Who's this fat bitch-
The worst comments opened up, a stream of writing filling her eyes. And then to her utter surprise the words vanished.
Access denied. Message history deleted.
"Sakura?"
Kate messaged
There was no reply. Which was bullshit.
'No Kate'. Said a voice in her mind. 'She could just be busy.'
But then who turned off the comments?
Automatic?
No. Because it would not have started in the first place.
Kate stiffened, sat up and looked at the others, they were all so busy. She had learned hard lessons on her modulations since the moment she was old enough to get them.
"Maddy?"
She tried.
"Hello?"
Maddy messaged back.
Kate hesitated suddenly realizing what exactly she was doing. What was the point of even looking for whatever she was looking for? But now she had Maddy's attention. She was talking to Maddy. The girl she'd met for a moment.
"Did you clear the group comments?"
Kate asked.
"The group comments are cleared?"
Maddy said.
"No never mind. I think I misread something. There they are."
Kate lied.
"You misread something. On the system."
The text didn't have a tone but not only could Kate hear it she could taste it! At some point Kate had tripped, fallen and become pathetic.
"Yeah, I dunno, I guess my head still isn't right. Ha"
Oh no! Kate's brain screamed. The brain department was on fire. There was panicked screaming, smoke making Kate's eyes water.
"You still have issues with your head after that hit? I'm gonna kick Roscoe's ass. That limey shit didn't have to do all that."
Maddy yelled in text'anese.
"He did, it was a part of the game, but no. That's not the point. I meant I was groggy. I was asleep."
Kate said.
"Oh we know about that. But that was at least an hour ago."
Kate had questions. Many were about privacy. But she swallowed them down. Kate was trying to brush such a kind woman off. Why? And that Roscoe comment hadn't been brushed off no matter how she tried to play it smooth.
"I took a micro nap just a second ago"
"A micro nap, you can actually do that? You have to teach me. Those military manuals never seem to say enough. It's like it's just there for showing off."
Huh. Maddy had not been so talkative before. But Kate was behind schedule, she was clearly on a mission to cut herself to pieces and there was Maddy, smothering Kate in the very bandages she'd been trying to avoid.
Clearly micro napping was another thing Mother and the Cousins had implanted into the family that didn't need to exist.
There were clearly better lessons that normal boys and girls had learned and shared by being human.
"You need at least two people and I promise you'll hate me by the time you start getting used to it and I promise you'll try to kill me. You won't mean to, but you'll try to pull my head off my shoulders at least once."
What was that Kay!!!!?! What the hell was that?!
