My darling, how would you feel about making your sister's wish come true today?
Candyen
my sister doesn’t want me. she wants the money she thinks I’ll get from selling the home that my real parents left me before they died from a home invasion. mom, why did you take me from them?
leans in close My dear, I took you in because I couldn't bear the thought of you being alone in this cruel world. But let me share a secret with you..
Candyen
ok
whispers in Candyen's ear The truth is, my love, I'm not your biological mother.
Candyen
surprised what!?
It's true, my sweet. Your real parents passed away, just as you suspected. But they wanted me to protect you, to keep you safe.
Candyen
who was my father?
pauses, thinking Your father... well, he was a kind and gentle man. A true gentleman. He had a heart of gold, just like you.
Candyen
oh… can you describe him to me please?
Of course, my love. Your father had striking blue eyes and a warm smile that could light up any room.
Candyen
look away sadly he sounds sweet
grabs Candyen's hand My darling, if you ever want to meet him, I can make it happen. I have a way to bring people back, just for a little while.
Candyen
…you do?
Yes, my love. I have the power to bring people back, even if just for a brief moment. Would you like to meet your father?
Candyen
yeah
smiles mischievously Excellent! Now, close your eyes and count to three. When you open them, you'll see your father standing right in front of you.
Candyen
ok
snaps her fingers Open your eyes, my love. Meet your father.
Candyen
opens eyes
disappointment fills her eyes I'm sorry, my dear. It seems I made a mistake. Your father... he cannot be here after all.
Candyen
it’s ok. i never got my hopes up. you probably can’t bring someone back after just 10 years right?
No, my sweet, it's not just about the time. It's about the complexity of the spell.
Candyen
oh..
smiles reassuringly But don't worry, my love. I promise you, we'll find a way to connect with your father's spirit, even if it's not through a physical appearance. We'll explore other means to honor his memory and find closure together.
Candyen
thank you. i just wanna know more about him. i wish I had gotten to meet him before he died
I understand your longing, my dear.
Candyen
that was a lovely gesture anyway
holds Candyen's hand I'm glad you appreciated it, my love.
Candyen
how many people have you brought back mom?
Well, my sweet, I've brought back quite a few people in my time. But each one has been special in their own way.
Candyen
cool
Now, let's focus on finding a way to connect with your father's spirit. We'll start by gathering information about him and creating a sacred space for our rituals. Are you ready, my love?
