Breaking The Guardians Curse

Phoebe couldn't believe what she just heard. "Mom, I don't understand. How do you mean, you are not our mother?" "I met Gwen and Chad on the street all alone and I had no other choice but to take them in." "Did you find me on the street too?" Claudia shook her head and stood up. She went close to the window, staring at the abyss. It was like the past was calling out to her. "Your mother gave you to me." "Why? She didn't want me anymore?" "No, your mother was a very nice woman. She cared for everyone in the kingdom. I still remembered how she stood up for every woman when they were being cheated on in the kingdom." "Kingdom?" Phoebe asked. Claudia looked at her and said, "You come from a kingdom called Havilla, that was where you were born." "What happened then? Why did I leave? Why did my mom give me to you?" "There was a massacre going on in the kingdom and your mother was among the unfortunate few." Phoebe tried so hard to withhold her tears. These people were strangers to her but why does it hurt so much? "And my father." "Your father was a guardian of messages. He delivers messages to the people but he did something that was against the rule of the guardians and he had to pay for it with his life." She walked up to meet Claudia and asked, "What did he do?" Claudia looked at Phoebe and smiled, "He fell in love with your mother. Guardians falling in love with humans was a crime but no one has control of his or her heart. We can't dictate to our hearts who to love. Their relationship was a beautiful one but it wasn't meant to be."
