This is after my one-shot, What really happen? A few months after Blaine's outburst. If you didn't read that, read that first.
Warning: I don't own Glee.
— After 2 years, June 2019 —
The house is now crowded. Jake and Ryder always feels at home in the apartment. Blaine meet Jake in Julliard and decided to inform him that most of the 2nd gen lives in this apartment. Jake and Ryder still being the bestfriend that they are, decided to crash and bring chaos in here.
Ryder is also studying here in New York, small world, Major in Urban Planning in NYU Wagner, he picks this cause his teacher told him that it is one of the courses that dyslexic people take. Jake is a scholar in Julliard and Puck gives him allowance since he is sort of big time right now.
Jake and Ryder live together. Boys would be boys, they don't like their apartment because there is always no food. It's always delivery for them. Jake is the first one who decided to use our house as his mailing address and our telephone. Ryder was still shy at first but after a month he came around.
After 2 years, Unique graduated, but still wouldn't leave the apartment because he has shows in New York. Atleast he pays, unlike someone, whose names are Jake and Ryder. Well... They do buy grocery, but still not acceptable.
"I want a car like that." Jake said as the car of Mr. Incredibles was showcased. We are watching The Incredibles 2 that Ryder rented because we are a bunch of kids looking for something to do on a weekend with no school work.
"You already have a car." Kitty said throwing popcorn at him. Jake and Ryder is sitting in the floor. I am laying in Unique's lap in the sofa, while Marley is laying in the other side of Unique. Kitty is sitting on a bean bag beside Marley.
"Why? Can't I dream of a car while having a car?" Jake said throwing back the popcorn at her.
"Who cares? Jake's car is older than my mother." Ryder said throwing another popcorn in Jake's direction.
"Stop throwing food. You're guys are not a kid. And second, Jake's car is not old. Secondhand, yes, but not old. The most important thing is that it could drive us to school." I said. Jake is like our driver cause he is the only one who has a car.
"Preach." Kitty, Marley and Unique said. The telephone suddenly ring. We nudge each other to pick it up, but no one did. The call came straight to the voicemail.
"Tina, it's me Blaine. I know you are home, I need help. Can you go to Brooklyn? I texted you the address. It's an emergency, we need you right now. And yes, I'll pay for the cab." Blaine sounds frantic and that could only mean one thing.
"I'll go. You guys make sure the doors are closed when I leave. And clean up the popcorn mess you did. Eat dinner, don't skip. Jake and Ryder make sure that the door is lock when you leave, if you guys are not staying for the night. I'll come back tomorrow." I said as I gather my things in a bag.
I'm here. It's a two storey house, elegant with a touch of sparkles. I knocked on the door and waited for an answer. After a few tries someone answered and I was surprised with the Latina in front of me.
"What are you doing here?" She asked.
I took a deep breath and answered. "Blaine called me here. He said it was an emergency. Is he here?" Then I saw Blaine, Kurt, Brittany and Rachel in the background. I was going to call Blaine when Santana spoke.
"Wait for a minute." She closed the door and talked to them inside.
"Why did you call her?" She said.
"What? She's the only one who could help her." the other person said, it think it's Blaine.
"Stop this. We need her. And swallow your pride for a minute, or that girl would die. And I'm pretty sure that Tina can hear us behind the door." I'll say that's Kurt. I can't hear what Santana replied but another minute have passed when the door opened. It was Blaine.
"We need your help."
"I figured that much from the converstion you have at the back of this door and at the call you gave me. What's the problem? Too big that it would result to you guys calling me?" I asked as Blaine lead me inside.
"Santana and Brittany adopted a child." Kurt said.
"That's good, right?" I looked at all of them. They are all settled in the living room looking so devastated.
"No. It's been a week since we got her. And she haven't been eating, a single thing Tina. She haven't eat a thing." Santana said.
"Why'd you call me?"
"She's asian. She's a seven year old Korean to be precise." Kurt said.
I glared at Blaine. "You do know I don't speak Korean."
Blaine shook his head. "She speak english, Tina."
"Then, why did you call me?"
