Emma and the Legendary book

CHAPTER SIX

Why did they lie to me, I look at both of them and all I see is guilty.

"we never meant to lie to you sweetie, but something prevented us."

" what prevented you from speaking the truth, we are always honesty with each other I have never hide anything from you two not even something that I should have just spoken with my friend."

mom tries to reach for my hand but I yank it away from her.

" honey you making all this difficult for us I know we lied but that's all that we have hid from you."

dad is right but still they didn't have to keep this from me.

"yes baby we didn't mean to lie to you please forgive your parents."

I look at them again, am angry at them why did they hide something like this from me and 125 and 120.

I mean my parents look younger nobody would even tell that they are that old.

"am still mad at the two of you, but tell me what are we."

both my parents sigh and gestures for me to take a seat on my bed.

They tell me everything from first to last and how they never knew how I was the chosen one and how it is making sense to them now because of all the sleepless nights and how my skin has been glowing of late.

my mind drift to a he again that has my heart I wish it would have been him.

"you don't need to think too much about it baby, if she chose you it means it's for a good reason."

I hope so, been a leader of such mythical creatures is overwhelming and discovering that your parents are wizards is just something.

*******.

The days in my life come and go in a blur as I learn how wizardry works. meetings some of my people who came from MUKULU KINGDOM interacting with them and getting to know them without telling them that I am the chosen one their leader.

I have become close to the book attached even, we speak about everything and anything but still the book won't show me who he is, it said in due time I will know who he is.

"so now that she knows everything what else follows."

my dad ask. both me and mom turns our attention to the book and stops eating.

"well the time has come for her to go."

I stop chewing the food that is in my mouth and stay still. does that mean I will go to MUKULU KINGDOM.

"when?"

my mom grimace when she ask the question.

" know this, the chosen one brought you out of that boundary when she cursed the kingdom but when she go back you also go back, none of you will know what will happen when you cross the curse but everything is already their people you know here will also be there."

they should have told me earlier that this is how my world is gonna be.

"can I sleep over at Chrisha tonight."

I need to see him one more time. although our relationship has improved a bit he still keeps his distance and it hurts.

"of course baby you can go before it's gets dark."

I get up and go back to my room to get my school backpack.

I bid everyone and heads to Chrisha house.

While Chrisha is asleep I go to her window and seat on the window sill, I look to his window and see the light is still on. it means he is awake. I look up to the stars as they twinkle in the night the moon shining so bright like it's trying to give me hope.

"why do you always look at the stars."

am startled by his voice that still gives me goosebumps and make me shiver.

I look at him seating at his window sill.

" I feel a special connection to the stars I feel they understand my unspoken words."

it is true I feel a special connection to the stars like they watch over me all the days of my life.

"it's kinda nice to feel that, am going somewhere I don't know how long it will take I just hope I will find you this town I can't wait to tell you all my unspoken words. goodnight Emma."

before I can even respond he shuts the window and switch off the light.

but where is he going. I don't know if he will find me here or not and or by then if I will still want him I guess my heart was being promised to another. I hope whenever he will be, he will be happy.

why does life have to treat us like this it's so unfair.

I left Chrisha's house in the early morning to come to my house only to discover that we are going to night to MUKULU KINGDOM how sweet of my life.

been a weekend my parents and I prepare ourselves.

night comes too fast and I feel more scared than I already am.

I look at my parents and the book as they converse to each other and I can't help the smile that stretches my lips seeing them happy but I feel sad when Mr Augustine words Pierce through my heart. what if I never gets to see him what if that goodbye was a forever goodbye what if I fall in love with the man that has my heart.

" where your heart belongs is where it belongs Emma, it is not going to be someone elses heart."

I give the book a little smile although I don't know what he means.

we all say goodnight and go to our room, the Legendary book sleeps in my room.

the book didn't say how we will go to MUKULU KINGDOM he just said we will be there by morning. well I guess this is goodnight.
