MIAI didn't leave immediately. I waited till my dad woke up. I'd be spending a lot of time at the hospital so it won't be nice for him to wake up and not see me by his side. He woke up that afternoon, groaning as he moved around and I reached forward to help him sit up. As he saw my face, he smiled and pulled me in for a hug, holding me very tight like I would disappear. “Hey dad, it's okay, I'm here. You're safe. You're safe.”He was breathing heavily in my ear and I knew he was trying so hard not to cry. That bastard had made me see my father in a way that he had never been before. It scared me but I had to be strong for him. “Mia, did he hurt you? Did anything happen to you? He told me you came to the house. What happened, are you okay?” “Dad, you're the one who got kidnapped. Why are you worried about me? Silas crossed the line, he did something I never imagined he would do. I should have known that he was a scum bag and nothing good would ever come out of him. I underestima

XAVIERHe hadn't opened his eyes since I came here. Kaan and William were in the room, sitting quietly. Kaan hadn't spoken a word to me since I came.in. He sat by Xerxes’’s side, holding his hand tightly and never taking his eyes orr him, it was like he was begging him not to die. When I walked in, he looked at me but didn't say a word. It was very obvious that I already knew about it and he obviously wasn't happy with that. I didn't force him to say anything though. He must have felt very betrayed seeing that neither of us told him about it. William however was very vocal about his unhappiness. He spent every hour of me being there cursing me out like it would make the situation any better. He raised his voice, pointed his finger at me and even threw me against the wall, grabbing my collar and wrapping it around my neck tightly. “I told you guys that this kid was up to no good. Bringing him into this family after what his father had done to us was the stupidest thing ever! His

XAVIER“You should know I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I shouldn't be blaming him but I told him to tell you guys before it was too late. Even if he didn't tell the others, he should have told you. It wasn't in my place to do anything that's why I didn't. I'm really sorry things turned out like this.” Kaan sighed, facing the window with his hands resting on the sills. His eyes were heavy and he had equally heavier eye bags from not sleeping at all. He remained at my uncle's side all through barely saying a word except when William was going crazy. It hit him hard, I could see it, he hadn't been expecting something like that. It had obviously been a long time since someone died in the family and he was finding it hard to cope with it. “It's not your fault. I know how Xerxes can be. He's my brother. It's just that I didn't think I'd be losing him this early. With the amount of money we have, cancer would have been easily treatable if he had said something quickly. This wou

MIAStepping into the hospital brought a sense of deja Vu again since it had been a very long time since I'd been here. All those months spent in this chemical strong place had given me memories that I would never forget. Memories I wished I never had.Now, I was walking in, not as one who had the problem but one who seemed to have the solution. “The moment you let the doubt settle strongly in your mind, you begin to fail.” Those were the last words Magma told me as I left the house. My heart seemed set on what I was about to do, knowing that it would be very hard for me to accomplish but I'd never know unless I tried. What I would hate to do was to give him and his family false hope. They didn't deserve to go through all that after everything. As I stood outside the door, I could hear some murmuring inside but the words weren't very clear. Maybe I should have called before coming. They would be trying to sort a thing or two right now and popping in won't be the best idea. For th

MIAMy throat was closing up, except this time around, William didn't have his hands around my throat. It was like my own body was attacking me all over again. It scared the living daylights out of me to stand there and instead of Xavier being by my side and trying to figure out if his uncle did succeed in killing me, I was seeing Chris. How the hell did I even remember what happened? I was unconscious and not coherent, how did my consciousness pick this up? “Mia, please talk to me. Look at me, what is wrong? I'm sorry I didn't come out earlier but please talk to me.”Even if he had come out earlier, it wouldn't have stopped what was going to happen. My knees gave way and I fell to the floor, holding the sink to try to steady myself but that failed. Tears blurred my eyes but I could still see the panic very evident on his face and it scared me too. “I'm sorry, it's not you. It's me…I saw something. Chris, I saw him that night. It was crazy. He came at me, he hit me so hard and I

