Was I overreacting? Maybe. But that still didn't take some weight off their lie. Was that hard to tell me? Bloody not! If they had told me earlier, I wouldn't be even mad. But they didn't. I'm almost leaving for college, eighteen years old; were they even planning on telling me at all?

I don't know anymore.

I do know though, that I'm getting some answers. Not from Adrien, not from mom. But from Pryor. My dad. The only person that haven't lied to me so far. And hopefully never will because that'll be a wound never to be heal.

Ever.

All my life my parents told me I was special. That was a lie too. Because to the light of now, people still don't accept who am I. Or even understand that for some bloody reason I have a tail, fangs and cat damn ears. I didn't chose this, nor I wished to silly, stupid star to be different.

Their isn't something in this world that I wouldn't want more than to be normal. Normal at least as the world wants it. They say,
"Oh be yourself!" but then it laughs at your face and says "not like that nerd."

I take off my hoodie and pull down the turtle neck from my mouth. Then, I ring the doorbell once. It's almost one in the morning, what the hell was I thinking? Bother him at this time of the night?

But the door swings open just as I was turning to walk away.

"Going somewhere darling?" The blonde woman asked. I remember her, she was sleeping on top of Pryor that night.

"Bloody hell, did I wake you up? I'm so sorry. I'll come back in the morning" I smiled sheepishly, scratching the nape of my neck

"No need for that! We were awake anyway. Come in, come in." She hushed me inside with a smile on her face. For some reason she seem familiar, like I have seen her even before that night. But I shake that though off.

"Honey, you have a visitor!" She calls, and guides me to the kitchen.

Pryor was pouring milk into a cup of coffee, he looks up and smiles. "Manon!" He says happily and places the cup down. "Come here, give this old man hug."

I giggle. He's far from being old but who am I turn down a hug? I walk around the kitchen island and give him a hesitant hug. But he crushes me against him, "I'm so glad to see you came back."

We pull away. "Why wouldn't I?"

"Well, knowing Adrien and the news you brought him the other day; I thought he already had locked you up in a tower with a fire-breathing dragon flying around it." He grins, and I laugh.

That wouldn't surprise me from Adrien.

But then my smile vanishes.

"Hey, hey, is something wrong?" Pryor asked worried and placed a hand on my shoulder.

"I just-" I sigh and look down. Should I really ask him that?

He guides me to the living room, we sit on the couch. "It's alright. You can tell me. Is this about Adrien?"

The blonde woman comes back and hands me a cup of tea. "You look like you need it hun."

"Thank you," I tell her.

She stands next to Pryor. He looks up to her, "Chloe would you give us a minute?" He pleas  softly.

"Of course." Then, she's gone upstairs.

I bring the cup close to my lips, the warm liquid goes down my throat and kills the cold inside of me. The honey flavor is quite comforting, I wish it could take away this curiosity that has been awaken inside of me.

"Can I ask you something Pryor?"

"Anything."

"Why did you cheated on my mom?"

"I didn't cheat Manon. She did. With Adrien."
