"Hello mom" Lily says with a smile on her lips her mom pulls her into a big hug rocking them side to side " There's my little girl come on inside dear I'll make us some hot coco" her mom say before pulling Lily into her childhood home. It been a few days since the events that happened at her house she was finally able to take a week off work to recuperate and come see her mom. She had a lot of questions floating around in her brain and as much as she wished she could bluntly asks her mom questions she knew her mom wouldn't take it well so she was going to try and be as gently as possible when asking all the things on her mind. Walking inside the small house everything looked exactly the same as when she was growing up pictures of her and them together lined the wall along with friends and family members on her mom's side of her family. But a older man was missing from the photos and that left bitter taste in Lily's mouth she never know her father her mom fold her growing up that he was a bad man so she left with Lily before she was born to protect the both of them. Lily takes a seat on the couch glancing up in the TV it seems that her mom was watching Judge Judy before answering the door she mom walk into the kitchen fluffy black curls bounce as she goes. And she makes their hot chocolate she continues their conversation " So how have you been out there in the big city what do I owe this unexpected visit?" her mom asked as she started pouring the brown chocolate powder into each cup of hot milk. Lily plays with her thumbs and she glances over at her mom " Umm same old same old" she said quietly which was completely far from the truth " I got a new job at the planetarium like I always wanted and bought Momo a new blue light collar". Her mom walks back into the living room handing her a Christmas mug she made when she was 6 years old filled with hot chocolate and sits the spot beside her " Ah I see that's great dear how is Momo is he keeping a good eye on you out there?". She asks before taking a sip of her hot chocolate Lily watches her intensely did her mom really not know about Momo being able to grow like 9 ft tall? Was her mom also as oblivious about the magical world as she was or was she lying to her all these years her mom looks up from her cup noticing Lily staring at her raise her eyebrow " Um is everything ok dear". Lily lets out a breath it was now or never she had to find out the truth " Mom I need to ask you a few things because to be honest the last few months of my life have been anything but normal" Lily sits her cup on the glass table beside arm of the chair. Her mom looks at her intrigued what could have shook up her daughter this much " Mom did you know Momo could grow 9 feet tall? Did you know he was a magical creature when you gave him to me?" Lily asked hesitantly if her mom didn't know about the magic community she would probably be laughing at her right now thinking Lily was joking....but she wasn't laughing. Her cup of hot chocolate drops from her hand falling to the wood floor making Lily jump back in her seat her mom mutters a curse word before standing up speed walking into the kitchen to grab a towel and then walking back into the living room hastily trying to clean up the mess. Lily just sits watching her mom act hysterical " Mom answer the question? And what else have you been hiding from me all these years?" she asked in a cold voice she was pissed at her mom but she wasn't about to yell at her she just wanted the truth for once. Her mom stand back up walking into the kitchen throwing the wet towel in the sink Lily stands up following her into the kitchen her mom leaned her hands on the counter head hung looking into the sink " Yes I knew" she whispered Lily barely heard her soft voice but...she did. Lily was feeling so many emotions that she starts to pace back and forth the feeling of sadness, anger, rage, confusion, and frustration filled her whole chest " Mom what the hell? How could you lie to me my whole life like this?" her mom turns around putting her hand on Lily's shoulders looking at her with watery eyes " I'm so sorry Lily I only did it to protect you I never meant to hurt you please believe me". Lily pushes her mom's hands away throwing her hands up in the air in frustration " I knew one day he would come for you. But I couldn't protect and look after you your whole life so I got Momo for you from a magical salesman to look after you". Lily looks into her moms watery eyes tear roll down her cheek freely " Who mom...who are you trying to protect me from who is trying to get me?" her mom opens her mouth the quickly closes it shaking her head. She starts to walk away Lily grabs her arm making her stay but her mom still doesn't face her " Fucking who mom!?!" She yells her mom turns her head facing her daughter again " Your father Alistair.... Statan's right hand...King of the underworld".
