Backyard (Chpt. 8)

"Serran, where were you?" Ray says to you. On the floor next to him is Maya, Eadgyth, and Min.

"Uh I was in my room, Rumor, Ellington, Elodie and Temptation are on their way." "Really?"

Eadgyth says excitedly. "Yeah, um mum says Chris is going to get Étienne." Her face changes

quickly to annoyance. "Why does she trust him so damn much!?" "If it wasn't for him we wouldn't

be able to know to get you out." Lucien stands with his back on the wall, his face has a hint of

annoyance as well as he speaks. She begins to speak but stops and stomps off in anger into

the garden. "Haha she's so easy to provoke." Lucien walks over to the shed. "Do any of you

know where the watering bucket is?" "Probably next to the chamomile." Min stands up and goes

to help him. "Guess we should help in the garden." Maya says while standing up and brushing

grass off her legs. "Yeah it'll be faster, we gotta go back in before 7." Ray looks at the time on

his phone. "Okay then let's go." You say while heading over to the garden. Ray and Maya follow

behind you. The garden is a well kept place, most of it is Lucien's but the rose bush mint and

chamomile is your mothers. Most of the plants your brother grows you can't even identify or

name. All you know is Lavender and Rosemary. You pick up one of your mothers watering

buckets and fill it with water from the water hose. You then proceed to water your brother's

plants. Eadgyth is just sitting on a stone slab while glaring towards Lucien. By the time you

finish watering the plants it's 6:23. "We should head in to clean ourselves up." Lucien says out

loud while putting up his bucket. Everyone nods in agreement and heads inside.
