THE UNKNOWN

[diwa]

Oh yes, hang on. I'll take them home from Neverland so that they could grow old." Clarissa snapped sarcastically. "It is easier said than done, and looked at you!" She mumbled, pressing his cheeks inwards. "Acting like a petulant man baby. Stop pouting or i'll bite that lip." Clarissa said with a warning but was actually tempted to do it eitherways. "And why me?!" She asked incredulously. "He is your dad, she is your brother's stripper. Why do I have to do it?" Clarissa raised an eyebrow as she peered down on him, "I have no relationship with them to be honest, and if we're actually talking about this, i'm just the mother of your child, nothing else, so I'm not sure why should I meddle in this affairs." She joked lightly but her face was flat serious.

 

[The Condescension]

Adrian listen to her bitch, not saying anything and just took it till she was done. "Nevermind then." He said, forcing Pudding off of him as he sat up and litterally just picked up the giant dog; Pudding freaking out a bit at first not being used to be off the ground but trusted Adrian enough. "Ima go out to eat with Pudding, later tater." He said just walking out of the room leaving her there.

 

[diwa]

"Freakin' man-child." Clarissa just rolled her eyes at him as he went out of the room. She already accepted it that Adrian really does have his moments where sometimes she wanted to clout him on the head. As the two went out of the room, Clarissa just curled beside Sage. Tempted to wake the sleeping little girl for the sake of company but she knew she'll regret it afterwards, so she ended up sleeping beside her.

 

[The Condescension]

Adrian came back after about two hours, not carrying Pudding anymore but the dog contiuned to follow him like a little baby duckling. Adrian took off his shirt and tossed it wherever before laying down on the bed, leaving just enough room for Pudding to lay next to him the bed being crowded as hell.

 

[diwa]

Clarissa was sleeping fitfully beside the little girl when she was woken up by the sudden shaking of the bed. "What the–." She looked around and found Adrian was back, Pudding was on the bed with them. She checked on Sage first, making sure she was still sleeping before glaring back at Adrian. "Seriously, what the hell Acher." she whispered angrily. Normally, their bed was more than wide and big enough for them but adding the space the little girl consumes and the giant ass dog, the Queen size bed has its limits. "If you want me to move Sage back in the nursery so that you and your dog has some space, all you have to do is say it." She added quite angrily.

 

[The Condescension]

Adrian turned his head so he was looking back at her and didn't say anything in response his mood clearly being pissy and shitty today. He sat up and walked out of the room, Pudding being confused and just followed. The two of them went downstairs on the couch to go be lovers. Nicolas and Vera having left to somewhere at some point and Diamond being locked away in her room to handle life alone.

 

[diwa]

Clarissa stretched like a cat as soon as the boys left the room. Coiling around sleeping Sage again, she pouted. "Your dad is being a girl again, it's his time of the month." She kissed Sage's head and carried the little girl back to her nursery. It was a feat considering she didn't woke up as soon as she was on her bed.


Clarissa went downstairs, hoping to see Vera and Nicolas but Adrian was alone with Pudding. She stood at the back of the couch and looked down at the man child? "What is up with you?" She asked at him quietly. "Do you actually want them out?"

 

[The Condescension]

Adrian opened his eyes looking up at her. He just wasn't in a good mood and if he told Clarissa just to leave him alone he doubted if that happened. "You have the bed all to yourself, go enjoy it I left." He commented harshly at first. "You know if Diamond woke you u- actually wait a minute." He said pushing Pudding off of him and made him stay while he went upstairs getting Diamond. He came down with her after a few moments getting the girl to come out wasn't that hard.


Adrian just stood there shirtless and pointed at Clarissa. "Go pull her hair and try to punch in the face."


"What."


"You did it to me, she expects me to just be okay with it. She should be okay with it too." Diamond just awkwardly fidgeted with she stood knowing she wouldn't be able to go back upstairs till Adrian got what he wanted and she didn't want to fight anyone right now. After Diamond didn't do anything for a moment he sighed, walking out the front door and slammed it behind him making Pudding bark loudly for a moment before just shutting up being confused as Diamond.

 

[diwa]

All the while, Clarissa's eyebrows were arched. Not exactly knowing what was happening or what is going to happen. She just crossed her arms on her chest and glared at her boyfriend who was being a prick as of the moment. She held her tongue for she knew Adrian was on the roll. She just ignored him when he walked out of the room. Shushing Pudding, she looked at Diamond. "Don't mind that dick, it's just PMS. It'll pass..." Clarissa said ith nonchalance. "Now you see his girly side. Sometimes he really is an annoying bitch. Go back to your room." Clarissa said with a wave as she head back upstairs.


She stayed in the nursery and locked the door behind her. Grabbing a spare book, she laud down on the cot by the side and started reading.

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond sighed quietly, looking around for Vera for a moment before going back to her room making sure to lock the door behind her this time. Adrian came back way later to be considered normal time to return from pouting. He didn't go inside right away either just stayed in his car for a while, still being shirtless as well. Diamond was awake and heard his car, going to Sages nurseys room and knocked on the door. "Hey your girlfriend is back.." She sighed, wishing Vera would come back having no idea where she ran off to with Nicolas either.

