Violet POV.
There was another commotion if today isn't my lucky day! Everyone was talking and mumbling about him coming, he's in the facility, also some of the humans, what's up with the humans, we are humans after all aren't we. One by one the nannies started to slip out, they usually stay along with us to make sure we eat our food and don't choke and die, they kept sneaking out until only one nanny was left in the dining room with us, I think I forgot to mention, there aren't many of us, maybe sixty in total, even less. We are here from the day we are born until the day we are collected at the age of eighteen, never to come back again to earth, I got two more years before no one comes to collect me. I got on my feet and started to move away toward the door, I didn't have anyone to worry about, the only nanny here was busy with one of the kids, while the others, none of them paid me any attention, we aren't friends, I don't like any of them and they don't like me back, we aren't supposed to be friends either, we'll have friends later I guess.
I made it to the door opened it, made sure no one was looking toward me, everyone was looking out of the window, one last look toward them and I took off running from there, in my staying here, I found a few ways to get away, it's not my first trial, they all were failing attempts, but not this time, I never had such a strong distraction before. The facility was made of a five-story building, the first floor is all filled with humans and administration, the second is for our classes and cafeteria, and the third and up is our rooms, nannies rooms, the therapy rooms, the one I hate the most, but also had few entertainment rooms, not that we got the time to use those much.
I knew the front door if you managed to get to it, it has sensors all over it, if I walk out they'd know, but the windows, the one that doesn't have bars on them, they are a safe bet, all the first and second-floor windows had bars, courtesy of my previous trials, but the ones in the principal window doesn't have any over it.I moved toward her office, I've been there before, way too many times, I'm not that proud about those times, but I've been there. I knew her office way too well, I made sure to look around to make sure she's not in it right now, good for me, the commotion had her busy too. I walked inside the office and went toward the window, opening the window and looking down, damn, it's a long way down, I was pep talking myself into it, I could do it, I won't die, I can do it...
I heard the door opening behind me, I was quick to go on to hide, the first place I could reach was under her desk, it's my best choice. I heard our principal, Miss Emma walk-in, she sounded worried and panicked at the same time, she was talking to someone, my nanny, I knew Rila's voice anywhere, she yells and scolds me way too many times during the day."Where's the brat! He'll be asking for her! He wants to see her!" Emma says on the verge of a breakdown.
"She's in the lunchroom, we don't have to call the president yet do we?" Rila asks making me giggle, yes oh please call the president."I already contacted the white house, they said to give him whatever he wants, it's their jurisdiction," Emma says, what are they talking about, I'm pretty sure the brat in question, is me!"Do you need me to go get her?" Rila asks."No, he wants to see her in classes, just make sure she makes it there" Emma orders, I heard the door open and close, I guess that Rila has left. I stayed hidden waiting for Emma to leave too, she was talking on the phone, cursing and walking around, I didn't want to be caught by her, not right now, not when she's in one of her moods.I heard Emma leave her office, I took my chance and ran toward the window, it's now or never, I had one leg out of the window, the other still inside, I was still worried about the whole jumping out of the window. The door got open the same moment I had my other leg out, I was sure I was going to make it, Emma can stop me no more, I'm going to escape and live my real life now!
Violet POV. "Little one!" A foreign voice says, a male voice, I ignored it and decided to jump, I let my hand go, but got caught in the last second, strong hands were grabbing mine, I was picked up by my hands and pulled back inside in the office. I didn't like that of course, I started to scream and kick, the stupid treatment was affecting my emotions, it made me feel more emotional, and that made me start to cry, I sobbed my heart out, I heard someone talk to me, but I couldn't understand them. The voices belonged to the new stranger and Emma, she was apologizing, she was worried and he was angry, while I just cried out, their fight made me feel afraid, I wanted to get away from all the noise, I'm not used to people fighting, the only fight I ever heard was the one I have with Rila every night at bedtime."Leave" the new voice say, was he talking to me if he wants me to leave, he has to let me go, he's still holding me, I tried to get out of his arms but he wasn't letting me go.
