Chapter 35 Momma gat your Back
"So that means I would continue to see things then?"
I asked with a gloom face. I thought this was going to pass,how can I continue to see what's not there. Do Nature what me to go mad?,is it a curse or a blessing?All this questions kept running through my mind.
"Yes dear."
She replied with a look on her face and that even made me to feel worse
Arrrrrrr!what have I do now huh?,how could I be so stupid. This is not what I bargained for?.
"So how come the prince died"
I asked wanting to know more.
"You both were each other's life,he dies, you die,but to answer to why he was able to be killed,the mantle of coverage was lifted the night you both mated leaving him to be vulnerable. Your destiny was entangled with his. Remember your were created to destroy immortality and he was immortal so sleeping with him made him mortal again."
She further explained. She got the patient,all these questions and she is not getting tired of answering them.
"So mom,why then do I have the power of manipulation?"
I could not help but to ask again, curiosity getting the best of me
"For you to be able to kill lord Xexes hundred years back,you were bestowed upon the power of manipulation. You can read mind,control your environment and twist things to your taste"
She said.
Suddenly everything changed. Two days back I had a normal life,but now it's over. It's funny how we wished for things and they come to pass. I have always wished to do something extraordinary and now that it's here with me, I don't know what to do with it. I tugged at my hair,stood up and sat down. All these while Mom was watching me.
I hope to find anything about the prince and I would do all it takes, I feel guilty that it's my fault he died,the last I could do is help defeat his uncle but how?
Suddenly I am turning superhero,in the sense that I want to fight an immortal.
I have really had a long day,first this morning,second the cab guy,thirdly,the two men from my dream and now a whole history that is not just a history and at the same time I am trying to figure all these out.
It was late and going back to my apartment is not an option so I decided to sleep here.
"Mom I am sleeping over"
I said. Maybe staying around mom will help me feel better.
"It's ok dear,you are welcome here always"
She said and gestured for me to move closer to her,I move closer and she enveloped me in her arms.
"No matter what happens,we will excel through. its me and you against the world now and I will do any thing to keep you save. Know that momma gat your back, alright?"
She told me while stroking my back.
I withdrew from her hug and kissed her cheeks
"I know mum,thanks alot"
What could I do without you and Nora, speaking of Nora. I don't know how she is going to take this whole thing. Her bestie friend turning superhero and at that,she being a witch. Funny enough. I laughed really hard and mom stared at me like I have gone mad.
"I am mad, mom"
I said while climbing the stairs.
I continued laughing and went upstairs to my room. Mom would not understand that I am laughing at my dear life. It's still hard for me to wrap my hand on what is going on.
I got to my old bedroom and everything is still intact. I always visit but I have not slept her for the past one year. This is were I had my secret dreams,lived my girlie life. This room was my get away from the world. Each time I felt the world have wronged me,I always come here and complained to myself. I will forever cherish here.
I say down and I admired the girlie bedspread. It was my 19th birthday present from mom. It's still new all thanks to mom.
The room has not changed a bit, I guessed only thing that changed is me.
I wished I could be told what to do, I am lost at the moment. I caressed the amulet on my neck and smiled at the memory.
"Whenever you in need of help,talk to it,it will take your worries away"
She said and that has been the way it is each time I need help. The amulet given to me by that old woman has been my worry absorber.
