Stephen's POV
It's been a year. When my nightmares had stopped on hunting me. That was when Rufino came. He stopped my nightmares.
Rufino was my father's friend and that he lives the house next door. He was a doctor in the city but he lives here for a while. In this world, you would'nt believe, he has a secret that only he and I shared. He was a mage and so was I. He's power is to cure any type of illness and he could wash the curse away when a person was cursed. Not just that. He can also fight. He knows many magical ways of fighting. And that he passes that to me. Oh by the way, did'nt I tell I was a mage. Actually, I was his apprentice.
It all started when he first came at our house.
FLASHBACK
"Dad who's that?
I notice a man in a business suit, standing 6"2 tall, with a black hair in his mid 30s, sitting in the couch at the living room, talking with my beloved father.
"Oh, Stephen, I'm glad youre here,"
My dad and the man stood up. he continued placing his hand on my back."Meet my friend Rufino, one of the renowned doctors in town. Rufino, this is my son. Stephen"
The man grinned at me and I grinned him back.
"He's face are yours," he commented. "but his eyes are of Chelia's"
My dad chuckled.
"By the way,"my dad said."where's ur daughter? You havent introduce her to me"
"She didnt came with me," he continued."she's still continuing her studies but she'll move here next year."
"aww. Thats very bad."my dad exclaimed."I just wanna see her face to see whats good that she have inherited from you!"
I sighed. I was really out of place here. I look at my wristwatch and its already 10:30.
"Dad, Im going upstairs," I said to them and left them while they were having a conversation, reminiscing about their high school days.
