“Yu?” Skylar said, “YU!?” She almost shouted,
“Where did sh— he go?” Bella asked,
“Why would I know!?” Skylar shouted back, “you’re the one who made the wish!!”
“Calm down, Sky,” Bella said, “if it’s ‘exactly what you fear most’ or whatever I said, it means I probably transformed him into… I don’t know… getting good grades!” She said, cackling to herself with her joke. She had always thought she was incredibly funny,
“This isn’t funny!!” Skylar shouted, very seriously, “you could’ve killed him!”
“Oh whatever,” Bella brushed off, “Cara!” She said. Cara turning her head to face Bella,
“Uh huh?” She replied,
“Do me a favour and grab the other man,” she demanded.
Tonya, for the first time, shouted, “don’t even THINK about it!” As she grabbed her boyfriends arm, pulling him towards her,
“I’m sorry, Mommy,” Cara apologised, “but I have to do what Bella-Bella asks of me,” Cara replied, all of her words sounding like air in a balloon,
“Mommy?” Skylar, Tonya, and David said at once.
Cara’s arms stretched like elastic, wrapping around David. It was fairly clear that she was avoiding touching Tonya in any capacity. She didn’t want to hurt her now ‘Mommy’ figure.
“How odd…” Bella said, “I suppose because you gave birth to her, you would technically be her mother,” she pondered,
“That’s gross!” Tonya exclaimed, “and don’t do anything to him! I will make sure you regret it!”
“Will you lighten up already?” Bella said, bored of Tonya, “I’m fed up with your whining. I wish your mind was as empty as your ‘daughters’,”
Just like that, her mind seemed to be emptying. Anything she was truly worried about was casually floating away… just like air escaping a balloon.
Skylar was noticing a pattern.
“What am I worried about?” Tonya asked, placing her finger to her lip in an almost comical fashion. Then she seemed to remember, “oh right! Stop your friend touching my boyfriend or something…” she said, barely for forcing any emotion at all. Bella giggled, turning her attention to David,
“You just removed any kind of emotion she had!” He said, angrily, “what kind of monster are you,”
“One who’s bored of listening to people complaining all the time… why don’t we make you a bit more well-‘rounded’,” she stated, giggling at herself.
