Bookishgirl- I meant her to notice it a little more. You're right, I should have been more focused on that. I'll try harder in this chapter.
Chapter 3: The Dizznee's
Sophie had brown eyes. (A/N: You're welcome, bookish girl.)
Edaline had been tired yesterday afternoon, she hadn't noticed that much.
But she had brown eyes.
They were getting ready to go to Slurps and Burps to get Sophie's medicines.
Edaline crawled down the stairs in a dark blue dress, trying to go as slow as possible. She finally reached the table, and Sophie came down a few minutes later in a red, sparkly dress that seemed sort of familiar.
Edaline realized that it was Alden's daughter, Biana's, dress.
They soon left for Kesler's store.
She tried to ignore the whispers throughout the Mysterium, but that was a challenge.
Unfortunately, it was the smallest challenge of today.
They reached Kesler's store, with its bright colors and curvy walls.
Edaline wandered around, trying to stall, but Sophie looked nervous and Edaline wanted to hurry this up.
They shuffled to the back of the store. Behind the pink counter, her nephew, Dex, and her brother-in-law, Kesler.
They were experimenting on something, which released an enormous plume of smoke which smelled like dirty feet.
Kesler finally looked up.
"Edaline!" He exclaimed.
She wanted to run out of the store and hide, but instead she faced her blonde relative and said, "Hello, Kesler."
She moved across the room slowly, letting Kesler wrap her into a hug.
She handed him the list of things Sophie needed. "Elwin needs these things for Sophie."
Kelser glanced at the sheet before snapping up. "Sophie?" His jaw dropped.
Edaline took a deep breath. "Sophie lives with us now."
Edaline introduced her nephew to Sophie.
Sophie seemed as reluctant as her to greet them, but Edaline heard a quiet, "hi."
Dex started talking rapidly, Sophie quietly answering his questions. Edaline tried to explain Sophie living in the Forbidden Cities, and Dex burst into another rapid-fire question round.
"Dex, I think you're making Sophie uncomfortable." Edaline said hurriedly. Sophie looked relived.
Dex apologized, then started his next question. He was interrupted by the door of the store opening.
A tall, dark haired woman in a green cape stalked in.
Vika Heks.
And, a figure in a pink cloak was behind her, who Edaline assumed was Stina Heks, Vika's daughter.
They used to be awful to Jolie and their family at parties and school.
No. We were not thinking about Jolie now.
Too late.
