"My dear, I got a plan, but we just can't go anywhere today, we might be leaving tomorrow."
Mom said. She was even happy that I had made that I have helped her solve the problem of approaching me. She had been wondering about how I will make the decision of following her to Mr. Matt's place, now that I have shown to her that I want to leave this house, I don't even mind where will go, all I cared for was to leave.
"Do you know Mr. Matthew? That man we met at the cinema."
Mom asked. I wonder what she was expecting, how was I supposed to know him? Did she even tell me about him? Yes I indeed know about him, and I have also heard her think of carrying out some unacceptable acts, but for now, even me, I in a frantic need to leave this place.
"Yeah, I remember him, so? What about him?"
I asked as if I do not already know that which she had in mind,
"Ehm... You know that you just said that you want to leave here, so I have thought of it now, in fact, I had a quick think and decided that, since the man is my friend, and you need to leave here we should go to his place, and stay for a while until we get a new place."
Mom said. I just looked at mom and watched her speak, ut was very funny how she tried to pin that on me, something that she had predetermined, she had preplanned it, now with this happening she used it as leverage to turn it on me.
"Mom, stop that, I am so not in the mood, I have been given the deepest insult of my life already, so, if you want to talk to me mom, I will advise that you say it how they are, after all, I am desperate, I will accept any condition as far as I am far from Cynthia for now."
So I said to her, she sat there looking at me, acting so confused, she looked at me and asked:
"Damian, what are you talking about, you are throwing me off balance already. Can you please put me in line with your point?"
"Mom, just tell me that the man you call Mr. Matt is the new father that you have been planning of, yes, I know everything, you are planning to give me another father, you fear that I will pick Dad over you, for that you want to replace him in my life, mom, that Is actually a wrong move, but just know that whatever the plan is, I am in, but know that I am only playing along for now, because of the turbulence before us, once this is done, or dad says otherwise, just know that I'll opt-out of the deal immediately, so, please have this at the back of your mind."
So I said, she was actually shocked and dumbfounded to hear me say all these.
"So...s...so you...you went into my mind again? Despite my warnings? I can't believe this."
"Mom, please this is not the time for this, do that which you must."
I added as I cut her stammering words shot. Mom could not believe herself, she could not believe that I could stand up to her in such a manner, actually, I did that in the heat of anger over what Cynthia did to me, my normal self cant talk when my mom talks. My poor mother who had only and always had my interest at heart quickly stood up took her phone and started scrolling to find a number as she left, but she turned and gave me a very serious look and she said
"Hey! Let this be the last time you will ever get into my mind, I will pardon this because I understand the atmosphere and the condition that we are in right now."
Mom said and she bounces ahead into the room that was designated her, the same room near to mine. When she left I had to start making a ponder, I thought of what Dad might think about this, knowing through we'll that my father the Aquaking can see us from beneath the sea, I feared what his reaction might be towards this little big act us. What episode of life could this be? How is he going to be towards me, how can I play a son to a strange man? Naa, there is no way I can do that, I and definitely not doing that, yea, I will play along with mom's game, but I will never call him dad, and I will try not to let him know that I am the son of the all-powerful Aquaking. But he had better be nice to mom, else, I will give him the greatest fright of his life.
After the last encounter with those creatures from the deep Bermuda triangle, I have come to realize and comprehend how to switch on and off my powers, I think that it only requires me to use them more often and I will be perfect in it.
Later that evening after Mr. Bright was already back from his workplace, mom went to meet aunty Paula in the kitchen to discuss the resolution of the discussion we both had. But before then, aunty Paula had managed to cover up for all the things that happened earlier, she made sure that she never left any stone uncovered, she even dared her daughter Cynthia to tell her dad. And we also, we cleaned up my room, mom and I, we both cleaned the whole places, we even switched in the fan so the breast could dry the mattress a little then the next day when thee December sun will be out we will have to sun it. It really was not that easy to get that place cleaned, there was a lot of disorganization in it, and the wetness was bad, and there was also the dead stench that I perceived in the room.
