Chapter 5
- Why did I shake when he did? Should I just tell Mom? I don't want her to worry about me.
- And I don't want to leave here.
- Should I tell Kira about it tomorrow? I think I will.
- I went back to bed and sat on it.
- Why did he tell me to kill dad! He also said something about them keeping secrets from me.
- There is no way I am going to kill my own dad!
- There is no way I am doing that!
- The mark at my breast.. I hate it! I hate seeing it.
- I kept thinking about everything till I slept off.
- Next day
- Kira p.o.v
- Oh jeez.. I said stretching up my body. What a nice sleep.
- Time to go to school. I am going to miss Kathy today.
- Should I sneak into her room and ask her what school she will be going to?
- No.. what if she is not in her room. "I went to the bathroom, brush and bathed".
- Went to the kitchen to prepare noodles. I don't have time to cook real food. I will just go for fast food.
- After eating the noodles I pack some for Kathy.
- I won't close the door Incase she comes here I will leave some message for her. I will write it on paper and put it where she can easily see it.
- ***
- After I am set for school.. my mind kept telling me to sneak in Kathy's room.
- At last I did it and found myself in her room.
- "She's not in her room? Where is she? Kathy, are you there? "
- I said checking her bathroom.
- She isn't there either.
- Should I go back or stay here till she comes to her room?
- Jeez.. Kira, you must be joking, do you know when she will?
- My sneaking in can't go in vain like that. I have to leave here and try calling her without her mum or dad seeing me.
- I closed the door behind me and I heard a loud voice. Kathy's she seems like she is in a fight with her parents.
- "I was about to go.. when I heard her yelling. Mum, dad did I have powers? Tell me! Tell me the truth.. why did I have this weird hair"
- Kathy, uhmm.. hmmm
- "Dad said his voice trembling"
- He suddenly stopped and he put his face down.
- I look at mum's face. She has this face telling me she has nothing to say.
- You know what! Continue keeping things from me! I will keep mine too! Fuck you too!
- "I yelled crying and went straight to my room".
- I found Khalid sitting on my bed in Kira's form.
- Khalid! What do you want this time around?
- Can you just leave me alone! You can come another time since you won't stop coming.
- Kathy, it is me Kira.
- Are you sure?
- Yes, are you hallucinating or what? What do you mean .. Why do you take me for Khalid?
- "Kira," I said, throwing myself in her arms crying.
- What is Kathy.
- My parents are keeping things from me.. and, and this guy he has been following me with seems dangerous .. What am I saying? He is dangerous.
- He told me to kill my dad and he also did this to me.
- "I removed the top I wear and then reveal the marks on my b**b". He did this to me.
- Kira did this to me. I said crying and hugging her tightly holding to myself not minding the position I am in.
- After crying my eyes out. "I pulled away from the guy and I scoffed when I saw Khalid".
- So you were Kira.
- No.. I just disguise myself has her.
- Kira is at school in her class solving some maths questions on the board.
- Kira p.o.v
- I felt bad after leaving Kathy's room. How I wished I could stay with her she needs me especially in the condition she is in.
- Too bad she doesn't have a phone. I would have called her.
- I took a cab to school.
- Throughout the ride I have been thinking about what she said to her parents.
- Did she truly have powers like she said, she said her parents kept this from her.
- And the last thing she said she said she won't tell her parents her own secret .
- Does she have a secret also?
- "Miss Kira Dickson" stood up and worked this on the board for us.
- Hey, hey the reach is talking to you. "The person beside me said.
- Huh? Don't tell me I have been thinking about Kathy since I paid the cab and entered the class.
- I don't even know when the teacher came into the class.
- "Please, what did she say?" I whisper to her.
- She said something about you solving some questions on the board" . Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Kathy's mum p.o.v
- Honey, why don't we tell Kathy what she needs to know.
- We can't because of her powers if we tell her we know he is going to know.
- We must not allow her to know that he has powers.
- If we do, they will come for her.
- And she can't use it now until she is 19 years old.
- We can't tell her yet.
- But I can't take it anymore! She's hurt and I don't want to see her in pain.
- I hate seeing her in pain.
- "Come here," he said, pulling me in a hug. We just have to wait 3 weeks and four days.
- But I pray before that a miracle should happen.
- "A miracle? Like what?". I said, raising my head from his chest to look at his face.
- Like she is finding a person who will love her and protect her from evil.
- "Hmm I pray that happens also." I said with hope in me.
