Allen still couldn’t believe it.
Just hours ago, he lost everything. Yet this evening he’s suddenly landed himself in another tiny settlement and officially a member of this new society already. Everything happened so fast Allen haven’t even finished processing all of it yet. Judging by what awaits in front of him, looks like the roller coaster ride isn’t going to stop anytime soon. In front of him, two girls look to be about early twenties stood. One looks casual with jeans and tanktop while the other girl seems to be a little more on the smart side of dressing up with the blouse-like top and black dress pants.
“Hello!” the casual girl walks ahead toward Allen. “Welcome to our humble shelter here!”
“Uh…” of course, she caught Allen off guard. His mind is still somewhere else with the whole abruptness.
“You okay?” the girl tilted her head.
“Take it easy, Sophia. Looks like he’s still shaken if what Doc told us earlier was true,” the other girl speaks with arms crossed on her chest.
“Oh right, sorry…” Sophia stepped back.
“So… Allen, right?” the formal-looking girl approaches Allen as well.
“Yeah…”
“Alright Allen, nice to meet you. This here is Sophia and you can call me Dakota. I would assume Miss Olivia probably already explained it to you but I’ll do it as well anyway, this is our shelter where tinies without home are rescued and living here,” Dakota and Sophia walks ahead to the left side of the whole settlement. “Follow us, we’ll show you around a bit,”
Confused and pretty much still disoriented, Allen had no choice but to go along wherever the current takes him…
+++
A sight not unfamiliar for Allen; brick and mortar homes, some are made from woods entirely. Fellow tinies of various ages walking around him, just chatting or doing their own activities… a tiny community inside this larger house, the tiny houses look well maintained, which is a given considering they got a caretaker.
“…as you can see, pretty much it’s just lots of houses here, the same on the other side as well. Oh, we also got our own clinic,” Sophia being a guide for Allen. “This place has been stood for about three months. That’s right, we’re still kinda new but pretty much already established enough,”
“Sophia, I think we need to show him his place, do you know a vacant spot here?” Dakota interrupts the tour.
“Let’s see… oh, I remember Jesse got a spare bed on his place,”
“Good then, let’s show Allen here the place,” Dakota turns her head, yet Allen isn’t on her side. “Allen?”
Looking back, there’s Allen standing alone. Tears running down Allen’s face. Seems like the sight of this tiny settlement reminds him so much of his own home that it hits close for him. Years living together inside the comfort of a tight knit community, Ellen being such a nice caretaker helping with foods and tiny facilities, weekly Friday football play by the entire villagers, her always-supportive hyperactive brother, Eddy’s delicious coffee…
“A-Allen?” now Sophia is concerned. As soon as Allen turned his sight on Sophia… all he saw is Tammy. Immediately memories flooding his own mind. Years of Tammy helping Allen recovering from his depression about losing his parents with her unrelenting positive vibe, ever cheerful trying to ease up Allen’s mood everyday, always a shining beacon in his life…
The realization that all of it are gone just hours ago, forcefully ripped away from Allen… it creeps inside him slowly, his heart aches.
“What’s wrong?” Dakota approaches Allen as well.
“I don’t know, he’d just started crying,” Sophia seems confused. “Hey, you sure you alright? Maybe you need a short break?”
Now Allen tried to think of his response to all of this. Should he tell them what happened? Despite the imaginary knife stabbed his heart currently, he knows he need to accept the fact that this is probably going to be his new home. If that’s the way, at the very least Allen doesn’t want these new peoples to simply view him simply as a victim that needs pity all the time. He never likes it.
“No… I-I’m fine…” quickly Allen wiped his tears off his face.
“You sure?” Sophia still concerned.
“Yeah, don’t worry,” deep breath, Allen trying his best to recover his mood. These two girls have been kind enough sparing their time to welcome him and show him the place, wouldn’t want to come off as annoying and selfish.
