I'm sorry for the quality of this, I'm not going to reply to any review on this since it's only a one shot and yeah... enjoy?
"Galinda, I'm not sure about this" Elphaba said as the carriage made it's way to Gillikin "what if your parents see that I'm green and freak out?"
"Elphie, they already know!" Galinda said trying to reassure her friend
"Really?" Elphaba asked, confused
"Well, they know that you're unusually and extremely peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe" she clarified with a cheeky grin "plus, my parents aren't judgmental jerks like the people at school"
Elphaba gave her roommate a look of disdain "You were one of those judgmental jerks" she reminded the blonde
"Well, I'm not anymore! and that's all that counts" Galinda said, almost as if trying to reassure herself. She looked out the window and a smile spread across her face "We're here!" she beamed
...
Elphaba hopped out of the carriage and walked down the pathway to Galinda's house, why did it feel like she had been here before? Her parents were outside waiting for them, Oz why was her mum looking at her like that?
"Momsie, Popsicle; I want you to meet Elphie!" Galinda sang
"It's nice to meet you" her father said reaching his hand out for a hand shake "my name's Highmuster"
Elphaba shook his hand "It's nice to meet you" she said with a nervous smile, she looked over to Galinda's mum, why was she still looking at her like that? was her green skin really that repulsive?
"Oh, I'm very sorry Elphaba" she said "It's just you have a strong resemblance to somebody I went to school with" she gave her a warm smile "she looked stunning in emerald too!... Oh, I'm Larena by the way"
Elphaba gave another smile "it's nice to meet you" she repeated
...
Elphaba sat down to dinner with the Uplands later that night "Elphaba, tell me, have you ever heard of a woman named Melena Skarr?" Larena asked
"No, I haven't" Elphaba said politely "although my mother was named Melena"
"Was?" Larena asked, intrigued
"Well, my mother actually passed away giving birth to my younger sister Nessa"
"Oh, I had a friend at college named Nessa" Larena said "she got a little strange when she started to like one of the popular boys though, I don't know why she liked him, he was a jerk!" she took a sip of her drink and then continued "Oh, and then Melena is about to run away with the man of her dreams right? then she chooses to stay behind because she said she loved this other guy, the jerk, I have this theory that he just slipped her some love potion somehow" Larena noticed Elphaba's look of discomfort "Oh Oz, I'm sorry for blurting out my life story, it's just you look so much like her"
"It's alright" Elphaba said with a smile, suddenly having an idea "did the jerks name happen to be Frexspar Thropp?" she asked
"Yes that's it!" Larena nearly shouted
"He's my father" Elphaba chuckled "the one I came here to avoid"
"Strange" Larena said narrowing her eyes and tilting her had a little "you don't look at all like Frexspar"
...
"It's the only reasonable explanation!"
"How is it in anyway reasonable?"
Larena pointed to the pictures in the yearbook "just look at them Highmuster, then tell me she doesn't look like a perfect mix of the two!"
"He left long before she would of been born, and he came back long after" he reminded her
"I bet you ten bucks she's his" she said with a smile
Highmuster chuckled "you're on!"
