A Touch Of Magic (Unedited)

Chapter 5

   
"C'mon Magic! Get that spell right and you can get past the trolls in the valley"mum cried. The training was getting tougher than before and it was really had to keep up with. Mum had me doing spells that weren't up to my level am a level 3 witch and she has me doing level  10 spells.
"Wand straight!, now say the spell!"
OK here goes nothing.
Wand straight,and.
Once I said the spell the fake trolls disappeared. Yay! It worked.
"That's my girl!" Mum said giving me a hug.
"Thanks mum"I say hugging her back. Am so happy that it worked.
"OK let's wrap it up and you get to school"Mum suggested. As I was  going up the stairs, my phone rang it was Cam.
***********************************
  " Have you gone to the school page?" Cam asked as we made our way to my locker. I wore a black jumper that said; You ain't no boss, bitch move!,and black high waist jeans and black sneakers.
"No I haven't why?" I asked as I was opening my locker. Just then, Chloe walked in looking all ugly and helpless. Her hair was in a messy bun,no makeup and she wore just jeans and tee shirt. I could not hold my laughter .
"Why is she dressed like that?" I asked Cam in between my laughter.
"Asher broke up with her,that's why I asked you if you had gone to the school page". After  she said that, I continued  my laughter.  You should have seen her, she looked like a monster!. As I laughing, she walked to me and then as she opened her mouth to talk, she saw the writing on my jumper and burst into tears and left.  So funny.
"Did you really have to wear that?" Cam asked.
"What? I had no idea this would happen,besides am glad I did" I smirked.

  During lunch Asher asked me to sit with him and of course I said yes not without Cam's approval though.
"Why did do it?"I asked Asher as we our way to his table.
"Did what?"
"Break up with her" I replied
"Because its my life not theirs and I should do what makes me happy" he smiled and I smiled too.
"So guys, this is Magic my friend" Asher told his friends on the table.
They all smiled and introduced themselves.
"Am Anthony" a blonde boy with dark brown eyes said.
"Jason" another said. He had brown eyes and full eyes brows that I would kill for.
"Hello"I smiled  and took my seat between Asher and Anthony.
"Thank you" Anthony mouthed to me as I sat down.
"For what?" I asked looking confused
"For getting rid off Chloe"
"My pleasure"I smiled.
************************************
My mouth made an "O" shape as Asher drove through the gate of what he calls his house. Its was so big and beautiful. The inside was just the best. The only colors were black and white. The floors had a chess board pattern. It was so nice. Asher asked me to be his friend and I said yes obviously. He took to his house for a reason unknown to me.
"Asher child? Is that you?" a lady's voice  echoed.
"Yes mama its me" Asher smiled. Mama? Is that his mom?. A lady in her say umm forties walked down the stairs with her hair in a bun. She  looked beautiful despite the stress on her face.
"And who is this angel?"she asked as she made her way towards us.
"Mama this is Magic, a friend of mine" He replied. She smiled and pulled me in for a hug.
"Welcome child"she muttered. She smelt great!.
"Thank you" I smiled.
"So, mama did you hear from mum and dad about coming home for my birthday?" Asher asked with hope in his eyes.
"Yes child but they won't be able to make it,am sorry" the lady who I learnt her name was Rosa,said with pity.
Asher looked disappointed but tried to hide it.
"No problem,it's not going to be the first time anyways"he said trying to fake a laugh but failed. Poor thing.  Most be horrible not to have your parents there on your birthday.
"Asher? Are you OK?" I asked feeling sad for him.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" He replied.
"OK, so why am I here?" I asked. No because really I have no idea why am here, he just said hop in and I did.
"Nothing,just wanted to hang out" he smiled.
"Okay? But why didn't you ask?"
"Nothing!now tell me about Magic. How did your parents choose such a rare name anyway?" He asked looking very interested. How did my parents choose that name? Huh! I guess I never wondered.
"I don't know about that,so ask me something else"I replied
"Tell me everything about yourself"he smiled. Seriously! Does he ever stop smiling?! Its killing me but in a good way.
" I love my mom and dad so much but his late" I said.
His smile turned up side down.
"Am so sorry to hear that" he said. That was just so nice. I thought he was heartless well I guess am wrong.
"its fine  thank you"I smiled.
"So tell me, how does it feel like to you know. Have parents who ummm love you?" He asked with a hint of sadness in his voice.
"C'mon Asher, am sure your parents have a good reason for not being able to make it" I said hoping to reassure him.
"Don't make excuses for them! They do this every year. For the past 3 years I haven't seen them and they say they love me? No they don't!" He said through his clenched jaw. Wow! I understand him. It  must be hurtful.
"Am sorry to hear that Asher"I said in a low tone. He just smiled and shrugged his shoulder.
"I have an amazing idea" I  smiled hoping to lighten the mood.
"What?"
"I'll make you a cup of my famous coco to cheer you up!"I said as I made my way to the kitchen. I made two cups of coco, one for me and the other for Asher.
After the hot coco,we talked about other things and he fell asleep on my shoulders. I just laid back and began to think of ways to make his parents come home for his birthday. That would make him really happy. As I was still thinking, I drifted off to sleep.
