When Penny followed Chris away, Hughes ran back to her master. If everything Barnaby heard was correct, then this was a serious matter.

Her feet flew over the tiled floors as she rushed back to the lab. Panic crept up her throat. If anything happened to Miss Penny, Hughes couldn’t imagine what her master would do

Lately, the man seems very attached to the girl and he seems to be staying sane a lot.

He no longer moved around the mansion in that lab coat, looking for things to use for his next experiment.

That is how Hughes had found out about their master’s on-and-off madness. She had screamed so loud her own ears rang that night, until Osvaldo quietly asked her to stop.

And when she did, he simply walked away.

She thought she was dreaming.

The same feeling Penny had. But she couldn’t tell Penny the truth yet. That’s because Osvaldo made them sign a deal never to spill the truth.

He had never been friendly with the staff. Never showed emotion. Which was why it still surprised her every time she saw him smile.

Because he only smiled at one person.

The fat girl with the quiet eyes.

To everyone else, he was a monster. A vicious demon.

A man who played like a child because he never got the chance to grow up like every normal child. One moment he was seven, and the next, he was 25.

Hughes banged on the lab door, her fists aching from the force. "Master!" she cried. "Please, Master!"

Finally, the door opened. The faint smell of chemicals drifted out, and there he was.

Her master.

But he looked so different.

More handsome...

More normal...

His hair was perfectly tied to the back, beard shaved and normal again, showcasing his perfect chin.

He looked like a god straight outta hell.

Hughes dropped to her knees. "Master Osvaldo," she choked out, tears in her voice, "they’ve taken Miss Penny away."

Osvaldo’s eyes sharpened. "Penguin?"

She nodded hard. "Master Chris came and asked for her. Barnaby said he... he said..." She couldn’t stop herself. Everything she’d heard, spilled from her lips like water breaking through a dam.

She thought. Hoped he’d rush out immediately.

He would fight for her.

That he would save their miss Penny from his fake family. The one that always made him smile.

After all, he was in love with her, right? So it wouldn’t hurt him to rescue her, would it?

But Osvaldo just stood there.

Silent.

And then, after what felt like a lifetime...

"Hmm."

He hummed, soft and unreadable.

And then he closed the door.

Hughes stared at the wood, stunned.

Not a single word. Not a single step.

Her hands trembled as she pushed herself up from the floor. Her knees ached.

Maybe he didn’t care. Maybe Miss Penny really was just another toy. Maybe she was nothing to him after all.
