It's morning again and Aliena wasn't ready to get up from the bed due to the fact that she stayed up late. But the noise coming from Damien as he pulled away her bed cover made her open her eyes grudgingly.

"Rise and Shine sleepy head". Damien said pulling the bed cover away from her.

Aliena turned to face him as she looked at him. "What are you doing here?". She asked him in Greek.

Damien stood dumbfounded as he paused taking a good look at her. I thought the universe answered my prayer then what is this?. He asked himself as he took a seat on the bed.

Aliena laughed as she looked at how his countenance fell. "Disappointed that much?". She asked in English as Damien turned to look at her with his face brightening up with a smile. "You should have seen your face just now". Aliena said as she showed him how he looked when his countenance fell causing Damien to laugh.

"How dare you play such games with me uh?". He asked as he grabbed her pillow hitting it on her shoulders.

"you know I can make you freeze right?".

Hearing that, Damien dropped the pillow as he moved to the door. "We'll be downstairs". Without another glance, he left her room.

Aliena laughed as she went into the bathroom. She already knew how to use the shower so she didn't need any assistance.

Damien went downstairs to meet his mom who was speaking to the gas repairer. "Is he almost done yet?". He asked as his mother shook her head.

"what about Aliena?". His mom asked not taking her eyes off the repairer.

"you know I can freeze you right?lala". The thought came as Damien grabbed a bottle of water gulping it as his mother looked at him.

"Are you alright?". She asked. Damien nodded but of course his mom didn't believe him, she knew her son too well to know when he is lying.

"Damien, I need your help". Aliena called loud enough for everyone in the whole neighbourhood to hear.

"Aliena use your indoor voice please". Lucy said.

"Sorry". Aliena said softly but everyone in the sitting room could hear her. "Damien". She called but Damien refused to answer her.

Aliena made sure she wasn't visible so she could get a closer look at Damien and maybe perhaps do something to him. When she saw he was drinking water and totally pretending not to hear her, with a snap of her finger, the bottle water dropped on the ground as the water spilled on Damien and the repairer.

Damien looked at her and when their eyes met she froze him making him look at one direction.

Lucy couldn't stop laughing. The repairer turned to look at Damien and when he saw he wasn't moving, he went closer to him. "Your son is quite skillful... A talent like this can earn him a fortune". The man said as he touch Damien's body.

"Tell me about it". Lucy said. She knew if Damien could move, he would be giving her a weird look right now.

"Mind if I take a video of this? My daughter would love this". The man asked.

"I'm sure he wouldn't mind". Aliena said as she came downstairs fully dressed in a blue gown.

Although Lucy was surprised to hear Aliena speak in english she decided not to show it in order not to create suspicion.

"thank you". The man said as he brought out his phone and started the video recording.

"I would like the video too". Lucy said as she gave Aliena a wink.
