Chapter 20
Weeks pass, the funeral passes, I don't say a word, Wanda doesn't say a word. There's a new Avengers group, Wanda joins, my dad doesn't, and I'm not ready to join.
Mom tries to comfort me, but the numbness doesn't leave.
"Friends" try to visit, I still don't speak.
Months pass, summer passes. I rarely leave my room, sure people are concerned. Fury even comes around, but still, Fili and Kili (my pigeons) are set free. I feel bad keeping them in cages, they need the life I don't have or ever have.
But then one day, when I decide I'm hungry enough to go down and get food that isn't in bar form, the entire avengers (new and old) are there.
"Becky, we need to talk." Mom says.
I just nod my head.
"Please, we need to know how you're feeling." She says, "We are here for you."
I shake my head.
"Becky, we have an idea. Clint, he has a farm. We, your dad and I, decided you are going to spend the school year there. It's good for you. You leave in two days. This is for the best."
I can't take it anymore, they don't understand. I leave the kitchen and just grab stuff to bring to the prison- I mean farm.
"JARVIS, play playlist one." I whisper.
"Ma'am, I do not understand that function." A female voice says.
"JARVIS, why do you not understand?"
"I am not JARVIS, I am FRIDAY."
"NO, you are JARVIS. Why do you sound so weird?" I say louder.
"Can I help in any way?"
"Bring back my friends." I scream, "If you are so smart, bring them back."
I throw a pillow at the wall and just fall on my floor.
"Excuse me, Becky?" a voice just like JARVIS says.
"JARVIS?" I ask, not looking at the source.
"Unfortunately, that is not me, I am Vision, remember?" he says.
"Oh, sorry." I whisper.
"I do not have much left of JARVIS, at least what I can give. But I have this." He comes over to me and hands me a flash drive.
"What is it?"
"A small part of his coding, I thought you could maybe build off it. Good luck at the farm." And with that he leaves.
Perhaps it can be better.
