Sitting on my bed with my hands over my face, I just got off the phone with Emma. I understand she wants to help, but I don't want to burden her with this, she's the reason I'm having a hard time making up my mind. I turned 18 last week and the morning of my birthday I woke up from a vision the Earth Goddess gave me, she gives us visions of our soulmates on our 18th birthday. But I'm not sure about my vision because we still haven't received my scroll from the Buddhist God. I'm scared out of my mind, what if the scroll comes and it has two or more names on it and what if the person from my vision isn't on the scroll. Sometimes I wish I wasn't a witch-genie, sometimes I wish I was just a normal human.
Knock Knock "Michael are you ready?" my mom's asks through the door.
"Yeah, I'll be down in a minute" I said back getting off my bed. I walk over to my dresser mirror and give myself a once over, I'm wearing a white button up shirt with a blue tie that I left loose around the collar, a pair of black slacks and a pair of black dress shoes. I run my fingers threw my hair and let it fall past my shoulders, "I should really get a haircut" I tell myself, but Emma really loves my hair the way it is and if I cut it she'll probably kill me. I smile just thinking about her and then I remember why I was sulking in the first place. I take a deep breath, grab my phone and leave my room to head downstairs. I walk into the kitchen to find my parents sitting at the table eating breakfast. My father is an Egyptian Genie, 6'1 with tan skin, silky black hair and black eyes. My mother is a beautiful 5'4 Witch with brown hair that hangs just below her shoulder blades, lightly tanned skin and the most amazing hazel eyes you'll ever see.
"Good morning" I say taking my seat next to my dad's right.
"Good morning" my father replies taking a sip of his coffee. "Have you decided what you're going to say to the council?" he asks me with a concerned look.
"I'm not sure" I said looking at my parents. "I've gone over what to say over and over again in my head, but I'm still not sure " I continue telling them.
My mother looks at me with tearful eyes then looks at my dad who puts a hand on my shoulder then looks me in the eyes. "Is it because of the vision?" he asks me. I look at him and nod with tears threatening to escape my eyes.
"I'm afraid that I'll loose her if I make the wrong choice" I exclaim. "I've waited my whole life hoping and praying to the Earth Goddess that she would be my soulmate and now that I know she is I'm afraid of loosing her, not being able to have her in my life. What if I choose the wrong side and the Earth Goddess takes her from me?" I tell them with fear and worry in my eyes.
My mom gets up and walks over to me wrapping her arms around my shoulders hugging me, "The Goddess Eliza wouldn't give you a vision of your soulmate just to take her away from you" she says to me kissing my head. She pulls away fro me then looks me in the face "what ever happens your father and I will be there to help you through it" she tells me with a smile.
