FLASHBACK LINK

CRATER POV

Crater started to walk towards their house after he runs away from his brother.

He is hurt by the revelation of Caelum's feelings towards the girl that he liked.

And he is fuming from what he had discovered.

His magical pet, Tamtam, a rainbow-colored, 3 inches in height with bunny features, and it has small wings like fluffy cotton and no hind feet, keeps following his master.

"I couldn't believe this! How could that happen?" he said feeling infuriated.

"Tamtam knows, Tamtam" his pet replied in his soft and cute voice.

"NO! How did Caelum have a relationship with Emirose?"

"Tamtam, love Master!" his pet said repeatedly.

"Yes, I know Tamtam, but this is the first time that Caelum and I, will have a major clash if that happens," he responded to his loving pet.

"I will not accept defeat. I will make sure Mom and Dad will give me the chance to choose my twin flame first!" he added.

"Tamtam, scared, Tatam," the magical pet said repeatedly then, rushed towards his neck and hugged its wings to cover himself and make a squeal scared sound.

Crater touches his magical pet with his fingers lovingly, and said: "I'm so sorry Tamtam if you got scared."

Then, he entered the house and start searching for his parents in the coven who were chatting in the parlor room.

Everyone is just chilling, using their magical skills in preparing the huge double celebration.

Almost everything flies in the air and moves by itself, decorating the dining area, while the witches were just in the parlor room and dining area, having some teas.

And in the kitchen, pans and cooking wares and all ingredients just move like some cooking guru moving around and display his expertise.

That's how easy to live and work in a witch family and community.

Then he speaks again, "I need to find my parents before Caelum could tell them his heart's desire, Tamtam" He muttered his words and his pet replied "Tamtam, not understand, Tamtam".

"You see Tamtam, I have always been very fair in everything between me and my twin brother, Caelum but I can't stand it if I'll lose Emirose." He said to Tamtam and feeling edgy.

While his magical pet keeps on bracing his neck.

Then, he added, "Yes, call me selfish but she's the only one that stands out among the other young witches in our community."

"Tamtam, understood, Tamtam." while keep bracing him.

His search is over when he found his parents talking to the parents of Emirose. He is feeling lucky to see them! The universe sent him a beautiful surprise.

His heart jumps for joy and said, "Tamtam, return to your ball! I need to talk to them".

"Tamtam, yes follow, Tamtam Master" Tamtam replied and vanished in the air.

Then, Crater flashed his best grin, approached the group, and greeted them respectfully.

And he started to express his feelings and intentions towards Emirose "Hello, everyone! Mom, Dad, Mr. and Mrs. Evergreen, I know that the time of the traditional picking of our twin flame will be after our birthday celebration but... I couldn't wait any longer to express my pure intentions toward Emirose. I'm asking permission and hoping to have her as my twin flame in good fate." Crater said sternly.

" That's so sweet of you Crater to express your intentions and heart's desire towards our princess Emirose. We appreciate it very much! Well, we are not against anything with our tradition, you are a fine young man for our Emirose. Surely, your future together will be a major success for both of our families and our community." Then, Mr. and Mrs. Evergreen shakes my hand and my parent's hand as a seal of approval.

But where's Emirose?

Could they be?

CAELUM'S POV

After I watched Crater run back into the house.

The wind whispers, calling out my name.

"Cael... Cael... come... into the pond". That's Emirose voice calling me.

I quickly summoned my gold wand to help me transported to the pond, which is situated at the very far end of our farm.

In a snap, I arrived at our beautiful pond, I am welcomed by different kinds of flowers and berries, surrounding the area.

Then, I saw her... "Hey, beautiful princess!" I called out Emirose in full excitement.

She has settled herself in her favorite spot and looking at the pond, the place, where we used to share our beautiful memory during the May Eve festival last year.

She titled her head to look at me and flashed her brightest smile.

Then, I swiftly seated beside her and give her a tight hug.

Her face is perfectly proportioned and she has the sweetest smile.

She's glowing as the sun's light touches her skin.

Oh... this feeling, I couldn't bear to lose her with my younger brother.

She's a precious gem, I'm feeling complete if she's around.

And Crater? I have known him so well, he will just break her heart.

I couldn't afford to think about the future without her, I even missed her even if we talked on Skype every day.

"Hey,' Cael! Are you with me? You're acting like, you saw a ghost?" she punched me on my shoulder and giggled.

"Nah, I just saw an angel that was sent by the Universe, for me to cherish and love," I said it like I'm in my poetry class. She punched me again and I quickly took her hand and kissed them. Then, we ended up laughing.

Then, she suddenly stares at me in her most serious look.

And started talking "Cael, Happy Birthday!" then she gave me a small box, "Open it!" she beamed.

Then, she speaks again, "I made it for you Cael, hope you like it!" she said full of excitement.

I opened the box as she requested and I'm amazed by the beautiful multi-layer leather bracelet with a tree of life amulet and my name is engraved on it.

"Oh my goodness! It's very beautiful, Rosie!" I exclaimed and took it out from the box and wear it on my wrist. I was very delighted by the gift.

Then, suddenly sadness was shown on her face.

"What's wrong Rosie? Did I say something that offended you?"

She shakes her head.

"Please Rosie, please tell me what makes you feel the sadness?" I persuaded her to speak.

"I... I saw a premonition last night while we're talking on Skype" her tears started to fall.

"It showed me that your brother, Crater will be using his power to manipulate the picking of the twin flame. Then, I saw you... I saw you vanished in the air." She said while subbing.

"Hey, it's okay Rosie, hush now... That will not happen when my parents are around. They know how to control Crater with his power. Please cheer up!" And I wiped her tears and hugged her tight.

"Rosie... I just want to ask you something"

"Hmmm?" she replied.

"Rosie, my beautiful princess... Will you be my twin flame for the rest of my life?" I asked her earnestly.

"Caelum De Reilly! Are you serious???" She looked at me in the eyes.

Then, she replied "Yes! I will Cael." And she gave me a quick kiss on my cheek.

"I couldn't wait to tell my parents about it! Let's go Cael... I think they're now looking for us". She stood up and dragged me to stand.

I flashed my widest grin and raised my right hand to summon my gold wand and we arrived in front of the house in a snap.

"There you are! We have been looking for both of you. We will start the celebration now! Please get in the house." My mom's voice is sounding hysterical, then she gets back inside the house.

"Yes, mom! where coming!" I replied.

I reached out for Rosie's hand and hold her tight, then walk towards the house.

CRATER'S POV

And so they're here.

My heart is torn apart as I saw them holding their hands while walking inside the house.

How could they do this in front of me and everybody?

We will see later.

If my plan A will not work there's always plan B and plan C.
