Harassing her

I was so lost in my overprotectiveness for my daughter that, I didn't care about how and what she felt about her being powerful and me not caring about it even a bit.

It isn't like I am not proud of it, it's just that I don't want any trouble for her and want her to spend a normal and happy life. I don't want adventurous life for her.

But I guess I behaved selfishly and didn't care about what she felt about it. Ethan, Kevin and mother have tried hard to make me understand that, she is way too powerful than I think and she can protect herself against anything in the world; but my love for her made me blind towards that fact even when I was aware of it !

But today when she cried because she was hurt by my words. Why wouldn't she ? Instead of appreciating and encouraging her I said that, she creates mess every time she performs any magic.

I knew it's gonna hurt her, but I said that in a false hope that my discouraging will make her magic dormant somehow, and she won't be able to perform the ever again. But instead, I hurt to a level of making her cry because of me !

This is the first time I have made her cry and that though broke my heart. I felt very bad for hurting her. I am a bad mother who can't support her child. Who can't be happy at her new achievements !

I ran to her room and I couldn't hear anything; but all the sharp listening vampires caught me midway and interrogated for what did I do to make her cry out like this ?

I was ashamed, but I know they won't let me go unless I open my mouth. I told them what happened, and all of them got mad at me for behaving like that.

But mother saved me from their rage.

" Let it be kids. First, we need to go to Evelyn and make her stop crying. And her intentions weren't wrong. "

Mother said caressing my arm.

We all went and knocked at her door. She didn't open the door and talked clearly trying hard not to cry while responding to us.

I have hurted her so much to make her wanna cry. I hate myself for doing this to her. And what broke my heart is, she forgiving me even when I hurt her this much.

" I am sorry baby. I will never let you down ever. Come on get up, I will cook you custard pie and let's get on with your practice with granny. "

I said kissing her head.

" Thanks Mom, I love you so much. "

She hugged me tight happily.

I pulled her up and we left the room and went to the kitchen. I cooked her favorite dessert and we ate it.

" I loved it Mom. Thanks. I love you so much, you are the best. "

Eve said hugging me.

" Just because she cooked you your favorite dessert, she is your favorite ? What about me ? "

Ethan said grabbing her hand.

" And me ? "

Kevin said grabbing her other hand.

Evelyn looked at both of them, gulped hard and looked at me hoping that, I will save her from their possession. But my kid doesn't know I have already gave up on them.

I couldn't say anything and just shrugged at her.

" Yeah, I love you both. "

She said lightly pulling her hands from their.

" Whom do you love the most among us ? Me or Kevin ? "

Ethan asked crossing his arms.

" Yeah, whom do you love the most ? Me right ? "

Kevin said crossing his arms and raising his eyebrows.

" Yeah. I love both of you. "

She said getting up from her chair.

But both of them put their hands on her shoulder, pushing her back again on the chair.

" Answer us first ! "

Kevin said.

" Yeah, no going anywhere without answering darling ! "

Ethan said.

" The one I love the most is... "

She said looking at both of them.

" Yes ? "

Ethan said.

" Uncle Steve. "

She said quickly and vanished from her chair.

" Hey ! "

Ethan and Kevin said together.

Mother started laughing out loud.

" I didn't expected her to learn that one this fast ! And she not only learned it quickly but she used it at the correct place ! "

Mother said laughing.

" Mother ! "

Kevin said.

" What mother ? Stop harassing her in the name of love. "

Mother said scolding them.

" Understood ? Stop it. "

Ethan said

" BOTH of you ! "

Mother said crossing her arms.

Mother is right. I have no idea when are they gonna stop harassing us in the name of love !
