoke, but her voice shook.                                                                                                                                                                            

"Y-Yeah, I heard that she died. Right after I told you that I got scolded from her!" Addison spoke. Fear in her voice and sweat trickling from her face. Cassandra paused for a minute, confused. Then realization dawned upon her.

"Ad, my dear! I realize now what you are thinking. It's not like that!" Cassandra said, in her very highly dominating voice.

"You murdered her! I am the child of a murderer! My mom is a murderer!" she shouted at the top of her voice and stormed into her room.

"Addison! Open the room! Now!" Cassandra yelled.

"I won't- I won't. I shall never take orders from murderer!" Addison sobbed.

"Ad- Ad I can explain. I'll explain everything. Only if you come out. "

"I won't. I'll come out when dad comes back home."

"Dad's already here," said Austin, in a very different voice. There was something wrong with him. He said it with maturity, something that didn't suit him very well.

"Dad," Addison said in a small voice, "You were here the whole time, and you didn't come out."

"Addison, listen to your mother," Austin said. "Mothers are always right."

"But Dad! Ms. Potts. She died!" Addison shrieked.

Austin gave a 'now or never' look to Cassandra and sat on a sofa. "Come, sit, dear Addison, I'll tell you what you need to know." "Everything SHE needs to know. Not too much information. Too much knowledge can be harmful for a person, especially when that person is a kid," Cassandra said. Still calm, but scared.  "Of course," Austin said, reassuring her.

"Addison, whatever I say, it's completely confidential. You cannot tell about this to anybody," Austin said.

"Umm. Okay," Addison said in qualm.

"Your mother and I are spies, we work for the country," Austin said. Addison's expression changed from curiosity and fear to surprise and joy.

"What! My parents are spies and I didn't even know about it! Are you kidding me Dad?" Addison asked, in a rather funny way.

"Yes, and your Maths teacher, she was an enemy, from The Evil Side." Austin told her.

"So you're not bad people?" Addison asked.

"Of course not Addison, what did you expect? Did you really think that we'd murdered your teacher for no reason whatsoever? Did you actually expect us to be monsters?" Austin blurted out, with tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry Dad, I'm sorry Mom!" Addison shrieked.  "I shouldn't have said all those things, I shouldn't!" she sobbed, guilty.

"We'll forgive you this time, but you've broken our hearts!" Cassandra sobbed, unusual for her.

"Mom I am so sorry," Addison said.

"It's okay," Austin and Cassandra forgave her.

Austin was lost in deep thought. "What happened dad?" Addison asked, now with a smile on her face.

"Addison, I was wondering," Austin asked Addison, "If you wanted to be a spy."

"Are you asking me? To become a spy!" Addison said, with happiness on her face.

"Austin! Have you gone nuts? She's just a kid! She can't! I told you not to speak too much!" Cassandra yelled.

"Cassandra she's fifteen now. She understands stuff," Austin said with a grim expression.

"Yes mom, I'll do well, I promise. I won't let you down!" Addison said, jumping in the argument.

"But Addison, what about your safety, we can never risk that," Cassandra said.

"Mom please," Addison protested.

"O-okay."

"So do we start training from tomorrow?" Austin asked, smiling.

"Aye- aye captain!" Addison smiled.
