We got to the car and it started. All their questions came out at once like a dam breaking, letting the river of questions flow.
"How did you do that?"
" That's not possible is it?"
" When did you learn how to do that?"Their voices carried serious but excited tones.
"I don't know how it's possible. I just focus my mind and energy to do it. I learned I could do it a couple of weeks ago" I answered
"How did you learn that you could do that?"said Macy. Then I explained the whole story. "A couple of weeks ago I had just taken my phone out of its case and was going down the stairs and it slipped out of my hand, and I had just got it the week before, so I grabbed for it as fast as possible, and-and it just stopped. An inch off the ground like it was in a movie and you pause it. Afterward I just could not figure it out and this was the only solution I could think of. And believe me I know how crazy it is but after a week I had to know. So then I put a Cheerio on my counter and moved it from stain to stain with out touching it. I got the idea from movies how the characters figure out they have a power, gift, ability, whatever you want to call it, by starting to use it on or with something small. It worked call me crazy but it worked."
"So you can just pick things up and down and move them with your mind." Said Casey. "Pretty much" I replied "Awesome!" Said Casey. "That is pretty cool." Said Isabella.
I'm relieved that they know, and I don't need to keep the secret from them any more. I know I can trust them but at the corner of my mind I can't help but worry that they will tell somebody. I know that it's not exactly great that they know this. I know you shouldn't share secrets because even when you make them swear not to tell anyone, they do, but they tell that person not to tell anyone, and they do to. That chain just goes on and on until everyone knows and even when you think no one knows, in reality everyone knows.
" Listen you guys I'm really happy that your taking it so well, but you can't tell annnyone. I'm dead serious, I don't care if your madly in love and you can trust this person with your life, or their a deeply trusted loved one, or their your best friend in the whole wide world, not a sole. This is not your secret to tell, and especially not theirs to know, let alone tell, which they will." They all agree with me, which gives me even more relief. "So can we see you do something else?" Says Macy. "Sure, What?"I reply. "Um, turn the car on with the keys in the ignition." It took me a minute but I see what she means. So after a minute of concentration I pick up the keys, chose the car key, and put it in the ignition. After a second of hesitation I manage to turn the keys in the ignition, and the car comes to life.
All three of them look dumbfounded. "Wow." Says Casey. "I can only do small stuff right now ." I say. "Still, wow!" Replies Casey. Now I feel reassured that they won't tell anyone.
