June's mom grilled him with question after question. Who did he work for, where does he live, what his family was like and so on. When she asked what are his plans for the future, Tom merely stated being wizard. June's mom must have thought he was joking because she smiled and asked.

"So how do you become a wizard?"

Tom let out a sigh and informed her.

"You can buy a magic test kit and it comes with a piece of paper that has a diagram on it. Place the crystals round the diagram and some of them inside it. After all that is done, take a needle and prick your fingertips and place your hand inside the diagram. Whatever crystals light up, represents what type of mana you got."

June's mom carefully took in that information and after thinking about it, asked him.

"Which ones lit up?"

Tom laughed a little.

"All of them... and then started to pop like light bulbs getting too much power. Of course I got a new kit and had my friend Jonathan try it. He only got a Divination crystal to light up and he all most passed out from it. Then I tried again and more of them popped this time."

She hummed.

"Ok, can you show us some magic then?"

Tom turned a red form embarrassment.

"I don't know how yet And I can't find any information on how to cast spells. It's like there is some big secret the wizard aren't telling me. I asked one and he just said all in do time."

June's mom just smelled and said.

"At lest you have a goal in life, unlike June's ex-boyfriend."

June sighed and looked down at the floor.

"Mom, please don't bring him up again."

Her mom cackled.

"How about baby pictures?"

June picked up Tom's bag, graded his hand and pulled him out of the living room.

"Come on Tom. You look sleepy. I'll show up stairs."

Not wanting to sit through baby pictures, Tom gladly followed June. Entering the first door on the right at the top of the stairs, Tom found himself in a pink room alone with June. He looked a round for a second before saying.

"Right, that was fun. Let's do again next... never. That looks like a nice spot to sleep."

He unrolled his sleeping bag and got prepared for sleep. June walked over to her bed and sat down. She nodded and agreed.

"Yes, never is a good time. So you're going to just sleep on the ground?"

He looked over at her.

"Is there a bed I can use?"

Turning away from him as she under the covers.

"Umm no, never mind."

Tom didn't realize how it sounded the careless way he asked it and just shrugged his shoulders. Laying down and facing away from the brilliant light, Tom didn't zip up the sleeping bag because he may need to get out of it in a hurry.

"Ok, night June."

She flicked off the light on the night stand.

"Night Tom."

Tom's paranoia

'She's going to stare at you when you're sleeping.'
