I wiped the sweat of my palms as I entered Scott's house. I never had been so anxious to meet someone before. As we entered into the living room, three people sat on the sofa, chatting. As we entered the three of the looked up at us.

Scott greeted them and I studied their Aura's. They were all so composed, calm and welcoming. I somehow hadn't expected that.

"Everybody, this is Avyana. I have spoken to you about her a bit. She was taken over by Mom and now Alicia here, is her foster mother and also my friend." Scott said introducing us.

"Hi" "Hello" Alicia and I said simultaneously.

"Avyana and Alicia, this is Jules, Carrie and Stan." said Scott, introducing them three.

Jules, wore a black top and jeans. She wasn't very tall, but she had a radiant look. She looked at me and smiled.

Carrie was just beautiful all out. Perfect figure and a warm smile. Her emerald eyes penetrated my eyes as if viewing something.

Stan looked and me and smiled brightly. He looked very ordinary. I wonder what his power must be.

All three of them looked quite young. Maybe late twenties.

After the introduction we all sat down. Scott mostly proceeded the conversation with a bunch of 'Hows' and 'Whys'. I realised that this is the first time I am meeting a different person. Astonishing.

"So the main reason I invited you guys is actually for a proposal. These two beautiful ladies are very close to me. So I happened to tell them that you are different." Scott said. They all were so composed through all this.

"What is the proposal in this Scott?" Stan asked.

"You see, Avyana here, she is different." Scott said. As he said that, Jules and Stan immediately looked at me. Carrie just looked at me and smiled.

"You guys have been somehow going through the test every year and still haven't been caught. Please help Avy. Help her get through this somehow. Alicia and I love her." Scott said.

The three of them looked at each other.

"What is your power Avyana?" Jules asked.

"I can see Aura's of people. I can read their moods and their personalities. I see them in the form of colours around a persons body." I said. I saw them nod in appreciation .

"Scott. Avy is a wonderful person and you are our friend. But.." Carrie said.

"But what?" Scott asked. My heart had literally come up to my mouth.

"But can I get some beer first so we can enjoy Avyana's welcome in our group?" Carrie said and smiled.

All of us bursted into a laghter.I felt so happy, so relieved. Like how one would feel after defusing a bomb. We all later sat together and had dinner talking like a normal family. Family. That word is so familiar yet so new.

"So what are your powers?" I asked as I gulped my orange juice.

"Oh yes. I was wondering when you would ask that question." Carrie said keeping her fork down and wiping her lips with a napkin. "Well, when I look into peoples eyes I can see their past in flashes. The moment I saw you I knew you were different." Carrie said. Amazing.

"I can make you dream what I want you to dream. In short I can create dreams and make you dream that." Jules said. I saw Alicia nodding in amazement.

"I can hypnotize just by looking in a persons eye. But I believe my biggest gift is technological inventions!" Stan said.

"Oh yes! Stan makes the best electronic gadgets I have ever seen. He can make anything possible." Carrie said.
