Amy, Martin & The Elements Of Winter

16. Deep In Your Heart

In the break I wanted to talk to Martin and find out more about him. It was really cold, he was sitting outside though. I came over to him. He took out his pencil and paper. I took out mine too.

Hello, Martin! I know I was annoying with the questions but I really want to find a way to break the curse.

It's okay. I want to find a way to break it too.

I want to be free.

Me too!

I looked deep into his eyes. He had a hard past. They looked cold. They were as cold as mine. As cold as ice. I wanted to save him. He also had a warm part in his heart left. Just like I had. We had so much together.

I will talk to my mother, you talk to yours. Let's see what details we can get.

He nodded. I went to a lonely place behind the school building so noone would think I'm insane! "Hey mom!" I thought. My mother appeared in the clouds. We communicated per Telepathy.

Hello mom, I want to ask something.

Yes?

Do you think there is a way to break the curse? I want to try.

Well, what do you think? Look deep in your heart for the answer.

Hmmmm... I think yes!

Alright! Now just believe in yourself and you will be able to do anything.

She disappeared in thin air again. Mom was right. The right answer was deep in my soul. And since everything was possible as long as you didn't lose faith, I believed in it.

"And?" I wrote on my paper.

Believe in yourself!

He was so damn right. Our mothers were right. They really wanted to help us. He took out a blue glowing book.

What is this?

A book. A magical one.

What is it for?

Can you come over to the park in the afternoon, we'll see together!

Okay!

Then we went into our class again. The bell rang just in time. I was so excited. I couldn't wait to know what was written in that book. I was so curious.

I would stay with you, Martin! Stay with you to free you....me....us!
