Well This Is Awkward

As Vera hurried and rushed down the street, those dark mysterious eyes followed her every move.

"Look at her, she's grown up so beautifully and well" he said to himself. Those big hazel brown innocent eyes that you could just drown in in from staring to long. And the way her bronzed caramel skin glowed under the dim New York street lights, how could he not stare. Soon he thought, soon the wait will be over. It's been ten long years of her absence in his dark life. Ten long years of agony making sure he was worthy of her. Not there yet but soon, soon his little white crow would be once again by his side

........,...................

Just as Vera walked through the store door, a series of sneezes over came her.

Somebody must be talking about me she instantly thought. Seeing Ms, Jen about to close the register snapped her out her thoughts.

"Ms. Jen!!!!! Stop!!!!! Don't close the register I need mom's wine!!!"

"Well tickle me feathers, if it isn't little miss Vera charm"

"Ms. Jen I am not little any more, I'm even taller than you now" Vera said with an eye roll

"My dear, when you are as old as I, everybody looks like little babies to you" Ms. Jen chuckled

"Oh come on Ms. Jen, your're hardly over 50" Vera said in disbelief

"Ha! Try almost 50 something centuries"

"Ms. Jen enough with the age jokes you still a spring chicken"

"yes...a joke it was"

"But enough of that, sorry for running late I was uhm, uh caught up"

More like attacked by a bird Vera thought.

"It's okay darling, the usual, Whistling Arrow for Your lovely mother?"

"Yes, and thank you! And please don't ever let my mother hear you say that it will go straight to her head"

"Hahah , very well child now run along, it's getting late don't want you to run into anymore crows"

"Will do Ms. Jen close up safely"

Almost halfway home it dawned on Vera ..... she never told her about the weird crow..... whatever she needed to get home before her mom.

......................

Ah crap mom's car out front, oh well at least dinners done.

"Mom I hom...."

"No! I will not accept this!!LEAVE!"

"My lady , Master Will has kept her under the radar for as long as he could, whether you like it or not the signs has started to show!" the mysterious man said with urgency

"Sar I ..."

"Mom.....what's going on" I said worriedly, I never saw mom this distressed before

"Ver bear?!"

"Lady Vera?!"

"Lady? What the f... fadoodle cakes, and why the H. E. double hockey stick is he kneeling!?..... Mom!" I said looking to her for answers.

"uh wha... Why are you late, do you have any idea what time it is?" She said trying to change the conversation.

"Very funny mom spill what's going on and who is he? OMG! Is he like your boy toy and y'all both into like some weird kink stuff!? I mean I won't judge bu"

"VERA! STOP! Nothing's going on ... h-he's nobody"

"Liar your eye is twitching and your fiddling with your fingers, I'm serious I'm not judging you"

"Lady Vera, if I may cut in I am Sar, a loyal servant of your father"

"A Servant? Like a butler? ....I don't understand. And what do you mean my father, he's dead... Mom?" I said again looking to her once again for answers.

"Most certainly not! Master is very mu..."

"Sar, that's enough! It's time you leave it's best I be the one to tell her everything. "

"Very well M'lady"

POof

As in actual poof, vanish into thin air, gone, like seriously gone.... leaving some weird smoke that I'm more than certain was not good for the ozone layer.

"Mom... does any of this have anything to do with him vanishing into black smoke because I'm totally fine with just acting like this never happen" They say choose your battles wisely, and this seemed like the perfect time to just ignore and mind my business .

It's official, I'm losing my mind. It's okay the first step is acceptance.....My name is Vera Charm and I am crazy, I approve of this message. First the bird "Vera" I was talking to a freaking bird. Now I'm hallucinating.

"Vera Charm!"

"Huh what!? Oh sorry I mean yes?" I said snapping out my thoughts

"Eat and shower then meet me in my office, we have a lot to discuss"

"Uhm you know what" insert dramatic yawn " I am beat, I'm gonna just you know, head to bed early, so yeah see you " I said as i tried to easily dismiss the crazy situation

"Vera I said what I said, would you like me to repeat myself"

"No ma'am heard you loud a clear" Its a lot of things i can get away with, but if the mama bear say something about repeating herself, even if you didn't hear what she said , you better act like you heard every word crystal clear.

My mom may be easy going but when she gets serious she like this scary little devil .

......................

Saying I'm a nervous wreck would be an understatement. I can't even think of a word to even describe how I'm feeling right now. I mean who doesn't get scared when somebody says they have to talk to you, NOBODY!!!

Kind of explains why I been standing in the shower way longer then normal. I'm just so scared, I feel as if everything is going to change and that butler dude was talking about my dad, who was supposedly dead. Let's not forget that creepy weird stuff the butler guy did, that poofy smoke stuff

I square to bob this better not turn out to be like some hidden secret life crap.

"Ha! as if, i really read way to many books"
