Chapter 100: Talk With Celine

I push and pull on Celine.

"Talk already."

"Fine," She knocks my hand away. "I returned to my father, told him I came to protect him, then...he spat on my face."

She says it with such a light tone, but I almost gasp upon hearing it.

"He...did that?"

"Yup," She raises her head. "But I didn't take no for an answer. I kept on demanding that he followed me."

"And he listened?"

"Mmm no, I kidnapped him when he was asleep." She smiles a soft, pain filled smile.

"I see."

"Oh come on Luna, lighten up. You're making this sound more depressing than it actually is."

I'm unable to respond, no matter how hard I try, I just stare at the cup of milk.

"Ugh!" Celine lies on the table. "See, this is why I didn't want to talk about me."

"Did...the two if you, bond...since?"

"...no, he...actually hit me on more than one occasion."

"And you let him?"

"What do you want me to do, through down my father?"
