《Past Is The Past [Finished]》A Talk
Advertisement
Ms. Tina's POV
I left the girls shopping and went home. Those girls are a mess. I love having my baby back home and she's like she was before the divorce. Happy and laughing and messing with her sisters.
After the divorce it's like she didn't even laugh any more. I feel like that time in the detention facility was good for her but her father and myself still have to talk to her. I decided to watch some TV until it was time to go to dinner.
"Mama!" I heard.
I got up and went in the living room. I saw Kelly and Michelle with Angel and Leon. I looked at them and something wasn't right.
"Angel, come here." I said.
She stood in front of me and I examined her. I lifted her shirt. Good no belly piercing. I looked at her face.
"Pull your hair back?" I said.
"Why?" She asked.
I raised my eye and she did it. Damn, I'm good.
"Who signed off on this piercing because I didn't." I said.
She looked over at Kelly and Michelle and they found something to look at outside the window.
"I should make you take it out." I said going into the kitchen.
"No, please can I keep it." She said right on my heels.
I just rolled my eyes and got a water. I shook my head.
"Don't get another one or I'm taking it out myself." I said.
"Oh, thank you." She said hugging me.
We walked back in the living room and Leon was on the couch watching TV with Kelly and Michelle.
"Leon, what are you doing here?" I asked.
"My best friend just came home so we have a lot to catch up on." He said. "Plus, I thought I was going to dinner too."

"Who invited you?" Kelly asked.
"My best friend." He said sticking his tongue out at her.
Kelly stuck her tongue out too. I heard someone knock on the door and went to answer it. I opened it and it was Matthew.
"Hey." I said.
"Hey." He said.
I closed the door.
"I think we should talk to her now." I said.
We walked in the living room.
"Angel, follow me." I said.
"Why?" She looked confused.
"Just come on. We want to talk to you." I said.
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh." Kelly, Michelle and Leon said.
I shot them a look and they shut that down fast. Angel got up and followed us into the room. She sat on the bed Indian style and was just waiting. I looked at Matthew.
"Well Angel, now that your home your gonna have to follow some rules." He said. "We do know that your sixteen now and want to be with your friends and still have fun because its summer but you have to follow the rules."
"Uhm, Daddy, Bey wanted me to come on tour with her to help assist." She said.
"Isn't Angie her assistant?" He asked.
"Yeah but she says you can never have too many or something. Plus she's gonna pay me so I won't just be laying around doing nothing the whole summer." She said.
"I don't know if you assisting is a good idea." I said.
"What? Why? It can't be that hard." She said.
"This is your sister and when you’re working she can't be your sister. Just because she may get on your nerves you can't just stop your job." I said.
"I can do it." She said.
"We'll see." I said.

"Well was that it?" She asked.
"We thought you were gonna stay with your dad this summer but I guess not." I said.
"So can I go?" She asked.
"Not quit." I said.
"You don't have any connections with those kids do you?" Matthew asked.
"No daddy, I don't and I don't plan to." She said. "I learned my lesson and I'm not going back."
"Okay." We said.
She got up and left and it was just me and Matthew.
"How you feel?" I asked.
"I'm okay, I'm kind of happy she'll be with y'all this summer. She might have just be running around with me." He said.
"Yeah, but I'm still watching her." I said.
We went back in the living room and Solange was in there sitting next to Angel. These are the things I can get used to. Seeing all my girls together, oh and Leon too.
*************
"Oh my god, where is Bey?" Angel asked.
We were seated in the restaurant ten minutes ago and Bey and Shawn are not here yet.
"Calm down, be patient." Solange said.
I had to put on my glasses to read the menu. As I was reading the menu Shawn and Bey arrived with Blue and Jeulz. They sat down and the waiter came and we ordered.
"Get out my drink." I heard from Leon.
I looked over and Angel had her straw in his drink laughing as she sipped.
"Aye." I said as I snapped my fingers.
She removed her straw and sat back.
"Mama, they laughing." Angel said.
I looked at the girls.
"Mama, we're not." Solange said.
I shook my head.
"Well on a lighter note." Shawn said. "I wanna take you to the Barclay's center."
"Cool, I do want to see it." Angel said smiling.
Seeing everyone here is beautiful. My daughter's and grandchildren. Two years was too long but this moment was priceless.

Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years.

Eventually resulting in a mass exodus of the remaining powerless humans by a coalition of gods.Now translocated to Vauthia where everyone has been given a path to power. They're met with an unfortunate reality. They've only been rescued from one dying world to be tasked with saving the new one.

When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within.

Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.
