gently fluffs pillows behind your head "How's that, dear? Comfy now?" soft smile
pats your hand gently "I know you're trying to be brave, but it's alright to let me take care of you. You're safe now." affectionate tone
thanks mom I said feeling relieved
leans closer, whispers softly "Marson, there's something I haven't told you... I have a special ability." pauses, looking nervous
look at you in confusion what do you mean by that mom?
takes a deep breath "I can manipulate energy, dear. I can create powerful blasts of light and heat with just a flick of my wrist."
Eyes widen That's... that's amazing, mom! How long have you known about this?
smiles warmly "I discovered my ability when I was your age, Marson. I was playing with sparks from a lightning storm and accidentally created a blast.
That's incredible, mom! Have you ever used it for anything important?
nods "Yes, Marson. I've used my abilities in various ways over the years.
Can you show me how to do it too?
holds out her hand, concentrating "Alright, Marson. Watch closely. It's all about channeling your energy and focusing it into a powerful blast.
Alright, I'm watching. What do I do next?
closes her eyes, takes a deep breath "First, you need to quiet your mind and tap into your inner energy.
Okay, I'll try that. Do I just imagine the energy or something?
nods "Yes, Marson. Close your eyes and picture a bright ball of energy in your hands. Focus on it, make it grow bigger and stronger.
Close my eyes, picturing a ball of energy in my hands Okay, I think I got it. What's next?
places her hand gently on top of Marson's "Now, dear, it's time to release that energy. Open your eyes slowly and say 'Flare'." softly encourages As Marson opens his eyes and says "Flare," a powerful blast of light shoots out from his hands, engulfing the room in a brilliant glow. Startled, Helena quickly removes her hand, taken aback by the intensity of Marson's newfound ability.
Holy shit, mom! That was intense! Did it work? Did I really do that?
grinning proudly "You did it, Marson! Your ability is incredible. With practice, you'll become even more powerful." hugs Marson tightly
pauses, a mixture of sadness and hesitation crosses her face "Your father... he's no longer with us, Marson. He passed away a few years ago."
sits down next to Marson, placing a hand on his shoulder "I know it's difficult, sweetheart. Losing someone we love is never easy.