“Well… at least let us show you where you would sleep, okay?” Dakota resumed the tour once again. Sophia though, despite Allen’s reassurance, she’s still unconvinced…
+++
Finally, they’re arrived on a designated house. Front door already opened, there seems to be various stuff piling up outside the house such as shirt button, paperclip, glass marble, CPU components and various ‘small’ things that could make a landfill jealous.
“Dammit, Jesse…” Sophia could only sigh witnessing the scene not too dissimilar to a junkyard. “Sorry about this mess, this one guy is such a lazy bum,”
“I still don’t get why he scavenge all these things…” Dakota clearly far from impressed.
“Eh, you know him… remember when he told us he was interested in building some kind of a giant robot model? You know, like those animations about fighting robots… he said he’s gonna cutting all of this, assembling, painting and everything… then, just boys being boys, lose interest and whatever…” Sophia knows well.
“So that’s why he often gone scavenging around the house…”
“Yeah, especially Lola’s room. There he found many computer parts and tiny components…”
Lola? Allen seems interested at the unfamiliar name. If Olivia is the owner of this house and shelter… who’s Lola?
“Oh well, shall we?” Sophia leads ahead as she entered the house with Dakota and Allen followed behind her. “Jesse?”
Inside the house is an ordinary sight of common room design not too far from an apartment room; living room with two beds and kitchen combined and finally a bathroom. Inside there seems to be stuff scattered on the floor as well, but at least it isn’t severe enough for the three visitors to walk around.
On one of the beds, there’s a guy sleeping pretty soundly. Sleeveless shirt and jeans, unarguably a slacker type of guy judging by the vibe exuded.
“It’s evening and she’s just sleeping… I expect no less…” Sophia could only shook her head. “HEY! Wake up!”
“Ugh… what… what?” Jesse rubbed his eyes. “What happened? Lola home already?”
“Not that… hey, is this bed vacant? We’ve got a new guy here just arrived,”
“Oh?” now Jesse finally woke up and there he noticed the new guy right away. The shy looks at least made Jesse a bit sure he’s no trouble but he would’ve wish it’s someone talkative and rowdy, maybe. Stood up, Jesse approaches the nervous guy. “So you’re just arrived, huh? Well, welcome to this humble abode of mine, I’m Jesse,”
“Nothing humble about this mess, you stupid,” Sophia expressed her disapproval.
“Hey, come on. At least you could still walk around inside! I’m cleaning up enough!”
“And what’s that glass marble for!? That’s not a part for robot model!”
“It’s, uh… shiny. I like it,”
“Really…” Dakota just jokingly walks outside, she looks disappointed.
“NOT YOU TOO!” Jesse already knows Dakota well. “Oh well… who are you then, my new roommate?”
“Allen…” head looked to the side, Allen at the very least could introduce himself enough.
“Well then, welcome to our happy shelter here, Allen!” Jesse slapped Allen’s shoulder. “Probably there’s nothing much here, but we live happy, that we could guarantee!”
“I’m sorry you have to be the roommate of this slob…” Sophia will never let it go for Jesse.
“Hey, gimme a break! An artist needs his own time to envision his masterpiece!”
“Oh well… Allen, there’s one more place I want you to see before you could rest. Is it alright?”
“Y-Yeah… it’s alright…” Allen nodded.
“Lemme join you guys at least,” Jesse picked up his baseball cap.
“Nice cap, Olivia made that for you?” Sophia noticed the cool hat.
“Yeah! Our proud caretaker always knows what’s good!”
“Not bad, not bad… well, shall we?”
+++
The clinic…
The four tinies entered the humble clinic. The view isn’t that much different from any ordinary clinics with beds, medicine cabinet, tools and everything.
“Hey Doc!” Sophia shouted. “He’s here!”
“Oh that’s him?” the guy in white coat stood up from one of the bed with a patient approaching Allen. “Hey there, you good?”
“Uh…. Yeah…”
“See those bandages on your body? That was my work when you were still unconscious earlier,” the Doc explained everything as Allen checks out. That’s another mystery solved for him. “What happened out there? You’re lucky Olivia found you first!”
“Give him a break, Doc. He’s still shaken,” Dakota speaks up.
