Making sense

We cried for a very long time at the memories we had of my mom. Though, she acted as a scaredy cat and weak, she never let anything happen to me. She didn't let me face any adverse situations.

" But mother, you are saying that she was elder than you and had existed for thousands of years then, why didn't she aged then ? Why did she aged when she was with us ? "

I asked confused.

" My dear, I just told you, a witch can't die with magic in her. She didn't thought of seizing her existence then. But just like I got fade up of my life and wanted my sons to kill me, she too got fade up existing for an eternity.

She didn't aged earlier because of the magic in her. After having you she decided to end her life. And so, she collected her magic and started to age just like a normal human being.

She didn't had anyone to pass on the magic to. You were young and didn't had anyone then. When we were young she had faced many miscarriages. But we didn't lost the hope.

When I had Ethan and she noticed what a humble and gentleman he was, she asked me to let her daughter marry Ethan if, she had one someday.

But her husband divorced her and she couldn't have any daughter. Even though she put me in the coffin, we were in touch and knew everything happening in her life; as nothing much could happen in a closed coffin.

When she had you, she told me that and reminded me of my promise to marry her daughter to Ethan.

For that to happen, she had tracked Ethan and Kevin's movements and planned the accident. "

Mother said.

I was shocked to listen to it. I dared a glance at Kevin and he was infuriated listening to it. Obviously anybody would have the same reaction. She chose Ethan over Kevin. I just hope he doesn't take it out on Ethan now !

" Why didn't she chose me mother ? "

Kevin growled.

Uh-oh.

What would mother say now ? Please God don't let anything stupid happen to Kevin. Don't let him loose his mind.

" Darling, I don't blame you for your behavior because it was the outcome of what you had faced.

Whenever she saw you, you were always grumpy and angry. And women like soft-hearted and loving men. And she never saw you like that and so, she thought you are heartless, nothing else. "

Mother said softly caressing his head.

Though he didn't said anything but his face was more than enough to tell what was he feeling. He was jealous and feeling insulted for mom didn't chose him.

" But mother, what about Evelyn ? We are froze for centuries. It's not like Amber is the first woman we are with. Nobody convinced a baby with us, then Eve ? "

Ethan said changing the topic.

" That's the magic son. She had planned the accident and put her magic inside Amber before she died. "

Mother said.

" What ? When ? I don't remember anything. "

I said confused.

" How would you know dear? It isn't something like helping someone change clothes that, they will know what's happening to them! "

Mother said.

It still didn't made any sense to me.

" Amber, tell me one thing what is your qualification ? "

Mother asked suddenly.

" I am sorry, what ? "

I asked confused.

What does the magic and my education have in common ?

" Have you learned science ? "

Mother said changing her question.

" Ofcourse. But what does it have to do with the accident or the magic ? "

I asked.

" I am telling you the exact thing ! Do you remember how did the accident happened ? "

Mother asked.

" Ofcourse. We were in our car in our lane at a moderate speed. A truck crashed with full speed on our car. The impact was so high, I got threw out from the window and the car blasted with mom and dad inside. "

I told her.

How can I forget the bloody accident who snatched my parents from me ? Ethan caressed my arm.

" You have learned science right, so answer my questions. Were you wearing your seat belt ? "

Mother asked.

" Yes I was. Dad never let me sit without fastening the seat belt. "

I answered.

" Then, technically is it possible to get out of the car window because of an impact when, your seat belt was fastened ?

Or would the impact damage the lock and make it impossible to open the belt button and hold you in the palce ? "

Mother asked raising her eyebrows.

Well, it does make sense. The truck crashed from behind, where I was sitting. It should have been ME to get crushed on spot instead of getting thrown out in the name of crash impact !

When I didn't said anything mother continued.

" She put her magic in you and helped you get out before the car blasted. She knew Ethan was there and he will save you and that's what happened !

Ethan and Kevin took long than she intended to meet you again and get close. You had the magic in you and that's why Ethan's blood didn't worked on you when he first feed you his blood. "

Mother told us what happened.

" But the question remained unanswered mother, Eve ? "

I asked.

" I am so sorry my child, she didn't do it to insult you or anything else. It was her thinking and I have nothing to do with it. "

Mother said turning to Kevin.

Oh god, what now ?

" What are you talking about mother ? "

Kevin asked confused.

" Bella wanted her daughter to marry Ethan and have a family with him and so... Amber didn't conceived when she was with you. "

Mother said squeezing his hands.

" So, it all happened because of the magic ? "

Kevin asked in disbelief.

" Yes, my child. I am sorry. "

Mother said.

" Why are you apologizing ? You haven't done anything. And whatever it is, she is my daughter, understand Ethan ? "

Kevin said seriously to Ethan.

" Ofcourse brother she is your's ! "

Ethan said smiling.

" Evelyn is a borne witch because Bella intended her to be. Bella's magic was in you and Eve absorbed it all and that's why her way of communicating with you all when she was in your womb was magical ! "

Mother said.

Now everything is making sense whatever mother said.

I guess Eve being a witch is her destiny mom chose for her and I can't fight it.

Mother got up from her place and sat beside me.

" Don't worry my child, she is in safe hands. I can understand what are your worries about her future. But I promise nothing wrong will happen with her.

She is my granddaughter and her safety is my responsibility. I won't let her do anything wrong. Maybe your vampire and hybrid partners can't stop her from doing anything stupid but I can ! I am the most powerful witch, you know. "

Mother said caressing my worries away.
