Laura was disturbed that night, that she couldn't sleep, she was busy thinking about what her husband said. After waiting for the clock to continue its continuous movement before reaching 4, she stood up and went to Nora's room for them to have a little chat.
" Nora woke up, we need to talk, " Laura said while tapping at Nora slightly for her to wake up and she did wake up with a frown
" what is it mom" she groaned with sleepy eyes and yawned, stretching herself
" I have something to ask of you," she said, sitting on the bed beside Nora
" and what could that be ?, I hope is something I can do," she said with raised brows but Laura ignored her and went straight to the point
" I want you to stay calm with Kein so that your father can stop disturbing me about him, you know that you are the only one that can put all these to its end, as you know, the school will be resuming next week and both of you will be studying in the same school and grade, so I want you to be nice towards him, teaching him what he needs to know about your school, how the school works and subjects taught, can you do this for me ?" she asked with a pleading tune
" Are you done? , mom, you know me very well and you know that what you are asking of me cannot be done " she said and covered her body with a bed cover, pretending to sleep. Nora signed and stood up to leave but remembered something, she turned around and looked at Nora for a long time
" why hate Kein" she finally asked. immediately she asked that Nora quickly removed the bed cover she used to cover herself and sat on her bed
" here I thought you will never ask," she said and continued with a frowned face " number one, he is a stranger that came out of nowhere to my house, does this house looks like a runaway's home? secondly, he is too handsome to be considered my brother ..."
" Now I know what your problem is" Laura scoffed, interrupting Nora
" I haven't finished yet mom, moreover, he is so weird and awkward at the same time, and finally, ever since he intruded on our peaceful home, we have been having unnecessary arguments that we shouldn't have, he is taking away your love for me " she lamented and started sobbing slightly. Laura seeing her daughter in tears, went closer to her to console her
" That's not true, I love you with my whole heart and we have been having this fight ever since you turned sixteen " Laura said rubbing her back gently for her to stop crying " I know I might be hard on you but am doing it for your sake "
" How ? "
" as a mother, I have to train my kid to be a responsible child, I didn't want you to get lost, so can you stop crying now and become a woman you have already become" she consoled her while cleaning her tears with the back of her hand making Nora to stopped crying and went back to bed
" I will consider what you said but right now I need to rest, so mom, can you please close the door on your way out, " Nora said while closing her eyes. Laura stood to leave but stopped at the door
" don't forget your promise," she said and closed the door. Laura waited in the corridor for some time before deciding to go see Kein. Kein was wide awake in his bed and looking at his ceiling when the door was opened without a knock, he jumped out of his bed and stretched out his hands towards the intruder but wasn't making use of his power. Kein has been staying alert at night because of his continuous nightmares that won't stop coming and also, he was scared that scavengers might attack him at night when he is still at sleep.
" hey calm down's me, what is so scared of " Laura exclaimed seeing how alerted Kein was
" oh sorry, I was having a nightmare before you came in " Kein explained, going back to his bed and Laura followed behind
" Kein is there anything troubling you, please you are free to say it out," she said and sat on the bed
" no, am comfortable but thank you for asking "
" but I didn't see that, apart from you being an alien and having golden hair, is there anything else you are not telling me ? " she asked, being worried about kein's sleepless nights
" no, I don't think I have, but when am ready, I will tell you everything but for now, I think am okay "
" Okay then, but remember that no matter how hard you tried to hide things, one day it must surely be revealed," she said and stood up to back to her room " I will be taking you to a salon tomorrow to dye your hair cause I won't allow you to be known with evil with your strange hair," she said and left, leaving Kein, who was busy contemplating whether to tell Laura the truth or not
will the truth be known
please comment whether good or bad
The next day, Nora barged into kein's room, opening the door with force
" hey Kein, am reading, you can come and join me, that's if you like," she said and left the same way she came in " Nora asking me to join her and read, what happened," Kein thought for a moment before standing up to join her
" This is biology and I will be reading about cells today, so as you know, the cell is the basic unit of life ....."
" what's biology and what's a cell," Kein asked interrupting Nora who was trying her best to explain the topic to him
" in case you don't know, I am in the science department, so if your dumb brains can't handle it, you better tell my mom, so she can know what to do," Nora said with a little anger while searching for another subject to read cause Kein has destroyed her desire to read that morning
" do your school teaches how someone can be able to control and add more strength to his ability or how to cross a portal gate ?" Kein asked out of nowhere making Nora narrow her eyes at him
" Are you nut ? " she finally asked pointing a finger at her brains, after looking at Kein for a long time
" Okay, what of how someone can be able to survive on different planets, use different weapons or the history of the world....."
" I can see you have gone completely crazy," she said while gathering her books together for her to leave for her room " mom ! come and take this crazy thing out of here, am done!" she left for her room with a heart filled with rage. Hearing her daughter's shout, Laura stormed out of her room already dressed in a matched outfit " were is Nora " she asked immediately she came to the sitting room, she looked around the room and saw no sign of her daughter
" Are you guys done ?"
" yes, I think so" Kein answered, nodding his head in confirmation
" okay, I hope there's no problem ?" she asked with raised brows while bringing out her hands like a " what is it" sign and he shakes his head
" okay then, I will be taking you to barbershop as I told you last night, the barber will dye your hair black and add more style to your hair so you wouldn't be easily recognized," she said to let Kein know of her intention. after, Kein went inside and dressed up before they zoomed off.
After Kein has been given well-dyed hair cut, that made him look more handsome than before and brought out most of his striking features, Laura received a phone call which she picked and the caller informed her that people in the street were frightened due to the different colors of light that zoomed passed them on the road, putting them all in confusion. the news made Laura take Kein back home and left for work to handle some issues.
when Laura got back from work it was midnight, though to them trying to figure out why this havoc is happening on earth, does it mean that the end of time that was being mentioned in the bible had come to pass?
Donald has already gotten back from work before his wife and he was shocked to see kein's new hair cut " Kein, you don't want to tell us what you are hiding" he said in his mind after looking at kein's hair
" you know very well that dyeing only his hair won't prevent him from being recognized " Donald pointed out immediately after he heard his wife's footsteps " you could have done a plastic surgery also " he sarcastically said
" at least, this will do for now " Laura retorted while heading upstairs to freshen up, it has been a hectic day.
That night, Kein had a dream that made him realize that his life is going to change at any second.