“Oh, where are my manners! I apologize… well, I’m just glad you’re okay!” the Doc patted Allen’s shoulder. “Right! I need to go back treating my patient here!”
On the bed, there seems to be a guy probably around the same age as the four. His left leg is completely wrapped in bandages.
“Yo, Russell!” Jesse shouts at the injured guy. “How’s your leg?”
“Still hurts as hell! Nothing serious thou-AGH! Doc, come on!”
“Hold still, will you…” the Doc just continues wrapping more bandages on the injured part of his leg.
“What happened to him?” Allen asked Jesse witnessing the treatment.
“Sprained ankle,”
“Why though?”
“Mom! I’m home!” suddenly, a girlish shout could be heard from outside.
“Speak of the devil… looks like you’re gonna have your answer soon enough,” strangely enough, the fun gradually wiped from Jesse’s face hearing the girlish voice…
+++
“Mom! I’m home!”
A figure entered the living room, this one is much younger compared to the motherlike figure of Olivia. Her presence exuded youthful vibes, never fails in capturing the attention of every tinies in the living room. Dressed in a simple striped shirt that fit her form perfectly, the sleeves of the shirt ended just above her elbows. The shirt hugged her curves tightly, accentuating her shapely silhouette in a flattering way. The fabric stretched smoothly over her bust and waist, highlighting her hourglass figure while maintaining a comfortable look. Then her short pants, revealing her quite plump thighs alongside the gentle curve of her hips. No doubt taking a lot from her own mother’s body growth with all those huge features.
“Lola? I’m in the kitchen! Dinner will be prepared shortly!” Olivia’s voice echoed from the kitchen.
“Okay mom!” putting her backpack down, Lola sits on the sofa untying her converse and removing her socks. Her head turns to the tiny settlement in one corner of the room, smile quickly formed on her lips as she stood back up and walking toward the village of tinies inside this living room. Lola noticed everyone who still played football in the middle of the empty area immediately scattered into left and right of the village as the giant girl stood on the edge of their tiny settlement. Hands on her hips, confident smile on her face, Lola wriggling her barefoot toes in anticipation as her eyes scanned the whole village on both sides.
“Evening, everyone!” Lola waves her right hand down to the tinies below, the cheerful voice echoes throughout the tiny village. “Ready for this evening with me?”
Walking toward the empty space between the two tiny village, the towering girl turn around and sat down on the wooden floor, leans herself against the wall with legs stretched out in front of her. Even her thighs alone already taller than all the structures on both villages.
“Alright guys, my feet are tired, y’all know what to do,” leaning comfortably against the wall, Lola relaxed herself as she pulled out her phone from her pocket. Sure enough, probably about a dozen tiny men walks to the open area from both the left and right side. In front of them, wall of smooth skin that is her barefeet stood proud. The monolith looks enormous, smooth and a bit sweaty judging by the shines. Of course, already knows the task as usual, some tiny guys set up a ladder and leans it against the wall of bare sole of this giant girl, causing slight giggle to escape Lola’s mouth from the ticklish sensation as tinies and ladders made contact with her skin.
+++
“Evening, everyone!”
The four tinies walks out from the clinic only to see another towering figure stood tall in front of the whole village, yet this one looks much younger than Olivia judging by her looks and voice. Interestingly, Allen noticed how immediately everyone in the village running to and fro, even the peoples playing football on the empty space suddenly cleared the area in a hurry.
“What happened? Why’s everyone running?” clearly still new, Allen got startled by the abruptness of everything around him. “Who’s she?”
“Well… just you wait and see,” Sophia explained, albeit with a hint of anxiety written all over her face. “She’s Lola Hariel, Olivia’s daughter. A college girl and also the caretaker in this house alongside her mother,”
Much to Allen’s disbelief, the giant girl walks toward the empty space before she turns around and lowered herself until her humongous rear end planted on the wooden floor as she leans against the wall. Her landing alone caused a slight gust of wind to blew through the village. The sight of the flesh-colored wall that is her exposed legs towering over the structures around her certainly gives such an imposing visual for Allen to see. This mountainous young beauty had just divided the whole village with ease and this evening was just getting started.
