Early morning, the birds were singing, the sun is shining brightly. Zec is excited to have his first breakfast that his grandmother Sila prepared for him at the farm.
It is the first time Zec Antle a 9year old boy stayed overnight in his grandmother's house.
Located far away from the main city of Nego. The nearest neighbor is about 10miles from the east. The farm land consist of corn field and for farm animals, mostly sheep. The house was a 2 storey wood made old design house without any renovation made into it from the time it was built. Some dented walls can be seen outside of the wooden house.
Together with Clairence Antle his mother, they spent the night at the farm.
Clairence grew up in the house until she moved to Nego city together with her husband Korad Antle 3 years ago. Clairence doesn't want to live her life as a farmer as her mother told her. She loves her mother very much, it is the reason why she left the farm to earn more money in the city to provide for her.
Clairence maiden name was Clairence Topia.
But the Topia family is not an ordinary family in the city of Baltao, as well as the Antle family living at Baclod, also known as the feared city.
A lot of people in both cities knows the story why.
Some family doesn't fear the Topia and Antle family.
Like the Orthia family who lives next to the city Baltao, the Tambo City. It is the living with the "Sight" that fears the Orthia family, according to history.
Zec was awake. Its 6am in the morning with gentle breeze blowing from the opened window. The sun touches the fair skin of little Zec.
"Grandma I'm awake!" Zec shouted moving downstairs.
He goes directly to his grandmother as she told him yesterday that she'll make a breakfast for him.
"Cookies and milk!", Zec exclaimed with excitement.
"Go eat before your mother find this out", as Sila looking around for her daughter Clairence.
Clairence doesn't want him to eat too much sweet. It makes him energetic for a day then passes out the other day.
Zec has a special ability not everyone can see and possess, he still need to be taught on how to use it. Sila Topia, the wife of the late Zed Topia knows this.
Zec is the only grandson of Zed, the strongest Bajer in the city of Baltao. One reason why his mother is very strict to him, especially to his health. She doesn't want him to be weak physically.
Sila, living alone at the farm after his husband Zed died in the war, ask her daughter to bring her things to be used for her new project in the barn.
She is building another room for the newly born horse in the farm. That's why Clairence and Zec was in the farm house with Sila.
But the main reason why Sila want them to be in the farm is that,to have little Zec and tell him that he has the blood of Bajer. Sila knows that time is near and Zec needs to prepare. She needs to act right now.
"Can I see now the newborn horse?", Zec ask his grandmother Sila after finishing his breakfast.
"Wait until your mother comes down, then we'll go together inside the barn".
Clairence packing her clothes together with his son Zec things in the room upstairs. The room is full of plants, flowers and butterflies located beside Zecs room. They will go home at 12noon back in Baclod. Because the summer break will end next week. Zec will be on 3rd grade in Handu Academy.
"Mother we need to go back in Baclod, school is starting next week and Zec needs to prepare his things", Clairence said as she walks downstairs.
"Have your breakfast first, dear", as she smile and put the mushroom soup with bread in the table.
"We'll go to the barn and show him the new born horse, then after that you can leave", Sila told Clairence.
"Okay, but before noon he needs to be here so his father can pick us up right away.", Sila told her mother as she proceed towards the table.
"I am excited to see the new horse grandma!", Zec told Sila with excitement and enthusiasm.
"Now Zec, please listen to me, don't touch anything in the barn, okay?", Sila said.
"Yes grandma! I will not touch the horse!", Sila smiled and then proceeded inside the big barn. The barn was so big, three storey barn full of domesticated animals and birds.
"Truly you like animals grandma!", He told Sila.
But the truth is, they are not only animals inside the barn as he simply see it, they are far important than that.
"There it is! Zec look!", As she points her finger towards the new born horse trying to stand on its own.
"Wow!", as Zec extend it's hands toward the horse with full of excitement trying to touch it. Sila in an instant before Zec touch the horse, snap away his hand causing Zec to fall towards the ground.
Realizing on how strong she snap the hand of little Zec, Sila then run towards him and helped him up. "What did i tell you?!", Sila exclaimed. "You should not touch things inside the barn, Zec!".
"Im sorry grandma, it's just... it's just..", Zec tried to stop the tears from falling in his green eyes.
"It's okay now, what's important is you did not touch it and nothing happened to you", Sila told Zec while helping him up.
"There are things that you can't understand Zec, not now but someday you will".
