Part 2: Papa?
Emma's P.O.V.
Mommy and daddy looked scared and sad when miss Alya told them what happened. But I only know that papa was hurt. What's a car crash and death on arrival?
Mommy was crying and daddy was too. If papa was hurt I should kiss it better. That's what mommy does to me when I got hurt.
I pulled daddy's shirt and his eyes looked at me weirdly.
"Dada? Momma?"
He hugged me and I felt my back getting wet. Why are they crying? And why is Miss Alya calling Mr Nino?
(Sorry that's all for Emma's point of view as I was running out of ideas and the fact that it's 11:15 in the night, I'm not functioning well.)
Chloe's P.O.V.
"Are you sure you got the job done?", I asked the hooded guy.
He nodded, "yes ma'am, our deal?"
Rolling my eyes, I gave him the bag filled with his orders. "Now remember, if you ever get caught, my name is Poppy Hethers and that's all you know. Got it?!"
He nodded and took the bag. "The money?"
"In your bank. Does your wife know of your business with me?"
He shook his head, "no, I love my wife and I refuse to let her be apart of this."
I scoffed, "the Akumas will shape her up! Just know that my Lila and I are close to the boss, so if you dare cross me, I'll make you regret it."
He nodded and practically ran off.
What a wimp!
Speaking of my Lila, I wonder how she is? Better call her to let her know about the deed, and then we'll be....celebrating. I better get going!
Adrien's P.O.V.
A week later~
The funeral was quiet....too quiet. Those who cried couldn't cry anymore. Caleb was a great friend and father. He had a kind heart. I remember a conversation with my mom before.
*Flashback*
"Mom? Why do the best people have to go to heaven early?", my five years old self asked her.
She smiled, "beauty is within and when you are kind to others, it will show. So when you go out to the garden which flowers would you pick?"
"The pretty ones.", I answered.
She brushed my hair, "we're like flowers Adrien, some are beautiful to look, but are dangerous, and some are pretty but fades too soon. No one can escape death. It will get you one day. And that day is when you are surrounded by your grandchildren and kids."
"Does everyone go away like that?"
She shook her head, "no, but I hope when your calling is coming, you'll go like that."
"Je t'aime mère pour toujours."
"Je t'aime mon fils."
*End of Flashback*
I was brought out of my memories by Marinette who transferred Emma into my arms.
"I think she knows what's happening."
Emma did look sad, an expression that looks foreign to us. She's usually a happy child. Now, she's just this sad little girl with a frown instead of a cheerful smile. When she saw Caleb in his.....bed, she must've knew.
"Oh! Nooo! Caleb! My hubby wobby! Who could do this to you?! I'll make them pay my snuckums!", Chloe cried.
Winter stood behind her. Her face unreadable. It wasn't a secret that she loved Caleb and to think that he's gone before she could tell him. And then there was Chloe who was shouting out on what a wonderful fiancé he had been and that she had been his perfect fiancée.
"Aa..and when he gets home, he w-would shower m-me with jewelry! Money was never a problem a-and now I'm alone! H-he was perfect, always letting me do what I want.", Chloe cried her 'speech' out.
We each took a turn with our speech. First Mari then me and lastly Winter. But Chloe had other ideas in mind.
"You!", she pointed at Winter. "You are not invited here! You scarlet woman!"
"Excuse Me?"
"Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about! You tried everyday to seduce my poor Caleb and now that he's gone, you expect to be here in his wake? You're not welcome here!", she ranted.
"Chloe", I said softly." Don't cause a scene."
But of course she already did.
"Not now! Adrihoney!"
Winter raised an eyebrow, "Adrihoney? Last I checked, he hated you."
Chloe waved her hand as if to dismiss the thought,"oh please! You and Maritrash here could get along well. W***e to w***e talk."
Mari covered Emma's ears.
"And give me back my child you home wrecker!"
I slapped Chloe and gasps were heard.
"Enough is enough Miss Bourgeois", I said in a low voice. "You have gone way too far. If I know Caleb, and I do, he would've been happy where he is. Far away from you."
I took Emma again and led her and Mari away.
Winter's P.O.V.
"Look at what you did.", I said quietly.
"At what I did ?!"
My glare made her step back, "yes you. I don't care that you insult me by calling me with words to describe yourself, but I will do everything in my power to make sure Emma won't land in your care. God knows what could happen to her."
I walked out with my cloak flowing in the wind. Dramatic, I know. But Caleb bought me this cloak after my obsession with Harry Potter.