“Alright guys, my feet are tired, y’all know what to do,” Lola spoke once more to the whole village.
“Well… it’s my turn now,” Jesse sighed, he removed his hat before handing it to Sophia. “I’ll be back. Don’t worry, Allen. You just sit there and watch how this village works in your first day now,”
“What does he mean by that?” Allen still confused by the whole thing.
“Just watch,” Sophia got nothing more to add.
Jesse, alongside bunch of men from the left side of the village, walks toward where Lola rested her feet while picking up a bucket and a sponge nearby. Her monolithic pair of bare soles towering over everything else in the whole tiny settlement, always such an impressive sight for Jesse and the others even if they’re already doing this many times already. Well, no time to waste, the giant girl needs some rubbing and cleaning. Ladders set up leaning against the building-sized right foot, Jesse decided he probably wanted to finish on the toes for today as he climbs up the ladder scaling this massive wall of flesh. Looking at the sole up close, the occasional shine of her little bit of sweats and bit of subtle black spots tells a story about this playful girl and her activities for her whole day outside this house.
Just like the other tinies, Jesse hangs the bucket on the side of the ladder and used the sponge to scrub away those dirt and sweats. Granted, at least the smell isn’t as intense as Lola’s sports day for now. It’s funny how Jesse already memorized Lola’s foot scent after doing this for how many times he kind of lost count… why didn’t Lola just go to the bathroom and wash her feet herself? A useless question, maybe. Jesse knows this giant girl always looking for an excuse to be pampered by the tinies of her own proud shelter, she just loves playing goddess over them everyday. Before Jesse continues his climb to the toes above, he pressed his right hand on the fleshy wall in front of him… soft, tender as usual. No doubt the result of hardworking tinies like Jesse and the others in maintaining the beauty of it.
With a fellow tiny guy below Jesse gave rubs to the bare sole, Jesse continues the climb until he reaches the crevice of Lola’s toes. It never cease to amaze Jesse how Lola’s big toe alone bigger than him, it’s always a surreal looks whenever he does the cleaning here.
“Jesse? I see you there!”
The cheerful call caused Jesse to shudder as he looked right across the miles long legs where Lola still leaning comfortably, waving her hand toward the tiny guy between her toes with a smile. Of course she knew, the sleeveless shirt and jeans getup has been Jesse’s signature for a long time here. Without warning, Lola scrunched her toes, causing Jesse to get squeezed in between as the big toe pressed on his back into the other toe. Suddenly it’s a whole world of hurt for the tiny cleaner as his body being compressed tight so much that Jesse could probably feel his back almost met with his front. Before he could be crushed though, Lola eased up her toes, letting the stunned tiny fell into the floor below but fortunately the other tinies are already prepared to catch him from the hard fall.
“Aw, man up… I thought a tough guy like you should be able to handle a girl like me,” Lola just giggles looking at the tinies scrambling to help Jesse as they carry him into the sideline.
Meanwhile from the village area, there’s Allen with a shocked face witnessing the whole thing.
“Wait… what!? Why did she do that to him!?” of course, Allen is completely flabbergasted.
“Well, here’s the thing, Allen,” Sophia tried to explain. “Lola here, she’s-“
“Sophiaaaaa! I want you today!” suddenly, Lola’s voice cut off their conversation.
“Oh crap…” Sophia rolled her eyes. “Looks like the explanation would have to wait,”
Walking from the village into the open area to the right side of Lola, tiny Sophia nervously approached the giant caretaker.
"C'mere, Sophia!" Lola said, snatching her teeny-tiny figure off her feet. The upward force nearly gave Sophia whiplash, her neck nearly snapping backwards. Her vision blurred, and her ears filled with rapid passing wind. Before her vision became clear, her body slammed against Lola's billowy, pink lips. Plush and softer than bouncy castle, the impact was still enough to knock the wind out of her lungs.
