It’s the middle of night time when Orange woke up. They opened their eye and sit down, trying to understand what woke them up. They heard a sound coming from the MedBay vent. A vine is coming out of it.

“Chuchu, what are you doing?” asked the alien to the carnivorous flower who show her head. The plant whinned.

“ “A strange sound”? Chuchu it’s called “doing a night roun”. Someone must be doing their round.”

She whinned again.

“ *sight* Alright, wanna check who is it with me? You had to hold my Grapes juice bag.”

Chuchu got out of the vent and go to her “parent” side and took the bag. Orange go out of the bet and open MedBay’s door. Once out, they both go to the cafeteria.

“I’m gonna eat some of my melons in the way. Wanna eat something Chuchu?”

Chuchu shake her head

“Alright then. I take one and we’re going.”

-Why are you here ?”

Orange turn to the door to the Admin and Storage hallway.

“Oh. Good evening White.”

-I repeat myself: Why are you here?”

-Chuchu heard a sound around O2. Must be you I think.”

-If it’s so, then go back to sleep.” answer White in an uncharacteristic cold voice.

“…. Do you hate me White?

-…What?

-Do you hate me because your sister hides my secret from you?

-You make her hide it.

-I didn’t.

-Don’t lie to me.

-Why would I?

-Well, you did lied about been a crewmate !!”

Not liking the way the earthman talks to her “parent”, Chuchu began to grow

“ Easy Chuchu. White, first of all, I learn that Black knew my secret at the same times at you. Second of all, I hide who I am because I don’t want to die either.

- Oh please! You had accomplices and a home in space!

- I don’t. I’m banned from my planet because I want to keep you, earthmen, safe!

-In that case I’m sure your family is very disappointed by you!”

Orange didn’t response. They don’t understand why that sentence did hurt them, but they know one thing.

“You’re not yourself tonight. That is quite understandable with all that happened in the last few days. So I’ll leave you alone for now. Chuchu, let’s go.”

They both leave the room, leaving White and some uneaten melons alone in the Cafeteria.
