Chapter 21: Lily and Shea
After, Glass had won this time no question why she was rank one nor challenged her seat. But the Challenges went on until sundown.
Ferlin had a tradition that its top five per incoming Class become the student council (Representative) for that Class. As such Glass becomes part of the student Council but this time as the President. The student Council per Class lives in a separate dorm called the Student Council Dorms. Being the President, her room was extremely lavish.
Glass sat down and on the door before she heard a knock on her door and opened it to find Clarity there.
"Come in"
Clarity walked in and Glass closed the door.
Snap, everything seemed like it had frozen as the area then started to have creaks and the fountain room appeared. Glass who once was standing now become Mana once again.
Mana hugged Clarity tightly, with a cheesy smile. "it's been Awhile Clare"
"Same to you to Grandmother"
"Have your travels been good? Have talked to Any of your Aunts and Uncles? Are you eating well?" Mana asked all sorts of questions when she left Clarity go.
"Please, One question at a time Grandmother" Clarity.
"No thank you. I rarely Get to see your Cousins as is" Mana pouted "Only when Sunflower holds family reunions is when I see all of you. None of can afford to visit me these last few centuries. I fell so alone"
"Well, they can't help it everyone gets busy"
"Or Lazy"
"Are you going to get back together with Grandfather?"
"No." Mana said Immediately
"But…."
"No, I'm am not some poor soul that will cling onto One man for my entire Immortality. Besides, I spent more than enough lifetimes with him"
"Grandfather may not think so"
"Who care's what he thinks. He's nothing but a mortal who won't remember all our lifetimes together"
"Do you Think so?"
"Of course,"
"…. Mother would say otherwise"
"And why would she say that"
"Mother thinks you're running away from"
Mana looked away from her granddaughter, but clearly, she hit a truth.
"I'm not running away, not at..at all"
Clarity's soon became condescending "Is that so, then you won't try to get with him again as Glass"
"NO!"
"Are you sure, you certainly didn't look it when that Dorothy girl claimed she was his fiancée. I think you where cursing her on the inside"
"Stop It! I'm not! I'm not" Mana Fumed at her granddaughter. Clarity was still smiling before it dropped at the person behind her grandmother.
"Lily" Mana didn't even have to look behind her before she called her daughter's name. She slightly turned to see the white-haired and eyed women that seemed similar to Glass.
Her eyes where empty along with her expressionless face.
"Grandmother I am here as well" Said the young girl behind Lily who had the same eye color as Lily but with Pinkish hair like Tulips.
"Ah! Shea" Mana said happily trying to ignore the blank gaze of her daughter.
Clarity shivered at this cold-hearted Aunt of hers before her cousin ran up to her in a light-hearted hug.
"Shea pleased don't squeeze to hard. Your smothering me"
"Ohms! Sorry" she said with a teasing smile.
"You know Lily, I'm umm… Transversing again…I just you know wanted to…" Mana trailed off as she tried to explain herself. Lily still showed no expression no expression nor did she say a word. Before she walked out of the room out of the fountain room.
"Mother's upset that you're messing around again," Shea said to Mana
"I know."
"You always cause imbalances in the worlds you visited without care."
"…"
"Mother than has to work even hard then she already does, just to make sure you don't destroy things."
"…"
"It's such a problem to"
"Shea, I think you should stop," Clarity said as she looked at her Grandmother's Teary Face
"Opps! My bad Grandmother" Shea said still smiling "Mother has been dealing with Uncle Amaryllis lately, so she is a bit heated." Shea giggled
"Is heated the right word" Shea wandered out loud. "Displeased is more like it Yes" Shea giggled again before she left the fountain area to followed her mother out.
Mana looked at her remaining Granddaughter "Let's go back"
