Day 15 of Summer, Year 6
The day everyone was waiting for. Finally they could all sleep in an apartment with a bed and a bathroom. But several families had to live in one apartment. The only lucky ones were Mexx and Abigail. Again. They could live alone, they only had each other. And Vic.
"Well, take care! We'll see each other less from now on, or more often!", Lewis said when everyone arrived at their new home.
Then he left.
"Welcome to the new home!", Mexx said to Abigail.
"Even if it's worse than before, we'll have to get used to it.", Abigail added.
"Unfortunately we are all now extremely close to each other. Our neighbors are below, above and next to us", Mexx stated. "This also means that your parents live nearby..."
"No. Other. Choice. We'll get through here.", Abigail finished.
Day 23 of Summer, Year 6
The doorbell rang.
"Hmmm. Who could that be?"
Abigail and Mexx were completely clueless who might be there. Abigail opened the door. A woman and a teen stood there.
"Is Mexx here?", the woman asked "and... who are you?"
"I'm his wife. The better question is who you are and what you want from my husband.", Abigail replied quickly.
"You shouldn't know until later, but I'll say the name. I'm Anne and this is.. Natalya. May I speak to him now, please?", the woman responded.
"Ok, come in"
When Mexx sees her, he is startled.
"Anne, what are you doing here?! How did you find me?!", he turns to Abigail: "Please, don't kill me!"
"Dear Mexx, who even is that? And.. who is this little girl?", Abigail asked in confusion.
"Come on Mexxy, say it already!", Anne begged him.
"She-, she... was my girlfriend, but I hope you didn't come to get revenge on me because I ruined your life, I hope it's not true?", Mexx said eventually "And who is that? We want to know that finally!"
"Mom, who is this guy? Why have we come this far way? Just to say hello to someone who's a complete stranger for me?!", Natalya asked impatiently.
"Man, always these typical 16 years old teens, annoying me... so, now to you, Mexxy. Yes, you kinda ruined my life. And who she is, I'll tell you just first. Come on, let's talk for a moment in private.", Anne said.
They went to another room.
"As you already know I am the mother of this beautiful girl. I wanted to introduce you her." she started.
"And why exactly me?", Mexx asked bored.
"...It's your daughter.", she said it extremely quickly.
Mexx almost fainted.
"God, I've caused so many accidents in my life! This youth was a really weird time, wasn't it. Please, forgive me!", Mexx said sadly.
"Don't need to. It was me who wanted to have with you... you already know. But I didn't know you fled to Ferngill after war. I thought, we'd marry after war. But as I can see, you've already found a new life... The girl's 16, that means you're only 17 years older than her. You are extreme. I was 20 at least.", she replied.
After a few minutes of silence, she continued: "But she's completely yours in appearance. She's got your eyes, your nose, your hair color. But the character is my side: impatience, rudeness, but if you bring her up well, she can turn into a good girl. Now let's go back and explain it as comfortably as possible."
They went back to the other two, who were already talking.
"-you love amethysts?! Me too!", Abigail could be heard saying.
"Hey, Natalya. Come here.", she came "tell me, does he look like you?", Anne asked Natalya.
"Is he my brother?", Natalya asked curiously.
"No. That's your biological father, isn't it?", Abigail asked.
Everyone turned to Abigail.
"How did you know that?", Anne asked.
"I could already guess it.", Abigail responded.
"Dad? Is that... you? You look pretty young for my 'dad'.", Mexx became sad. "Just kidding! I love you! I'll get to know you!", she threw herself at Mexx and hugged him strongly.
"Well, at least he didn't cheat on me...", Abigail said angrily.
"He cheated on me without knowing that. Btw, how old are you, Abigail?", Anne asked Abigail.
"I'm 23.", Abigail replied.
"Wow, 23... very young. He found someone younger, nicer and probably smarter than me. Btw, I'm 36.", Anne responded.
"Hmmm. 3 years older than Mexx...", Abigail thought "He made another accident in his life, did you know?"
"And what?", Anne asked curiously.
Abigail called Victor.
"In my 18s, I hadn't even thought of having children of my own. All that had to do with 'body touching' was just, you know, XXX. Just XXX, not impregnation. That was the only thing I thought about when I was 18. But not that far. I got pregnant even if we weren't married. On accident. I couldn't do an abortion, I didn't wanna kill the baby. So... here the result :) A little Victor.", Abigail said happily.
"Oh wow, so cute! His hair color is exotic though. Purple mixed with brown? How old is he?", Anne asked excited.
"I'm five, I'm five!", Victor said laughing, jumping around.
They turned to the amusers. Natalya was still excited and asked Mexx about his previous life.
"No sorry, that's too early for you, Natalya. You better shouldn't know these things yet. When you get to know me better, I'll maybe tell you about my 'adventures' in the wars, where I've been.", Mexx could be heard saying.
Abigail, having noticed, began: "You've been in... several wars?"
"Nonono, I wasn't. You misheard.", Mexx said nervously, afraid of the next war with the purple-haired girl.
"I think, we should go now. Come on Natalya, time to go. She will visit you more often.", Anne said.
Mexx and Abby whispered. Then Mexx finally said: "I can provide you with an apartment so that my child stays close to me. Here, as a neighbor."
"Thanks Mexx, that's really nice but-",
Anne was interrupted by her daughter.
"But of course! Come on, can you do it now?! Please?!"
Anne knew it was impossible to resist against Natalya. So she accepted the offer.
"We still have to go back to pack our bags."
"I'm staying here with my dad!", Natalya said, beaming.
