way you guys did. So please explain yourselves. Why are we all here?” C-dog
says with a single tear on his face. I hug him toensure that i'm not mad at him.
She explains herself first, “I never meant for usto get separated that day. I've
thought about it everyday since the incident. I justdidn’t know how to reach you
guys. But once you turned 18 your names were on theinternet and I found out
you were still here.” She pauses to cry. We don'teven believe her pity tears. So
we try hard not to laugh. “The morning of both ofyour birthdays, I caught Carl in
traffic and asked him if he had seen you guys or yourdad. He didn’t even
acknowledge me. But I offered him something in return.So he told me about
Carlos and how he died.” She finished. She didn’treally say much, but I had
nowhere to be, so I just continued eating my ice cream.“And you?” C-dog says
to Carlos. He answered pitifully, “Come on guys. Ijust want us to be a family
again.” I choke on my banana., “A what? And A who? We will never be family
and we never were. What do you mean “again”?” I saywith anger. “Come on
guys, your father’s right.” Re’Aisio says. We alllaugh. “She said a father. What's
a father?” Me and C-dog joke rhetorically. “You knowwe're the only ones who
can help eachother out with our powers, right?” Re’Aisostates and looks at Key.
Key looks up at her. “Umm, what powers? Key doesn’t-”I try to elaborate. “I do.
I've always been able to see Lylot. I've always beenable to see Vail. Right now I
can even see Carlos floating around. At your partyI had to play it off so that he
wouldn’t mess with me. But all this time I've hadmany abilities.” Key said well
spoken. She shut me up real quick. But I should alsofeel betrayed. Carl looks at
her in shock and hugs her. I hugged her too.
