With Alice's hands returned to her, she turned away from Watari and followed the cord
that was hooked from the handset to the rest of the telephone. The push dial rested on the
front of the phone, begging, in Alice's mind, to be messed with. Without any hesitation,
Alice stuck her forefinger into one of the holes and pushed down.
Watari quickly pulled her hand away before she could do anything more. "Miss Alice,
please reframe from that misbehavior," he pleaded.
Alice only responded with a laugh and a snort."You said beaver," she chuckled.
L ignored the girl's presence and continued on with the conversation: "I will be done with
the case sooner than that, so I will most likely depart on the nineteenth."
Watari paused for a second, taking in L's words, but soon found himself smiling with relief.
"All right, the nineteenth, then. I will have everything prepared for your arrival."
L took this as the end of conversation and thanked Watari for his work before he hung up
the phone. As he set his cell phone down, he took a look back at his laptop screen in front
him. A small smile crept on his face as he placed his thumb to his lips.
"Dragonfly, huh?"
A breeze rolled in through the open window, pulling lace curtains along with it. The room lit
up from the sun's rays, warming the room to a cool temperature. Alice groaned as she sat
up in her mangled bed. She was never still when she slept, so sheets scrunched at the end
on the mattress and covers twisted around her torso weren't all too surprising to her. As she
untangled herself from the comforter, a quiet knock came from her door.
"Yeah, uh, who is it?" she asked, her headache throbbing from the sound of her own voice.
The light entering the room also didn't help her hangover. It was bright and
blinding, making her eyes squint with discomfort.
"Breakfast is ready, and it would be nice if you could come join us," Watari said.
Alice groaned in response and held her forehead tightly. "All right, I'm I'm not going to be
happy about it."
"I'm pleased to hear you're back to normal." He then turned away from the door and
proceeded down the hall. After everything that happened last night, Watari could only
smile with joy that the newest member was getting along well with everyone else. At first,
he was concerned, not really knowing how she would favor in the home, but after a
month's time passed by, the results had been more than satisfactory.
Alice pulled herself out of bed slowly, still cradling her forehead. The pain came in different
waves, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.
She knew the only cure for her hangover, or at least a way to make it suck less, was orange
juice. So she grabbed her pair of skinny jeans off the floor and tried to maneuver herself
into them as best as she could. Feeling like throwing up didn't help, but after a small
struggle on her part, she managed to get the pants on. She tore off her pajama shirt next
and then proceeded to try and hook her bra behind her. After failing a couple rounds, she
huffed angrily at the piece of undergarment and tossed it to the side. She could live
without a bra for one day. Instead, she picked up one of her T-shirts and sniffed it to make
sure it was clean. It smelled like oranges, so that meant it was still fresh in her book. As soon
as she was completely dressed, she made her way out of her white-walled room and
walked down the hall toward the kitchen. The entry way sat at the bottom of the stairs, to
the right.
The curtains were open, and sunlight was pouring into the house, making the orphanage
seem alive. It would have been deemed a pleasant day, but, to Alice, it was a morning of
hell. She could hear the laughter of some children in the dining room, the sounds of utensils
hitting their bowls and plates full of food. The smells of bacon and eggs filled the house, but
it all made Alice feel sick. The only thought on her mind was orange juice.
She gradually made her way to the archway that led into the dining room. As soon as she
was inside, two children called out to her.
"Alice!" they both squealed simultaneously. There was only pair of twins in the orphanage:
Lea and Liam.
"You look awful," Mello spoke up from across the room.
"She had enough to drink last night to knock out an elephant," Matt added.
Alice couldn't defend herself due to the twins' voices currently echoing in her brain;
though, if she could, the both of them wouldn't hear the end of it.
"Come sit next to me," Lea sang, taking her small hand and grabbing ahold of Alice's. Alice
followed willing and sat down in a padded,wooden chair that was placed between the
twins.
"Here you go, Alice!" Liam grinned, putting a cool glass of orange juice in front of her.
Alice looked at it with a sparkle in her eye. "Oh, Lea! Liam! Thank you!"
"We know you like orange juice, so it's no big deal."
"I'm surprised you haven't thrown up yet."
"I could come over there right now and throw up on you, if you like, Mello." Mello only
glared back at Alice as she took a sip of her orange juice. She sighed inwardly with
relief as the cold liquid ran down her dry throat.
"Do you remember anything from last night?" Near asked. He was using two fingers to hold
on to a fork as he poked at his eggs.
"I don't really remember muchugh, my head."
"Would you like something to eat?" Lea asked.
"I can't think of food right now."
"Maybe next time, you'll think before you go get wasted."
"I swear to God, Mello, I'm going to come over there and shove this cup down your throat."
"I liked to see you try, alcoholic!"
"Alice isn't addicted to alcohol, Mello," Near stated, shifting Mello's anger from Alice to
himself.
"Nobody asked you!"
"Well, I'm surprised you're not puking, seeing as how you ate three boxes of cereal last
night," Matt chuckled with the sounds of his handheld game ringing in the background. The
light from the screen reflected off his goggles that he wore over his eyes, making his face
impossible to decipher.
Roger walked into the room. "Matt, please put your game away when you're at the table."
Watari walked in right behind him, taking in the table full of children. "Well, I'm glad to see
you've joined us all this morning, Miss Alice."
Alice only groaned back, taking in another sip of her drink.
"Well now, everyone, I'm glad to see that all of you get along great with Miss Alice, and I
would like to toast in the success of our newest member," Roger announced, smiling. He
grabbed ahold of a glass of water and held it up in the air. Most of the children giggled
and grabbed their glasses as well, save Mello, Near, and Matt, who grabbed their glasses
unenthusiastically. There were also a few other children who didn't look to want to
participate in the honor of celebrating Alice's arrival, but they certainly didn't want to go
against Watari or Roger. Alice would have grabbed her glass too, if she wasn't already
chugging her juice.
"To Alice!" Roger cheered.
"To Alice!" the rest repeated with joy. They all started to take a sip of their drinks.
Watari took this opportunity to give more good news: "And just so everyone knows, L will be
returning in just one week to meet our newest member."
Everybody sprayed their drinks at the same time in surprise. Alice dropped her empty cup
on the table and ran out the room into the kitchen, where she proceeded to puke in the
sink.
"Dear Lord!" Miss Jane, the housekeeper, gasped from inside of the kitchen. The children in
the dining room didn't seem to notice as they all choked on liquid that they had inhaled in
their lungs.
"Well,Watari, what will L think when he comes back home?" Roger remarked, sighing as he
watched the children around the table gag and cough. Watari only responded with the
same sigh.
