My Child Has Grown Wings

"T-They came with the package-" 

SLAP 

"Don't refer to your child as a package! Now big sis is going to spoil her, so expect her back in a few weeks!" Amanda said after slapping my shoulder and then stealing Hepha as she began to give her a tour of the palace. 

"Geez…"

… 

As I was cuddling in bed with Loni and Lisa, all of a sudden, the door was slammed open, surprising us as we were all pretty much about to fall asleep. 

"Mommy!" I heard somebody shout, and I jolted up from the bed.

"Hepha?" I muttered as I rubbed my eyes, and all of a sudden, she lunged towards me, taking me back down to the bed with her. 

"Mommy! Guess what?!" 

Is she formulating more words? What the hell… Does that mean Amanda has been teaching her, or did she receive a teacher? 

"W-What?" I asked, a bit shocked by the situation. 

Hepha turns around, revealing a pair of smoke-colored wings that matched the tattoos lining her body.
