Kaylee repeated every night that there was someone and this fact terrified her, she had to admit it, because someone was able to sneak into their house and steal the little privacy they had. In fact, she had begun to obsess about it, believing that, indeed, someone was able to observe them at night. However, it was Mon-el's job to make her believe that this was not true, to take away that idea from her head, but the truth is that it was hard to believe her, because there was nothing she could prove and she needed some kind of evidence.
That night she was going to stay up and, if she did not, at least she would have some recording device, although she had to admit that she was terrified of what she could see in that video.
She shook her head, she was still in CatCo and had to focus on what she was writing at the time, but it was constant that her mind thought about the other, a fact that was noticed by Cat Grant, who did not hesitate to make a sign for her to approach her, so she did it with some nervousness.
"What is happening to you? You aren't concentrate" she asked directly to what she ducked her head.
"I know" she whispered. "It's been a couple of days since Kaylee has said for the first time that someone enters the house at night and she continues saying it, I'm beginning to think that what she says is true" she explained, ducking herg head.
"You'll have to check it" Cat looked at her to what she nodded, it was something she had to do, but, she wasn't sure if she wanted to know what or who it was?. "I have the feeling that you don't want to know the truth" she heard her comment, which made her nod again. "Why?" she asked curiously.
"I'm afraid to find out who is the person who enters the house" she admitted in just a whisper. "I'm not sure what I'm going to find and I'm terrified I can't protect them enough" she explained.
"Kara, whatever it is what creeps into your house at night, you can with it" Cat began to speak. "You haven't gotten to where you are now being afraid, you have fought a lot, you can protect them" she tried to encourage her, so she tried to smile, but she was still nervous. "Do you have any ideas?" she asked.
"Don't sleep and record it" she answered, because there was no other plan than that.
"It's a plan" she heard Cat comment. "You'll tell me when you find out" she smiled.
She nodded with a smile before leaving the office, determined to continue with her work, although she still could not concentrate, so after making sure what time it was, she decided to leave to pick the children from school, even knowing that Mon-el was going to do it. That was the reason why he did not hesitate to look at her questioning, but after listening to her explanations, he tried to play down the importance of what she had been doing since Kaylee assured them that.
At first she did not believe it either, she did not want to do it, but with the insistence from the child, it was increasingly difficult to deny what was happening, although Mon-el seemed to want to put some kind of logic to that, but it was not so easily to believe that someone would enter the house at night and that neither of them would have noticed it yet.
She shook her head as she felt Kaylee's arms around her legs, which made her look at her as she smiled, lifting her chin to continue to watch her, grabbing her hand to start walking, laughing when Mon-el caught the little girl in his arms making her scream because of the scare. However, during all the way the kid was absent, which made her wonder what was going on in her head, because she was convinced that it was related to nightmares, but she was afraid to ask about it, for fear of the response that she was going to receive, deciding that maybe it was better to let it be.
She hugged Kaylee as she felt the presence herself, forcing herself to open her eyes to discover once and for all who broke into her house at night. She walked down the hall ready to hit even though she was completely paralyzed by fear, seriously, she could not believe that this was more frightening than everything she had faced in her life, but the reality was that she was aware of that this event could harm her family. When she arrived at the kitchen, she knew it was there and her first instinct was to punch, although the first one went to the air, the second hit on that person, putting her hands to her mouth at the time she heard him complain.
"Can I know why you just punched me?" He asked turning to her.
"If you have turned on the light I could have known it was you" she complained crossing her arms. "I'm sorry" she whispered.
"I'm fine, but I think I wouldn't think of punching the darkness" he said trying to remain serious.
"You know what Kaylee says and above you are in the dark, What are you supposed to be doing?" she asked.
"I was drinking water" he answered. "I think that you haven't been able to hunt whatever you were going to hunt, Are you sure it is not a Pokémon? Because you were going to need a pokeball and patience" He was starting to mess up with her.
"Mon-el, that game is obsolete" she looked him straight into his eyes. "And a Pokémon would be easier to hunt than whatever that sneaks into the house" she said starting to laugh. "I'm sorry for hitting you" she smiled hugging him.
"You're lucky I love you enough to forgive you," she heard him comment while hugging her. "Let's sleep." He kissed her forehead.
She could not help smiling when she opened her eyes, because her gaze met his, who seemed to have been awake for some time, watching her while she slept, which was tender for her.
"You're not going to hit me, are you?" He laughed, looking directly into her eyes.
"I hadn't thought it" she commented laughing, watching as he narrowed his eyes. "I'm sorry, but I thought ... what Kaylee said is starting to freak me out" she admitted turning her gaze towards the little girl, who was sleeping in the middle of both of them embraced to a small teddy bear.
The little girl's blond hair was all over her face, so she did not hesitate to move it away, smiling as she looked at the kid because she conveyed so much peace in these moments that it cost her to think that in previous moments she had been assaulted by a nightmare.
The fact that the child slept with them had become habitual during these last days, because the girl had not stopped saying that the person who entered in house, went to her room, which had made the child sought protection in them.
"She's so little," she whispered, keeping her hand on her daughter cheek. "So innocent ..." she felt her voice breaking as she closed her eyes without wanting to give way to tears.
"Kara ..., hey ..." Mon-el dried the tears that were beginning to fall down her cheeks. "Whatever happens, we'll be able to find a solution, okay?" He tried to calm her, but it was not simple to do it, not when both were aware that they did not know what was happening. "Maybe we don't know where the information comes from, but we'll find a solution, I'm sure of it" he said, but this time she looked at him through of her tears.
"Mon-el, she is able to understand the Kryptonese, even able to repeat what she hears" she said while shaking her head. "She also know that you were a prince, we never said anything of that, How can she know?" she asked in just a whisper.
"Did you left the camera recording?" he asked to which she nodded slightly getting up in it search, but she did not find it, so she returned to the room completely pale. "What's wrong?" She questioned getting up to approach her.
"It's not here, the camera is not here, it might have taken it away," she said surprised, knowing that if this had happened it was because whoever it was, it did not want to be discovered.
She sighed, everything that she had been planning for days, it had not worked, because she had not discovered who it was, although it helped her to be more intelligent, because now she knew that she should hide the camera, that, maybe, that way she would be able to to prevent her from finding out who it was.
She had tried again and she had succeeded, so that, after Mon-el left with the children to school, she sat on the couch with the camera in her hands, thinking whether or not to reproduce it, feeling her heart beat with strength because of the uncertainty of what she was going to find out.
She closed her eyes for a few seconds, trying to relax, being sufficiently prepared to press that button that would start the recording, although she was interrupted by Mon-el, who was opening the door.
"Hey, were you going to watch it?" he asked approaching her, sitting next to her. "I brought you something" she watched him smile as he showed her a bag, unable to avoid laughing the moment he put the hat in her head and gave her the pokeball. "Now you're ready to hunt it," he said between laughs while she shook her head.
"Thanks," she laughed hugging him.
"Let's watch it, okay?" He looked at her making her nod slightly before pressing the button.
The image was dark, too much to distinguish something clearly, which caused her to have to reproduce it a second time to make sure of what she was seeing, because the first time she only saw a kind of shadow, a sensation given by the clothes that person, since they were black. However, the second time she distinguished even more, noticing that the figure seemed to be a woman, at which point she looked at Mon-el, observing the panic and disbelief in his eyes. Was there something beyond to what she was able to see?
Hi!
Who do you think Mon-el saw in the video?
I love the moment when Kara hits Mon-el and he makes the pokémon reference, I think it's something Mon-el would say on the show.
Have you seen the last episode? Because that last scene is freaking me out.
Thanks for reading,
