"Don't even get me started, Ronny!" my mum screamed.
It was my sixth birthday. It was just my mum, dad and I. I started crying because I felt the room's atmosphere change rapidly. Everyone was happy before. Then, my dad commented on something that was related to money. And immediately, I felt the air in the room slowly sour. My mum started bombarding my dad with rash comments, while my dad tried to calm me down while shouting at her. And that did not help me stop crying.
"Get away from her, you asshole!" my mum shouted, shoving my dad away from me as I started wailing.
What was that? My mum was suddenly wrapped in a bronze coloured mist. It was red before, while she was screaming at my dad. Now, it was golden but mixed with a little bit of brown, making it look bronze. And my dad, he was outlined in a mist with a bit of red and green...
And what the hell was that! I actually, literally, definitely COULD feel the atmosphere turning sour. As if milk gone bad...I cried even harder, these were all too much for my six-year-old brain to wrap around. However, my parents divorced when I was seven, so I guess I should have kept quiet when my parents were quarreling…
Then, at twelve, I came across this word 'aura' in a few books and I thought they were a little like what I'd experienced when I was six. I questioned my mum, and she told me it was like a coloured light outlining a person's body. I knew then that what I'd seen on my sixth birthday were auras. They were the auras of my parents.
Ever since then, I've noticed people's auras. My mum's was yellow, my dad's light green. I've tried noting mine, but I couldn't. I looked into the mirror and concentrated as hard as I could, but I could only see fainted white outlining my body. So I guess my colour was white.
Finally, at fourteen, I read this on the Internet; according to some myths, there were people who could see auras and feel the change in atmosphere. There were other people who could do other things, but I didn't take note. They definitely were not just myths. If I could feel the change in atmosphere and see auras, then obviously it's true. It made me wonder what other myths were true.
