As My Heart Dies-Chp58

[the nxt morning, everyone was at the hotel restaurant having breakfast, all except Wander]

Peepers: [noticed him missing] Where's the furball at?

Hater: :(

Sylvia: Couldn't get him to budge out of bed...

Peepers: [saw the look on Hater n knew right away] U told him, didn't u? Abt ur "cold"?

Hater: ... Yes.

Sylvia: :(

Peepers: N I'm guessing he didn't take it too well. Wat did he say?

Hater: Nothing...just left and... :( (buried his face in his hands)

Peepers: Oh sir... [patted his shoulder in comfort, looking sadly at Sylvia n Brad]

Brad: :(

Sylvia: (sighed sadly)

Hater: What do I do now...?

Peepers: I don't know, bt at least u finally told him the truth n didn't drag it till it was too la-- [sees Wander coming over] Wander, hey! Good morning

Wander: [doesn't reply as he sat at the table n scooped some food onto his plate to eat, his eyes looked a little puffy from crying n a little dark from lack of sleep]

Sylvia: Hey, buddy... everything okay? You doing alright?

Wander: [just nodded quietly n ate]

Peepers: So, umm, we've got our new ship. Wat shall we do now? Any place u guys wanna go? [tries to lighten the mood]

Hater: :(

Brad: (felt awkward)

Sylvia: (petted Wander's back)

Wander: [ate quietly for a moment, then spoke quietly] We're going to Planet Janet

Peepers: Excuse me?

Wander: We're going bk to my home, at Planet Janet, n I want to recruit my dad to join the war. Grimm needs all the help he can get, n it's about time my dad got out of the house n stretched his legs

Hater: ...Are...are you sure...?

Wander: Yes, I'm sure [not looking at him in the eye] Grimm is going to war with that mean peacock lady, n he needs our help, n we can't wait for him to ask us for help especially wen he needs it the most [his voice was almost all business-like]

Sylvia: Wander...

Hater: :(

Peepers: OK, we'll go first thing after breakfast then

Wander: [nodded] I'm gonna call my dad to give him a heads-up tht we're coming [finished the last of his food n left the table]

Hater: ...He's mad with me. I just know it.

Sylvia: But he'll forgive you eventually...

Peepers: Yeah, he just needs time to process this, is all. At least he's not throwing a fit or ran off or anything, right?

Hater: Guess not...

Peepers: Right, lets finish up breakfast n then we can start getting started on the new ship n go to... Planet Janet, was it, Sylvia?

Sylvia: (nod) Mhm. That's her.

Peepers: Her? U talk like that planet is alive :|

Sylvia: She is, actually. (nod)

Brad: Huh, that's new for me.

Peepers: Interesting (think)

[Soon they were all set n ready, sitting in their new ship n made their way towards the direction of Planet Janet]

Hater: (glanced at Wander) :(

Wander: [doesn't turn to face him, or even look at him in the eye for that matter, or even talk to him unless necessary, in favour of hanging out with Sylvia or Brad]

Sylvia: & Brad: (at each other) :(
