"Zella?!" I shout at her. No, this can't be... no, no, no, no! Zella can't be my- my sister! Zella's mom looks at me with surprise.
"Oh, so you two know each other already? That is great!" she says cheerfully. My father holds her close. Ugh. I can't stop looking into Zella's eyes. It is like looking at glass shattering.
"Well, Zenix, we will be staying at Zella's mother's home because it is a little bigger," my father mentions. He turns toward Zella. "And you, will always call me sir. Understood?!" Zella swallows some spit.
"Yes, sir."
We start walking toward Zella's house, not saying a word. I thought I heard her mumbling under her breath a few times, but she says nothing to me. Although, I am almost positive that she is not mad at me. She is furious at our new parents, and I am so angered about this whole thing, that I want to beat up my father until he is unconscious! Zella's mom too, but mainly my father. He's going to get it someday, and he will never see it coming.
Zella brings me to her room and she sighs as she puts away all of her brewing materials in her storage chest. She pulls out a sleeping bag for me and I lay in it. She sits on her bed. We sit in silence. I want to... I want to kill my father! He ruined the one amazing thing in my life, which was love! And now I can't love her because she is my sister! Zella's eyes changed from annoyed to hurt.
"Zenix, you are not going to do anything bad are you?" She asks me. It's like she read my mind from staring into my eyes.
"I don't know, I mean, I really want to kill my father right now..." I mumble. Zella looks scared.
"I love you Zenix, and I don't want you to hurt anyone over this," Zella pulls out a potion from her chest and shows it to me.
"What is that? A potion of positivity?" I ask jokingly. Zella smiles a little.
"No, it is just a potion of healing. But you are hurt, so it will heal you, but it will also make you fall asleep," Zella explains, "It might get rid of your bad thoughts."
"No promises that I will not have the same thoughts tomorrow, though," I retort. Zella walks over to my bed and holds the potion above me. "Goodnight, Zella," I say as I close my eyes.
"Sweet dreams, Zenix," she replies and throws the potion down, but I don't feel it. Zella screams and I open my eyes. She is on the floor with potion all over the floor. And there is my father.
"What did you do?!" I yell at him. He glares at me.
"She was going to use a potion on you," is all he says. I clench my fists and grind my teeth.
"She was going to keep me from..." I am speechless as my father slams the door. I go over to Zella and she is asleep. But she wasn't hurt, so how could it have worked? I look at her head and legs and arms for wounds. But I see the paper wrapped around her arm and I rip it off. Her heart on her arm is becoming... a scar. I look at mine and see that mine is becoming a scar too. I must have still gotten some potion. I carry Zella over to her bed and put the covers on her. "Sweet dreams, Zella," I whisper, then I kiss her head and get into my sleeping bag. I fall asleep thinking about how much I want to kill my father...
