Since he couldn't just stay at the police station, Willow offered him to stay at her house until he could return with Luz. Carlos only had to accept the invitation, he did not seem that he would return to his world soon.

Willow's house was very different from his house, it was full of vegetation, plants here and there, some looked normal while others looked like a horror movie, a flower bit his shirt leaving a hole.

-perfect.

-I'm sorry about that, she tends to bite when she's hungry, my daughter was supposed to feed everyone today but she seems to have forgotten, again.

She apologized as she threw something similar to dog food, but surely it was something else.

-You have a daughter?

-Yes, a rebellious girl of 11, by this time she must be sleeping so I'll introduce her to you tomorrow.

-So, your married.

-I got divorced a few years ago.

-Sorry.

-You don't have to, she and I are fine, we just wanted different things, that is, sometimes we go out as a family.

When he referred to his female partner he remembered what his mother had told him, in that place there was no type of racial discrimination or preferences since they were all different, it sounded very utopian, in the world in which he lived he had to learn that of this.

-My mom would like to know all this, if she were here she would flood you with questions and they would have those endless mom talks.

-Surely, we will have a lot to say to each other. It has been a long time, and how is she now? she is fine? how is her life?

-Well, I would say that it's okay it's just me and her and I think she likes that since she has rejected many suitors since she separated from my father, she is a well-known novelist and she likes her work very much, she also behaves very cheerful and enthusiastic With the things that he does, he is on the parents committee and always suggests very strange and extravagant things for school events .. he will always pick me up listening to pop songs .. and if I am not in the mood he takes me to eat at my favorite pizzeria. .. I .. I got carried away by other people's comments and before I got here I behaved very rude .. I really want to apologize to her for the things I said.

When noticing the sadness in his words and that the desire to cry was reflected in his face, Willow put his hand on his shoulder in comfort.

-She will forgive you, the Luz you describe is the same as the Luz I remember, and she is incredibly kind, especially with the people she loves.

-Yeah..she is very nice..

After a while of conversation, Willow gave him something to eat and showed him the room where he was going to stay, he had no men's clothes in the house so he would have to sleep with what he had.

When she closed the door, as any mother would do, Willow went to verify that her daughter was sleeping, Haya Park had a certain reputation for running away to hang out with her friends despite her young age. She seemed to be there peacefully sleeping, but she was nothing more than a pillow and some piled-up clothes, although she wouldn't know later.

The girl was eating with her friends while walking through the night market that since the political change had become much safer, although not entirely, she was small and cute, but also had a very explosive personality.

with her was Dooley Porter, an older boy who is from another school, they are best friends like his parents and have known forever. They usually make these little huities when Dooley makes money fixing Palismanes, there are not many who choose construction and magic plants at the same time, these combined skills made him a great carpenter and he usually makes arrangements for those who adopt such a friend making them look almost like new, his work is quite popular with students from different schools.

Carlos had not been able to fall asleep because of a rather large plant that was staring at him with its four blue-green eyes and when a figure abruptly came in through the window with a stick he scared really bad.

Haya went with clover, her mother's talisman. She used to be her accomplice and protector when she went out, it was difficult to go directly to her room since it was next to her mother's and if it made noise she was going to discover her, so she usually leaves the visiting room window open, when someone entered was watching her From the bed with their eyes so wide they looked like saucers, their first reaction was to scream.

With so much fuss Willow came down quickly to see what was happening and what he found was Carlos stuck on the ceiling with abominal drool.

-Mom theres a thief!!

-Haya, put him down.

-But-

-Put it down

The girl only had to resign herself and snapping her fingers, Carlos fell on the bed, bouncing to the floor.

-Worst day of my life.

He was heard muttering with his face on the ground.

Willow explained the situation to his daughter and forced her to apologize for leaving so late and without permission, as well as forgetting to feed the plants.

-I thought I could wait until tomorrow but since we are here due to the situation I am going to introduce you, Haya, he is Carlos Noceda, he is the son of a friend and he will stay here until he returns home, so be good with him now onwards.

-Okey mom.

She said in a reluctant tone since they had not given the best first impression

-Well I hope you can get along very well because tomorrow you will spend the day together.

-What!?

They both responded in unison, and when they saw each other they look away from each other.

-I have to work tomorrow and until there is no way for him to return home I cannot leave him wandering around alone, I will feel more relaxed if he is with someone, I already notified the director about the situation by mail and he has no problems in what he attended classes with you.

-But mom! He's a human, he's going to get a lot of attention! Besides what he would do in a magic school, humans can't produce magic right !?

-You like to draw attention, besides, it was his mother who discovered an arcane magic based on runes and glyphs that does not necessarily need him to have the physical ability to do magic, did you not learn that in school? I'm sure it's a class.

Willow had a weary look on his face, sure to deal with this kind of haughty attitude all the time.

-I think that was enough for tonight, better both go to sleep it will be a long day.

-yes mama / Mrs. Park.

They spoke again at the same time and again annoyed each other making childish gestures behind Willow's back, this was going to be complicated.

Being alone in the room, he closed the window and looking at the sky that had different constellations from the ones at home, he said:

-Buenas noches mamá..