MIA“What if I told you that there was something we could do? I mean, I can do.”The look of hope on his face was impossible to miss. Even in his weak state, that was the first bit of emotion I saw on him. He tried to sit up right but it didn't work so he just gave up. There were too many wires hooked up to him to even bother doing that. “What do you mean, Mia?” I looked down at my hands, not being able to look in his eyes. It seemed like he had placed his life in my hands and now, it was up to me to decide what to do with it. How would I promise a man life? What if I can't deliver? “Xerxes, all I'm going to do is try. I can't watch you go through things like this and not say anything, you mean so much to Xavier and I didn't realize it till now. He also didn't realize it, it's too soon for him to let you go. So I'll make a sacrifice for him and heal you. I'm going to try with everything in me but I'll put my back in and make sure that I help you and I can't let you die, not while

MIAAfter that, Xavier and Kaan returned with the food that Xerxes had forgotten he asked for.I could tell his stomach churned as he looked at the food, having to eat it. Xavier stood at the door, waiting for me to walk up to him. “I'll see you soon, Xerxes. Will you wait for me?” He smiled as he looked up from the plate. “We have a deal, I won't go back on my word.”Good. Imagine asking a sick man not to die just so I can come and heal him. How interesting. As Xavier closed the door behind me, I removed the cloth from around my neck, the one he had given me so Xerxes won't have questions. If he had seen it, I would have just lied to him that it was a really bad allergic reaction. He would have called me out on my bullshit though because he's not easily gullible. “What were you guys talking about? What deal did you have?” He looked really invested so I told him everything, including his uncle's response. Somehow, I was expecting his expression to lighten, hearing that his uncl

MIAI got to work immediately, reading as much books as I can about healing not just injuries, but sicknesses. Magma was a big help, pointing me to where her books were so I could have access and practice before I went ahead to do it. For hoursnon end, I flipped through pages, reading and practicing spells that if neeve heard of before and were too difficult for me to pronounce. But I had my mind set to it. I wouldn't give up. Eventually, I learned that it was nothing close to what I'd performed on Xavier. It was a whole lot different. Sicknesses have an energy, a very dark energy that settled at the center of that person soul and that's why it's able to spread evenly out into the body and get rooted so deeply that it's hard to heal. That's also why it was more complicated to take care of. All I needed to do was learn how to suck the energy out of that person soul. That was the easy part. The hard part was what I would do with that energy. Often times, when a dark energy has be

MIAEveryone was in the room, everyone that was important in what was going on. The room was tensioned and very quiet due to the amount of thoughts that were presently going through everyone's brains. But how could it not? Well, one person wasn't thinking. “Still beats how out of everyone in this room, including you Xerxes, you'd actually buy into the bullshit this kid is saying. I mean, how could you believe what she said just because she's done one or two little tricks? Anyone with access to a spell book can do the stupid shit she did. But cancer? He'll, not even the doctors could fix you so what makes you think this kid will?” Andrea stepped in, putting her hand on his shoulder to stop him but he pushed it away. “Leave me the hell alone. It's cancer, not a little cut. I thought you wanted to die earlier. Why change your mind when you have a few days left? I'm sure she has a motive for doing this. It just sickens me that I'm the only one left here with a brain that actually work

MIAAll the curtains had been dropped and the windows were down. Xerxes lay still on the bed, his breathing even, letting the pot of liquid on his chest rise and fall slowly. His eyes were closed as if he was expecting what was to come, having accepted his fate. Elara was still in the corner. “Do you know what to do first?” To the best of my knowledge, just say the words and let the spirit do its thing. She took my silence for a no. “Place your hand on his chest so you can feel it's movement. If it's moving, then it means it's very active. If it's not, that means it's strength is out.”I walked over to the side of the bed and places my hand on his chest and just one second later, I withdrew it with such speed that scared even me. “What is it? What's the wrong?” “It's moving, it's moving fast. It's generating heat from the inside, it's like he's about to combust.” Hearing that last part, Xerxes's eyes flew open but he didn't move. My attention went back to Elara. “That mean
