Uncontrollable(HUGE REMAKE)

Chapter 14

Thinking about what happened last night makes me forget what's happening to my life. I wonder when am I going to see him again. This is my first time to feel this kind of feeling. Then, I suddenly realize that I have to visit my mom's sister today. We're suppose to leave at 9:30 because my mom told us that she's going to help her sister to her friends gathering. It's 8:00 so I rush to the bathroom to brush my teeth, and I look at myself in the mirror. I can feel my lips spreading every time I remember that kiss. It's very intimidating and very sweet, and it can make you feel desperate. After brushing my teeth, I went to the facial sink and it automatically cleaned my face. I went to my closet to decide what i'm going to wear, then I heard a soft knock at my door.

"May I come in?" My mom asked.
"You may," I answered back. My body is covered on a bathrobe, and it's making me shiver because of the cold air that is covered on my room. I heard my mom's footstep towards me. As she stands in front of me, I gave her a huge smile.
"Good morning," she said, giving me a delighted face.
"Good morning," I answered back, grinning cheerfully.
"So, what are you planning to wear?" She asked me. My chin is shaking because of the coldness.
"I re-really don't know," I said, stuttering.
"Well," she said, pointing out the blue dress with a white ribbon hanging on my closet. "You can wear this one," she added, pulling out the dress. The dress shows my curves and I'm not really comfortable wearing it.
"Mom, that is too skinny," I said, shaking my head.
"It will look perfect to you," she suggested. "Go to your fitting room and try it on. I wanna see it," she commanded then my respond is to walk towards the fitting room. My mom gets to pick what kind of dress I should wear when we have to go on a party, which is making me embarrassed sometimes. A minutes later, I'm already wearing the dress. It's very tight. I can't wear a dress like this. I walk towards my mom to let her see if the dress is gonna be perfect fit for me.
"So?" I asked.
"It is perfect, Kezia. You're so beautiful," she said, then gave me a hug. Then suddenly, somebody knocked on the door.
"Mom? Where's my camera?" Atticus asked. He keeps knocking and it irritates me.
"Okay, I'll see you later. Fix yourself, okay?" She said as she walks away. He keeps knocking the door as if we didn't hear it the first time.
"I'm coming!" She scream, then she opened the door wide; wide enough for Atticus to see what I'm wearing.
"Wow, Kezia. You look so feminine. Finally!" He teases. I never tried to dress up like this, so maybe that's the reason why he said that.
"Well, mom picked the dress," I said, looking at her and giving her a huge smile.
"Okay, we have to go. Your sister is gonna make herself look irresistible to the party," my mom said pushing Atticus and closed the door. I looked myself at the mirror, and I can see a blonde girl with grey-eyes, wearing a too tight blue dress. I look like someone else. I went to the closet to change the dress that my mom picked. I can't wear it even if I look good on it. While I'm checking my closet, I realize that my mom is not gonna be happy. She'll be mad. I'm just going to stick with this dress.
I pick my comb to brush my hair. Combing my hair makes me calm and can put me on peace. While I'm brushing my hair, I felt my left arm got itchy and when I looked at it, I saw an odd tattoo colored red and black that I've never seen before. It is big and very noticeable. When my gaze is going down to my arm, I saw a blue tattoo that is designed a feather. Why do I have this? How am I going to hide this!? This can't be happening. Is this part of the Uncontrollable puberty!? I put my comb down and touch my left tattooed arm. I don't know what's happening. While my right palm is exploring my left arm, the tattoo suddenly went bright that made me fall and scream. The light is fulgent.

"Kezia? Is everything okay honey?" My mom asked. I shake my head and about to say no, but instead I said "I'm fine."

I don't want her to know what's happening to me or else, she'll know that her daughter is Uncontrollable. While I'm laying down at the floor, I slowly sit up and my eyes move to look at my left arm with this very bright tattoo. After a minute, the fulgent light in the tattoo is gone. My tears suddenly roll down at my cheeks. I don't know what to do. This is not good. Is this tattoo have to do with the great assassin last night? No, I don't think so. The truth is, I don't know. I need my dad or Mr. Clarkson to tell them what's happening and to ask them what to do. Time is running, and I know that I have to go out of this room and go to a party with my family. But how am I going to face them with this tattoo? While I'm thinking what to do, I heard Lisa's bark. She's wiggling her tail, as if she wants to help me.
"You got something, Lisa?" I asked her, then she run towards me.
"Bark!" She said. Her robot tail is still wiggling.
"What?" I asked, smiling at her while rubbing my cheek to remove my tears. She gave me my cellphone and there's a video. Bark, bark! She wants me to watch the video.
"You want me to watch the video?" I asked, just to make sure.
"Yes, bark! Watch the video," she said. I touch the screen for it to play. "Uncontrollable can use their powers to make people remember or to not remember about them. They can make an illusion for them to not recognize them or to not recognize what they have. Uncontrollable are very. . ." I touch the screen to stop the video. That's it. I can make an illusion for them to not see my tattoo. I remember what I did to my brother, to let him forget I saved him. Should I use that trick? But what if I do it the wrong way?
"I'm just going to put makeup on it. It's the safest one," I tell Lisa. She made noises. Maybe she want me to use my power.
"I can't use my power anymore. I promise my dad to not use it," I said then I stand up to get the makeup. When I already found it, I started rubbing it to my left arm. After rubbing it hard to my arm, the tattoo disappear.
I grab my jacket and went out of my room. I wish it's not noticeable. I went straight to the family room and saw Hugo fixing his tie. I looked at him and smile at him, then he saw me.
"Hey Kezia," he said, waving at me. "How'd you sleep?"
"Good. Nice outfit," I said, then he nods and gave me a grin.
"Thanks! You look so beautiful today," he added.
"Thank you," I said, then went away to find dad. I want to tell him what just happened to me at my room. I went to the kitchen, hoping that he's in there, but he's not. I sat down at one of the couch in the family room, waiting for him to show up. When Hugo is done fixing his tie, he sat down at the couch with me.
"So, have you been thinking what you want to take at college?" He asked, giving me a big smile.
"I'm gonna be a soldier," I said with a serious face. His face suddenly turn into a serious expression.
"You want to be a soldier? Why? That is the hardest job ever," he said, shaking his head.
"I just want to have a huge adventure," I said, nodding at him. "You only live once, and I have to enjoy it because maybe tomorrow I'll be dead."
