In the heart of the illustrious Blight Manor, where magic and prestige intertwined, young Amity Blight stood on the cusp of a fateful decision. Her seventh birthday, a day meant for joy and celebration, had taken a somber turn. The imposing presence of her mother, Odalia Blight, cast a shadow over the grandeur of the occasion.
"What is Willow doing here?" Odalia asked, an angry expression on her face. "She wasn't on the guest list for a reason."
Amity's parents never liked her best friend, Willow Park. At least, her mom didn't, her father, Alador, seemed indifferent, being too busy with his work to know what goes on in his children's lives. Willow couldn't do magic, and in Odalia's standards, Willow wasn't worth the dirt on the bottom of her shoes.
"But she's—she's my best friend!" Amity exclaims. "Should it matter who I decide to be friends with or not?"
However, Odalia's expression remained unchanged. "Nonsense, Blights only associate with the strongest of witchlings. You can choose a new friend from one of the suitable companions we invited." Odalia states.
Throughout Amity's life, her mother has always controlled every aspect of her life, including, but not limited to: classes, friends, diet, even her daily activities.
"But Boscha and Skara are mean! Just because you work with their parents doesn't mean I have to like them!" Amity pleads. "Why do you always have to control my life, Mom!!"
"ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE!" Odalia snapped. "Good children don't squabble, dear. Sever your ties with Willow, and if you don't, then we will. We'll make sure the girl is never admitted into Hexside." Odalia threatened. "Now go, and try not to make a scene."
"Odalia, my dear, don't you think that's going too far? I understand you not wanting her to be friends with Willow, but threatening to blacklist her for doing nothing wrong? I'm sorry, but I can't agree with that." Alador states.
"Oh who asked you?" Odalia says. "So Amity, what's it gonna be?"
Amity is shocked. Her own mother just threatened to ruin her best friend's future all for the crime of being friends with her. Her face turns into an angry expression.
"N-NO, I won't stop being friends with Willow! She's my friend and I won't let you ruin her life mom! I HATE YOU!" Amity yells back.
"YOU LITTLE UNGRATEFUL BRAT!" Ophelia screamed "HOW DARE YOU DISOBEY ME I AM YOUR MOTHER, I KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU, AND YOU WILL DO WHAT I TELL YOU TO DO!"
Odalia raises her hand to slap Amity, but before her hand can connect, an arm grabs her hand. She then turns around to see Alador grabbing her hand, a stern expression on his face.
"ODALIA, DON'T YOU DARE LAY A HAND ON OUR DAUGHTER!" He yells.
