~Summary~
After a few weeks Mortica let's Wednesday stay at the manor instead of the dorms but each day her daughter seems to change
__________________________________
"Wednesday breakfast is ready" Mortica called up the stairs

Her daughter came down in her school uniform but something was off

She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was

Soon Wednesday was off to school before Mortica could question her

"Gomez"

"Yes cara Mia"

"Don't you think our daughter was a little off today" the tall women said as she snipped the roses in half only putting the thorn stem into the vase

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"Well yes but she was not off in a good way. I almost saw her smile"

"Smile?"

"Yes smile. It's like she's happy to go to school and as much as I would love to see her happy this experience must be hell. It's the only way she'll want to stay at nevermore"

"Have you talked to her about it?"

"No, I didn't get a chance she left so quickly"

Mortica and Gomez anticipated their daughters return but weirdly she wasn't home at her scheduled time

"Awfully strange. Wednesday is usually right on time"

The sudden sound of the door made the gothic couple get up and walk towards the entrance

To their surprise it was pugsley

"Ah pugsley have you seen your sister?"Gomez asked as they walked back to the living room

"I thought she went to school?"

"Yes but recently"

"No. Not since this morning"

The family all gathered for dinner

Still no sign of Wednesday

"I guess we can continue without her" before Mortica could take her first bite the sound of her daughters voice interrupted

"I'm here"

"Wednesday you're late"

"I know"

"Where were you?"

"School"

"It's 7pm and school gets out at 4"

"After school activities"

"Wednesday you and I both know that's a horrible lie"

"Mortica I think we should just eat" Gomez interrupted

The tall women opened the door to her daughters depressing room

"Wednesday"

"Mother" the goth girl lay I bed starting at the ceiling, her arms crossed over her chest as if she was dead

"Are you enjoying school"

"No"

"Ah that's a good thing" Mortica closed the curtains with a smile

She sat on the edge of the dark bed

"Have you made any friends?"

"No"

"Have you tried?"

"No"

They sat in silence for a little before Mortica got up
