Chapter 37
Kai went inside feeling shy. Was it the house he was meant to grow in before
Joshua snatched him away ? He was here for the first time but he felt like his
heart was in peace.
?: You're here.
He turned toward the voice. A tall man was staring at him.
Kai : he cleared his throat You must be Patrick.
Patrick : Yes.
They stood in front of each other not sure what to do next.
Suzanne : Oh for God's sake, just hug !
They chuckled and Patrick opened his arms. Kai embraced him. Bonnie noticed
that Kai had his mother's eyes but the height, the jawline and the nose of his
father. She smiled. She was happy he found his family and she felt her heart
beating with love. Kai and his father pulled apart.
Suzanne : I prepared a few things to eat.
They followed her in the living room where comfortable sofas and food were
waiting for them. They sat down.
Suzanne : Please eat.
Bonnie didn't think twice. She was starving ! She helped herself.
Patrick : I'm sure you have a lot of questions.
Kai : Yes, but I don't know where to start.
Suzanne : she grabbed his hand Be sure we love you and we were so destroyed when we lost you.
She needed to touch him to make sure he was real, that she wasn't dreaming like
she did so many times.
Kai : Did you try to find me ?
Suzanne : Of course ! But Joshua was so powerful. I tried a couple times, failed, almost died once.
Her son stiffened feeling sad and mad.
Patrick : I also tried in my own ways but it didn't work either.
Kai : He will pay, I swear he will.
Suzanne : I'm not sure...
Kai : Do I have siblings ?
The questions made his parents uncomfortable. They stayed silent for a few
moments. All you could hear was Bonnie eating.
Suzanne : No, you don't. After we realized we couldn't get you back, I fell into a depression. A few months later, we split.
Kai : So, you're not together ?
Patrick : We are. We found our way back to each other eventually. But we never tried having another child.
It was a lot to swallow for Kai. Joshua destroyed their lives and yet he could
still see hope in their eyes. They were strong. Suzanne began to stare at the
young witch.
Bonnie : she blushed Sorry, I just can't stop eating.
Suzanne : You are pregnant !
Bonnie : Yes.
Kai squeezed her knee in a protective gesture.
Patrick : Wow congrats !
Suzanne : Can I ?
Bonnie : Yes.
The woman placed her hand on Bonnie's belly and smiled. Bonnie could feel a
good energy coming from the hand.
Suzanne : It's a girl.
Bonnie : Her name is Anna.
Suzanne : Oh my, Patrick. We finally found our son and now we're also going to be grandparents.
They shared a loving glance.
Kai : I really hate to burst that bubble but...
Suzanne : she withdrew her hand Joshua.
Bonnie : He wants to steal our baby just like he took Kai away.
Another heavy silence fell in the room.
Kai : Have you heard about the prophecy of a child made from two witch bloodlines ?
Suzanne : Yes, of course. Ohhhh...
Patrick : I'm a bit lost.
They filled him in. Bonnie and Kai stayed over an hour discussing about what
to do and they invited his parents to visit Ruth soon. Kai had not only win his
parents back, he also had new allies.
