Queen

When I turn 16, my parents have to move to other country because of job. I want to follow them, but they insist of staying at our rented home to finish my study at Magic High School.

“Mother, I want to go with you”, I hug her hand, tighten, tears filled my vision. Faith and Jane are helping father with the luggage.

“I know, honey. I want to stay with you until you’re graduation but the upper one has called us to move the other location”, she strokes my wavy short jet black hair.

“Promise me you will stay away from any danger”, kissed my hair and chin my face up, looking at her with tears rolling down my cheeks, sobbing, and she gently wipe my tears and kissed my cheek.

“I promise! Promise me, you’ll be back and stay healthy and please be safe”

She put her amulet around my neck.

“This will protect you from any danger and I’ll make sure to grant that promise”, we make a pinky swear.

“Willow, came here!” father called me inside our house.

“Yes, father”

“Aunty, please make sure be safe for Willow sake”, Faith said and give a bouquet of white heather.

“Thank you, that’s lovely, I hope so honey, you sure know what I really wish, Faith”, Mrs. Henry take the flowers. Faith gave a sincere grin as a replied.

“Well, this on my house, Mrs. Henry, nothing much but hope you like it” Jane give a cake box, outside the box was the logo/symbols of Jane’s family authorized.

Mrs. Henry opens the box to see, what is it filled and was surprise with the delicate handwriting wrote ‘Have a nice trip and we’ll take care of her’.

“Thank you, that so much! I really am happy. Please do watch over her. She’s like the White Lily of The Valley. I will leave you guys to take charge of her”, she smile and hug both of Willow’s friends.

“We’ll”, they almost sync the rhythm when the say that.

“Oh! Before that! You have to put a certain spell on her. You do know that once before”, she left them and walk in the carriage with her husband.

I wave at the carriage until their shadows disappear.

“Come on, Willow, let’s get in. it’s getting darker here”, Faith pulled me in her embrace and make me move with her.

“Okay”, I replied and walk inside the house.