“MWAH!” done with her rather overwhelming greeting everytime, Lola retracts Sophia from her lips after about two or three seconds. It never fails to make her giggle whenever the tiny in her hands got taken aback after being rammed forcefully with her own lips, adding with Lola’s lip balm or what’s left of it probably being smeared all over the face and the clothing of Sophia now. Though it was not the first time Sophia had received such a greeting from Lola, it was never not exhausting to be handled so roughly by the bubbly girl. But Sophia knew her playtime wasn't over yet, with all the touching and smothering affection that entailed.
Lola couldn’t let go the fact how she’s the shortest one compared to her college close friends, she’s so tired of craning her head slightly up all day long just to spoke with them. Granted, Lola isn’t considered short at all in general, it’s just that her closest friends are coincidentally taller than her that a vague sense of envy formed within her. But here in her own sanctuary among tinies, she always felt like a goddess. Bigger than them in every way, stronger than them, her whole body alone is a force of nature for these unfortunate people born smaller than an inch. Specifically, she could imagine if Sophia somehow born normal instead of tiny, her body shape indicates that she could be taller than her currently. But the universe cruelly decided to toy with her fate in being born a tiny… unfortunately for her, it’s convenient enough for Lola to make Sophia as her own easy target for this evening.
Just like any evening, her cheerful smile gradually turned into a smug one as her mood slowly shifts into her dominant role among tinies. Now holding Sophia in her grip, she already secured at least one toy to accompany her for the whole evening. Look at her… so small that Lola herself is thousand times bigger than her in comparison, the pleading look with anxiety written all over Sophia’s face. So tiny, so delicate, so… helpless. The giant girl’s smug looks adding with her slightly careless grasp squeezing Sophia’s puny body firmly from all sides, it never fails in transmitting that degrading sense of suffocation and helplessness toward the tiny girl despite the playful intent.
Trying to make a subtle point in how scarily effortless it is for Lola to do whatever she wants to tiny Sophia in her grip, she lightly tightened her grasp. Squeal of pain escaped Sophia’s mouth, the coiled fist compressed her body evenly from all sides she could feel herself folded on the inside and her lungs tightened. For Lola, it’s merely a playful gesture despite being so oblivious how freakishly strong she is compared to the puny girl that she held on her hand due to the massive difference in size, her lightest squeeze is already the heaviest for Sophia to take already.
Easing off her grasp, Sophia gasps heavily for air. Fortunately, no serious injury comes to Sophia despite the crushing strength of the bigger girl. Lola just can’t help it; she’s enjoying this whole power trip so much.
“Okay guys! I think we’re about done here!” Lola commanded. Immediately the tiny guys on her feet scattered, returning to their tiny village left and right. With Sophia secured in her hand, Lola stood back up and walks off the tiny settlement area. Picking up the portable game console with her other hand, Lola setup the pillow on the couch and put tiny Sophia right on top of it.
Being thrown around so suddenly, Sophia now laying down on her front trying to stagger herself back to her feet but before she could even move an inch…
THUD
Laying down on her front, Lola settled herself comfortably with her boobs rested on top of the pillow, pinning Sophia under it as her left boob deformed a little, wrapping around the tiny body below. Never gets old, she could always rely on her own tiny girls to make herself feel superior in this house.
While Sophia has been pretty much already used to Lola’s rough games almost everyday, it’s never an easy challenge to endure it. Despite the softness of the meteor-sized boobs above, having it smother her body all over is pretty suffocating. Her face shoved into the pillow surface below as the diminutive girl trying her best to avoid herself being completely smushed underneath.
“Can you crawl yourself out down there? Come on! You can do it!” Lola turned on her handheld game console and proceed to play something on it while occasionally giggling at the small ticklish feeling below her left boob. At the very least Sophia knows well that Lola never had any intentions to harm them on purpose and this whole thing is just her way in trying to have fun with the tinies in the shelter, unfortunately she’s probably too naive in realizing how her enormous body is beyond the limit a tiny could handle in her games everyday.
