Chapter 6 6

She wasn't listening in, did she?!

"After you went with him, I came looking for you. Are you two dat? "I asked abruptly, cutting her short by waving my hands in the air.

"Let's get some food. If you miss it because of me, that's not right." I dragged her along quickly since I didn't want to bring up Keiran's name.

**After Class**

Sky's help in healing Daphne's mother was much more stressful and unpleasant than acquiring Daphne's address without her knowing.

What if he didn't want to help me and told our parents anyway?

A gentle spirit, Sky. He's the polar opposite of Jared, but he may suddenly become overbearing with his demands.

Okay, I guess I'll give it a shot. Since he had spent the entire evening playing video games with his pals, I decided to talk to him after dinner.

I found him in his room, sorting through his comic book library.

"Sky, I have this friend...." I looked up and immediately had a book thrown in my face.

"Ouch!" I cried out as I wiped my nose.

"You scared me!" He screamed and ran over to me.

I mean, come on! He wouldn't have used a book to try to hurt me if I were a monster, would he?

Although it was painful, I persisted in making my plea. I blame his book for the current colour of my nose.

The moment his palm touched my nose, the anguish evaporated.

"Well, thanks." While still rubbing my nose, I blurted.

I paused for a time to examine his quarters. They were quite neat and well put together. Good. To have his room cleaned up, I doubt his mother would go looking for him.

"What do you require, then? Where are you going? "He folded his arm as he questioned us.

"You see, I have this one pal. Illness has struck her mother." I need you to aid in her recovery. I was the one who responded.

"Human or werewolf?" He seemed very contemplative inquiring.

"Human." He sighed after I answered.

"Okay, but I just can't pull it off tonight. Sadly, Mrs. Darfield has assigned me two readings for next week. To avoid looking like a complete idiot, I need to get ready." I let out a sigh of relief at what he stated.

"It's no sweat. I wasn't planning on having fun tonight. I really should go to sleep. What a terrible start to the semester." Took a deep breath in.

As I turned to leave, I collided with my mother.
