Chapter 2
To Grandma's House
"Your mother was a servant to my mother?!" Coco asked incredulously.
"Not exactly, mate, she was her mother's servant and your mother's wet nurse when she was a child and advisor and friend when she got older." said Danni.
"What was your mother's mistress's name?" asked Coco.
"Gracie." said Danni.
"Gracie, you mean the Gracie, as in the leader of the URM?" said Coco.
"Yeah." said Danni who looked sadder than ever.
"Is she still living?" she asked.
"Yes, I believe so, she lives deep in the forest, the part that barely gets sunlight."
"Could you take me?" asked Coco.
"I couldn't see why not?" says Danni and gets up to leave. Coco follows her to the door and then stops.
"Could I use your phone?" she asks.
"Sure," says Danni, "I'll wait for you."
"Ok." She answers. Coco walks over to the phone picks up the receiver and dials her home number.
"Hello?" says a voice on the other line.
"Hi Tawanna, put Crash on the phone." Coco says flatly.
"Now that's not the way to talk to your future sister-in-law, is it?" asks Tawanna in a sugar sweet voice.
"You wish." says Coco in a blunt voice.
"You know sooner or later he'll propose." Tawanna snaps.
"I wonder if your mother was a back stabbing slut, too." snaps Coco.
"At least I wasn't such a disappointment that momma abandoned me!" Tawanna says heatedly.
"My mother didn't abandon us, she was killed in the line of duty!" said Coco fiercely as she fought back tears. "Just put Crash on the line!" There was some clicking and then Crash said,
"Hello, Coco!"
"Hi, Crash. Glad you're in a good mood."
"You're not?"
"I was until your so called "girlfriend" answered the phone."
"Oh."
"I'm going walking with Danni and I won't be back before sunset but I will be home by the time the moon's up."
"Okay, I'll leave the door open."
"Where are you going?"
"Date with Tawanna."
"Oh."
"Bye, Coco."
"Bye, Crash." After that there was no sound. "Oh, that Tawanna! She's always hoggin' Crash! I got feeling that girl is trouble for him but he won't believe me."
"You ok, mate?" asked Danni
"Yeah, let's go, come on Pura." said Coco. The young tiger cub followed her master looking at her curiously. The trio walked for what seemed like an eternity deeper and deeper into the forest. By the time the sun was beginning to set, it was so dark that Coco had to hold onto Pura's flank to keep from falling or running into something. Finally, they came to a small cottage covered in vines with one dusty window. They walked cautious unto the porch and Danni rapped on the old door that Coco thought would fall under the weight of Danni's banging. Then a small raspy voice from within said,
"Who is it?"
"Grandma Grace, it's Danni!" Danni said through the door.
"Oh, come on in, dearie, the door's open."