+++
On the floor near the settlement border, there’s Allen and Dakota saw Lola relaxing on her couch with her feet kicking up and down playfully as her eyes completely focused on her own handheld console… with Sophia pinned under her.
“What is she doing!? We need to help Sophia!” Allen clearly worried about the well being of his fellow tinies there.
“Calm down, Allen,” Dakota didn’t look worried for even a split second. “This is just her way in playing with us. I assure you, Sophia will be fine,”
“The heck you mean by that!?”
“I’ll explain to you later, okay?”
Allen is currently fallen deep in despair once again after witnessing how Sophia is treated merely nothing more but a bigger one’s chew toy. Why even live when we’re all just ended up being a giant’s plaything anyway, he thought.
+++
Minutes passes by, Sophia tried her best crawling her way out from under the massive pressure of Lola’s ballistic. Gasps of struggle accompanied her effort in trying to get out of this whole predicament as two kinds of pillow pinning her from both above and below. Not to mention the familiar body smell of this giant girl who had just arrived home from all day outside penetrates through the garment above her, granted at least it’s not as sweaty and smelly as her sports day but still this salty outdoor scent forced through the nose of tiny Sophia a lot of times already, she won’t even bother anymore.
Fresh air. Finally, Sophia’s head and shoulder pops out from the crushing pressure underneath Lola’s humongous boobs.
“Oh! You made it!” Lola got distracted from her game session as she looks below to see the tiny girl made it out from her challenge. Sure enough, the rest is easy for Sophia as she pulled the rest of her body out until she’s completely out, laying tired facing up before she’s greeted by Lola’s smiling face above.
“As expected from my lovely Sophia, congrats!” Lola said with giant grin on her face, noticing the tired tiny girl gasping for air below. “To this day I still just couldn’t imagine… how it feels to be so small like you when everything around you is bigger… like, how can you even survive when a normal decided to do something with you?”
Trying to prove a point, Lola lifts her body up a little and drags herself forward… before lands herself on the pillow once again. Slight yelp escaped Sophia’s mouth before Lola’s boobs silenced the gummy bear-sized girl with a thudding sound. Thank goodness for the pillowy surface below, denying Sophia from the risk of being crushed into bloody mess under the immense weight. As Lola felt the subtle movement of Sophia’s struggle underneath, she propped her head trying to get comfortable while putting away her gaming console.
“For example, you finally escaped after minutes of struggle there. But all I need is just to scoot myself forward and look, you’re trapped again,” Lola’s mundane tone didn’t help. “See how lucky you are inside this safe haven here?”
“Lola! I need your help here in the kitchen!” Olivia shouted from the kitchen.
“Coming!” Lola responded. “Well, too bad our playtime got cut short. Oh well… nice playing with you today, Sophia!”
Lifting herself up, there’s Sophia clearly tired already from her playtime with Lola. Grabbing tiny Sophia and stood back up, Lola walks back toward the tiny settlement, crouching down before putting Sophia safely on the empty space near the border. Much to the surprise of no one, Sophia immediately collapsed on her front.
“Goodbye!” Lola got back up and leaves the living room.
“Sophia!” Dakota alongside Allen runs toward where Sophia trying to recover herself, now crawling on all four clearly exhausted.
“I-I’m okay, guys…” Sophia looks completely dizzy. “That last one by her badonkas, took the whole wind outta me… wooo…”
“Rough as always…” Dakota just sighed as she put Sophia’s arm over her shoulder waking back to the village.
“So, this has been going on for three months now?” Allen asked out of curiosity.
“The first batch said so,” Dakota said. “Heck, they got it much worse, they said. Since there are no other tinies yet, they’re the one constantly being her playthings every night,”
“Oh man…” there stood Jesse in front of the three, welcoming them back into the village looks a bit staggered as well. “Seriously, even my father didn’t beat me that hard,”
“You’re still alive, that’s all that matters,” Dakota certainly used to it already.
“But… why, guys?” Allen still not convinced. “Y’all allowed yourself to be her toy, just like that? Why?”
