Within no time, dad was here. He was startled to see mum's condition. He looked at me once, totally confused and took deep breaths while carrying mum out of the room (he couldn't take an eye off me).
I paced back into my sweats, once mom was gone. Back onto the ground. I couldn't stop myself from crying then,my lips were hurting and my throat burning badly. But my eyes were the worst ,they were hurting so bad that I felt like I was given anesthesia without keeping my eyes closed,like my cornea melting and tear ducts evaporated. I laid still on the ground as though I have been electrocuted.
I slowly and carefully without moving an inch of my lips slipped out of the room. My foot were aching too but it was bearable. At the hallway,dad helped me reach my room. I wanted to ask him about mum but I was wondering what I'd do to him. So I shut my pie-hole. I was just thinking about what I did in the room, when I was back on my bed. I had questions about the harm if I ignored my identity. And Nick,too?!
Nick was my little brother who is currently in London, preparing for his MBA who has large dreams about his future. He'd already joined a boy band. I knew I couldn't risk his future,his career and what if he never returned....I couldn't take that. I loved him.
I was just recollecting everything what momma said when I saw a thick bordered Bond paper ,sort of thing flipping out on my desk.
Though,my body ached like it was being burned in hell. I somehow reached out to the desk which read-
"Hoic Ostiarius,

We invite you to the Ostiarius
mansion. To provide
knowledge and control
over your powers and
difference.
Questions that you seek will
be answered.
The nuntium if not answered
Will be considered a
Disapproval.
Which is not entertained by
the keeper and will result in
forceful assignation to the
Oraclian's sibling and
offspring.

To approve,
Spill your sanguium. "
I was real angry so what I assumed was right if I'd not go. Nick will have to go which was not happening until I was alive. But I needed to know the meaning of sanguium ,I needed mum.
I managed to reach their room but was hestaint at their door. I feared that I would hurt her again. But I couldn't kill my brother, so I carefully walked into their room controlling my emotions. Mum laid lifelessly on the bed ,my heart scattered around the corners of my body to find her that way.
"Where is sanguium?"I asked numbly so that I could finish this and run away from them as far as possible so that I could never hurt them anymore.
"In your veins"with her voice turned zombie. I couldn't stop but examine her body to find out what I have done with her. I was petrified to see big black marks on her neck and her arms. I almost killed her. Dad covered her with a blanket when he followed my gaze. Then ,it was just her eyes that I was looking at. They were tired, torn and pained still somehow at peace.
Breaking the bond between our eyes dad scold,"Carol,baby. Are you crazy?
"And you Eliz? You are ready to send our baby daughter into a hellhole, really?"
"Then, would you send him instead?"she asked distorted and then answered her own question"No,you won't,will you? Because he was more irresponsible and irrelevant then she is"
"But she,her des.."he continued
"No, Mark."she snapped" You can't stop it,it has begin. She is on her own now."
"It's okay,dad. I would be fine. You do know that I myself am a hellhole, right. They wouldn't be able to bear me and will be pleased to send me back. You know and I would be back within no time" I consoled him.
Dad was left with no choice but to agree with me. I think Mom was with me too or she wouldn't direct dad to bring out the beautiful Dagger. It was mesmerizing,made of platinum handed covered with all sorts of precious gems. She handed it to me on the couch but I still couldn't get off the beauty before me.
"Are you sure?Baby. Once you are in ,you are stuck with it forever. No crying after that "his voice choked at the end.
"I am " I reassured him. I was not ready to give Nick's life for the seek of mine and I quickly slide the beautiful dagger onto my palm, for the blood- from my veins - fall onto the letter.
" And she is in." Dada said sadly
"hmm....huh" mum nodded in agreement.
" I better get going" I said "I have to pack" hestaintly and excused myself out of there so that I could destroy all of my room. I was so much in rage, I have disabled mum already and now I was breaking Dada from the inside. I had to leave my family for the brother's future which I might threaten if I'd return. So, over all conclusion of all this is to be away from my people forever... Tears dwelled from my face as soon as I got to the conclusion. I was breaking the decor of my room before I tripped and fell on the ground, the pain in my body increased whilst my heart was tasered and slowly I drowsed into sleep.
I woke up in my mom's lap "Carol, honey you all right."she said in her breaken voice which reminded me of who she got that voice.
" I love you, mom " I confessed because this woman, after going through so much pain, was only back to the same person who was responsible for her condition. She was a God.
" Love you, too" she replied "and since you are leaving tomorrow. I thought maybe they deserve a proper goodbye. I mean you don't want to be remembered as the girl who ran away from her own party"
"Mom, you should taken some res.." I started when she snapped me and forced into agreeing with her. She was right. I didn't want to be that girl.
So, I put on my dressand was in my shoes whilst did my hair and make up. She was better and faster than my stylist, guess that was why she gets to all of her conferences on time. The party was really great and I really was able to enjoy for a few hours. I could still see Maggie's dance with Alan,they were mesmerizing.

And that was how I wound up here, in this flight with no clue where I was off to or what should I do after I reach my destination!.
"Mam , do you need something" the hostesses confirmed.
"Nothing" I said rudely, she was disturbing me and as soon as I said that the women was on the ground with one hand on her neck and the other for help. I realized it was all my fault and quickly handed her some water, this time I was able to reach out to her. She thought it was something was wrong with her but she couldn't take her eyes of me, she knew that it was me but she wouldn't confess. That's it, I was done I wouldn't hurt anyone my life again again. I should stop, I will stop because if I wouldn't that would mean destruction every where, not her, not Mum but everyone everyone in this world,which I wouldn't entertain, I can't bare it . I should stop, stop projecting my emotions. I will shut them done....
Mom handed me a box and I thought maybe that I should open it now that I am alone. I quickly took the box from my pocket of the trench coat I was wearing and open it inside I found a beautiful ring ofvPlatinum with the Crimson crystal. That was odd because I'd expected violet or a burgundy crystal but this was beautiful too. I liked it, with the ring are also got a letter which read-
"Carol, that ring is for you
I want you to put it on as soon
as you get it. Take a taxi and
ignore your car. Ask the driver
to drive you to the south west
end of Mount Hight. U will find
Mystic trails there. Follow it.
Never turn back.
- Love, mum"
Okay, I knew that the ring was for me. It was a good bye gift. Taxi, I understand because all the Anderson trips were like this to avoid a public stunt. But the last three lines were related to my secret....
