Velvette was usually always putting up a front… She was always sassy and badass, Hell’s top fashionista witch overlady who could take on anything… And she was your mom, so you were used to seeing her be loving and nice towards you and be the cool, sassy overlady… You wanted to be just like her…
But, despite only being a freshly ten year old little girl, you knew she wasn’t doing great underneath her façade… Despite being so young, you knew she was close to cracking… She had been going to her lip injection appointments a lot more, she was starting to sleep a lot more, and she was beginning to cancel a lot more of her shows… Those were all bad signs… She NEVER cancelled a show… EVER…
You tried to get her to tell you what was wrong, but she always used the same excuse of “Mommy’s just stressed out from work…” She would never tell you what was wrong…
And you were only getting increasingly worried about her, not wanting something to happen to your mommy… You werwbonly a little girl, and you werw already worried something was gonna happen to your mother…
But tonight was by far the worst…
You had went to go check on Velvette in her work part of the V Tower, both because you were worried and because you missed her… You knew she was working late, but you were still worried… But when you got there, you noticed she wasn’t there… You had asked some of her models, and they all said she had went to the bathroom, and never came out… So you went in there to check on her… You knocked, but she wasn’t answering…
And then you opened the door… There she was, on the floor, her lips bruised and swollen, her whole body twitching, and she was passed out… You recognized the bruises on her lips— They were from her lip injections she always got…
So you called Hell’s medical emergency number, and managed to explain the situation to the dispatcher, and went with her to Hell’s infirmary, clinging to her hand the whole time, crying your young eyes out while your technical adopted dads, Vox and Valentino, tried to comfort you the whole time…
And as you sat there in the waiting room anxiously, waiting for any news on your mommy, your leg bounced up and down nervously while Vox and Val sat next to you… And then finally, a nurse came out of Velvette’s room, approaching the three of you…
