"Hey, come, see what we can do together"

 

Actually trying to keep the magic alive, here's another excerpt of my forthcoming book. I continue the story, so, here's how our two heroes continue, they continue:

 

“There are people who can see, my dear. You may be good at school, but hurting and mocking your classmates who may be more vulnerable than you means that you are impatient to ‘use power’.”

“We are all like that,” continued Jennifer sharply.

“It may be so, but the looking glass knows the consequences this will have for you as a grown-up. You may do that now, but hurrying, being impatient to act like an adult will get you disappointed later on. I came to you to fix that!”

“Are there only fixes in your mind, Jack? Can’t you act a bit more happily?”

The elf, partly dressed, as the winter had not come yet, with pointy ears, brown hair, brown pants and a backpack over his shoulders and at the same height with Jennifer, began playing music. The flute sounded wonderful to the little child as Jack started smiling, moving right and left and then making steps to dance.

“Hey, come, see what we can do together,” he continued.
