Chapter twenty-three: Lithium

 

 

 

 

In Talitha's room:

 

Esther looked up from checking the progress of Talitha's healing, “Oh! Hello-good morning Katiya!” she gasped in surprise as the silver haired woman popped her head into the room before entering.

 

The dark haired six year old looked up from Esther and looked at her surrogate mother happily, “morning mommy!” she giggled.

 

Kati smiled as she brushed back a lock of her loose silver trestles behind her and sat on the edge of her daughter's bed, “morning…” she told her softly before pulling her into a soft embrace. Talitha giggled happily and sighed. Abel's daughter looked up at the fire-haired nun, “good morning,” she told her before adding, “I apologies if I appeared to be ignoring you.”

 

“Oh!” the red haired youth remarked loudly, “n-no don't worry about it…” she told her with a respectful bow.

 

The young woman laughed, “don't humble yourself…by the way…do you know where I can get some alcohol?”

 

“Huh?!” the nun jumped before thinking to herself, “well we have some red wine I the basement winery…would you like some of that?”

 

“Yes…bring two bottles up please,” she said before re-thinking to herself, “Actually…just bring up one.”

 

“Um…ok. I'll have it up to you right away,” Esther told her before leaving the room to go to the winery.

 

“Ok…” Katiya called to her sweetly.

 

Just then Katiya's cell phone began to ring and vibrate in her pants pocket; she pulled it out and answered it after checking the caller I.D, “You finally called me Syair…anything new on uncle Skye? Did you lock my closet door and hide my make up? I don't need that transvestite getting into my things and playing dress up,” she told her.

 

“Hi Katiya I'm sorry that I didn't call you yesterday well your uncle should be arriving tomorrow at 9:00 pm and yes I locked your closet door and hid your make-up so that he can't get into the cloths that you left here. By the way Adrian called me and told me that there's going to be a street race tonight on the out-skirts of Rome and the winner gets all the contestants cash…I thought maybe you'd like to enter your Seleen in the race and perhaps have your father join you? I really think that you and Abel should have some father-daughter time away from the Vatican…and you like to race…so…” Syair replied sweetly.

 

“I'll think about it…” her friend replied.

 

“It starts at 10:00 pm…” Cain's daughter replied.

 

“Good to know…thanks,” Abel's daughter told her, “But I'm still thinking about it.”

 

“Well whatever…call Adrian; he misses you,” she replied over the phone before saying salutations and hanging up.

 

The daughter of Father Abel closed her phone.

 

“Is Syair coming back with your uncle Skye?” Talitha asked sweetly.

 

“She'll be coming back tomorrow; Uncle's flight doesn't get in until 9 o'clock at night tomorrow,” Kati replied , ruffling her child's hair and kissing her head, “well I got to go to my garage outside town and get my car,” The young adult replied softly before adding giggly, “I've thought about it and I'm going to enter my Seleen into the race tonight…”

 

“Oh that white sports car? I like that car; it's so pretty…I can't wait until I'm old enough to go for a ride in it,” the child sighed before sitting up.

 

“I will sometime sweetie,” her mother replied before getting out of the bed and walking out of the room…

 

In the hallway:

 

“Oh! Katiya here's the wine!” Esther told her as she handed the silver haired lady the wine bottle, “where are you going?”

 

“Thank you Esther,” Katiya replied before popping the top off the wine bottle and chugging the liquid.

 

The nun gulped in shock as her friend's daughter drank the last of the alcohol without a second breath and handed her back the empty bottle, “I'll be back later. Tell my father not to worry…” she told her before continuing down the hall to the exit.

 

“Uh…o-ok…” The nun uttered in disbelief.

 

Two hours later:

 

Abel stirred awake and sat up in the bed, “where did Katiya go?” he asked himself with a lethargic sigh before remembering their little verbal conflict the night before…

 

Ten minuets later:

Father Nightroad entered Talitha's room to see Esther.

 

The child looked up, “good morning grandpa,” she smiled.

 

Abel took a deep breath; he REALLY didn't like being called `grandfather' or any variation of that word, “where's Sister Esther?”

 

“She went to pee,” the little girl replied with a smile.

 

“Then where's Katiya?” he asked with a yawn.

 

“She went to get her car…”

 

“wha'?” He looked at her with mild confusion, “she has a car?”

 

Talitha nodded, “Yeah! She had tons of them!” she giggled, “but she'll be back later so don't worry about her.”

 

The priest sighed, “alright…” he replied before leaving to room…

 

 

Meanwhile at the musician bar:

 

 

“Hello Hannah,” the boss said kindly as she entered the building, “Sorry about yesterday… you just freaked everyone out…” he added.

 

The red haired teen gave him a soft smile, “It's ok…I'm not mad…”

 

“Good…now take table 20's order,” he told her before handing her a notepad and pen, “will you be singing tonight?” he asked as she took the goods.

 

“Yes…I will be,” she replied.

 

“Great…keep up the good work!” he commented.

 

Hannah smiled but it soon turned into a lonesome frown as she thought about Abel and the night before on the bridge…

 

Later that day:

 

“Father!” Katiya called as she entered the Vatican, tossing her car keys in the air and catching them.

 

The priest came out of the adjacent hallway, “yes daughter?” he asked lowly.

 

“I've decided to forgive you and for the record; I want to take out for a night of fun later,” she told him, “so what do you say?” she smiled.

 

Peter thought for a minuet before giving her a soft smile, “alright.”

 

Katiya grinned, “Wonderful! I'll meet you in this spot at 9:00 pm tonight,” she told him before walking past him to see Talitha…
