Chapter 67 : See you soon darling.

Peach raised her legs high as she looked up at the ceiling, " I can't believe you're already on your way to Caynuta ". Calliope laughed heartily, making Peach even happier " Of course darling. Then I'll stop by at your school, meet your new friends and then head to Rafid ".

Peach pouted slightly, " How do you know I've got friends "? Calliope sighed, " Don't get me wrong darling but you're not the most outgoing of people, I'm sure you got more than a few pushes from some people, right "?

Peach found herself nodding and Kofi suddenly barged into her room with a slightly disappointed smile, " Oh! You're already awake ". She suddenly clapped her hands, jumping on to the bed " I guess that's good. You'll never guess what just happened "?

Peach looked at the ceiling as she went up with the pillows, " What happened Fifi "? She could hear an excited squeal from her mother, " Is that one of them? Put me on video, let me see her ".

Kofi put her ear to the other side of the phone and mouthed, " Who's that "? Peach sighed, raising her phone high " My mother ". Kofi frowned slightly as she looked up [ What's a mother? ]

Peach suddenly raised her phone up high and Calliope's face could be seen. Kofi looked between the phone and Peach [ She must be mother ] " Wow. You guys look so alike but you're so different ". Calliope laughed as she pushed her sunglasses down, " Aren't you sweet "?

Kofi licked her wrist and nodded, " Yeah, I've got some of Chase's sweet sauce still on me ". Calliope nodded, looking at Peach " And she's funny too. Definitely a keeper ".

Peach laughed, glancing at Kofi [ She's a killing machine ] " Aren't I the luckiest? What about dad "? Calliope's smile suddenly dropped as she put her glasses back up, " Are you trying to ruin my good mood darling "?

Peach pursed her lips, slightly disappointed " No mom ". Calliope nodded, " That's what I thought.....and no I didn't. If your father calls, we didn't communicate with each other ".

She nodded silently, " Of course mother ". Calliope frowned, " Does it upset you that much my darling? You should be used to this by now ". Peach pouted slightly, " I'm not upset ".

Calliope raised an eyebrow doubtfully,," That's not true. You only call me mother when you're upset and or disappointed in me or something I've done ".

Peach glanced at Kofi who seemed to be in a daze next to her [ Should we be having this conversation in front of her? ] " I'm not upset or disappointed mom ". Calliope suddenly beamed, " The red head is good for you. What was her name again "?

Peach smiled slightly, " Kofi. Kofi Flinn ". Calliope nodded, " Alright, darling. I'll remember the name. I have to go now, flight about to start. Kisses ". Peach waved with a smile, " Have fun in Caynuta. Kisses ".

Peach put her hands and phone on her stomach, still looking at the ceiling [ This isn't gonna be any easier than I thought it would be ] Kofi suddenly sat up and looked at her, " What is it like to have a mother? Explain the emotion to me".

Peach sat up slowly, surprised by the serious curiosity in her voice " Why do you suddenly ask "? Kofi tilted her head to the side, " I do not remember ever having this person called a mother. So explain ".

Peach was dumbstruck, she didn't know what to say [ Should I apologize? Why am I apologizing? But if I don't, does that make me mean and insensitive? What do I even say? ]

Just then, there was a knock on the door and a drowsy Dylan came in. Peach instantly beamed [ I'm saved ] as she jumped off her bed and Dylan pointed out to the hallway " I need one of you to open the door, someone's being knocking nonstop ".

Chase suddenly popped in, looking both worried and confused " Yeah, and he looks a lot like Leonardo Evergreen ". Peach suddenly paused and looked at Kofi sternly, " Kofi "?

Kofi laughed nervously, still in the bed as she scratched the back of her head " You'll never not guess what I was in here to tell you in the first place ".
