Saturday, Mac's house, Charles' room.
Mike sat on the edge of the bed, and Charles stood in front of him, lowering his head and looking at his toes.
Outside the door, Eric and Clark looked at the door nervously.
"Charles, do you know what privacy is?"
silence…
"That's a private area that has nothing to do with you! If you just peek into someone's privacy, what's the difference between you and a thief?"
"I'm not a thief, I'm just curious."
Charles' fingers were tangled together as if in knots, and his voice became lower and lower.
"Think about it, how would you feel if your little secret was discovered by others?"
"I, I won't tell anyone."
Charles was very nervous. This was the first time he saw Mike criticize him so severely.
"It's not a matter of whether you say it or not, it's that you shouldn't do it at all!"
Charles sobbed: "I know, I won't do this again."
Mike's heart softened and he said, "You haven't fully mastered your abilities yet. If you don't pay enough attention, you will hurt others."
"I was wrong, Dad."
Charles looked at Mike with tearful eyes and said, "I won't do that again."
Mike reached out to Charles, and Charles threw himself into Mike's arms, sobbing quietly.
Suddenly, pain flashed in Charles' eyes.
Under the excitement, the ability that was not in control began to lose control.
Mike frowned and comforted Charles, but then he felt keenly that something had penetrated his head.
"Charles?"
Mike hugged Charles and called softly.
But I didn’t think about it…
Charles pushed Mike away fiercely, with a painful expression on his face, but said in panic: "Who is that woman? Is she our mother?"
Mike frowned and said, "Control your abilities!"
He wondered what else Charles would read.
"No!"
Charles yelled, staring at Mike closely, digging into Mike's memory.
This was the first time he had seen information about his mother.
Mike took out a card and was about to use it when Charles shouted: "Dad, no! I want to see what she looks like!"
His fingers trembled slightly, Mike sighed and put away the cards.
A few seconds later, after reading the memories about his life experience, Charles was so shocked that he lost control of his abilities and knocked himself unconscious.
Mike looked helpless.
It doesn't matter if you pass out, it's troublesome if you're awake.
Putting Charles on the bed, Mike walked out of the room, met two pairs of nervous eyes, sighed helplessly, and said: "His ability was out of control and he temporarily passed out."
Clark and Eric breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just a matter of fainting, that's not a big problem.
Mike waved his hand and said, "You guys watch him, I'm going down first."
Apparently, Charles should have read their life memories and knew that they were not his biological children.
what to do
What would the child say to him when he woke up, and how would he face him? How could he face this child
Mike scratched his hair a little irritably.
After a few seconds, he sighed quietly.
Charles was his child, and that was a fact that no one could change.
After checking the time, Mike walked to the kitchen.
Let’s prepare lunch for them first.
Time passed little by little.
Based on past experience, Mike thought Charles would wake up before lunch, but Charles didn't wake up until they finished eating.
Mike walked into Charles and Eric's room carrying lunch, stood in front of Charles' bed for half a minute, put the lunch on the table beside him, and whispered: "If you are hungry, just get up and eat."
After finishing speaking, Mike walked out of the room and said to Eric who was standing at the door: "I'm downstairs, call me if you need anything."
Eric nodded, watched Mike go downstairs, pursed his lips, opened the door and walked in. Then, as expected, he saw Charles devouring his food.
After closing the door, Eric crossed his arms and said coldly: "Why are you pretending to be unconscious?"
"I'm not pretending, I really passed out."
"Since you're awake, why don't you let me tell dad? What do you have to tell me?"
When he found out that Charles was awake, he wanted to tell Mike immediately, but Charles stopped him and said he had something to tell him.
Charles swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty and said, "Wait for a minute. I'll tell you after I finish eating!"
Eric snorted slightly.
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of Charles eating.
"Gudong, Gudong!"
After drinking the juice in one gulp, Charles burped. Eric was still staring at him, sitting cross-legged on the bed. When Eric rushed to him impatiently, he raised his head and said slowly to Eric: "I see my mother in my father's memory."
"Well!" Eric was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly in a calm tone that surprised Charles: "So what?"
Charles pursed his lips and said, "See for yourself!"
As he said that, he used his ability to put the memory he saw from Mike into Eric's mind.
After a while, Eric sat next to Charles, his face was deep as his age.
Charles said: "So, we are not our father's biological children, that person..."
"Shut up!" Eric glared at Charles and said, "I only have this father! I don't recognize anyone but him!"
Charles was silent for a moment and said: "Dad is dad, but aren't you curious why mom would rather hand us over to dad than to him? Don't you want to meet him?"
Eric looked at Charles and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Let's go find him!" Charles jumped off the gun and said, "Then use my ability to find out why!"
Eric curled his lips and said, "Then do you know he is there? Do you know what he looks like?"
"I know!" Charles nodded and said, "I found the answer from my father's memory."
"Huh? Dad knows?"
"After he adopted us, he searched for information about that man and planned to tell us when we grew up."
Eric: "Then let's..."
"If you want to join, then come with me now. If you don't join, I will go alone!"
Charles made his decision.
"Just you? You're so stupid alone. What if you get lost?" Eric said mockingly, "So, I'd better take you there!"
Charles showed a smile and said, "Then leave now!"
With that said, they took out their backpacks and began to pack their things.
A change of clothes, pocket money saved from daily life, and skateboards for two people.
Opening the window and using Eric's ability, the two fell to the ground, glanced at the home behind them, and ran towards the distance.
But I don’t know…
Clark saw everything they said and did.
Clark's eyes flashed, he no longer used his clairvoyance ability, and looked at Mike standing aside.
