Drabble thirty-one: In which Cloud meets his grandma and grandpa

Mature

Lily hated her father-in-law with all of her soul, far much more then she hated the fact that her mother-in-law would always cook raw fish to eat for the three meals of the day every time she came over.

Lily hated fish.

However, they were both of Tayuya's family, so she could not refuse them, especially when they came all the way from Wutai.

Lily twitched, she cursed, she even tried grabbing an unnecessarily large knife, but they were still invited in.

When Cloud came home, he had blinked at the new strangers and tilted his head ever so slightly.

"He looks so much like his father!" The grandmother squealed, surprising Cloud by picking him up cheerfully.

"Sad that he has her blonde hair." Lily gritted her teeth back and forth.

"Don't worry dear, I'm sure it'll turn brown while he grows up."

"Ah yes, that is such a great prophecy of my wife." Cloud squirmed as the grandma pinched his cheek lovingly, and he tried even harder to get out of her grasp.

"Who the heck are you two?" Cloud demanded, finally jumping from his grandmother's grasp, and Lily cheered silently in the background.

"Why, we're your grandma and grandpa!" The couple seemed to be joyful but they threw a very dark glare in Lily's direction, and Lily found that she was consumed by their hatred.

"What the hell is that?" Cloud yelled at them and Lily kept cheering inwardly, happy that it seemed that Cloud hated her in-laws as well.

"The mother and father of your father." Cloud seemed miffed a little about this but did nothing except continue to point at them with a slight frown.

"The mother and father of my father?" Cloud echoed, staring at the old faces, which were giving Lily glares.

"Yes, and we've come to visit our lovely grandchild." Cloud seemed to be contemplating something as his grandmother pinched his cheek again.

"Get out." Lily cheered loudly, gaining glares from her in-laws.

"But why Cloud?"

"Why should I care for a man's parents when he should be here to take care of my mother? Get out." Lily was nearly jumping in joy, happy that Cloud saw the evil in her in-laws.

The grandfather seemed so shocked that he looked like he was going to have a heart-attack, and the grandmother just howled, crying that her baby grandchild hated her.

So they left.

"Good boy Cloud." Lily hugged her son tightly, very happy that the boy was intelligent enough to sense their evil aura.

Cloud said nothing as his mother hugged him, instead he just looked at the door kind of sadly.

Cloud's own mother didn't have any parents, so Cloud supposed he shouldn't expect any visit from any old lady or guy again...

Even if it made him feel kind of like a normal kid.
