A leap of Faith

Chapter 4: Faith, trust and Pixie dust

Eiva's Pov

" Mom said she is bringing over some pizza, for us to celebrate " Says Wy as he hangs up the phone

" Good because I'm starving " Skye says throwing herself at the coach

" Hahaha well, we could watch a movie just to get our minds of food while we wait for mom, how's that? " I ask heading to the counter, searching for a movie that we would all watch

" ahmm here's something how about The notebook? " I say holding up the cover

" Naaaah, too romantic and boring.. " says Skye rolling her eyes

" how about an old time favourite .. Peterpan and the lost boys?" I say smiling while holding the cover. Reminding myself of the times when Wyatt and I used to stay up late nights just so we could watch the stars, hoping that Peterpan and thinkerbell would magically appear and sprinkles us with pixie dust and together we would fly away to neverland.

" Great! Then, what are you waiting for? Play the damn movie" they shout

" Okay, okay calm your horses." I say playing the movie.

Anaya's ( Mrs. Graham) POV #Eiva's mom

I struggle with the door for a good 2 minutes since I had 4 pizza boxes on my hand and my purse on the other. Until I finally manage to open it. I get in closing the door behind me with my foot. I place the pizza boxes on the kitchen table. I remove my heels. And leave my purse on the chair. It was oddly quiet for my home. Specially since Wy got the job, honestly I was expecting fireworks, loud music and a crowd of people. But all my doubts are cleared as soon as I enter the living, for I found my little angels asleep on the coach. Poor them, must be exhausted. I ran upstairs and grab 3 blankets. I cover them with it, and off the TV that must have been on for hours now. However it was blank, I assume the movie they were watching had finished. I gently kiss them on theirs foreheads.

I head to my room, take a relaxing bubbled bath, brush my teeth and head to bed. I do my usual prayer. And stayed awake for what I think were 2 hours rolling over and over. Just thinking about what Audrey said. But finally I fell asleep.

Wyatt's POV

I'm on unfamiliar grounds. I see this dark shadow which seemed to be getting closer by the blink of an eye. I'm not sure if I should ran towards or away from it. I decide to stay put. As the shadow gets closer, it starts looking more and more like a person. It finally reached me, it was a few inches from me and it also had its head down. She spoke, and her voice was magical. I watched as she lifted her head, only to realize she wore a match. A white mask, white as snow, but the lips of the mask were coloured red, blood red. Her black wavy hair blew towards the wind. And her angelic voice echoed throughout.

" I am your mother" she says

" mom? Is this really you? " I ask, allowing myself to cry

" yes, dear it's me, i'm back and will never leave you again "

" how do I know you're not bluffing? " I ask turning away

" because a mother's love is stronger than anything in this world" she says placing her hand on my shoulder

She hugs me tight, I felt safe, and wished this would last forever. But all of a sudden the ground starts shaking, causing us to drift apart. The floors start cracking and sinking. I'm startled so I take a few steps backwards, not watching where I was going I slip and fall. Hanging to dear life on the very edge of a piece of the floor that was falling apart. I cried for my mother, but I had no response. I start losing my grip, but luckily I see her coming my way. I feel safer only knowing that she is here. But then she stops.

" mom? " I ask concerned and yet frightened since my life depended on her

She removed her mask and gave me this sadistic smile. She turned around and began walking, she didn't even hesitate. I watch as her perfectly formed body, turns into just a blur and then disappears. Confound with what my eyes had just witnessed I began to call for her

" MOTHER "

" MOTHER "

"MOTHER "

I say and getting louder with each word I say.

" MOTHER "

" MOTHER "

"Mother" I say, now forceless for all my strength was now gone. Why am I not surprised? She left, this wouldn't be her first time leaving me.

My fingers start to become numb, my arm starts shaking. I finally let go. I can feel gravity pulling my down, I see my whole life passing by. And just when I thought I was done. I feel little glitter like specks on my face and all over my body. It was raining gold dust.. pixie dust..... could it be? A smile escapes from my face.

Peterpan and Thinkerbell magically appear.

" everything will be alright, all you need is faith, trust and pixie" he says helping get balanced

And before I knew it I was flying...

" i'm flying, i'm flying "

" Look, the second star to the right " Says Peter pointing at a very bright star " it shines in the night for you, to tell you that the dreams you plan really can come true.. You know what's on the other end of that star? " Peter asked

" NEVERLANDb" I shout filled with excitement just like a little kid

Together Peterpan, thinkerbell and I flew to neverland....

I suddenly awake, I rub my eyes in confusion.

" that was something " I say to myself referring to my dream

I usually have dreams about my mother, but this one was different... not only because Peterpan was there. But.. something about her in my dream just didn't seem right.. it didn't make sense.. It's like the more I try to forget her and the past the more they come and haunt me. It drives me insane, I have so many questions but no one to answer them. I feel so much but I can't show it, because I can't explain what it is i'm feeling.

I sit up straight, placing both my hands on my face.

I sigh

"Is this it? Is this the beginning of my insanity? Is this how it starts?".....
