Chapter 15 - Chapter-15 Mind Reading : Blessing or Curse in Disguise

Max was surprised and angry. He repeated herself, " Why don't you want to learn mind reading? What is the reason? " With every sentence his voice started growing louder. I said, " Just try to calm down Max. It is like 2:00am right now. You can't scream like this and that too in the lawn. I will tell you each and everything, let's go inside. It was my mistake to say this outside the house. "

Max said, " You are right. I should not overreact without listening to what you have to say. Let's go inside and talk. "

We were about to enter the door when we found Eliza trying to eavesdrop our conversation. I said, " What in the world are you trying to do, Eliza? "

She started stammering, " I..... Uh..... I was..... I was just... "

I interrupted her, " Save your excuses for the future. You heard everything, right? "

"No. I didn't. I don't even know what you were talking about with Max. "

"Oh really? Then it's okay. I was thinking that if you heard us then, I will tell you the reason too but now that you didn't hear us, it is okay." I said pretending to go because I was sure Eliza heard us amd she can't stop herself from getting more and more curious.

Eliza caved in and said, " Fine. I know you are teasing me. I admit, I heard everything and now I want to know the reason. "

Max smiled and said, " Eliza, that is what Laura was trying to do. To make you admit that you were eavesdropping on our conversation. But it is wrong to do that and you know it very well too."

"I was just curious that what Laura wanted to say to you that she called you to the side. But Laura, why you don't want to learn mind reading? "

I said, " I will tell you both the reason. Let's go to my room. We can't talk here."

"Why? ", Eliza said.

"Because if, by any chance, my reason angers Max and he started scolding me at the top of his lungs, what will we be able to do? "

Max shouted, " Hey, I am not like that. "

"See", I said, " You are shouting. You don't realise but whenever you get angry, you scream. "

" Ohh! I got it. Now let's hear your reason before I get mad. " We then went to my room and sat together.

I said, " I think that reading other people 's mind is like interfering their privacy and I don't want to hear others secrets and thoughts without their permission and no one will allow anyone to Read their minds. Just think properly why will any one think things in their mind if they want other people to listen. They want their secrets to remain secrets only so, why should I use my power to know their secrets which they want to hide. I don't think this is right."

Max said, " I am not telling you to misuse your power. Your power is very precious and other supernatural creatures will kill to obtain this power. They do all kinds of rituals and black magic to obtain this power. You have this power and you are not willing to use it. This is stupidity, Laura. "

"I know this is a unique and special power but I still don't want to learn it, especially, after the incidents of my childhood. "

"What happened in your childhood? "

"Nothing.I just don't want to read other people's mind. "

Eliza said, " I will tell you. When Laura was a child, she was unable to control her mind reading power and being a child, she was unable to differentiate whether what she heard was the thing the other person was speaking or thinking. That is why due to some incidents, the students started excluding her saying she was strange and teachers started saying she was crazy. She suffered a lot because of that. Some people even hit her because of this. Laura is saying all this nonsence because she does not want to be reminded of those memories. Laura's powers were like a curse to him. "

After hearing everything, Max said, " I am sorry Laura, I had no idea you suffered so much but they are all wrong. Everyone who hurt you are all humans and they don't know how special and powerful you are. You are one of the most powerful creature alive. You can fly with your huge wings, you can read minds, shoot lasers, talk to animals and even heal yourself. No one in the Supernatural Kingdom had this many powers only in one creature. You are special so you need to master your power. I have never met anyone who can read minds and talk in minds too. Your powers are a boon not a curse especially, this mind reading power. About your painful past and bad experience, we can overcome them by making new memories and I promise they will be happy one. I promise it. Will you then read minds? "

I hesitated but then after thinking agreed. Max said, " You can go to sleep now. I am going to my room and tomorrow, we will try to overcome your fear. Together, with Taylor and Eliza. Good night to both of you. "

Max then went to sleep and Eliza said, " Why can't you forget everything and start things anew?"

"I will try but, by the way, what were you expecting to hear when you eavesdropped our conversation.", I said.

" I... Uh... No, Nothing. I was not expecting to hear anything. I was just curious. "

"Oh!!! Really? Don't try to fool me. You only eavesdrop people's conversation when you believe that they will talk what you are thinking. So what was that? "

"You know me too well Laura. "

"Are you gonna tell me or not? "

"Fine. I thought that you like Max and are going to confess your feelings for him. "

"What? Are you crazy? Why will I do that? No, why will I have feelings for Max? He is just my friend, like Taylor. And why did you get this stupid feeling? "

"The way you looked at him. I thought that you have feelings for him. I was wrong this time but I think I am right. Bye now, I am going to sleep. ", she said and ran to her room without listening to my answer.

"Hey Eliza, wait... Wait and listen to me..... " But she did not listen and ran away. Before going to sleep, Eliza's words were ringing in my ears and I wondered ' Do I really have feelings for Max? ' before going off to sleep.
