All the monsters in you

Landorr smiled before turning back to look at her but Cleo didn't see the smile on her face because when she turned back, she was looking extremely serious.

"You should come downstairs and eat first, after that, we'll talk about it better".

I nodded and she left. I didn't know how she was able to make me want to do this even more but right now, I wanted to learn all this more than anything else. We all sat at the dining table for dinner but Miguel wasn't at the table with us.

"Where is Miguel"?

My mom stopped eating and looked at me.

Cleo's mom was very surprised that her daughter was asking about Miguel. In the past, they wouldn't see each other for months and she'd never ask but now, she didn't just look like she was asking, it looked like she actually wanted to know.

"Are you really asking about your brother"?

"Am I not allowed to ask"?

"No no, that's not what I meant... He actually... he just stepped out a few minutes before you came back, he might be back soon".
