Chapter 49: Knock the door no response
Rose walked into the large, wide room full of people—there were people everywhere.
Her face carried a smile as she held little Tobi beside her. Today was a joyous occasion, a very special day for her best friend, Zara.
Rose felt Tobi poking her arm. Feeling the sensation, she looked down at her son, who was trying to get her attention.
She smiled at him and asked, "What is it, dear son? Are you hungry? We just got here, but don’t worry—I’ve got your milk prepared for you. I also packed your snacks in my bag."
Tobi shook his head, his gestures saying no.
He had only tapped his mummy to make sure she was really his usual mummy and not the different one.
That day at Grandma’s house, he had sensed that his mummy was different—but not in an evil way. She was still kind, but she didn’t like to talk much, and she seemed more powerful than his usual mummy.
He had asked Darius what was going on, but Darius kept quiet and refused to answer him. Darius, who was usually so talkative, had suddenly gone silent when Tobi asked why his mummy felt different. All he said was:
"I don’t know."
But the truth was, Darius was upset. The mummy Tobi was sensing was actually his wolf mummy—the side of her that was more instinctual, more powerful.
Darius didn’t like it because when that mummy was around, he couldn’t be as mischievous as he wanted to be. And that made him sad. He wanted to be as mischievous as possible.