“This,” Jesse pointed at the village area. Suddenly, lamps brightened the whole settlement as string lights decorating the roads between houses and buildings. “Electricity, water system, even plumbing… Lola made it possible for us. She somehow made it possible to made the lamps light itself automatically every exact evening hour,”
“When it comes handling tinies like us, I agree she might be clumsy as heck,” Dakota added. “But she’s a DIY genius, able to do more than just building tiny houses. Those clinic tools? Yeah, Lola made that too with Doc’s help,”
“So that’s why…” Sophia slowly recovered. “It’s kinda an unwritten rule, basically she’s allowed to do whatever to us as our way in ‘paying her back’ for all that she does in making this settlement an extraordinary one. Hell, even she’s able to convince her mother about it, since this girl literally managing the entire technical aspects of our shelter… so in the end, we’re basically hers,”
“Still though, you’re okay with this!?” Allen’s trauma couldn’t accept it at all when it comes to normals’ interaction like this.
Sophia just chuckled. “…you’re new here, Allen,”
“This is insane, though!”
“What? We’re being born tiny is not insane already?” not even Jesse trying to deny it.
“He’s right. We’re tiny, Allen.” Sophia said. “You’ve seen the world out there! What can we do against them anyway?”
“But…” before Allen could even spout his own opinion, Sophia raised her hand gesturing him to stop.
“I know my place already in this world… if it’s my destiny to born this small, fine. But one thing is for sure… I won’t give up,” Sophia’s determination seems to affect Allen. “I don’t care if Lola saw me and everyone else here as mere toy for her own amusement, but I know how much she cared about us in providing this humble shelter with all these goods. And Allen, if you ask me, I’d happily do this anytime than risking myself out there being tired, hungry and in constant danger of being killed in the most horrible way possible,”
“In rougher term, the lesser evil… that is, if you still consider her evil. Not me though,” Jesse added. “Like Sophia said, I’d rather be here than anywhere else,”
“As much as I hate to admit it… I must agree with Sophia here,” Dakota added. “We’re vulnerable as hell being tiny and I know there’s probably a better shelter out there for someone like us. But if this is all I could get for now, then I’ll gladly have it more than anything else,”
“Tell him what Lola did to you first time,” Jesse grinned.
“Ugh, she… shoved me into her… yeah, fill the fucking blanks yourself,” Dakota crossed her arms in disgust remembering the experience. “I said I love her just to joke around, but she took it wrong AAAAAARGH!”
“That’s Lola for you,” Sophia chuckled. The story never fails to make her laugh. “Smartass, clumsy, scatterbrain, all at once… and she’s big anyway. Like I said earlier, what could we do?”
“But don’t you worry about her, Allen,” Jesse said trying to reassure his terrified friend. “Despite all those… ‘horrifying’ stories, she never killed anyone here so far,”
“Surprisingly, yeah…” Sophia said. “Well, maybe a few minor injuries here and there since she’s can be so careless many times, the worst is broken bones but it’s very rare, I assure you,”
Disbelief written all over Allen’s face. What kind of madhouse is this, he thought.
“Dinner is ready!” Olivia’s voice cut through their conversation. High above, Olivia approached the corner of the living room bringing a tray. Placing it on the floor right on the empty space, dozens of tiny plates filled up with beef stew sighted. The three tinies; Bruno, Doug and Amanda who previously Allen saw helping in the kitchen also on that tray.
“YEAH! Finally!” Jesse runs first toward the giant tray along with the other tinies.
“Well, shall we?” Dakota walks off as well.
“Now you’ve seen everything, Allen,” Sophia shrugs playfully. “All I could say is… try to enjoy your stay here, let’s have fun!”
Giving one last smile, Sophia also walks toward the dinner tray. Allen, still pretty much shocked by the true nature of this shelter, trying to grasp the whole reality of his own situation. But of course, he’s immediately distracted by the sight of Lola returns from the kitchen, seemingly into another door through the living room. Allen could only wonder if someday Lola picked him as his plaything… will he be ready?
The thought alone made him shudder…
