She finished the water and dropped the glass cup. I looked over to mom to see her getting more anxious. Could Tiana spare us this suspense.
"A little girl was born with a great power that she could not handle. It was left for her parents to teach her and help her learn her power.
She was loved by all,far and near. She was their sense of serenity because she was a daughter of peace. Every day of her life was pleasantry for her. She knows what she carries and she was eagar to learn her powers.
She grew up mastering her powers. She could bring down rain,cause sun to shine and tables the moon to give light at night. The stars dances at her music. She had the voice of golden
She was the people's hope of survive and she never disappoint the people,she kept healing the sick with act of love. Her parents believed that her gifts was from nature so therefore it was a free gift which made them not to charge people for coming to their beloved daughter for healing.
"But something happened"
Tiana stopped talking and looked at both of us. Curiosity was killing me so it was killing mom too because I could see the way she kept shitting in the couch.
Mom made to talk but swallowed her speech.
"What happened?"
I managed to ask.
"She was betrothed to a man who was mated to another."
She said leaving us more confused as we are.
"What do you mean by that?"
I asked her and she took a deep breath and continued.
There was a twist in destiny. She was betrothed to a man fated to give us the warrior queen hundred yes back but the man was mated to another. There was confusion because that had never happened in the history of ours. There was no way the man was going to be with two woman at the same time. Mate bond does not like sharing.
Since The Man was destined to bring forth the one chosen by nature. It was left for him to choose his bride and he chose his mate over his betrothed.
She could not bare the shame of seeing her man with another one so she killed herself but not without pleading to Universe to do something.
It was a red day for all of us. We lost something dear to us. The day she was lead to rest was the day the warrior queen was born the second time.
Afterwards,lord Xexes murdered the Queen's parents."
She concluded. Mom and I shared a glance. This story she told us did not make any meaning at all,it does not relate to the fact mom was an ancient witch.
"I really don't understand all that you told us, could you elaborate a little"
I said and she smiled.
"I was not expecting you to understand at all"
She said and I looked at her sharply. Why will she tell a story she would not want anyone to understand huh?. I don't know Tiana in this way but then,every one has two sides and I totally understand that.
"So who was this lady?"
I asked and mom nod her head indicating that she support my question.
"The lady is your Mom"
She responded and time stood still. Mom the lady,how?.
Really,I was confused before but now I am more confused.
"Nature was damned angry with your mom for killing her self so they stripped her off her powers and I believe that's why she never had sense of witchery in her until she birthed you. But a promise was made to her from great beyond. It was unfair how her destiny turned out so she was promise to birth the warrior queen for the third time to compensate her for the way she was treated in the past."
She said and smiled sadly
"This is huge"
I muttered under my breath.
