Alyson: “I-I’m sorry for black listing and siccing Anton on you. You may be a failure but I shouldn’t have made things worse. That was immature of me. I’m also sorry for letting you get bullied for so long. Even failures don’t deserve that treatment.”

Mom looks up at me with a mix of fear, disappointment, and…concern. Whether that concern is for her safety or for me, it doesn’t matter. I turn away from her, I can’t look at her after everything I’ve done.
379Please respect copyright.PENANAS56TFhWhbw

Nell: “You two set the table while I cook us a nice dinner.”
379Please respect copyright.PENANAULYGAYJqW2
379Please respect copyright.PENANAoAd3faWamL
We went about our tasks without saying much. The atmosphere was serious and thick with tension. Only Alyson wasn’t affected. She’s really put in the effort to make this a family dinner.
379Please respect copyright.PENANAf7dlsghHtW
379Please respect copyright.PENANAvhEDjUjVKC
I can’t dwell on it too much. I want to put my best foot forward too, regardless of the outcome. Eventually, we finished our tasks. Mom’s on one side while me and Alyson sit across from her. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAsN8xWXp5mR
379Please respect copyright.PENANABMtJ4XIh2Y
379Please respect copyright.PENANA8FcizQD18f
The food was steaming in front of us, ready to be eaten. But no one dug in yet, we didn’t know where we should begin. Serious talk or should we eat first?
379Please respect copyright.PENANA5U7AzSWPUB
379Please respect copyright.PENANAOcoGuVbOrZ
Alyson: “Let’s not let this food go to waste. It’s Nell’s cooking after all, it would be a crime to waste it.”
379Please respect copyright.PENANAbz5umPh0Vw

379Please respect copyright.PENANAcrbHULgrAr
For the next 10 minutes, the light of our flight slowly returned to normal. No, back to where Alyson and I were friends. When we were kids and didn’t have so many problems. The desire for success and the burden of weakness.
379Please respect copyright.PENANAeZ4418D1o6
379Please respect copyright.PENANAYUgSHCpK7L
But that weakness, I’ve outgrown it thanks to Arc. If Alyson can be less worried about her image then maybe everything will be okay.
379Please respect copyright.PENANAj3iRU3Gb9I
379Please respect copyright.PENANApAVHvmHQzL
So we talked and we laughed. Those 10 minutes nearly brought me to tears. I didn’t want it to end. But as the time for the meteor shower approaches, the tension returned. It’s time for everything to be revealed for the 3rd time.
