The Angriest Woman in the World! (GxG)

Chapter 7

Aileen and I patiently awaited Hannah's presence. Luckily, she was still up and agreed to see me as soon as she could.

   "For the record, I hate this plan." Aileen said.

   I nervously paced around the room. "For the hundredth time; point taken."

   Then, there was a knock on the door.

   We froze, sharing a look before I slowly headed towards the door.

   I opened it, seeing Hannah standing on the other side, arms raised to knock again. "Oh, hey, is everything ok?" She asked, lowering her arm.

   I took a quick glance back at Aileen. "Yes, uh, come in."

   Hannah followed me inside, immediately spotting Aileen. "Hello, you're Mikayla's aunt, right?"

   Aileen and I shared another quick glance before she stood.

   "Actually, that's why we called you over." Aileen said, gesturing for Hannah to sit.

   She did so nervously, me sitting down next to her. "What's all this about?"

   Hannah looked between the two of us, confusion clouding her features.

   I opened my mouth, but nothing came out.

   Aileen rolled her eyes. "I'm not her aunt... I'm her guardian angel."

   Silence filled the room, then, as Hannah looked between us.

   Then, she started to laugh. "Alright, that was pretty funny... What was the point of the joke, though?"

   Aileen crouched down in front of Hanna, looking deep into her eyes. "This isn't a joke..."

   Hannah glanced at me nervously as Aileen raised her hand, holding it in front of Hannah's forehead.

   She looked on in amazement as a bright, white light hummed from behind Aileen's palm.

   "Wow..." She said, the light glowing, reflecting off her eyes.

   Then, she quickly stood, distancing herself from us. "Holy shit! What the hell was that! What the hell are you!" She panicked.

   I stood then, inching slowly towards Hannah. "Listen, just try to relax, ok?"

   "Stay away from me!" She yelled, backing herself into a corner.

   "I told you she wouldn't get it." Aileen said.

   I raised my hand at her. "You're not helping. Just, give me a minute."

   She rolled her eyes, folding her arms over her chest.

   I refocused my attention on Hannah. "It's ok, she's not going to hurt you..."

   Hannah shook her head. "You didn't see what I saw... The things she showed me... I can't unsee that..."

   I turned towards Aileen. "What the hell did you show her?"

   She shrugged, biting her nail. "The last few million years or so... All at once..."

   I shook my head. "C'mon, really? You're purposely sabotaging this."

   "Well, how else was she gonna believe me?" Aileen asked.

   "I don't know, make a flame with your hand or something." I replied.

   She scoffed. "I'm not a witch."
