As Ethan and Colin left Alisa sighed, knowing that she had to tell the kids. She slowly walked up to Suzie’s room, opening to door to find Luke and Suzie talking. The pair stopped and looked at their mom, about to tell right away something was up.
“Mom?”
“Are you ok? You look... worried.” Alisa sat down, not sure if it was really safe to touch her own kids right now. She was quiet for a moment before finally showing Luke and Suzie the paper.
“I found this in Luke’s room. The suit.... It’s supposed to be permanent.” Alisa was clearly upset, while Luke and Suzie were both in shock.
“Wait. We’re going to be like this forever?”
“No, no, no.... I don’t wanna be stuck. Luke! G-get off!” Suzie began to try and pull away in vain. It was no use. She was and her brother were firmly attached to one another. Alisa started crying at this point, not sure what to do.
“I... I’m sorry. I didn’t want this.” She couldn’t stop, but soon got up. “I’ll... leave you two to handle some things.” She then left, not wanting her kids to see her break down. She hadn’t even told them about Ethan and Colin, but she wasn’t sure how to now.
