Wow. What a way to give a cliff hanger T T
I've been waiting to learn whats in that damn locket for so long!
I see… so you remember that locket? Am so glad~! Hehe… read on to know what's inside.
Anata no rebyū, min'na no tame ni arigatōgozaimashita! Anata wa watashi wa totemo ureshikatta!
it's already dark outside the house where Allen, Link, and Cross were spending their sweet time in hiding. Surprisingly, it sounds peaceful around no ruckus outside and this made Link restless thinking that this is a bad sign of sudden turn of events. He thought of the worst possible scenario, that maybe after the calm there would be a disaster next.
He only spent at least more or less an hour to bought the said general his drink. He placed the bottle of an expensive wine on top of the table in the dining room and went to check his baby sitting named Allen Walker. He knocked but no answer. He tilted the knob but was locked. He wanted to ask the kid if he wants to eat something seeing that Allen is a glutton and it worries him and his master to see him eating less after he woke up from his coma. He sighed. Maybe his asleep tired of enduring his massive headache.
Yes, since that fateful day, Allen suffered so much pain thrusting in his head. For the whole month his unconscious, Link always went to his room to check his status. Sometimes Allen screamed by midnight clutching his head and biting his lip until it bleeds. After two or five days Allen will scream again by midnight or by daylight. He wondered what was he dreaming the whole time he's asleep.
He sighed.
By this time, Link just sat on the couch at the guest room waiting for Cross while reading a book. He glanced at the wall clock.
6:17 pm.
Nea's POV.
"Mother! Mother!" I dashed home slamming the door open while calling for my mother. I found her in the kitchen baking… I don't what she is baking for I pay no heed into it.
"Mother!" I exclaimed to catch her attention. She turned her head over me after she placed a silverware inside. She smiled.
"What is it, Nea?"
I grinned as I held a basket in front of her face which I hid at my back awhile ago.
"Look what Mana and I got you!"
Apples. A full basket of apples.
"Wow! There are so many! This will be a wonderful treat this afternoon."
"Really!? Will be having a tea party?"
"Yes, Nea. Inside that oven…" she titlted her head to the side and pointed to the oven. "…are cookies." She turned to me once again and smiled. "I bake it myself. Now, may I have the apples?"
"Sure!" I handed her the basket when Mana came rushing in. I turned to face him and so as mother. He looked so…exhausted. Ah yeah. I left him behind before he gotten his feet down from the tree.
"Mana, you're sweating." Mother placed the basket aside and went to get the towel and damp it on Mana's face.
"I'm running to caught up with, Nea. Man, you're so fast!"
I giggled.
"Sorry if left you behind, Mana. I won't do it again."
"Better not. By the way mother," he said just as right after mother finished dampening his sweat in face and back. "I saw uncle's coming this way."
Mother smiled after she placed the cloth aside and turned to face us.
"Isn't that great?" she asked smiling.
Timcanpy watched Allen in his peaceful slumber. Allen smiled and was mumbling something not audible enough to hear but Tim caught one word.
"Mother…" he whispered.
Then a wild knock came. Timcanpy flew to the door and tried to open it using his tail but it was locked.
"Oi! Allen! Are you there!? Link told me you didn't eat your lunch! Oi!" Cross kept on knocking the door.
This seemed the sleeping beauty to reached his ears and groggily sat up rubbing the sleep.
"Hush master. I'm sleeping…" he said groggily.
"I know, idiot! Just open this damn door and eat this!" Cross shouted behind the door.
Not long after, the door opened revealing the reddish-brown haired exorcist (in disguise of Mr. Campbell) with a goblet of red wine on his left and a cart of various types of foods in front of him. Allen reluctantly grabbed the handle of the cart and pulled it inside saying thank you for the food as he closed the door not bothering the irritated looks of his master. He don't know why but he seemed so tired. Maybe because of boredom. Yeah, sometimes boredom drains his energy and falls asleep.
He settled the cart and sat on his bed then Timcanpy came pulling out a Spanish bread and began his little feasting time. Allen soon followed.
"Thanks for the food. Tim, will you please pull this cart back to the kitchen?" Tim nodded and snaked his tail on the handle and flew out of the room to the kitchen.
Allen sighed and slumped back.
He faced the ceiling reminiscing what he had just seen awhile ago inside the golden locket. The picture inside was a teen at his age with dark shade of hair sitting in front of the piano, glancing to his left facing the camera and smiled, and there is someone standing behind the said teen was also a teen of about his age clinging his shoulders to the one who sat in the piano's seat and smiled, then a sudden memory flooded his mind causing him to faint because of pain.
Mana… he thought before he fell asleep once again and Tim just came back. Tim noticed that Allen was sleeping again so Tim chirped the bedding and tucked it on Allen then he let it go and went in on Allen's neck to find warm and sleep.
The two were sleeping while the poor Link was currently acting like a servant.
As you may guess… Cross was commanding him here and there. Bring him another shot of wine, massaging his stiff shoulders and legs, and began mumbling that he used to do telling Link that he must find a pretty woman to marry, why does there isn't any a single lady in the house to drink with and so on and so fort.
Wisely: Alright! Our author says it. Thanks for the reviews and this makes our author to feel better. If you only seen her this morning and afternoon. She's ripping her hair! Seriously, she wanted to make up this chapter but she just can't. luckily, before her sanity skips, her father asked her if she's goin' to use the laptop, she said nothing. She doubt to answer then her brother said he will use the laptop she felt like her heart sank deeper thinking she couldn't do it by today. But luck is here, her father told his brother that he can't and this cracked a smile on her face that hid by the shadow. She just waited for her father to go before she opened the laptop and began typing as fast as she could. see? Surprisingly, her father asked her if she's going to used it unlike what he used to be. Most of the nights her father just tell her to sleep early.
Anyways~! *flowers* reviews please… we're almost there!
