Prove It

Priscila's eyes opened wide in disbelief as she looked at her daughter smiling. She noticed that her daughter didn't deny her claim through the latter's body language. 

She smiled but she didn't nod nor she shook her head. She didn't deny the adversity of comprehending her revelation. Anyone could proclaim that they were reincarnated, but not even their own parents would believe them. 

Priscila made a harsh swallow before she reached out her daughter's arms with hers. Holding her daughter's hands she asked, "Are you really the War Maiden? The one from the story? You are her reincarnation?"

Cecile smiled as she asked, "Do you believe it, mother?"

Priscila felt like she had entered into the jumbled mess of a maze with no exit. To just believe that her daughter was the reincarnation from the legendary story that she heard when she was a kid was a tough thing to do. Not even the word yes was easy to say out loud.
