You’re a good man I can trust!!!” Vera gets upset every time you seemingly try to downplay your actions. “Why are you asking me if I trust you? You don’t think I do? I’ve been candid this entire time! Honest to a fault. You know that.”
“I wanted to make sure we were on the same page.” You scratch the back of your head.
“You want to ask me something? I’ll be as open with you as humanly possible!” Vera wants to keep relying on you no matter what.
“There’s something bugging me. Are you really close enough with your aunt for these baddies to want to kidnap you?” You don’t think they’re close. “I feel like you were kidnapped for another reason.”
“I admit that it might be a stretch since I haven’t seen my great aunt in years. But can you blame me? I can’t imagine why else.” Vera is out of ideas.
“Is there anything else you can think of?” You ask her to try to jog her memory.
“There’s something else…” Primavera opens her glassy eyes. “Before I tell you, please, promise me that you will never ever tell anyone in the entire world about what I’m gonna say. You hear me? No one! NO ONE!”
You feel an enormous otherworldly presence manifesting around you… Something your sister would call an upset tummy.
