I saw Ted practicing his power with Dylan. He was doing a really good job, with Dylan helping him. "Yes, Ted. Keep focusing, now, revile it." I heard Michael say softly to him. Ted used his power and tried to look carefully. Ted lifted up Bughuul and as a matter of fact, Bughuul was shocked. He wasn't scared, he was used to it because, so he can practice his telekinesis. "Now, slowly, control it, don't conceal it." Michael adds. Ted noticed that he was picking up this tall person which was Bughuul. He slowly let his feet touch the ground, and by all means, Bughuul didn't say anything neither walked up to him.
Bughuul stood very still, as Ted practiced his power. "Good boy," Carlos says. When he was all done, I hugged Ted. We kissed for a moment and we soon blush. Later, I gazed at Jorge, whose practicing his power. Shelby mentors him. "Just make sure, you focus on the person you are targeting." She exclaims to him, he looked at Peter waiting for Aaliyah to shock him with het power. "Ready?" She asks. Peter, slowly grabbed her hand and Aaliyah grabbed it forcefully, which caused her hand to shock electricity. Jorge uses his power to control Peter's whining. He's pretty good and smart too.
After, we went inside to relax, Alice rubs her eyes and ran to Milo. "Hey, where were you?" Milo asked, "I was sleeping Daddy." She replies. "Oh, no wonder I haven't seen you outside." He chuckles.

I was talking to Shelby and Jorge, about my shield. "So, I was born with that power?" Jorge licked his lip and gazed at Shelby, then, me. "Yeah, it's because that since you are the only child in your family, you were always alert and protective with your parents when you were little." Shelby adds, "You still are it's just that since you are with Milo and have Alice, it takes some time for a teen mother to understand." I smiled at them, thanking them for the info.
I went to look for Milo, but, I saw Alice standing. "Hi, love. How was your nap?" I asked her like if she were 2 years old. "Good, I was tired." She said, "I know, it's okay." I respond. She saw my eyes, getting brighter. "Mommy? You have very nice eyes." She says, "Thank you, love." I remarked. Alice smiled then, walked away. I gazed at her walking away.
*Time skip to basement*
I walked down to see that Milo was there. It was only Milo. He set up the little video camera to get ready for tonight. "Hey, Milo? Can we talk for a minute?" I asked, "Sure." He said. He stopped touching it for a moment, then, stood on his feet, stepping close to me holding my hands. "What's wrong?" He remarks. "I'm scared." I told him. "About what?" He asks softly. "It's about the war, I'm just scared what will happen to Alice. I'm afraid something is going to happen." I had stress for a second but, Milo calms me down. He hugs me, "Gloria, I know this scares you, this scares me too. I know that you know that we don't want to see her hurt. I'm doing what's best for you girls' because, you guys are very special to me. I love you both." I stopped crying, "I love you too."
I went upstairs and put Alice to bed. I was reading her a bedtime story and once I ended, she sounded asleep. I shut off her lamp and before I kissed her, "Mom?" I paused and answered my child, "Yeah?" She starts to think. She goes, "Did Bianca and Danny leave us because, we are going to die?" She arise a little. "No, they didn't. They just left because, to be safe. And Daddy and I aren't letting anything the worse happen to you. We are trying our best to be good parents to you and protect you. Understand?" She nods her head, going back to sleep. I kissed her forehead, then, closed her door silently.
