I know the chapters are short, but that's because when we post them, they will be two or three at a time. So , here's the second chapter.
Calla
Today has been one of the worst days here at 300 Fox Way. I had always hated the Fourth of July along with Maura ever since I moved back out here.
Everyone knew I was grumpier than usual on this one awful day a year. Even when the clients cards are my favourite out of the deck, I can't come to smile.
When Persephone was still around, she used to tell me, Masking your sadness with anger and frustration dies nothing to hide the pain.
Well, unless she could make the sadness disappear, anger would cover it. It would never be fixed now that she was gone.
" Calla!" Maura's voice came from the second level.
" What?!" Always shouting. Why couldn't they all whisper like Persephone?
" Someone's at the door!"
" Calla do this, Calla do that." I mumbled as I walked to the door. " Why not bring in Blue's annoying boys and the snake while your at it."
" I heard that." Blue sang ad she brushed by.
Reaching the door, I pulled it open, expecting to see the annoying boys that Blue followed everywhere aimlessly. Well, they actually had a goal to achieve.
Who I saw on the other side, was not who I was expecting at all.
