"You're the most beautiful thing happened to me, Bea"
3 September, 1997
St. Marks Hospital,JAMES JAMES!
i-i can't d-do this a-anymore, i-it hurts f-forgive me!
Madam, try to push harder. The fetus is just a few pushes away.
Lily, t-try harder, d-don't worry, i-im here with y-you, we c-can do this, alright?
D-darling, please, f-for our b-baby.Ahhhh
With a final push, the baby covered in motherly love, oozed out, landing in the doctor's hand.
It was a baby girl with ethereal features, her blonde locks covered in a red substance.The lady on the bed, trying to catch her breath, looked over to the strange expressions of the operators.
The operator found the baby weirdg for it had long hair which was impossible for a new born fetus, to the doctor's surprise, the new born was smiling instead of crying, never had he encountered such an event in his 50 years of experience.
The nurse took the baby from the doctor's hand and brought it closer to the parents.
Madam, congratulations! It's a girl!
Upon hearing the nurse's words, the parents let out their breath they didn't know they had been holding in, with warm tears filled eyes, the mother reached out her hand towards her baby, taking it from the nurse and gently grasping its fragile body in her sweaty arms.
Totally ignoring the orphic appearance of her offspring.The father hugged the women tight for giving him such a wonderful gift, After facing tremendous difficulties, they finally have someone to live for!
but their happiness came crashing down when Lily saw a mark on her baby's upper calves of its left leg.The mark had a black spot in the center, with flames scattering over her thighs, starting with a brown shade but eventually turning black as it moved up towards her thighs.
Lily's heartbeat increased rapidly when she recognized that the mark from the one she saw in the book, which stated James ancestral curse for his father, explained it to her!
She had heard about the curse when she used to go to the house of a believer.Lily's smile threatened to disappear when she nudged the delighted James.
James was confused as to why she'd do that, but then followed her vision and froze at his position.
A shiver ran through his spine, he knew it, he knows the mark!Their smiles dropped to the face of dismay,
James reached out his hand to caress Lily's cheeks while Lily was about to burst into tears.Nooo! Never! J-James, this can't happen to us!
M-my baby! I'll never let you go to his hands, noo! J-James, whatever your father said wasn't true, right? It was just a joke!, i know it, h-he was just fooling around, right?
HE CAN'T TAKE HER! ILL NEVER LET HIM TAKE MY DAUGHTER !Lily started panicking!
Surprisingly, James reminded calm, but his expressions said it all, yes, he heard the tales of his ancestors, but how can a fairytale be true?.but it'd be a lie to say that he wasn't worried, he was scared , frightened, petrified, he can't let his dear daughter be taken away!but he stayed on with that all the fairytale were just told for the little children to go to sleep, but then why did his father and grandma tell it to him when he got married! What will he do if HE comes to take his daughter? What will he do?
Many terrifying questions and scenarios lingered in his brain whilst Lily was crying her heart out.
The doctor and the nurse looked at them as if they're some psycopaths who recently got out of prison. Then, they concluded that they're weeping in happiness and decided to spare them some privacy.
Lily ! Get hold of yourself! Look at you, so miserable, don't you worry its nothing more than a made-up story, a-and if anything happens, I promise to protect our daughter till my last breath!
TRUST ME LILY, just trust me on this! I'll never let anyone make us apart from our daughter, I will p-protect my family until I depart from this world of misery!
I TRUST YOU, JAMES, I TRUST YOU WITH MY LIFE! b-but it's not about us, it's about our daughter!
D-Dont worry, w-we'll find a way o-out.
But hey, cheer up!it can maybe just be a fairytale, and we're getting worked out for nothing!It's the time to celebrate, not to weep Lils, we're in this together!
I hope your words are true, James!
Clasping her hands in his, James leaned in to kiss his wife and, after pulling out, leaned down to peck his daughter's forehead,
Lastly, she smiled sadly at his lively family.My Lord, I sense something absurd. Articles are not right!
The Foyer of the castle caught fire later yesterday, I shall conclude that the atmosphere has turned lively, the breeze is flowing over the hill, the sweet sent of the bluebells are lingering in thy kingdom and moon shall depart her chariot of pearl. Yet, I shall not understand what the changes depict!I can sense her presence
