18 scarlet witch: Rejection (1)

I never meant to harm my family. It's just that sometimes I wanted to feel superior as them.

By looking at 'someone' with the same face as mine. I wondered why cannot I obtain what she had?

I thought they will praise me for my genius head if they know it was me protecting them for the last 4 years? will things became different?

out of the blue, she became the apple of everyone's eyes. I mean, who would believe such incompetent with no magis like me was the one that create those protection stones?

'if only, one day I wish to see, they look up at me and say thank you?'

A slimy hand extended from the shadows of the trees outside of her room. It began to cover her entire face leaving the black mucus resting on her face that will share something she must not see.

Lailita slide her mask to the top of her head. The night air was quite chilly. With a boost she got from Vivy, her temperature still the way they were. Cold to bones.

A paper flew towards her, as she reached for it and read the sentence on it she frowned.

The message written by her sister immediately burn after she dropped it. Her heart was racing.

Lailita whistle calling out for her eagle and jumped to his back. To when she arrived, it was too late, everything had ended.

Slowly she approach a familiar face she long for, her lips trembled when she hold her tears.

She touched Laila's cheeks with a tearing eyes, A voice echoed in her darkened mind, countless time.

'I embrace her body with my fingers as cold as her arm, I cried'

Those charcoal eyes was shifting to the colour of the sky when a day had ended. she was furious.

Didn't bothered to why she woke up a sweaty and breathes abnormally, her father came to her room and asked her to apologize to Jennie.

"what?" Lailita massage her chest that was beating so hard. She was paler and lost some weight due to her insomnia.

"you burnt her alive, so you must apologize and repent to what you did" Jasom dragged her from the bed.

Her knees had no strength to lift her body and she falls. "dad!" she pulled her hand.

"why does it have to be me?" Jasom had enough of embarrasement that he refused to listened to his daughter and dragged her again.

But the grip was not that strong so Lailita can pulled it back twice.

"she bullied me, she pinch ed my ears, bumped onto me, pulled my hair that I cut It so short yet It wasn't enough to stop Jennie from pulling it." she gasped.

"she even left me to drowned in the forest! she did that out of nothing and she never apologize why should I?" she screamed.

"even if it's true, you must not pay back what she did. It only leave a bad ending to both of you! kindness is what we offer to evil" Lailita cannot believe what her father said to her. So all this time, her father knew she was treated badly by all people in her surrounding and let away with it? because he believe it was nothing and over some time people will change and be different later on?

then how about me? Am I a stone of humiliation that would not break when smashes countless time?

"are you really my father?" Lailita told her fafher to stay back when he came closer.

"you must have hate me a lot didn't you?"

ever since that day, I felt superior. I know I should not feel this way but being honest with my feelings makes me happy.

"what are you talking about?" said Jasom.

"For I'm the reason your brother died" Jasom freaked out.

"who told you?"

"so it's true? Who I heard it from it doesn't matter. But you said it loud and clear I'm the chosen one" Jasom flinch and telling Lailita it was not true.

"how could you do this to me? you should have let me die rather than sealing my magis away! how ignorant!" the girl threw everthing near her towards Jasom.

"you said you love me, but I cannot sense it from any of you. Am I left to live to be a laughing stock father? " she exchanged the way he call him.

Jasom was speechless. "you talked about apologizing, forginess and equality? you should have sealed both of us from the moment we born. She's supposed to die why me!"

Jasom was aware that the elder talked to her about the truth because she will die anyway.

The chosen one is the one selected by noirs because she held a strong magis that can destroy those demons. So they wanted to eat the child before she gotten stronger. So her power was supposed to be protected rather than sealed away.

while Laila was born equals to her twins that both of them held the same ability, so when they born they were confused who needed to be sealed.

"it wasn't me, even if it's me you shouldn't have done that. You should have ask your child what will her parents intended to do to her.." lailita cried when she raises her voice to her father.

when she said that, she also shaking and breath uncomfortably.

"hey..listen." Jasom sat infront of his daughter.

"I did that because I love you. Your magis was stronger than your sister so I thought It was you. I'm sorry" Jasom grabbed her hands hoping she will forgive him.

"No" she said loud and clear.

"What is it that we must do to prove you are matter to us" he tried again to get rid of the sulk.

"Is that how you tricked your son before you slit his throat?" her next question caught him off guard that his eyes shakes to the truth folded long before she was born.

"You never ask why I cannot sleep. This is the reason father." Jasom had no power to shield from her word. So he went quiet.

"now if you please, let go of my hand so that I will kneeled in front of my cousin for her forgiveness. So I now the intepretation of a sincere apologizing" Lailita rushed out of the room so that her father won't be able to catch her because he could no longer to see his face.
