Part 16

"Rue, you have to come out at some point." Katya said from Rue's doorway

"That's a lie. Dad said I could do whatever I want. You said that too. Or were you lying to me?" She said as she lay in bed, her back towards her mother.

"Ruby that is enough. I know you're upset, but you cannot speak to me like that." Katya said sharply.

Rue bolted upright as her mother used her full first name. Rue had only been called it one other time since she was a baby. When she was refusing to leave Suna.

Now you are going to get out of bed, shower and go outside. It's almost lunch time so build up an apetite." Katya ordered. She didn't enjoy being like this, but Rue couldn't hide away for weeks just because she's upset.

"Yes mother." Rue said stiffly before obediently going to the bathroom.

Sighing, Katya went into Rue's room and opened a window to get some fresh air in. On her way out again she noticed a sketch Rue had been working on, faceless children and a swing.

Looking at it, Katya felt a sense of familiarity towards the children. There were two boys and a girl. The boys each held one of the girl's hands and the girl sat on the swing.

Leaving the sketch where she found it, Katya left Rue's room. She sat at the kitchen table and wondered what her next baby would be like.
