MAGIC.

It's been a week since miss julliet took me to the pool to have a manicure session, I haven't had that much fun in a long time.

I remember master justice's words to me the other time, they didn't hurt me, instead it made me realize how lonely he looked.

I stand in front of my mirror and think.

I tilt my head, why can't they see it? why can't his siblings see he is heartbroken?

Oh well, it's none of my business, I have to go prepare dinner now before all hell is let loose.

I wonder what I should cook, miss julliet gave me a menu but I feel like doing something different.

Am gonna prepare my famous pot roast, and I can match it with baby potatoes .

I start cooking and after a while when it seems that the food is about to be ready, I start setting the table.

I walk out of the kitchen with the first dish to see miss julliet and Mr Sage going at it.

Oh my.

I think he is trying to swallow her tongue.

I blush, I have never so much as being kissed so this level of making out makes me uncomfortable.

I exit and come back with another dish and they are still at it, Mr sage seems to be whispering something to her and she is smiling dreamily.

I feel a twinge of jealousy, I want that, I want someone to be so in love with me they don't notice when someone enters the room.

Alec and Mr Justin enter and I stand a little ways back in case they need something.

"Gross mom, I can't believe you were sucking face with sage, eww much? I am your child do you want to scar me for life?"

I almost giggle at Alec's words but his voice stops me. Justice's voice.

"My nephew is right sage, just because I give you permission to stay over does not mean I want to see you eat my sister for dinner".

He says this as he enters,  and I nearly swallow my tongue.

He's wearing ripped jeans and a white polo, with bare feet, his hair looks wet.

I love his feet

. Le sigh.

I catch my self when I see what I am doing, no no no, we are not having girly feelings for the bastard, nope, nada, zilch.

I tune in to the conversation to hear Mr sage say..

"You wish you had to give me permission J, we all know I own you".

Justice laughs and am stunned speechless, he laughs?

He has a nice laugh, I sigh out loud.

All eye turn to me and I stand straight.

I can't believe I did that out loud, what is wrong with you magic?!

I back away a little but Mr Justin's voice stops me.

"Hey, little one, come join us"

I shake my head, no.

"It's alright sweets you can join us, justice won't mind".

That was miss julliet, I glance at justice and I see him filling his glasses with water.

I nod, I look around , the only seat available is next to master justice.

Well damn.

I take my seat tensely.

"I can see you prepared something different today"

I nod, waiting for master justice to comment after Mr Justin makes this observation, but he doesn't, I am surprised.

In the last few days he has found all opportunity to criticize me.

Salt was too much, coffee too thick, the sauce too light, even I was breathing too loudly.

He criticizes everything.

I serve my self and I take a bite, as I do I see that it really tastes good.

Alec is stuffing himself and he has oil on his chin.

I take some serviette and wipe his face, he smiles with his mouth full and I grin.

I turn back to my food .

"Am gonna be traveling the day after tomorrow magic"

I raise my head at miss julliet words and i tilt it in question, she countinues.

"Sage's parents will be coming from the Caymans in 5 days, he wants me to meet them"

I can see she is nervous about that so I smile.

"You will do fine, they will love you".

I say this and she smile.

"Well I will be with Alec, so you don't have to worry"

I say this but she shakes her head..

"A will be coming with me, I want them to meet him too."

Mr sage takes her hand and entwines it with his, I nod, it only makes sense.

"It's the weekend, I won't be at home too,"

Mr Justin says,

That's right, mr Justin never stays at home on the weekends.

Wait..

Does that mean I will be alone with master justice?

Am dead.

My life is dead ass over.

"I will be traveling too, no need to look so lost girl".

Master justice says and I relax, I instantly go tense again when I finally realize what will happen.

I will be left alone.

I hate been alone.

"Will you be okay alone magic?"

I nod and smile thinly, "I will be fine" I say.

I won't be fine.

I clench my fingers when I feel a tug of pain at my abdomen.

Just great, I have to go and have cramps when everyone won't be at home.

That would make it more lonely.

My life.

*******************

Justice.

I shake my head as I lie on my bed, she is such a bad liar, magic.

I could see clearly that she is not ok being left alone.

I shake my head again as I drift off.

*****************

Justice.

I make my way to the airport gate, I am so damn late, my flight is leaving soon.

I won't be late if the girl called magic had remembered to iron my gray sleeve. Dunce.

I make my way to the gate but remember I left my briefcase, I turn, oh shit.

I hate rushing for anything.

My PA decided to fall sick this morning, I won't fault her, she is pregnant.

I had to do everything by my self.

Sage came to pick julliet up this morning, she would have helped.

An impromptu flight to Cameron is not how I planned this trip.

I grab my briefcase and close the door, I turn looking at my wristwatch, 15 minutes more, mercy.

I bump into someone and I lift my head.

Oh eff no.

"Well hello there darlin'"

She purrs and I feel myself getting sick.

"Selene".

"Well hello sugar, fancy meeting you here"

"Am in a hurry Selene, I don't have time for this"

She pouts and frowns, once upon a time that would have made me move the Earth to please her but now it just makes me sick.

I feel bile rise to my chest and I clutch my briefcase, she is touching my chest,.my elbow, I don't like that, I step away, she steps forward.

"Didn't you miss me?".

"I have yo go selene"

I walk past her and she calls after me.

"Call me sometime so that we can catch up"

That wasn't going to happen, the bitch.

I feel my temperature get high and I think, oh hell.

I don't need this today, this meeting is important.

I wish I can tell that to my rapidly growing pulse.

Just like Selene, always there to turn my life upside down.
