16. REMINISCENCE.
Night had fallen and she had put her to bed. Nothing out of the ordinary had happened. They had crossed paths with Jayden only once. For the rest of the family, she had not seen them. And as she had earlier been told, she did not need to report what she did to either thee batter or the mistress of this household.
Thinking about the mistress made her body shiver. The chills she felt were yet to be determined to be fear or simple dislike. She walked to her room and leaned against the closed door. She heard the flapping of a cape but remained as she was. Felicity did not find any need in raising her head. She had been feeling some discomfort for a while but she did not know why.
A hand was placed on her head making her twitch because she was not expecting it. Feeling cold as thee person withdrew their hand, she leaned in for more. Her body acted on its own but she did not resist. The hand was warm and not as cold as everyone else’s. He wa

She only allowed herself to sleep once she had confirmed it twice.Felicity stood on an eerie piece of land. The ground had an unusual color and texture. She crouched and took a hand-full of the soils particles and let it fall back to its source slowly. The particles were black. She stood, still trying to figure out where she was. And that was when she noticed the color of he sky. It was red.A dark cone of clouds spun across the horizon, skating toward her. Along with it came a parade of dust and nature.

FELICITY. 3. OR FOR WORSE.
“Pack your bags.” Six years of not talking to her and this were the first words that came from her father’s mouth. She turned to look him in the eye demanding and answer. They had the same emerald eyes and jet black hair and it would feel like looking into a mirror. The only difference was how Felicity looked like. She was the exact height as her mother when Bruce first met her. Felicity might have gotten his eyes but they she looked at him reminded him so much of her. Her body also took after her mother. Bruce zoned out and wondered what his daughter would look like when she smiled. His eyes stung. He turned around and began leaving. It was a bad idea seeing his daughter when he had not gotten over her leaving. “Get to it.” Felicity really wanted an answer but her father, through his actions made it clear she had no say in the matter.
