I did not exactly know why I had let her convince me, why I had allowed Alex to bring me to DEO, since I obviously did not want to be here, not where I could find myself more easily with my cousin, I really wanted to go home .

I leaned my head against the wall without wanting to turn it around, figuring out the perfect plan to get out of there when I had the chance, of course I would. However, I did not let much time pass and I decided to get up and leave here, especially considering that Alex was not watching me.

I went down the street with the intention of going home, locking myself in my room and not leaving until the next day, but everything seemed to be plans, because nobody, absolutely nobody, could have predicted everything that was going to happen. The sound behind me made me turn, completely confused when I saw that drone, following me, which seemed to shoot by itself and I was sure that it was going to kill me. I tried to move, but falsely, because every step I took that device came behind me, I ducked my head and began to despair, wishing it would fire. However, I saw him, he stood in front of me, covering me with his cape the moment it fired and then ended up destroying it.

"Are you okay?" He asked, watching me, to which I nodded. "Go home, this can be dangerous," he said before leaving, flying, just as he had arrived.

I watched as he left without being very sure what had just happened, knowing that this had not been the best presentation between us, that it had not been the best situation, much less if it was taken into account that I was running away from him.

I closed my eyes as I felt tears begin to take over, trying to think clearly, about what I should do, although one idea seemed to make it clear, I was not going to go home, because it was the first place they were going to start looking for me, and, at this moment, all I wanted was to be alone.

"Where did you save her?" was the next question asked by Kara, who tried by all means to contact her sister

Everyone was confused, that was obvious, especially her, because it was supposed to be watched and Kaelah seemed to have found a way out of there without any problem about it.

Although the fact that had managed to alarm them was the fact that Clark had had to save her, since knowing her, right now, she would be locked up somewhere without wanting to talk to anyone, but they had to find her, so they decided to split the job. The bad news came at the time it was confirmed that she was not in Kara's apartment.

She sighed trying to think where she could be found, where she had more places to hide, remembering that she had given her the keys to her own apartment just a day ago, because she could go there and find herself closer to the DEO's new location. However, she did not communicate where she was going, since she preferred to check it until giving them false hopes.

She opened the door of the apartment, blinking several times to get accustomed to the darkness invading the room, finding a small bundle crumpled in the couch with her head on her knees.

"Kaelah ..." she called her in a whisper, afraid to frighten her.

The young girl looked at her for a couple of seconds before wiping the tears from her cheeks, ducking her head again without wanting to look at her again.

She sat down beside her, watching her, trying to find something that could comfort her, to calm her down.

"He ... saved me," she sobbed. "And I can not even know him ... and ... and Kara seems so happy with all of this," she continued, speaking between tears.

She hugged her, trying to calm her down, calm her enough to talk to her, for in the state of nervousness she was obviously not going to want to listen to her.

"Kaelah, don't you think it might be the best if you know him?" She asked, making her shake her head. "The moment you do it, you will not have to think about it," she tried to convince her, "It's the best for you, for him, even for Kara, she's in the middle of all this," she continued to notice the change in the gesture of her face.

She was annoyed because of any of her statements and she would bet whatever it was that was because of Kara, she would not hesitate to ensure that something bothered her about it, but she was afraid to ask.

"She's in the middle, but she seems to have positioned herself, right?" She whispered, looking at her. "She hasn't talked to me about this, at least not seriously," she complained, pausing. "When I woke up this morning, she wasn't at home even she hadn't bothered to tell me where she was going like she always did, "she closed her eyes.

She looked at her, not knowing what to say, confused, looking for words to try to get the idea out of her head.

"Kaelah, you may be overreacting, don't you think?" She looked at her and shrugged. "I can't decide for you, they're both worried." She tried to persuade her again.

Kaelah looked away thoughtfully as if she were really thinking what to do, nodding slightly a few seconds later.

She could not believe it, she had convinced her, it seemed like a lie, too much, however, she was agreeing.

I stood behind Alex as we approached them, feeling as my nervousness increased with every step I took, wanting to flee, to disappear, but I could not, I had promised.

"Hey, guys," she called, getting the two of them turned to us. "I bring a surprise." She smiled before grabbing my arm and moving me forward, since it was obvious that I was not going to do it.

"Kaelah" whispered my sister pouncing to embrace me. "Are you ok?" she asked receiving a statement from me. "You frightened us" she commented holding me.