"I don't know. You are the closest one and you're good with kids. Remember, Kitty used to drag you guys to volunteering in an orphanage. Her parents died infront of her, Tina. She's been in the orphanage for a few months. New house, new environment and new things could scare her. " Blaine said as he rose from his seat and took my hand.
"Please, Tina. Try to talk to her. Maybe something would happen." Blaine is giving me those eyes. The eyes that he know I can't resist. I look back to Santana and Brittany. They look like they haven't slept.
I sigh. "Fine, but I'm not promising on something." Blaine lead me upstairs with everyone following behind. He opened the door on the left side and a girl comes into a view. She is sitting on the far side of the room, on the floor. I left the door opened because everyone wanted to take a peek, and I approach the girl. She looks like an American to me. She doesn't look like an Asian at all.
"Hi!" She looked at me then bow her head and continued to bite her nails.
"What is your name?" She didn't answer so I look around the room and found a big Eli in the middle of the wall infront of her bed.
"Hi Eli! My name is Tina. I'm also Korean like you... I heard you haven't been eating." She didn't reply, again. I continued.
"You should really eat. Eating makes you grow up. Don't you want to grow like us?" Another silence so I decided to change the topic.
"You know I was also adopted. You know... like I was suddenly inside a house with someone I don't know. And they give me things, a beautiful room and everything." That really got her attention. She look at me, and I take it as a sign to continue.
"Do you believe in Jesus?" She nod. Good, now I just have to make her believe me.
"Well, do you know where your parents are right now?" She shake her head. I smiled at her.
"They are up there." I said pointing to the top. "They are now watching you from above. Do you know what they are feeling right now?" I asked her and she whispered, "No..."
"They are sad. Do you know why?" She nod her head and I heard Kurt said in the background, "I already tried that one."
"So you know they are sad because you won't eat?" She nod her head. "Then, do you know that your parents are up there, but they aren't inside the heaven. They are just in those big walls and big gates that they talked about." With this she started to look at me.
"They have to pass those gates to go to heaven. And your mom and dad doesn't want to passed those gates without seeing you happy. Those gates would closed soon, if they don't get in now they wouldn't be able to go to heaven. Do you want them to go down there?" I pointed downward. I know it's a jerk thing to say that to a kid, but I am desperate. I wish her parents would forgive me. She suddenly said, "No..." The first word that she didn't whisper.
"Then you have to eat. Make them see that you are going to be okay. That you are going to be fine with your new family. And they don't have to be worried about you." She nod again but this time she said, "If I eat they would got to heaven. And I would take care of me so they won't have to be worried about Eli." That I didn't expect.
"You don't have to take care of Eli. Do you remember the girls who bought you here?" She looked confused but still nod her head.
"They are the gift your parents left you before they go to heaven. They are going to take care of you. They would love you like how your parents loved you." She looked surprised.
"Really? They aren't here to take Eli to Satan?" Okay now, I am the one confused.
"Why would they take you to Satan?" I asked.
"The kids in the pink house said they are going to make Eli live hell. Satan live in hell Eli doesn't want to go hell. I want to go with mommy." She said. Oh... Now I get it. I'll take that pink house as something the two should avoid.
"No... They are here to protect you from Satan." And I whispered, "Although one of them is already Satan." She looked at me and I smiled at her.
"They are going to give you a new family. Family like mommy, daddy, and you. Don't be afraid of them. I'll kick they're butts if they hurt you."
"Really? Would they dance with me like Mommy and Daddy did?" Now I know why they adopted this kid.
"Yes, they are one of the best dancers I know. And they also sing." The girl started cheering up. She doesn't cross her arms anymore, neither does looking down. I'll pretty good at this thing.
"Really? My mom don't know how to sing. And Dad said singing is for only girls." I nod at hear.
"So do you want to got there and eat. Then, let's ask them if they want to dance afterwards." I smilled at her when she stand up.
"Let's go?" She nod. We walk towards the others but we were surprised when she ran towards Brittany and Santana.
"Thank you for not taking me Satan." They gave me a look and I just said, "We'll talk later."
