Chapter 43: Was Surprised Instead!

Whoop whoop

Whoosh whoosh

Carla, Kai, and the butterflies are fanning Leila who was unconscious. They were at the small hut where they came from.

Carla didn't know why but when their mother saw what happened between Claude and Annalisa, Leila gave off this eerie smile that Carla was afraid of, then her mother went unconscious.

She had no choice but to call her butterflies to carry their mother out of the passageways.

Carla bit her tiny thumbnails as she was feeling intensified. She didn't expect her mother's reaction like this, "Was I too forward?"

Kai caressed her hands in his tiny palm, "Aoddb djfk" he wanted to say it'll be alright but only gibberish words came out.

Carla rubbed his head kissed his cheek, "It's okay, mommy is fine." She looked at their mother once again, "Right, Jade?"

A blue-green butterfly emerged from Leila's front, "Master, she is healthy, however..."

Everyone stared at her, "However what?" Carla asked in worry. Her heart started to beat faster as she didn't want anything to happen to her mother because of her.

She's starting to regret her decision.

Jade flapped her wings, "I have something to report to you, master. I wasn't sure before, therefore, I didn't tell you yet, but now I'm sure this is the case."

Carla frowned and waited for her to continue.

"Master, your mother has amnesia." Jade blurted out.

"What?"

"When you gave me to her, she has a lot of scars that she hid using makeup and most of her internal organs were damaged, I don't know how she gave birth like that but I did my job and healed her every time she takes rest." Jade continued.

Carla was speechless, she didn't understand what's going. Isn't she supposed to have scars after Annalisa bullied her? Why did she already have a lot?! What changed?

"I thought you knew since I sensed something like this from you but I guessed not, I'm sorry, master." Jade flapped down her wings and bowed down.

Carla didn't care about that and asked her, "What else I didn't know? Tell me everything, please."

Jade looked up and nodded, "I healed her body before she got pregnant with Mighty Kai, however, there was something I accidentally healed."

Carla didn't bother with what they called them to Kai, it was fascinating anyway, and Jade wasn't the first one to call Kai, mighty.

Jade continued, "I was focused on her injuries and didn't notice she has wounds on her head that affected her brain, most of her neurons were damaged that led her to have amnesia."

"I didn't understand how was she still alive from that. But I could guess she was already like that years ago, probably her younger years."

Carla clutched her chest from hearing the pain her mother suffered, she didn't know why she was injured and she had no idea at all!

'How could I detest her in my past life? I am so stupid!' She said in her mind.

"W-what's going on now? Did she remember her past? Or she went unconscious like this because of, of me and m-made it worse for her?" She trembled as she asked, no matter how painful the truth is, she won't run away from it again.

Jade shimmered, "Master, as I said, I healed her before, even accidentally did. However, as much as I could see, she never remembers anything, so far. Yet now, I sensed something...danger."

That's the last thing she said before she went back to Leila's body. Carla didn't understand but with Jade's personality, she knew she came back as she felt that her mother is slowly awakening.

The other butterflies also shimmered back to where they should be.

Carla was nervous, she wanted to surprise her mother but in the end, she was surprised instead because of this revelation!

Kai quivered as she clasps on his sister's clothes slowly going away from their mother. He has no idea what's gonna happen but her senses were sharp and knew something is not good.

Even before their past life, he already has sharp senses, however, with the family, he was in, nobody cares about it and he couldn't share with anyone.

Carla held Kai's other hand to ease his mind, though, even she was anxious but knew she must face it.

No matter what's going on, Leila is still their mother and it won't change anything.

"Hmm..." Leila's eyelids twitched and slowly open her eyes, she held her head and look around.

Her children were here. She smiled sweetly. Then, she suddenly remembered what happened...

Her smile went wide almost reaching her ears that she didn't notice her children felt scared towards her.

Nevertheless, Carla looks at them with the courage to face this mother who turned out to be a stranger instantly. "M-mom,"

Leila's smiled became thin and looked at her with lifeless but amusing eyes, "Sweetie, didn't you say your father is a monster?"

"Y-yes..."

Leila kissed her forehead, "I think so too..." Her attention went to Kai and place her hands on the air, "Darling, won't you come to mommy?"

Leila sensed their fears and she could only sigh, "Mommy might be scary but I promised to never hurt my children. I swear on my blood."

Kai and Carla looked at each other then stared back at her. The confidence Carla had was now gone and only doubt and scared was all that left. Still, she trusts her mother.

Looking at his sister, Kai reached out to their mother and tried to stand up and walked towards their mother.

Leila gave him a sweet embrace then asked them, "Would you mind telling me for how long did you know?"
