Why? : Chapter 3

In the morning...

At 5 a.m, Siddeley's alarm rang. He groaned slightly at this, because his day off is over, so he has to go to work.

Siddeley rolled off the bed and prepare some breakfast. Then he remembered about Snowy that still sleeping on the mattress. He was hesitate whether to bring Snowy with him to work or to let her stay here alone in the hanger.

So Siddeley decided to bring Snowy with him, because he could quarantee Snowy's safety at the HQ. He woke Snowy up and in return, Snowy grumbled a little, Siddeley chuckled at this.

"Come on Snowy, wake up. We need to go to the HQ at 5.30" Siddeley said.

"What for...?" Snowy asled sleepily.

"I need to take you there, so you will be safe. I need to go to work" Siddeley said.

"Can I come with you?" Snowy asked. Siddeley found it to be cute, but he need to be stern with this, so he said...

"Not a chance Snowy, my line of work is very dangerous. You could get hurt" Siddeley said.

"But why do I have to go to the HQ? Can I just stay here?" Snowy said, pleading.

"It's not safe for a 7 years old to be alone, Snowy. Besides, Doctor Wilson could take care of you while I'm gone" Siddeley said, trying to get Snowy to change her mind.

"I can take care of myself..." Snowy said, in a whisper, but Siddeley heard her clearly.

"You still have to go with me" Siddeley said, and when Snowy open her mouth to argue, but Siddeley beat it by saying...

"And no arguing" Siddeley said firmly, to say that he was serious and it was final.

"Okay..." Snowy said defeat.

"Here's your breakfast" Siddeley said, giving Snowy a medium can of oil. Snowy was shocked when seeing the can.

"I have to drink all of it?" Snowy asked, a little freak out.

"Yep" Siddeley said simply.

"But it's too many! I can't drink all of it!" Snowy said, freaking out.

"But it's a perfect amount for a 7 years old" Siddeley said, surprised when he saw Snowy freaking out.

"For a vehicle maybe, but not for a human!" Snowy said. Her fearness was clearly seen by Siddeley.

"You already so thin, Snowy. You need to start to eat the perfect amount of food for your age" Siddeley said.

"Melly never told me I have to..." Snowy said, whispering to herself, but Siddeley heard it and then asked...

"Who is Melly, Snowy?" Siddeley asked. Snowy seems to consider if she should tell him the truth or the lies. But she choose to tell the truth, because she knows that Siddeley will know whether she tell the truth or not. Besides that, he's a spy, he was trained to know that. Thet conclusion, it's impossible to lie to Siddeley.

"My caretaker..." Snowy said muttering, but Siddeley still could hear it.

"Caretaker?" Siddeley asked incredulously. Snowy stay silent of it. She didn't want to spill out all the truth.

"I know there's more of it, Snowy" Siddeley said sternly. Snowy flinched. It is, very impossible to lie to Siddeley.

"My caretaker at the orphanage..." Snowy said.

"Orphanage?" Siddeley asked in a concern tone.

"Yeah..." Snowy said shortly. In an instant, the presence in the room become solemn. But Siddeley want to cross his luck, and ask...

"What happened to them?" Siddeley asked softly.

"... My father gone mysteriously, my mother said that he had an accident when he was working as a pilot. But I know mom lied to me, because there's no clue and my father wasn't working that day, it was his day off" Snowy said, a little sad and mad.

"And your mother?" Siddeley asked gently.

"... She died when I was 5 in a car accident, a few weeks after my father was gone. She tried to save a boy who was standing in the middle of the road to end his life. But instead, my mom dead and he lives. My mom shouldn't have save him... She will live if she don't..." Snowy said. Her tone of voice clearly saying that she was still angry with the boy, whose the cause of her mother's death.

Siddeley understand that she's still angry with the boy. But at least the boy lives right? He need to change that way of thinking of hers, so he said...

"Don't say that Snowy. At least the boy is alive, so your mother's sacrifice wasn't waste to nothing" Siddeley said, scolding her a little at first. But Snowy just turn angrier.

"Who said that my mother's sacrifice means anything? It means nothing at all!" Snowy said furiously.

"Watch your attitude young lady. Of course it means something! The boy lives" Siddeley said scolding.

"Who said that the boy lives?!" Snowy answered even more furiously. Now Siddeley was beyond confuse.

