NEVAEH || SPIDERMAN: ATSV

"Marilyn" She yelled walked out of the kitchen,

"Yes mama" a tiny voice answered before the speaker came into view,

"Where's your dad?" She asked,

"He just left, they called him on his walkie talkie" The raven haired girl answered,

"What walkie talkie?" I asked in confusion,

The girl burst into laughter,

"Why are you laughing?" I asked,

"Cause you're really funny Mama, how could you also forget that Dad's a police man" She giggled as her curly hair seemed to bounce as she moved her head,

"Oh" I murmured as I looked into her soft blue eyes,

She offered me a kind smile,

"Can I go play outside with the neighbor's kid?" She asked,

"Well..." I paused, unsure of how to answer,

"I've completed all my chores Mama, so please, pretty please" She begged, looking up at me through her long eyelashes,

"Fine, go play" I whispered,

"Thank you, Thank you so much" She yelled as she hugged Nevaeh's legs before running off,

I heard the door open, them close and I knew she had left,

Looking at my wrist, I realized that Xanthe didn't exist in whichever dimension I was in,

And I really needed a perception of time in this universe,

Slowly, I walked up the stairs, feet hitting every creaking floorboard,

I walked up to a familiar room,

My heart jumped into my mouth as I felt a weight on my shoulder,

I was supposed to be alone,

So I thought,

"Hey Nevs, you good?" He asked,

I turned around, my eyes scanning the man,

"Naveen?"

"Who's Naveen?" He asked, tilting his head, so that his black and pale pink dreads leaned to the side,

"What?"

Nevaeh scrunched up her face in confusion,

"Ha, I'm just kidding" Naveen laughed, giving her a playful jab on the arm,

"Don't sneak up on me like that ever again" Nevaeh sighed,

"I won't make any promises, what'd you cook?" He smiled,

"Why don't you go to the kitchen and find out for yourself" She answered with an attitude,

"Are you going to school today?" He asked,

"What for?" Nevaeh asked in confusion,

"You are a teacher?" He stated as a matter-of-factly,

Teacher? How the hell did that happen?

"Oh yeah, I'll go later" She whispered,

"You need me to drive you?" Naveen asked,

"No, I'm pretty sure I can get there myself" She answered,

"You'll take the bus?" He asked,

"I'll drive" She answered,

"But you can't drive" He stated as his face was distorted with confusion as he looked at her like she wasn't okay,
