A/N
This is the sequel to Friend or Foe. You do not have to read Friend or Foe to get what is going on in this story. This story just takes place the summer after they meet Lily (My OC who is a cat) I would recommend skimming my other story, just so a few points might be made more clear but the story is not focused around my OC, she is just in the story.
This chapter also takes place before the sneak peak if you could not already guess.
Anyways, enjoy the story!
Ferb's POV
"You do not care enough about your children Lawrence!"
"You care more about your stupid antiques then the kids, Linda!"
I looked into the house from where I sat outside with my younger step brother Phineas. I gave a sad half frown. That is the 3rd argument today, the 10th one this week and... I have no idea how many this month! How many will they have before it will end? I shrugged. They love each other; they would never let arguments change that.
"It sounds like a bad one Ferb." I glanced over at Phineas as we sat there. His brother's gaze with shadowed with worry. He hated it when our parents started fighting. I could not blame him. It was sort of scary to think about one of them hitting the other if it got to out of hand, or worse.
"Well, I am sure everything will be fine. I mean they have been together since we were 3 and they only started arguing heavily like a few months ago right?" Phineas asked. It almost seemed he was convincing himself as much as he was trying to convince me.
I nodded my agreement. I had other ideas in mind but I decide not to voice them out loud.
"Let's go visit Isabella!" Phineas said leaping to his feet. I rolled my eyes. Maybe today is the day they finally say,' I love you.' Ferb thought in slight amusement. It had been almost a year since the two of them began to discover their feelings for each other and neither has made a move. They really need to get moving in the right direction I thought.
"Alright." I said getting to my feet as well. Since the beginning of the school year this year, I had begun talking more. I just noticed that I was needed to talk more. I was never shy. I just never saw a reason to speak.
The two of us walked out of the backyard and onto the sidewalk. Both of us looked for cars as we got ready to cross the street.
My gaze flicked over to a familiar grey shape, simply grooming herself. It was Lily, the cat Phineas and I called a pet last year then turned on us.
Last summer, Phineas and I found this cat in our trashcan. We built a communicator for her to speak so we could learn where she truly lived. It turned out, as far as we knew at the time, she had no owner or family. Taking pity on her, we let Lily stay with us. Little did we know, she working for some crazed doctor that wanted to capture Phineas and I. She was nothing more than a double crossing spy. When we got to the crazed doctor's HQ, because he captured us, we learned more about Lily for real, including her twisted up past and we also learned our sister was fighting this doctor, or used to. She says it was a onetime thing and that she did not want to get involved again. Luckily there had been no other sign of the evil doctor.
Lily looked up at me and Phineas and smiled. She meowed something that I could not catch but I did not care. I turned away from Lily, no matter what Lily did to help us escape; it was still her fault in the first place we got into that mess. I will never forgive her. I thought.
Finally we made it over to Isabella's house. I glanced back once to see that Lily was gone. Good. Then I turned back to the door right as it was opening to greet my friend at the door.
"Hey Phineas and Ferb! Whatcha doing?" Isabella greeted
Linda's POV
"If you really feel that way Lawrence then get out of my house!" I screamed at my husband. My eyes glittered with rage.
Lawrence was feeling similar emotions. "Fine." He spat at me. "If you hate me, I won't stay where I am not wanted. Good bye Linda!" With that Lawrence stormed upstairs got some stuff and left. I had no idea what I did until I heard the roaring of a car driving away. Right then, I broke down, crying tears of rage and sorrow.
A/N
Okay, this is the shortest chapter I have ever written. Not even 900 words! I feel badly now. Don't worry! The next chapter will be longer! Promise!