"What...do you mean?" Siddeley asked in confusion. Snowy was silent, but decided to answer...

"A week after my mother save the boy..., the boy continued his suicide by jumping from the high building..." Snowy said solemnly.

"But then that means...he..." Siddeley said trailing off.

"He died. And my mother's sacrifice becomes nothing...at all" Snowy said, and a tear rolled to her cheek without she's noticing. Siddeley nuzzled her comfortly and said...

"I'm...sorry Snowy. I'm sorry" Siddeley said while nuzzling her to comforts her. Snowy cried freely on Siddeley's nose, but he didn't mind at all. He let her cry until it turns into sniffles.

"Do you want some breakfast?" Siddeley gently asked. Snowy just nodded and Siddeley gave her a can of oil.

After that, he told Snowy to get in to him and they ready to go. But because of earlier arguments, when they reached the HQ, it's already 6 a.m. Siddeley"s superior asked him, why is he late. Siddeley told the superior, shortly about Snowy and he understands immediately.

Then Siddeley drop Snowy at Doctor Wilson's place and went to work on his mission. Doctor Wilson then look at Snowy and he can clearly see her puffy red eyes slightly, so he asked...

"Why did you cry?" Doctor Wilson asked. Snowy was surprised, but she immediately get used to it, because of her temporarily guardian, usually do that because he's a spy. Doctor Wilson is part spy too, so it wasn't a surprise that he could guessed that.

"Nothing..." Snowy said immediately. Clearly forgot that she couldn't lie to a spy.

"Snowy... Don't lie to me" Doctor Wilson said, a little sternly.

Snowy didn't complie with it right away. Doctor Wilson stay quiet too, but he didn't move. So Snowy knew that Doctor Wilson won't let it go any sooner. Both of them stay quiet for almost an hour. None of them move or dare to move. Both want to see, who will be the one to give up first in this game.

But Doctor Wilson is force to give up when someone called his name...

"Good morning, Doctor Wilson" a bluish greyish Aston Martin car said. Doctor Wilson only sighed a little and then said...

"Good morning, Finn" Doctor Wilson said, a little disappointed that he lose the unofficial game with Snowy. Snowy smirk slightly at this.

"What's wrong, Doctor? A bad morning?" Finn smirk slightly.

"I lose this unofficial game because of your morning greetings" Doctor Wilson said, hissed a little.

"Oh?" Finn said, finally noticing Snowy standing there.

"Hey there, little one" Finn greeted Snowy. That makes Snowy confused though, because Finn look so calm.

"Hello..." Snowy said a little unsure. Finn noticed it though and asked...

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you" Finn said smiling. Snowy just stare slightly and asked...

"Why you didn't surprise when you see a human?" Snowy asked.

"Well we know humans are from our history. So, why do we need to be surprised?" Finn asked back.

"I...don't know either..." Snowy said, confuse herself. Finn and Doctor Wilson just smiled.

"No need to think too much, child. Why don't you accompany me, playing some board game?" Finn said.

"You don't have any mission, Finn?" Doctor Wilson asked.

"Of course not. It's my day off" Finn answered, smirking.

"And you still come to the HQ" Doctor Wilson said, a little annoyed.

"I just want to make an appointment with you, Doctor. Then I'll be on my way to some board game" Finn said in his British accent.

"Alright... Wait. Where will you play it?" Doctor Wilson asked confuse.

"In my office room of course" Finn said, matter of factly. Doctor Wilson just sighed and said...

"Fine. Let's arrange that appointment, shall we?" Doctor Wilson said. Then he and Finn arranged the appointment, while Snowy stand patiently for Finn to finished. She loves playing board games, even though she didn't admit it out loud.

"Done. Let's go then" Finn said to Snowy. Snowy nodded.

"Return her here before 3 p.m. Siddeley must've been back by then" Doctor Wilson said to Finn. Finn nodded and said thank you and then drove away to his office room with Snowy following behind.

On the way, Finn start a conversation with her, while driving beside her...

"So Siddeley is your guardian?" Finn asked. Snowy was unsure, but answer him...

"I guess... Well, sort of... He's been looking after me for 2 days now" Snowy said. Finn nodded.

After about a minute, Finn and Snowy finally reached Finn's office room. There Finn pulled out some of the board games that Snowy knows.

