Secrets

Chapter nine

I couldn't tell if he was telling the truth or not, well I have to for now because at the moment he is the only family I have left.

"Hey dad, do you mind if start searching for mum tomorrow. I just want to get a head start on it and I am really sorry I came back late, I had forgotten that I have wings".

I want to know what he is thinking, I need to figure out how to work these damn powers on command instead of accidental. Maybe Tamani can help, that is if he isn't mad at me for me coming back here.

'Maybe if she can get her mother back, I can change and become a better man. Not just for her but the twins that I have been blessed with'.

I smile at his thoughts and can't help but feel partly responsible for this change, maybe I don't have to pretend to be evil after all. Any way he is my father, so I shouldn't have to act like someone I'm not around him; I should be able to be myself. I do feel more myself here in wonderland and in Tamani's arms. Tamani, my Mr, my love.... My everything, I can't wait to see him again and to see my mother. She better have a good explanation for this. 

Dad shows me to my new room, it has nearly everything purple and black. Black bed and purple spread sheets, the curtains are black and the walls are purple. There is a walk in wardrobe and a private bathroom, along with a mirror cupboard. This is AMAZING! If i want to start looking for my mother, I better get some sleep. The next morning i wake up at 7:00 am, It's a beautiful sunny morning, but it's different. It's like I'm still in a dream state. All I can see is Tamani, his black wavy hair and his cheeky grin along with his newly shaven beard. 

I go into the kitchen only to find dad cooking breakfast, he looks up.

"I used to cook breakfast for your mother every morning, it was the best part of each day. Waking up to find her next to me and then getting to cook for her, those days were the best days".

I can't see why mum would leave him, he loved her so much. Yet that's exactly what she does, leaves the ones who loves her the most. Dad still loves her, even after everything that she has done to him. I'm glad that I met him and I think that if i can find mum and get her back, then that might just be the first step to getting his life back on track and to get him to help fix wonderland.

"I promise you dad, I will find mum and I will bring her back for you. I'll start as soon as i have finished breakfast, I love you dad and i hope you can hold onto that while i search for her. Can you do that for me"?

He stares at me for a while after I have finished, but he does manage a little nod. He seems to gather his bearings after a little bit.

"Yeah i can do that for you, but do you actually think you can find her"?

I take in a shaky breath before answering.

"In honestly I don't know, but I am willing to try and I promise to not come back empty handed, but while I am gone you need to try and fix wonderland and make peace with the people. Because if you don't they are going to hate you for the rest of your life and i swear to god if you don't make amends, then I will find my mother; question her myself and will never return  back to you with or without her. Please dad, I have seen how nice you are. Please do this for me, do this for Dimitri, for yourself and most importantly for wonderland, for your home. I think you owe them and yourself at least that".

He seems to nod a lot because that's the only thing i got out of him. After I have finished breakfast and have packed my things, I set out to find my mother. I have no idea where to start looking, so before i start anything I am going to go find Tamani and the rest. If there still where i left them. There is no one here, I look around but i still don't see them. As I spread my wings, i hear someone shouting.

"ROSE DOWN HERE, ROSE HELP US PLEASE"

I can't see anyone, but then an idea comes to mind. What if the reason i can't see them is because they are invisible? So all i need is to make them visible again, but what spell can make the invisible, visible again?

"Hang on guys, i'm going to make this right, i promise".

God I'm making so many promises today and i'm not even sure if i can keep them all, but i am sure as hell not giving up yet. Mainly because i haven't even started looking yet and because the responsibility of saving wonderland now depends on me and i can't fail. It's my home now too and it's my job to save it and everybody who lives here, because if I give up without even trying then all hope will be lost and wonderland will surely perish and it will be all my fault.  A spell comes to mind, I guess it's worth a try.

"Let the object or objection become but a dream, as i cause the unseen to be seen".

They all become visible again and now that i see them and we've
