" Hgnnn! Hmmmmahhh! "

" Making noises and waving your hands at the rice won't make the color change "

" Well then what do you suggest mister ' I know everything ' "

" I suggest you focus. I can't help you even if I wanted to so figure it out "

" You're such a mood kill. I don't see how my uncle is with you "

" W-WHAT?! WHO TOLD U THAT?! "

" Told me what? "

" What you just said... "

" Yeah. I don't get how he is with you, I would never live with someone like you "

" * sigh * please just focus on the rice "

" Fine....so I have a question "

" What? "

" Why is my mom always sad? "

" What are you talking about? "

" She's always sad about me, I can hear some of her thoughts. She said something about my future, how it would look for me. I'm not normal...am I? "

My eyes softened as I stared back at her. I knew what she was talking about, splendor shortly briefed me on the situation along with the other proxies

" No. You aren't. None of us are. Your mom is the only human here, the rest of us are..."

" What are normal kids like? Can they read minds? "

" Nope. Normal people are like your mom, no powers. One life. Minimum of around 80 years "

" How long will I live? "

" I'm not sure. You're the first kind of...well you "

" So I'm special? "

" Yeah I guess you could say that "

" I don't wanna be special. I wanna be able to fit in "

" You do fit in. You look like any old human kid, so don't fret on that. As far as your future...I can't explain that to you. Ask your parents "

" But if I ask they'll know I've been reading their thoughts "

" Take it from me kid, a parent always knows when the child knows something. Man my parents could tell right away that me and Jeff had done or heard something- and let me tell you they definitely did not let it slide "

" Wait...YOU AND JEFF ARE BROTHERS? "

" Yes, I just blew your small child mind didn't I? "

" No way! That means you're also my uncle! "

" NO! No....just Liu "

" Fine! You're nothing like Jeff "

" I know "

" Does it bother you? "

" No, never "

"......."

Only the noises of the trees moving could be heard

" Uncle Liu... what was it like going to school? "

" It was boring, had some friends "

" Oh "

" In any case it was mainly- oh shit! Look "

Her tiny little face lit up as she had seen that the rice had turned black

" I did it!.... I did it! I did it! I did it! I'm gonna go tell mom! "

" Okay "

" Thanks uncle Liu!!! "

The sound of her small footsteps slowly getting farther and farther away filled the room, a subtle smile crept on my face

Your POV

" Y/n! Please, can we talk about this? "

" I don't want to! "

" Y/n- I'm only going to ask one more time- "

" I said- "

Air was knocked out of me as my body was caged agaisnt the wall

" You may be my fiance but don't think that you can simply blow me off. We need to talk about this "

" Talk about what? I'm alone in this entire thing- "

" Bullshit! Just because you died to protect us doesn't mean you have the right to stand here and say that! I love Yumi just as much as you, don't EVER say you're alone in this again "

" I....I'm sorry, I have no excuse for being like this. I know I've been really shitty and bitchy lately and I'm sorry I just- "

The salty flavor of my tears clouding my words, my heart beginning to feel heavy

" I! I'm sorry- I'm not a good partner- I'm not even a good mother- I don't know what to do even when I was pregnant I was so scared about having a kid- I can't even take care of myself let alone a child- I'm such a fucking idiot-! "

Slender POV

Gently, I grabbed the back of her neck connecting our lips together, sometimes I forget how small she is compared to me so much hat I have to bend over a little

I could feel her body relax under my soft touch, her eyes fixated on me. She was the first to pull away

" Y-you....why would you- "

" I can't stand to sit here and listen to you bered yourself. You are a fantastic mother, I'm sorry I snapped even if it was valid. This is hard on both of us, I'm here with you this time. You're not alone Mi tesoro "

" God I hate it when you use different languages on me..."

" Yet you enjoy it~ "

" Fuck you "

" I might~ "

" MOM! DAD! "

Yumi's excited voice called out, hearing it I quick y put distance between the two of us. I wouldn't want to set such an example for her

" I MADE THE RICE TURN BLACK! I DID IT! "

" It's seems that she did indeed change the color " Splendor spoke walking around the corner

" That's good Yumi, I'm proud of you. All you have to do now is change it back, but that's for another day "

" Why? I can do it right now! I'm not even * yawn * that tired! I can do it! "

" No, I wonder where you get such a stubborn attitude from " I replied nudging y/n only for her to playfully roll her eyes

" C'mon Yumi, you're tired and you need rest. I'll tell you a story if you do~ "

" OKAY! " she hurrily speeded away upstairs out of our line of sight

" Do you really think she can turn the color back splendor? " Y/n asked. Her face read calmness, but I could tell she was freaking out

"  Honestly, I'm not sure. It's a waiting game of time "