 

[diwa]

Halfway through her book she fell asleep only to be woken up by Sage's crying. She finally woke up, annoyed for some reason. "What's the problem, love?" Sage wailed until she was picked up, she was still sobbing dramatically but tears already stopped falling. Clarissa called on Pudding, who was still waiting by the door for the other princess. The bear padded inside and in an instant, Sage gave a wide smile. Clarissa put her down and she crawled by Pudding's sighed. Knowing the little girl, he plopped himself on the ground and let her wrestle and annoy him once more.


After a couple of minutes, Sage was silent and on top of Pudding. Her tubby hands was holding his ears. "She'll wake up if I move her, you know that right?" Clarissa said to Pudding who was looking at her. The dog whined quietly and let the girl sleep.


After a couple of minutes she heard Diamond by the door. "Don't mind him," Clarissa opened the door. "I don't want to talk if he'll be all bitchy and downright crazy. I might accidentally stab him, who knows."

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond nodded and sighed. "Alright, just letting you know if you did want to talk to him." She said before going back to her room. Adrian came into the house carrying two little puppies in his arms, despite Clarissa telling him no he went ahead and did anyway. If the two girls weren't going to leave his home he would get dogs to make up for it. He went straight into his bedroom and turned on the lights, laying down on the center of the bed and sat the two bulldog puppies next to him on the bed they were not newborns and Adrian clearly have bought them off somewhere. One of them was just wrinkly, all white while its sibling was chunky and almost all tan colored besides a few white spots. The dogs whined loudly not being used to the new area and didn't like the smell of Pudding either.


Pudding being stuck with Sage on top of him could hear those dogs, and smell them. Not expecting any visitors he wasn't happy and would go to look at those puppies if he could.

 

[diwa]

Clarissa shut the door after Diamond left, not obviously wanting to talk to Adrian and don't want to handle all his bitchiness. It took another hour before Sage woke up. All in good mood seeing the bear was still on her side. She crawled down on him and went towards Clarissa, "Come on, I know you must be hungry." She carried the little girl and opened the door. Pudding darted as soon as he can, almost knocking them out of the way as he went and ran to their room. She just thought that Adrian was in there, she went down and gave Sage some food.


After feeding the satisfied little girl, she put her down on the play pen. "Stay there, mommy needs her phone." She mumbled kissing her head before she ran up the stairs and into their bedroom.


"What the fuck are those?!" Clarissa snarled seeing two puppies on their bed as she open their door. "I told you, don't bring another mutated things back home. Take them back, Acher." She glared at him before she grab her phone by the bedside table. "Take them back or i'll feed those folds and spots to Pudding." She warned him before shutting the door behind her.

 

[The Condescension]

Adrian pouted, wanting to keep the things and would rather keep them over Diamond and Vera. He went into Diamonds room as she didn't lock this time having forgotten and panicked as Adrian picked her up carrying her downstairs. "PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?" She screamed at him, flailing around. Adrian didn't answer her and opened the front door dropping her onto the ground.


"Wait a minute." He said before running back upstairs grabbing a good pile of the girls clothes and dropped them down next to Diamond shutting and locking the door behind him. Diamond laying on the front porch confused and scared not knowing what to do. Adrian glared at Clarissa. "Vera isn't here so I can't do the same to her. So help me god tell me what to do one more time and I will do the same to you Clarissa. I don't want to deal with anyone anymore." He hissed as he went back upstairs, Pudding having run downstairs and was just confused as hell as the girl was kicked out and he was still freaking out over the wrinkly and fat pup on the twos bed. He went over to Clarissa and made some weird noise that wasn't like him clearly having picked up on Adrians mood wanting to know what to do.

 

[diwa]

His PMS are way over the top that Clarissa just looked at him as he carried Diamond out of the house. She was tired at handling all his bitchiness that day. "Do the same?!" She said quietly as she stared at him. She stood up and ran back upstairs, it took her only a couple of minutes before she ran back down while holding a duffel bag on one shoulder and Sage's bag with the other.


She picked up Sage with ease and glared at Adrian once again. "Enjoy the house, bitch." She hissed at him before she head out. The poor little stripper was by the door, sitting on the pavement. "Take your clothes," she tossed Diamond a paper bag. "I'll take you to your apartment or you can come with us. Either way, I don't wanna handle his fucking moodswing." She ordered quietly. Luckily for them, Vera's carkeys were in their room. She fished them out and opened the doors. She lightly pushed Diamond inside and handed her Sage. Clarissa was fuming and certainly she was a force to be reckon with that time. She went into the driver's seat and pulled out of the driveway. She honk the horn few times before she drove away.

