"How are things since earlier today?" O'Connor asked me
"Some what clearer, but still some much more I need and want to know!" I told him
"I know and you will learn more as you go, your training is a year and a day. So plenty of time!" he said
"Yes but if you have not already guessed I am not a patient person and I will get what I need one way or the other!" I said with a fake smile big and bright and skipped like a child into the kitchen to help mom. OMG! Did I really just skip out of the living room like a child! Julia thought to herself as she hit her forehead with the palm of her hand.
"What is wrong with you Julia?" my mother Jacqueline Wholeheart asked in her very motherly voice
"How comes every time I am around him I turn into this stupid, giddy, defiant little girl? I am not that girl and I do not want to turn into her!" I said to my mother
"I do not mind that you turn into a stupid, giddy, defiant little girl around him it show that you like him and your heart and mind do these things to try to keep him seeking who you really are! You are always so grown up let yourself enjoy your girly giddiness!" she said laughing and kissing me on my forehead where I hit myself.
I helped my mother finish up dinner and took it to the table. I went back into the kitchen to get the drinks and I got this cold chill down my body that someone was watching me from the woods by my house. I forgot to shut off the water faucet and walked to the back door, I opened the door and the feeling I got when I stepped onto the back porch almost made me sick. The hair stood up on the back of my neck and I knew was whatever was out there was pure hatred.
"JULIA!" my father yelled
I snapped back to reality and turned to see I forgot to remove the drain cover and the sink overflowed onto the kitchen floor. "Dad I am sorry, I felt that someone or something was..." I trailed off and decide to not say anything else but "I am sorry I will clean it up and be out in a minute!"
"Shut the door...No get away from the door NOW!" He said running and slamming the door and then I heard a huge "BAM" like someone just hit it really hard. My Dad opened the door and a huge rock was lying on the porch he kicked it off really quickly thinking I did not see it.
"That was weird!" he said shrugging his shoulder like it was nothing. I just looked at him dumb founded shook my head and finished my cleanup. I finally made it into dinner with every ones drinks and sat across from Detective O'Connor.
After dinner I still got no answers my parents kept Detective O'Connor all to themselves. Myself and O'Connor tried to get away to talk but mom and dad would not allow him to move an inch. I tried to get his attention by trying to lightly kick him under the table but my foot flung to hard and made connect take extremely hard.
"OOOUUCCCHH!" he said leaning down to rub his shine, and glaring at me. I lipped I was sorry which put a smile on his face.
"You OK O'Connor?" Dale asked
"Yeah just a cramp in my shin!" He said
I think he got what I wanted though he gave me a quick nod. I smiled and finished my dinner offered to clear the table and do dishes thinking O'Connor would get the hint to do the same so I could talk to him. I cleared my throat and looked at me then O'Connor.
"Julia I think you need to get some rest you have quite the shock these past few days!" she said in a voice that was not to be fought with.
"Fine, goodnight!" I said "Nice to see you again hope to see you sooner rather than later!" I told him
"Yes you will goodnight!" O'Connor said.
"I miss you already!" I heard him say in my head as I hit the stairs. It made me feel warm, loved and safe for some reason.
I thought for sure I would have more answers tonight, but nope nothing. I even looked up on the internet and when I looked up "Witches", "Modern Day Witches", or even "Fantasy witches" (I do not suggest look up that last one, YUCK!) but all I got was conflicting information. So here I am sitting in my room with nothing yet again.
Well I will continue my research and let you know my progress later!
