"Dad! I missed you so much, Dad." I warmed at the sight of Pugsley, walking over to pat the boy on the head despite our similar heights, "I missed you so much."
"Querida." I tuned out, catching sight of Enid at the school entrance waving at me, I swallowed, turning away and missing how she deflated, "Don't push it. Well, at least we can't say Parents' Weekend wasn't a nail-biter. I knew you didn't have what it takes to be a murderer." I eyed the pig tailed girl before looking between each of them, "as much as that stings, gracias, my little death trap."
"As I leafed through the pages of this yearbook, I was reminded of all the wonderful times I had here. But they were just that. Mine. You have your own path to blaze, both of you. I don't want to be a stranger in your lives, darlings. If you need me for anything, anything at all, I'm only a crystal ball away."
"Thank you, Mother." Wednesday stepped back and the older woman turned to me fully, "forgive me, for everything. I'm your mother and I made a mistake but I see you my darling, I see you..."
"No more amulets?" She smiled tearily, "not even a trick to place one upon you."
Nodding, I sighed and let her wrap around me, Pugsley and our father following, "now girls, be mischievous alright?" I smiled next to Wednesday and we watched them leave waiting for Pugsley to stop waving through the back window, "I assume you've contacted cousin Itt in place of Mother and Father?"
She turned to see a dark feral grin, "of course, I also invited the twins and their largest pink dresses over for tea as soon as they have returned home."
"Mmm. Dreadfully evil."
"Always..."
"Excuse me then, I have to talk with our principal." I gave her a nod, not bothering to watch her leave, instead touching the paper of names in my pocket with a thought bubbling up in my mind.
