Rosa : Harley Quinn's Daughter

6.

I arrive home exhausted, Calixtus drove me as we escape that disaster, I took off my shoes and turn the lights on the living room when I straighten up I saw a women's figure and I immediately knew who it was.

"Mind explaining?"

It was Cain, she was piercing on me and it was scary I can read her whole feeling, the crossed arms with the tighten face gestures, I know she's about to explode.

"Aya.... I-"

"You went out!"

"I'm sorry okay I just couldn't ditch that dinner."

I explained clearly and calmly, she also just acts calm but she can't hide from me I can read her like a book.

"Dinner? Does dinner include getting your dress rip off and you looking like trash? What happend?"

I look at her and look down hesitant of what I should answer.

"We were attacked."

"Exactly what I mean, someone already know"

"Pardon?"

Cassandra's voice went from high to whisper, I can't clearly manage to compensate the phrase she said.

"Prepare your things we are living."

"Like right now?"

"Yes now"

She walk upstairs maybe fixing her things and I just walk near the couch my heels still in my grip as I sat down exhausted, I rub my forehead remembering the last moment I had with Calixtus, when we were escaping.

TB

We were walking down the streets when we finally outrun those who were after us. Calixtus decided to drive me home as his car was just park near to where we are right now.

"I'm sorry"
I said as we both entered the car.

"You don't have to."
He smiled at me as he started the engine and started driving.

"That was very much a disaster for a first date."

"It was actually fun and scary at the same time."
We both chuckled remembering the tragedy earlier.

"But I wish it turned out the other way."

I said looking at the streets feeling guilty because I know for a fact that those guys are after me.

"Then maybe the universe just gave us a do over to try it again."

I look at him in shock.

"You still wanna go out with me? After what happend tonight?"

"Why not? I mean we could just have dinner at your house or mine to avoid this circumstances."

I tried to pull myself together and try not to smile or let him see that I was blushing, I was so afraid that he would hate me for putting his life in danger and now he want a second date.

"How about tommorow?"

"Same time"

I nod before unbuckling my seatbelt for we just have arrived home.

"Bye"

"Bye"

He quickly stole a smack as I was looking at him very shock but manage to got out of the car without looking like a fool.

End of TB

Ohhmy ghad I have to see him tommorow, and If I don't he would think that I ditch him because I didn't like how things have turned up ugghh I need to think of a reason to convince Cassandra to stay for atleast tommorow.

"Why are you not packing?"

Cassandra cut my train of thought, she was standing near the stairs as she have put her things on the floor.

"Uhmm uhhh... I.... you know... uhmmm I can't."

"Uhhh....uhhhh....uhhh girl your stuttering spit it."

She teased and I breath heavily as Istand up and walked near her.

"I have to pass my thesis tommorow."

"You can pass it online."

She picked her bags and walk across me to go outside.

"I can't. It's required to.... to be present, yeah that."

Cassandra neated her eyebrows then look deeply into my eyes, and off course as a psychology major I have use the power of manipulation using facial expression, If I wont look weak,scared and unhonest she would not suspect a thing.

"May I know the location of your thesis work?"

Cassandra calmly ask while piercing her eyes on me, she was holding the door handle ready tp go out but stop and look at me straight in the face, I grew curios thinking this could be a trap.

"Why? What do you need it for?"

We look at each other and there was a few moment of silence but then she suddenly put her bag down, sigh heavily and put both her hands on her hips.

"Jules!?"

Cain shouted, then a woman who was wearing a black pants, black shirt and leather jacket and about 5'5 tall entered the room, she came from the second floor and she was also holding bags.

"Gretel?"

Cain slowly whispered, Gretel appeared behind my back.

"Sorry,Rosa."

She whispered and walk behind Cain, whose left hand raising up just like waiting for something to be handed to her, the a flashdrive was given to her by Gretel that drove me into shock, I was about to grab it but Cain avoided that to happen.

"I'm a detective Rosa, the best of the best, don't expect me to be so stupid."

I was so speechless I look at Greta in confusion or anger just an expression I cannot describe, she then disappear as Cain was opening the door of her house.

"Hurry up sweet child, we are going to Gotham."