"You know how to play I guess?" Finn guessed.

"I'm not gonna even ask how do you knkw that" Snowy said a little sarcasticly.

"You are a little rebellious, aren't you?" Finn said. Snowy shrugged and said...

"When you live in an orphanage, you have to be like that if you wanted to survive.." Snowy said. Finn just nodded.

Then they both played the board game...

Around 3 p.m...

As Doctor Wilson predicted, Siddeley already done his mission and arrived at the HQ right around 3 p.m.

Siddeley report his mission to his boss, then he quickly went to Doctor Wilson's office room, but surprisingly he didn't find Snowy, but rather only Doctor Wilson himself.

"Doctor! Where's Snowy?!" Siddeley asked, panickly. Doctor Wilson look at him in a very calm face, which confused Siddeley so much, and then said...

"Calm down Sid. She's fine and with Finn, playing some board games" Doctor Wilson calmly said.

"Finn? Board games?" Siddeley asked, confusely. Doctor Wilson look at him calmly and didn't say anything. He just drove out from his office with Siddeley following behind.

When they finally reached Finn's office room, they can hear laughter from inside it.

"Ha, I win again!" Snowy exclaimed. Siddeley and Doctor Wilson peeked through the door a little. There they can see Snowy and Finn are playing some board game. And it seems like Snowy is winning.

"It can't be! How do you do that?!" Finn asked in disbelief.

"When you grow up in an orphanage for 2 years, you'll pick up a trick or two" Snowy said smirking. While Finn just huffed. Doctor Wilson and Siddeley chuckled quietly at this, but heard by Finn.

"Oh, don't laugh you two. I bet you two can't beat her either" Finn said, annoyed. Doctor Wilson and Siddeley rolled in to the room. There, they can see that the whole room was full of board games scattered everywhere.

"What's all this, Finn? I never see your office room look so..." Doctor Wilson said, trailing off to find the right word, but Siddeley is the one who finish the sentence.

"Messy..." Siddeley said.

"Well, I can't help it. I'm trying to find a board game that can make her lose" Finn said, still annoyed.

"And the result?" Doctor Wilson asked.

"I win every board games" Snowy said proudly. Siddeley chuckled lightly at this.

"Fine. Let's all play. I'm sure I can win one of the board games" Doctor Wilson said confidently.

Then they all go play the board games. After a few hours, they finally finished and have Snowy as their ultimate winner.

"I win!" Snowy said proudly.

"Okay, little winner. It's almost pass your bedtime, so we need to go home" Siddeley said to Snowy.

"Aww, can't we stay a little longer?" Snowy whined.

"Better listen to your guardian, Snowy. It is pretty late. We should all go home and have some rest" Doctor Wilson said to Snowy. Snowy want to argue, but Finn beats her to it.

"Doctor orders, Snowy. Better do it" Finn said smirking. Snowy pouted and reluctantly agree. The three vehicles chuckled.

Then Snowy went into Siddeley and they all went home. After arrived to their hanger, Siddeley then make some dinner for him and Snowy. While Snowy went to look at the TV and see some news on.

But when she sees it, she was confused with the news. It says that there was a train went missing without a single track or clue.

When Siddeley was finished and called her to eat her dinner, which was oil, she asked Siddeley...

"Siddeley..., how come a train can go missing?" Snowy asked innocently and straight to the point. While Siddeley looked shocked.

"Where did you hear that?" Siddeley asked.

"On the TV. It looks pretty serious" Snowy said, while drinking her oil. Siddeley then quickly turn on the TV.

But what confused Snowy, is that Siddeley watched it in a knowing look, rather than a confused one. So she said...

"You know something, don't you?" Snowy said to Siddeley. While Siddeley looked at Snowy shocked.

"Sort of..."Siddeley admitted a little. Snowy, after finishing her oil, went to the mattress and then said...

"I don't like it..." Snowy said. While Siddeley look confused.

"Don't like what?" Siddeley asked. He has his hunch and guessing, but he wants to hear it from Snowy herself.

"That missing train... It went missing just like when my father went missing too... With no clues at all. I hate it... I don't...like it..." Snowy said and then fell asleep. Leaving a very shocked and sad Siddeley.

'Does that mean she hates her father?' Siddeley thought deeply...
