Rifts: Why Choosen Ones are my enemy?
Chapter 32: News
"Let’s go to Victor’s place,’’ Jussica said to the group.
Hearing her Norah’s eyes brightened.
While Jully’s face darkened. She had no idea what to do with this idiot friend of hers. Did she now only think about that boy who is two years younger than her? Though his body..., wrong direction, what I’m thinking.
He appeared stronger than most of my old classmates and he is a little taller than me. What does he eat? She thought.
"Come on, we didn’t visit yesterday, he must be missing us,’’ Jussica added, while shaking her trying to convince Jully.
Jully removed her hands.
"What’s missing us, you’re dreaming girl? I’m sure that mama’s boy doesn’t care about us at all." Jully wasn’t going to be easily convinced by her.
"I don’t like to go there, Miss Elizabeth’s look scares me,’’ Yuna said.
"Her cold look mostly pointed at Jussica, why are you scared?" Gwen asked with a teasing smile. " What’re you hiding?"
"Scared for her sake." Yuna pointed at Jussica.
"Yuna, that’s so sweet of you," Jussica said.
While, Mulica ignored everyone reading a book, sitting next to Norah.
Chubby and twins just stay silent, they will follow along with whatever they decide, but Norah really wants to go and see Victor, even though she doesn’t voice it.

While they’re discussing. Victor sat in the living room with his family, his mobile was on his side placed on the couch, the TV was off. Liza was reading her novel sitting next to him but he wasn’t peeking at her book.
He is getting bored, he wants to do something new today but doesn’t know what, leaning back on the couch staring at the cling he is in a deep thought.
Elizabeth and Alice look at each other before shrugging.
.
They had no idea why he was so silent, not doing anything today.
Alice sipped a juice, while looking at him.
Victor’s past life’s memories become hazy; he can’t even recall his name, this is like it was just a dream he saw and believed it was real.
Well, dream or what it doesn’t matter anyway.
He looked at his mother and spoke. "Mama, I want to conquer the world.’’
Elizabeth smiled. "Sure, My Angel, let’s conquer the world." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Liza raised her head and looked at him for a moment. "Sure, go ahead ’’ she said, before beginning to read again."
Victor wasn’t satisfied with their reactions.
"I want to have sex.’’ He said, looking at Liza
Liza again looked at him, raising her brows before she spoke. "No you can’t, you’re not an adult yet. and you even know what that is.’’
Alica sipping her juice is thinking about where this conversation started and where it is going.
"Jussica said she will teach me...
"Crack! " In Elizabeth’s, the mobile phone’s display cracked. "NO!, Baby when you become an adult I will teach.’’ She said, immediately.
"Couch!..’’ The juice she was drinking came out of Alice’s nose. , No, no, it can’t be I was right, no, she doesn’t mean that.. I don’t.. It’s weird, she literally means that.
"Okay..;’’ Victor shrugged, let it go for now. He had his fun seeing their reactions.
Liza is still looking at them thinking what to do with this due. She sighed, helplessly. "Whatever."
Elizabeth’s screen-cracked phone buzzed, and it was Lily calling her; she picked up the call.
"Hello."
—
"Alright ’’ After a minute Elizabeth cut the call.
"What she said.’’ Liza guessed it was Lily.
"The new type of creature appeared from the rift and a rift was opened in a public area and those started killing civilians.’’
"So...
"I want to go there!,’’ Victor said, before anyone.
"No, baby you can’t it’s dangerous.’’ Elizabeth straightly rejected his idea.
"Hum!" He puffed his cheeks. "So, what should I do I,m getting bored.’’
Just then their doorbell rings. "It looks like your friends are here to entertain you," Alice said as she stood up, moved to the door, and happily opened it.
"Good afternoon, Miss Alice,’’ Gwen said, with a smile.
"Afternoon, Gwen and everyone, came in just now Victor is missing you all’’
"Really?!" Jussica asked, excitedly.
They all stepped in one by one, while Liza switched on the TV.. looking for news about this new rift.
With one hand she changed the channels and with the other, she searched on her mobile phone.
Elizabeth’s cold eyes landed on the group, before stopping at Jussica.
Jussica nervously gulped, saying in her heart. She can’t do anything in front of everyone.
Soon, Elizabeth moved her gaze away from them.
Girls sighed in their hearts, together.
"Sis, should we...’’
"No, if I can’t come you guys can’t go either,’’ Victor said.
Elizabeth sighed then said with a smile. "Don’t worry my angel, I’m not going anywhere.’’
Girls ponder what they were talking about.
Victor saw the group entering the living room, but they didn’t start a conversation, like they usually do. They just stood there.
He ignored them. " Sister Alice, I want a chocolate shake."
"Sure, sweety," Alice said, walking to the kitchen.
When Victor’s focus was on Alice, Liza found a news channel, Elizabeth saw it and immediately stood up and moved in front of Victor when he was about to look at the TV, standing in front of him she blocked his view.
Girls watched the news channel. Showing the purple rift but a lot less violent than what they’re normally seeing on social media from the past two weeks.
But it wasn’t only a rift, there was a creature with fur, moving on two legs, their face of a wolf with sharp teeth and claws on their hand, they were hunting, people,.., eating humans, live news channel showed it, normally this type of scene would be blurred, but they don’t do this time.., who knows why.
Victor tried to look from the side, but Elizabeth moved with her. "What’re you doing, Mama? I want to watch too .’’
"No, baby you can’t it’s disgusting.’’
"But, I watched a zombie movie before and face gobline...
"It’s more disgusting than that," Elizabeth said, softly looking at him.
"Really?"
"yeah.’’
"Can I take a peek, ’’
Elizabeth bent down, gave a small pack on her lips. "No, my angel, listen to mama."
Victor pouted. "Fine. I won’t look.’’
Liza presses the remote button and turns off the TV. "So, we are not going?’’
Elizabeth shrugged. ’’ If you want to become a hero we can go, sis.’’
"forget it.’’ Liza begins to read again where she stopped.
’’Shouldn’t we help’’ Jully spoke lightly..
"The military will handle it,’’ Elizabeth said. "They don’t need our help.
