(Sugar rush Main Street, candleheads books/ Internet cafe)
Lucy was helping mocho find a book he needed while his sister breathed down her neck
"This would be a lot easier with you not hovering over me, Cinnamon" said Lucy
"Can't let my guard down" said Cinnamon
Mocho picked out a book titled 'The art of space warfare' and showed it to Lucy. After scanning a few pages she nodded and handed the book back to him. Cinnamon gave mocho some money.
"Why don't you pay for that, get yourself a drink or something and wait for us at a table. I need to have a quick chat in private with Lucy" said Cinnamon
"Sure thing sis" said Mocho before leaving
Lucy was dragged into the girls bathroom by cinnamon.
?""What?" Asked Lucy
"You don't want me here do you?" Asked Cinnamon
"What are you talking about?" Asked Lucy
"You have that look that says you wish I wasn't here. Look I'm sorry with how I treated you in your own house. Mocho likes you but I don't know enough about you. I'm just trying to look out for my little brother, I'm sure you understand" said Cinnamon
Lucy nodded.
"I do have some questions for you though, are you and mocho, dating?" Asked Cinnamon
"No, mocho doesn't like me like that, he tells me he has eyes on someone else but he won't tell me who" said Lucy
"Yeah my brother can be weird like that. Another question, that joy stuff in your purse, I know you still have it. Why do you have that? You don't look like the person who'd take-
"I'm not a drug addict, and the reason why I have them is, well I have problems, really bad problems, my life is in no way perfect, and those pills help me forget things I don't want to remember. But they're dangerous to use in great numbers, I only use them when I'm really depressed. I've just met you so I'm not fully ready to tell you my problems I hope you understand. Getting this stuff is pretty painful too" said Lucy
"Painful? How?" Asked Cinnamon
(Flashback, Game: We Happy Few, 2 months ago)
Lucy was smacked in the face by a police officer baton and forced to the ground. She was held down while a man with a sinister grin on his face held up one of the pink pills and force fed it to her. Lucy grew a great big smile on her face as a result. The cop let her go and left her lying on the street as people with similar smiles watched.
(End flashback)
"Yeah, that's pretty weird" said Lucy
"I have no words" said Cinnamon
"Look I know you don't trust me, but mocho I do care about and I go to great lengths to protect my friends" said Lucy
"That much I know, you and that one girl, Nat I think her name was, didn't you stab jimmy with-
"DONT MENTION THAT! Sorry, but I got in big trouble for that" said Lucy
"Sorry" said Cinnamon "And you're right. I don't trust you enough yet, but I'd love to see you change my mind"
(Back with mocho)
Mocho sat at a table sipping juice from a straw while learning about Star destroyers.
"I never realized there were so many classes of destroyers" said Mocho
He looked up to see his friend and sister walk to him.
"Ready to go bro?" Asked Cinnamon
"Oh yes, just let me put this book away first" said Mocho
Lucy grabbed it
"I'll hold onto it" said Lucy
She unzipped her purse and stuffed it inside. Cinnamon was surprised to see the entire book fit inside and the bag zip shut, considering the book was bigger than the bag.
"How'd you fit-
"I get asked that a lot, I'll explain later. Come on mocho, I promised I'd take you to see a movie and that's what I'm going to do" said Lucy