Violet POV. I went to class, I pretended as if nothing happened, I skipped the class after lunch and went straight to the one after it, I sat in the back, as usual, the teacher saw me sitting back and called me out, what's up with her. "Violet!" she says sounding shocked, yes, I didn't want to come here either. "Teacher!" I answer acting just as shocked as she is with a big smile on my face, a big fake smile.Before she could call me out again her phone started to ring, she checked the phone and just ignored me, I ignored her back, taking a nap in the class, I was dreaming about running away that I hardly slept last night, I could use the nap. I haven't given up yet, I'll try again, I just need to find a better way than the window plan, maybe I can talk Rila into taking me out for a walk in the backyard. I only woke up when the class ended, I sleepwalked toward the last class of the day, more alien classes, another chance to take another nap, Rila was there this time, she didn't l
Violet POV. "There's no ice cream here," I say ready to fight him, he lied to me and got me here and there's no ice cream. "The ice cream is on it's way Violet, why don't you sit for a bit with me?" he says sitting on the sofa, pulling me with him, I sat opposite to him, my hands crossed over my chest waiting for my ice cream. "Do you like it here Violet?" he asks. "No, I don't," I say annoyed, I hate everything about this place, about the uniform, the classes and the whole messed up system. "Really?" he asks raising a brow, is this guy really stupid? "Yes really, I never had a choice of being here, I'm alone most days, and I feel lonely and hurt. Now that we are done with the whole consulting part, when would I get my ice cream?" I ask him annoyed, it's no secret I don't like it here at all. He just looked at me, he was looking at me like he was shocked, maybe he didn't know that I don't like it here, maybe he just thought everyone here is super happy but I'm not. We stayed si
Violet POV. One of Rila's jobs is to make sure I eat dinner, but as I mentioned, she's not that good with her job, she got me the food and told me to eat, I took the first two bites, showing her I'd eat, she left me alone to eat it. I was sitting alone at the table, I didn't have any friends around here, not that any of them are friends, they are just people who sit at the same table together. I was feeling worse than before now, my heart felt like it was breaking into a million parts, although I didn't take the whole medication, the part that I did swallow have affected me. All I want right now is a big warm hug, one that I'm not going to get from anyone around here, a lone tear went down my face, I wiped it right away."Violet" I heard Rila's voice come from behind me, I was quick to wipe all signs of my tears. "Yes?" I answer her trying to sound all good. "He wants you," she says, who he is, I just walk with her, she held my trey and lead me toward another room, the same entert
Violet POV. I opened my eyes and felt warm, I don't feel warm, not ever, but this morning I did, I felt hands holding me, I felt emotionally safe, it's weird to explain, but I love this feeling of being held, of being hugged while I sleep. I don't remember how I got to bed last night, I remember Evander being in my room and that's about it, I just fell asleep while he brushed my hair. I turned myself the other way and saw him sleeping next to me, he's still dressed in the same clothes as before, he's wearing a suit, he looks like the FBI who comes by except his suit is on the higher end than the regular people. His eyes were closed, his breathing was slow and even, he looked so relaxed, but even then he still had the same dominant aura, it's like he holds so much power, even sleep can't hide it. But me being me and never having anyone who slept next to me, I was curious, I touched his face, touched his closed face, and then touched his mouth giggling now, making him smile and frown
Violet POV. I won't lie, I hoped and wanted him to come back, that night when I went to bed I wished really really hard for him to be back, to help me get dressed and for him to come and hug me again, I loved the hugs and cuddles, I can't live without hugs anymore. The bed felt colder than ever, my body felt hot and icky, and my head hurt, I didn't want to sleep alone, so I had to call someone, and so I did. "Rila...Rila...." I called out loud, she got to stay close to me, if I need her, and get in when I call her, she did come in, after few minutes. "Yes, Violet?" she asks annoyed sounding sleepy. "Can you get closer?" I ask her, trying to sit up in the bed, my head was so heavy, I couldn't sit up. "Yes, Violet, go back to sleep" she says annoyed with me, I whined wanting her to get closer to me, she's now standing next to my head. "I want a hug" I whine with tears filling my eyes, some of them escaping down to my cheeks. "A hug?" she asks confused, she touches my forehead, h
Violet POV.The doctors were fussing over me the second I got in, Emma was going mad with orders, calling them over, saying I'm running a fever, they should check my vitals, that if they lose me, they'd all lose their heads, which is stupid, they could have other girls, I'm not the only one here and no one cares about me. "Where's her nanny? Why didn't she bring her to us when her fever started?" The doctor says angry, I kept screaming until I vomited all over my clothes. He takes my clothes off, I screamed more, but he ignored me taking everything off me, and getting a hospital gown on this time, he placed a thermometer in my mouth under my tongue. Got a heart monitor on my finger, blood pressure cuff around my arm, my screams turned to whines and cries I was exhausted now. "She's so fussy," The doctor groans, I would like to see him be in my position, feeling sick, naked and getting poked and pricked here and there. "Her heart is going crazy, her fever is too high for my liking a
Evander POV. We took over earth, we could just kill them all, but we didn't do that, we aren't such barbarians like they are, we are smart creatures, we take things from every planet, we take what we need to evolve. On earth, we found love, something we never had before, but when we took the chosen humans to space they died, instead we had to get their bodies ready from childhood, but they are just stupid creatures when at such young age, too fragile to be left alone in our care. But having them as a child, that had it's own magic, we never had children before we are created adults, but to have a child was something we now craved. We didn't give the humans enough credit first, they have their ways, it's a coping mechanism for them, something they do for fun and to feel secure, but it's in their genetics, age regression, having a caregiver little relation, the human in adult body which is strong enough to live in space, but with the headspace of a little, a baby that'll never grow up
