23- Cecile

After going down stairs for what it felt like 40 minutes. I've managed to finally reach the base of the apartment complex Mildred is living. Seeing how mundane and... normal everything looks from here makes it feel even more strange that she has such a luxury apartment. Seeing it from outside the building is even more strange since I can clearly see there is no space for even half of that room. I'm starting to think that she didn't teleport us to an apartment of this building but to another totally separated building, and that means.... She let me to go down stairs for that long and there wasn't a need for it...

Why am I still considering going somewhere with her?, perhaps I'm just so tired and my brain so numb that everything sounds like a good idea no matter what. Perhaps is just that she reminds me a bit of- Oh, a message.

Weird, I didn't give her my phone number... did I?.

-----------------

Hi there.

----------------

A-ALAN!.

Wait, no, I shouldn't be excited, most likely he will just tell me I'm formally fired now...

------------------------------------

-What do you want?.

-Oh... sorry, I know you're mad with all of this but trust me neither me or Faraday wanted all of this to happen. In fact, I think that bitch doesn't want that either.

-She fired to assure herself they're making any progress. I think she really wants this.

-That is the thing, she didn't fire you. She was just absolutely mad you even speaked to her in that tone.

-So what?! am I supposed to just let her talk to me like that and be treated like a goddamn dog?!.

-No, trust me, You did the right thing, even I have been telling her that I had enough with her shit.

-Good, is it working?

-Well.... not really but at least she gave Faraday her bed again.

-Wait what?!, what did she do to Faraday?!.

-I... well this is hard to say but, she has been torturing her ever since you left.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My heart skips a beat, I almost feel like throwing up. My anger is unimaginable. I wrongly deposit all of it into Alan.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-And may I know why you didn't do anything to stop her?!. you let her hurt Faraday didn't you?!.

-I.... did, I was too scared to do anything against her but at the end I finally managed to stand my ground and stop her... kinda.

-Alan tell me what happened, with details, NOW.

-You left, Gustave was angry she used that anger in faraday, she was, well, I think she crushed her organs.

-What?!.

-She was screaming a lot, but at the end she managed to regenerate completely. She is... well fine but she is really scared of Gustave now.

-Why the the hell did she do that?

-Just to spend her anger in someone I guess.

-What the fuck is wrong with that woman?!

-Everything.

After that she went outside of the room and talked to me.

She told me that Faraday didn't need all of that "luxury" so she took it all away next morning.

-What do you mean by took?.

-I mean she grabbed everything with some mind powers and literally threw them across the rooms.

I think everything is locked in some random room in the facility.

it's not where she is staying that is for sure.

-She is staying in the facility?.

-Yep, fancy house and everything.

-Oh for the love of god...

-Yeah, I know.

She is really making herself feel comfy here, like she wants this to be permanent, but she did say her orders were to just stay here for 1 week, then she would leave.

-Well then I hope she leaves in that week, otherwise I am not sure I want to come back.

-Cecile.

-What?.

-We want you to come back

I

And especially Faraday.

She misses you.

A lot.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I once again feel an ache in my heart, now it's not due to anger or sorrow but deep sadness, despite me not being good with relationships with other people, despite me usually not caring about someone else but me... something inside me really doesn't want to hear that faraday is sad, even less that she misses me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-How is she?.

-Well, she could be better, she is scared of Gustave, obviously, and she is a little bored since she can't do anything but lay on the ground to pass the time.

-Can you be with her?.

-Occasionally, mostly when Gustave leaves me alone and not doing 3 months of paperwork in a single day.

-Is the torture still going?.

-Not in a regular basis, she comes to feed once a day and it depends if she is in a good mood or not, I think when she is not angry it's mostly just verbal abuse, I thought it would be like that everyday but today she tortured Faraday again.

-Oh my god is she alright?!.

-Yes, she fully healed.

We had a little discussion with Gustave and Faraday stepped up to defend me, that was the consequence.

-Poor girl...

-I really felt proud when she did, and she saved me big time, however I hope she doesn't do it again, she will be hurt again.

-Did you gave her anything for the pain?.

-The moment Gustave ran out I went to ask faraday if she needed something, she just said "waffles".

-Oh....

Did you gave them to her?.

-Well she deserved a treat after everything that has been going on. Of course I gave them to her.

-I'm glad to hear that, she really does deserve it.

-And... well.

Unfortunately she can't use forks.

Or plates.

Or anything.

So she just had to eat them with her hands.

-Oh

-I took a picture, do you wanna see it?.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

no

yes

no

no

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Sure.

-Here, take a look.

*Refer to the picture in last chapter comments*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why the hell is she so GODDAMN CUTE?!.

And why does she look so... tiny? it was the same when I took that picture of her with the flash...

Is she....

Does she have an illusory effect when somebody takes a picture of her?.

I must test this out when I get back. (Totally just not wanting more Faraday pics)

When I get back...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Cecile you still there?.

-Yes.

Alan.

Am I coming back?.

- As far as I know, yes, you will, as to when... well, that is hard to know, most likely next week, and that is IF Gustave leaves.

But rest assure that if anything bad happens I'll be sure to report it to the higher ups, surely they will grow kind to you.

Meanwhile.

Takes this as some sort of vacations.

Last time I saw you you really needed some rest, this is the perfect opportunity.

And your payments come from my own pockets so I can still pay you even if your not officially in the job.

-Well.

I'm glad you communicated with me, it makes me feel much comfortable now, I was really worried this was over you know.

-It's not, trust me dear.

Now please take a rest.

And.

Sorry for the last days, it won't happen again.

If anything happens I'll be sure to contact you.

-Thanks Alan, I appreciate it, Good night.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was feeling terrible all of these days, I feel quite better now, knowing that they didn't forget about me, specially Faraday, I was extremely worried about her. And even now I still am. She has to live in those kind of conditions when she doesn't deserve any of this.

But at least I'm glad she can endure all of that, but I hope she doesn't have to do it for much longer.

*Cecile opens her gallery*

...

She still looks cute even in this situations...

Hi there another chapter, sorry for the delay, I'm mostly addicted to playing MH rise, please send help.

jokes aside I hope you enjoyed this chapter. next one will finally move on from this day in the timeline (since this one is still the same night Cecile went to Mildred's house.)

if you noted I used different spacing between some lines of dialog, that was to give the impression of them being messages in an app.

I hope I didn't make it more confusing (⁠*⁠﹏⁠*⁠;⁠)
