She sits alone, in his room. His OLD room.

Where is he? She doesn’t know.

He had left them. Left her.

Even left his family

He’s gone. Disappeared.

…..Downside.

-----

She remembers the first time he came here….came to them. The Institute.

He was so lively. So full of life.

But it has all changed now.

….the time.

….their situation

…..HIS mutation

HIM

------

They had promised to take care of him. SHE had promised to take care of him.

“Come with us,” they had said. “We can help you.”

‘Some help we were,’ she laments silently. ‘Some help *I* was.’

-----

She knows no one blames her, not even his parents. His family. HER family.

They don’t even blame the people who caused this to happen. People who unbeknownst to them are planning to do the same to other mutants.

People who fear them. HATE them.

“Ignorant fools,” she barely contains her anger, the thunder and lightening outdoors giving her away.

-----

Is only she could do it again. What would she do?

Would she bring him here? Away from his family and friends. Into danger.

Would she be less *urging*, less strict with him? Letting more of his ‘teenage-lashing out’ behavior pass.

‘What would you do?’ she asks herself. ‘WHAT?’

-----

Would….Should…Could….

All possibilities…all opportunities….all lost.

All gone.

-----

The only thing she has left, apart from her regrets is hope.

HOPE

Hope that wherever he is, he is well.

Hope that he new friends…his new family is taking good care of him.

Hope that he will one day come back to them. To her. To her Aunty *O*.

-----

“I am sorry Evan,” she lowers her head, motherly caress of his framed picture. “Sorry that I failed you.”

“Help him Goddess, I pray to you. Save him from all the dangers coming him way.”

“That is all I ask of you. That…and…”

“….to lead him back to us.”

“Bring him back home.”
