"Besides, it's two years of high school and you're done."
May turned away with years brimming in her eyes. 'I wish mum were here, I wouldn't even have to do this.' She said in her and faced him when she noticed that he was holding her hands now.
"May, I am also doing this because this is what your mum would want fro..
"Oh no you don't!! Don't bring mum into this.. mum would want to do what would make me happy!!" May cut in pulling her hands out of his.
"Right! Of course you know that.. but where is she now.. she isn't here now is she?!!" Uncle Jeff fired back.
Damien and May stared at him shocked and Damien sighed knowing that this was taking a toll on him. If only May could be mature enough to understand.
Sighing deeply he stared at May right in the eyes and said slowly, " She made me promise to make sure you had a normal life even with everything that has been happening and that's what I am trying to do here, May, so please, I want you to understand me." Uncle Jeff pleaded as he looked into her green eyes that were filled with tears.
He knew this was hard for her because nothing had been simple in May's life. Change had always been fast and constant in her life and it was not all the time the she liked it or could handle it.
Everything she loved doing at one point of her life was always removed or changed and she was left with nothing but heartbreak.
Behind them Damien sighed again.. 'this was gonna be a long night' he thought and removed his glasses. He was getting tired of them already but he hated contacts but had to make do with them.
He stared at his little sister, who was still reeling from the shock that her favorite person just yelled at her and he sighed again. He had to stop doing that else it will show on his face. This was the only way to get the public eye off them for a while. May would start school and live like a normal student and then he would be able to tackle those rumors about their family. Their secret was paramount to them and ironically they had to show their secret to the world but in her other form.
This was gonna be a long year as well!!
