My Only 'One'

Chapter 42-Family

"He is really crazy."

"Yeah, he did go crazy. Many attempts were made to get you but we protected you but recently his antics and powers grew strong so we had no choice but to leave you in human world unknown to anyone so that you can be safe."

"I think you are mistaken Demon King. I am not your daughter."

"No, I am not."

"So let us think your right and I am a demon. You are saying I am a demon and you left in human world for my safety. A demon ages very, very slowly compared to a human. I mean a hundred or fifty human years is one year for you. Don't you think they get freaked out by me? That is a big mistake on your part and as for me not being your daughter my adopted family there have pictures of me from my childhood, I grew up as per human age which means I am not a demon."

"No, you are demon and my daughter." Why doesn't he understand? My argument is 100% logical. "You are the first demon-fairy child in the world's history. I don't know if there would be another one after you. Your growth was very strange. You were born a few years after the war. In fact you are precisely 97 years 6 months 10 days and 3 hours younger than Blake." I looked back at Blake in amazement. They are saying I am not younger than him by 1400 years but just around 100 years. If that is true I would have been long dead by now. "Your growth was quite worrisome to us and since you were the first one we didn't know whom to contact or say what is normal for you. But your growth was very very slow when compared to anyone of this supernatural world. In 1300 years you grew to be a four year old kid."

"Eh?"

"I mean to say, you were with us till 14 years back as a 4 year old kid."

"You are kidding right?"

"No, we are not. Your growth was very slow but then suddenly we detected human characteristics in you."

"Wait a second! How did you even know that?"

"You aged an year as per human year and we had a witch with us to notice your growth. She said that could be because of the fairy blood in you. Fairies are closely related to humans."

"That is weird."

"Yeah." Charless, I guess my father laughed.

"I am even more weird." I muttered.

"No, you are special." Blake said suddenly making me blush.

"Yes he is right. You are very special one. You are born as a symbol of unity."

"Symbol of unity?"

"Yes. You were born during the war when we were fighting with each other for power and egoistic reasons. Do you know what actually started this war? Having mates of other kind. Each one of our species thought they were different and special and should not be mated with the other kind. At that time you were born as a result of the love between two unlikely creatures, a demon and a fairy. Opposite ones. You are symbol to say that we are all equal. You are the symbol of love." He smiled and explained making me feel like I am really the symbol of love, you know like some goddess born for world peace. I am sorry Mr.Demon king but I am not that great.

"Uh..Is that so? So I was left in the human world at 5 years."

"Yes, you were. We always kept an eye on you."

"What would have happened if my adoptive family didn't adopt me? I could have faced much serious circumstances."

"That will not happen." Rosalinda, my said mom interrupted. "None could resist you. You really are the picture of love. Everyone will love you. You are such a cute and adorable child."
