Chapter 4

POV Alejandro

Everything has been going very well in the last few weeks, the results of the entrance exams for the university were already starting to be published on the high school posters, my friends approved to go to the same school, I don't know if it was planned or pure coincidence, but they will study together, for my part I managed to obtain the maximum score to be able to enter and choose my own career, I plan to study mechatronics or advanced computer science, I have always liked everything that has to do with technology. What worries me is that I will have to leave the nest, the university is very far from the town where I live, so in order to study the semester properly, I must move, before I was not going to do it since that meant leaving my grandmother alone, and well I did not want to because of the state he was in, I was afraid that something worse would happen to him, but luckily my brother returned and now he will be able to take care of my grandmother while I study my career at the university.

-Hey Andro, you're not excited, we can finally get out of this poor prison to go to a better quality one -he said while laughing.

-Hehe, it's cool that we passed, although I'm surprised that you and Karla happened to take the entrance exam for the same university, don't you think it's too lucky? -I said questioning him to annoy him a bit.

-Well, my dear Andro, when you find your soul mate, you are destined to never be separated from her again, you will understand when you find yours -he said feeling proud.

-Well, I'm still glad that you were able to get in, although we will separate, I'll have to go to the city to study -I said a little sad.

-Quiet friend, I will keep you up to date with what happens here and I will take care of the patucha in your place -he said while blushing a little.

-Hehe hey, but yes, if I ever found out that you make Karla suffer, I swear to you that as a man I make you a woman anyway -I said, intimidating him a bit.

-Wow easy, I will not screw up or anything else, so that nothing goes wrong -he said a little nervous.

-You'd better do it -while we talked the bell rings -... well, I hope you're lucky in college and remember, I'll castrate you wherever you do something to Karla -I said while he made a sign that she was going to cut his neck.

~In the house~

-Hi little brother -said Ismael while he hugged me- congratulations for having entered the university, at last you will be able to find new airs and opportunities, and maybe some girls huh -he said while he nudged me.

-Hehe, thanks Ismael, and with regard to girls, I think first I'll try not to stay for the semester and from there I'll see if I can find a girlfriend who is very pretty -I said happily.

-Sweetheart, it's good that you arrived, congratulations for having managed to enter the university -my grandma said as she gave me a kiss on the cheek.

-Hehe, thank you, too, grandma...but now it's the hardest...I have to go to the city -I said a little sad.

-Oh little brother, don't worry, you can go easy, I'll take care of the grandmother so you shouldn't worry about anything -he said giving me a big smile, Ismael has beautiful dimples on his cheeks, I really envy him, he is a very handsome boy and without However, he has not found a girlfriend.

-Yes, darling don't worry, also remember that you will not leave forever, they usually give them permits for the holidays, so for those dates you can come and spend them with us -she said happily.

-Hehe thanks, I'm going to my room to start organizing things to be able to move, and on Monday I have to take the bus to go to the city -I said as I was on my way to my room

-Okay darling, I'll call you when the food is ready -dhe said smiling as he went to the kitchen

-I will help you little brother, so many things cannot be kept alone -he said while showing that beautiful smile

~Days later~

POV Ismael

Today Alejandro is going to start his own journey, I feel that just yesterday he was that tender child with pink cheeks and bright eyes that were full of amazement, well, the sparkle in his eyes remains the same as when he was little, but now he has turned into a handsome boy, I feel a little homesick, I was separated from him for almost 7 years and now that I am back, he is the one who is leaving this time, at least he is not going far, but still I worry about him, no He wanted him to leave so fast, he has not yet discovered his powers and I am afraid that they will appear when he has moved, if he does not know how to control them he can hurt him and other people who will be in his close environment. But for my part I cannot do anything, his powers must come alone, they cannot be forced, if they were forced he would end up hurt. I hope my little brother is lucky in his new path and I hope he doesn't screw up.

-Ismael, let's go or else we won't be able to fire your brother -my grandma shouted, who was already waiting for me in the car.

-Okay, I'm almost ready -I finished putting on the long-sleeved shirt and ran the car.

We started and went straight to the bus station, on the way the environment was silent, it was not an uncomfortable silence, it was simply silence, until I decided to break the ice regarding Alejandro's powers.

-Grandma...you are not worried that Ale may get hurt, if his powers arise and we are not close to her to help him -I said trying to question her.

-Aish son, you started with that again, I told you that everything happens in due time, we can still wait another year, look, I promise you something, okay, if Alejandro's powers do not emerge until before the end of the year, myself I will be in charge of revealing his true origin and that he is the possessor of those gifts, but in the meantime we must let nature flow at its own pace. Or maybe you can make a flower grow faster if you ask it, or you can make a fruit tree in autumn when its nature dictates that it should give it in spring, everything has its rhythm, sometimes it is slow and sometimes it is short "But the important thing is knowing how to wait patiently," -she said completely serene.

I was totally cold, maybe she was right, maybe I should let everything happen by itself and if it no longer does, then see how you can help it to arise, without realizing it we were already near the station, take the ticket to be able to go to the parking lot , I tried to park it near the entrance so my grandmother wouldn't walk a lot. We went to the boarding point and there was Alejandro with some other boys who apparently were also going to travel to the city.

-Alejandro!!! -she yelled to get her attention, he immediately turned to see me, showing that unique smile that he possesses.

-Ismael, it's good that you came -he said as he gave me a hug.

-How are you feeling, darling? You're ready for your trip -my grandma said affectionately.

-Yes, grandma, but...-him cut the sentence he was saying to start crying, I didn't like to see him like that, it broke my heart every time I saw him that way, when he cried the peculiar brightness that his eyes had it faded, and was replaced by a sadness that squeezed my heart every time it was in front of me.

-Oh come on little brother -I said while hugging him, he clung tightly to me- I know that it is difficult to leave the people you love, but remember that we will always be here for you, I know it will be difficult at first but when you least realize it we'll be together again, as a family, "I said as I wiped the tears from her face and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

-Yes honey, you just have to remember that you do this to have a good chance in life, so go with confidence, we will wait for you here -she said while she gave him a smile.

"Hehe they're right, but I'm still going to miss them, I love them very much," he said this and gave each of us a hug.

He got on the bus, he said goodbye to us through the window, and slowly the bus headed towards a new opportunity for Alejandro, I hope he has better luck on his journey than I had in my life.