When she finally separated me and stood behind me to allow me to stand in front of him, I ducked my head, sighing, reassuring myself before I dared to look at him.

"Can I?" He asked, trying to hug me.

I nodded, allowing him as I felt the tears coming back to me, sobbing as he held me tighter.

"You were nervous, weren't you?" He asked getting a statement. "You didn't have to be, in any case I, Kaelah," he said, separating me from him to look at me. "Not every day is you meet your oldest cousin, much less the only person with powers of Krypton and heiress of the House of El, and you were nervous? Imagine me" he laughed making me smiled shyly at him.

I watched him still in tears, he was like his father, the one who had trusted me, who had supported me no matter what happened, who had fought for the liberty I so longed for.

I smiled again as I shook my head free of those thoughts.

"Thank you for saving me," I whispered.

"Hey, it's practically my job, besides the family is to trust, to protect each other, Kaelah" he replied back to me.

I sighed to hear him say that, because unfortunately that was not always true, it was not, and no one could dicuss me that.

"Are you okay?" He asked, looking at me. "What do you disagree with?" he asked, making me looked at him surprised. "I know that expression, it's the same as Kara's"

"Trust, being there, that's not always true," I replied, bowing my head. "Sometimes those who should support you don't do it," I said.

"What do you mean?" My sister asked, turning me to her. "Father?"

"My relationship with him was not the most appropriate between a father and a daughter, he dedicated himself to educate me for my obligations and little else, "I explained turning to Kal-el-" For me, my father figure was your father, "I said. "The only ones who trusted me, who support me no matter what, ... "I was silent biting my lower lip" Both were scientists, studied my case, the difference? When I was with my father, everything was ... obligatory? But when I was with Jor-el, it was a game, "I explained, blinking to keep tears from accumulating in my eyes.

"The three-year-old looked down at her father, not understanding what to do exactly, confused, and she was genuinely anxious not to be there.

"Kaelah, please concentrate," he asked, making the girl deny her head still confused.

The little girl grabbed her head as if she was trying, but she did not really know what to do, she did not know, so she just stood there.

"Hey, how's my little niece?" Her uncle smiled entering into the lab, getting the girl to run to greet him. "Hey, sweetie," he greeted her.

"Are we going to play today?" She asked as he set her down again.

His uncle nodded slightly as she grabbed his hand and led him to the table, sitting back in the chair, turning to look at his father for a couple of seconds before ducking her head.

"Kaeks, what are you going to want to play?" Her uncle questioned.

"The riddles," she exclaimed excitedly.

"And what do you say if we tried a little flying first?" He tried to convince her.

"No, I can't do it," she said. "I don't know how."

"Sweetie, you have to trust yourself, you can do it," he encouraged her. "Then we can play the riddles, okay?

The little girl hesitated for a couple of seconds before nodding slightly, with little self-confidence.

However, she stood up, controlling her powers, getting to fly easily, helping them to carry out the study.

They focused on the resistance she had, amazed that she could be holding on so long, a fact that verified that her powers became stronger as the days went by.

"Kaelah, you can stop now," her father said making her nod and fell to the ground. "Good job, princess," he complimented her, holding her in his arms.

The girl rested her head on her father's shoulder, exhausted, trying to rest, even if only for a couple of seconds.

"Are you going to want to play, Kaeks?" His uncle asked, noticing how tired he was.

The little one nodded slightly, still with her head resting, but not losing her smile before asking her father to leave her on the floor, running to sit at the table, excited, expectant at the game."

"My father built your pod," Kal-el said, making me astonish.

"How-how do you know that?" I asked.

"The inscription on my pod spoke of both of you, but above all of you," he pointed out. "He explained that you didn't know that you were going to be sent to earth, that he had taken care of that," he explained, watching me.

"Can I see my pod?" I asked Alex, who nodded, guiding me to where it was.

I circled the pod for an inscription, watching carefully, for I was almost sure that there was one, finding it, caressing the relief of letters with my fingers, reading, after a long time, my mother tongue, Kryptonian.

"Scared? I bet you are, but you shouldn't be, you're going to have the life you deserve, Kaeks. Enjoy, but above all, be yourself and remember that it does not matter if you don't have powers, you are special equally.

Love you, your uncle, Jor-el "

I could not help it, the tears took over me the moment I read that, the moment I realized that I was there for him, that he had given me the life that I longed for, that I had wanted so much and that, thanks to him, I was living.

Thanks for reading,
