mission five; mommy-daughter bonding.

SPY × FAMILY

—"MAMA, WHERE ARE WE GOING??" Anya held onto the woman's hand. Loid had asked them to go out together for a bit while he discussed the change of events with the Handler. Y/n couldn't help but think about her current situation. Here she was yet again wrapped in fabricated life.

She couldn't help but want something real for once...

Anya stared blankly at her as she read her mind 'Mama's sad...'

Y/n quickly snapped out of her thoughts and looked around "Oh my..." she blinks twice "I seem to have forgotten where we were headed."

'We're doomed!' Anya picks up a thought from someone near them. She looks around and finds her papa in complete disguise, watching the two of them 'They should be heading to the museum...'

"Mu... Musum!" she yells "Mama, we're going to the musum!"

"Oh, the museum." Y/n laughs "Let's go."

Y/n had no idea what was appropriate to go to with a child. There wasn't much to reference since she did nanny a couple of children but she mostly did it inside the house, sometimes going to the park or shopping. Loid didn't give it much thought either but he wanted to train Anya to be sophisticated, and smart and to measure up to the Eden Academy standard.

So the museum was the best choice since it had a lot of paintings. Children love pictures.

"Mama. What's that??" Anya pointed at a painting of a guillotine. Y/n blinks twice 'Public executions...'

'EXECUTIONS???'

"That's... not appropriate for you to look at." she sweats. She tries to turn her attention somewhere else "How about those? Those are surrealist paintings."

"They're weird..."

"That's exactly the point. Well done, Anya!"

"Mama! I can see that woman's bo-"

"That's also not appropriate for you to look at." Y/n picks her up "Maybe the museum wasn't the best choice..."

"Mama, let's get peanuts!"

"Don't we have peanuts back home?"

"I like the boiled ones with the shell."

"Really? Me too." she smiles. As they exited the place, Loid's jaw dropped, and ran outside to catch up to them. Loid never thought of his personal feelings because he was taught to do so, but sometimes his feelings are too much to be held captive in his heart. He has never seen such caring eyes from his mentor. And the thing is, he knew if it was genuine or not.

A child could melt a heart made out of steel.

Motherhood was something a woman would usually think about in her mid-20s. Y/n was no different. Women her age would have three children by then. Here she was with a child who didn't even pop out of her body; an object to their mission.

She felt bad for Anya. A child shouldn't get wrapped up in this, it was just unethical!

A man bumps into her side "Sorry!" he ran away quickly. Thinking nothing of it, she walked into the shop. The smell of fresh peanuts lingered in the air, exciting Anya.

"Ah, Miss Y/n! Very nice to see you. Should I get you your usual? Oh, and who is this pretty angel? One of the children you're taking care of I assume?"

"This is Anya." she rubs her shoulders "She's my daughter."

"Daughter? I see you've settled down! You finally picked a man out of all those suitors. I thought you finally agreed to go out with that Bri-"

"Yes, just the usual!" Y/n cuts him off "Give me a discount, alright?"

"Of course."

She takes out a bulky wallet. Obviously, it wasn't her's. The man who bumped into her snatched her wallet, and she returned the favor by snatching his. Loid didn't give her any money, so her wallet had nothing inside it besides a coupon for a massage.

"Y'know Miss Y/n, you should bring your husband with you whenever you leave the house. Street snatchers have become common. My son told me there were a lot of reports, especially yesterday. A woman's ear bled when her dangling diamond earring was snatched from her ear."

"Seriously?"

"Seriously. Be careful out there."

'No. Seriously? I should bring my husband out? The asshole can't even tie his shoes properly without wrinkling his suit. I'm better off adopting a dog if that's the case.' she rolls her eyes "I'm perfectly capable of keeping myself safe. I wouldn't want to disturb my husband."

"You do you, Miss Y/n." he hands her the bag "Have a nice day!"

"You too!"

They leave the store and Anya stared at the furrow-browed woman. Anya was trying to hear her thoughts but it was completely blank.

'Maybe mama is just stupid. Her mind is empty. Maybe Anya is smarter than mama...'

"Oh!" Y/n snaps back into reality 'I'll just keep up the image of the perfect wife!' Anya finally hears.

'She's spacing out a lot...' Anya picked up Loid's thoughts 'Is there something on her mind?'

"Mama!" she tugs on her coat "Mama has something on her mind!"

Y/n blinks twice before her lips curled into a small smile "Don't worry, Anya. It's nothing."

'I'm just a little overwhelmed... that's all.'

"Mama, let's go home now."

"So soon?"

"Mama should rest instead."

She shook her head "But your father said that we should bond today. I want to form a good relationship with you, Anya. Since I'm going to be your mother, I'm going to have to know a lot about you."

"Mama has lots of time to get to know Anya! I want to go home now."

"Alright, alright." Y/n laughs "Maybe we can try again tomorrow."

"Anya wants to stay home."

"O-Okay...?"

And they did just that. After washing herself, Y/n pats her face with a towel. She stared at herself in the mirror and let out a sigh "I should really stop being nervous." she slaps both her hands on each of her cheeks "I'm a goddamned world-class spy for fuck's sake."

A knock came from behind the door "Y/n? Are you done?"

"No. Obviously, I'm not." 

"A-Ah-" the door swung open "I'm kidding. The bathroom's all yours." she walks past him, her shoulder brushing against his.

"I was hoping we could talk..."

"Hmm? About what?"

"About why you retired."
