Chapter Sixty-Eight: The End of Day One

When Honey said that she liked Optimus, Marian was completely blown away. What the Autobot leader did to impress her sister, she couldn't begin to fathom, but the little, brunette, seven-year-old was giving her the worse case puppy dog eyes and guilt tripping. And it was rather hard to avoid looking at her when she wasn't actually allowed to drive though she was in the driver's seat, therefore forcing her to look fascinated in the buttons that controlled the windows.

"You never let me do anything."

She turned to stare at the speedometer, ignoring the watery eyes next to her.

"And Pinky is broke! We need Optimus!"

Cringing at the nickname of her demolished car, she forced herself to gaze out the windshield.

"And Optimus wants to stay with us, don't you Optimus?"

"Honey, he has better things to do than sit around our driveway all day."

"But he wanted us to stay at the..." She trailed off, searching for the right word, "Base! That means he likes us!"

Biting back a scoff, the artist shook her head, "It means he felt obligated to keep an eye on us because we got caught up in their stupid 'war'."

"Optimus likes us." Honey stubbornly stated. "And since Pinky is broke, we need Optimus! How else am I supposed to get to school?"

"The bus, just like you do every other day."

The moment the truck pulled into the driveway, Honey kicked open the door and stormed over to the rickety swing set, where she stomped her feet several times before sitting on a swing in a pout. Groaning, Marian glared at the steering wheel and started to open the door, but the radio crackled to life, causing her to pause.

"I do not agree with your choice, for it not only puts yourself in danger, but Honey as well. The Decepticons have, no doubt, labeled you as an Autobot sympathizer, and will waste no time attacking you." The Autobot leader explained carefully, "If I must escort her to... 'School', then I shall. It not my desire to allow harm to come to the humans that we seek to protect."

Withdrawing her hand from the door, she gave a heavy sigh, "This is all a bit much. I'm tired and I'm hurting and overall? I just want to go to bed. So you want to take Honey to school? Fine. Take her to school. You still want me to babysit those kids? Fine. Drop them off here after school. I want nothing to do with you. Don't speak to me and don't bother me. Maybe if you fix my car and give it back to me exactly how it was, then I'll consider letting you hang around us more."

Once she finished talking, she hopped out of the truck and made her way over to the door, grumbling as she tripped on the step due to the dark. She searched her pockets for her house key before she realized that it was attached to her car keys that were in her car, which was God-knows-where. Moaning loudly, she braced herself and slammed her shoulder in the door in an attempt to force it open. It took her several tries, but when it finally gave, she was sent sprawling on the ground when she lost her balance, leaving her on the floor with a bruised shoulder and a sister laughing hysterically at her from across the yard.

Thus ending the first of many ungodly frustrating days of Marian Padauk's life.