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond awkwardly did as she was told by mama Clarissa. She held Sage and stared at Clarissa knowing that the girl was pissed. "There's something wrong with him.." She trailed off, speaking quietly not wanting to anger the girl and was still upset over Vera. "He just isn't PMSing at this point.. He wouldn't kick you out too.. me maybe but not you.." She sighed quietly and played with the girls hair gently. "Check back up on him in the morning and I'll check on Vera in the morning as well."

 

[diwa]

Clarissa gripped the steering wheel tight as she floored the accelerator. She hissed and cussed at all the slow drivers and also the car. She forgotten that it was Vera's and not Adrian's lovely jaguar. "Oh shut it." Clarissa accidentally snapped at her. "As of the moment I don't fucking care what he is. I don't like being threathened." She hissed. "OH COME ON! DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO DRIVE?!" Clarissa yelled at the other car who swerved on their way, she honk the horn a couple of times before stopping. "If he wants me out then i'm out. Where do you want to go?" She stole a glance at the rearview mirror before looking back on the road.

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond shrugged, sighing again. "Lets just go to a hotel." She spoke quietly not wanting Clarissas rage to switch to her and be stuck on the side of a street. Sage wasn't very happy with her mothers yelling and starting sobbing, Diamond rubbing the girls back gently trying to make her calm down.

 

[diwa]

Clarissa drove faster or the faster the thing can handle. A couple of minutes later they were in the hotel lobby. She handed the bags to the bellhop, almost shoved them. The valet parking ticket was in her hand. She was a regular in that hotel. After everything that happened to then, aside from the hospital, that hotel was like a second home. That's why the hotel staff was curious as to why isn't she all smiling like before. They managed to check in within five minutes. A bellhop was holding their bags as they went into the lift. She was quiet and was now holding Sage. The little girl calmed her down a bit.


She handed the bellhop some tip, despite that she was cranky and in beastmode, she was still generous. Clarissa put Sage down on the first bed, leaving the other bed for Diamond to occupy. Clarissa switched the TV on and laid down on Sage's side, and was still not talking.

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond didn't say anything to the girl either, just laying down on the bed and shut her eyes quickly falling asleep being tired anyway and just wanted to sleep so time would past faster so she could hurry up and find Vera again, being so attached to the girl that it was heart breaking knowing that she may never see her again.

 

[diwa]

Clarissa finally calmed down as she watched some nonsense movie about Barbie that Sage seemed to enjoy. It was probably because of the unicorns and colors. She glanced at Diamond's side and was glad that Vera wasn't around the house when Adrian threw a fit, there were too many kids if that happens.


Clarissa took her free time in calling her mum, she was quite surprise when she answered quickly. Her mum was just one state away from them due to a meeting about mergers and acquisitions at some mall. She was actually planning on visiting them once it was over. Clarissa, not wanting her mum to know her situation as of the moment, told her mother that she'll be visiting them instead, she'll fly with Sage to New York.


"C'est merveilleux!" Mrs. Mason exclaimed, obviously excited at what is gping to happen. "How is my grandchild?" She added with a feint french accent that she can't hide. Clarissa handed the phone to Sage and the little girl started to rant and mumble some words non stop. She could hear a her mum's rapid french as she talk to Sage. It took a couple of minutes since Sage was clearly enjoying what was she doing even if she can't understand a thing.


After sometime, Clarissa took the phone from the little girl who was going to cry but she instantly traded her the remote. Clarissa bid goodbye to her mother afterwards.


"Okay, little girl!" She carried Sage and hugged her tight. "Apparently we're going to New York. How about that?"

 

[The Condescension]

Diamond eyes opened around the end of her mother in rambling in french to the little girl, hearing about going to new york. "So uh.. are you and Adrian done..?" She asked not knowing where she would go if Clarissa moved to New York.

 

[diwa]

"I.... I am not sure." Clarissa said quietly, she honestly don't know whaft the hell is going to happen to them. Sage was still talking and shrieking on the remote control like it was nobody's business. "If he's still bitchy then he can have the house and Pudding and those freaky little puppies, I don't know what they are, but they're all wrinkly and weird. I'll move back to New York with Sage until then. What about you?"

 

[The Condescension]

"Uh... I'll figure something out. I'll stay here while you go talk with him. I can even watch Sage for you; I kinda just want to be alone right now. I'm not trying to like force you away or anything.. it's just yeah I'm not very happy either right now. Just go figure shit out with Adrian so I know what I need to do."

 

[diwa]

"Don't worry, we'll be here for like seven more days if Adrian is still being a girl." Clarissa shrugged at her. "I could pay for like a few more days until the time we came back if you like, you know, if you don't have a place to stay." Sage patted Clarissa's arm and handed her the remote, as if telling her to talk to it too. Smiling at her, she picked it up and placed it on her right ear. "I'll talk to him maybe tomorrow or the next day. Depends if I can face him without screeching at him. You hungry?" She asked her, Sage seeing Diamond, took the remote control from Clarissa and was about to crawl down from the bed. Clarissa sighed and picked her up. She settled the little girl on Diamond's bed and she crawled on the stripper's lap, handing her the remote control.
