"Angie is a jinx! Angie is a jinx!"
"Who said that? Why don't you try saying it again?"
"Ya! It's Lina!"
"Lina is here! Run!"
"If I see you bullying Angie again, I'll teach you a lesson!”
After the girls ran far away, I turned around and saw a little girl with short red hair kneeling on the ground and crying. This girl is called Angie Bratton, my neighbor. She's the same age as me. She was originally a very kind and cute little girl, but for some reason, she was always bullied by others.
"Alright, Angie, it's fine now.”I walked up to Angie and knelt on the ground as well. I held her hand and said,
" Boohoo…Lina…Boohoo…I'm not a jinx…" The girl cried.
It hurts!
I suddenly felt a burning pain in my hands. Burning pain? Looking at the deformed plastic toy house behind me, I finally understood what was going on.
"Ya! Lina, your hand! "Maybe I'm really a jinx…" Just as I was thinking, my hand was let go. Angie stood up and took two steps back. She looked like she wanted to see my hand but was afraid that she would hurt it again. She wanted to turn around and run away but didn't want to lose me, the only friend who protected her. How cute ~~
I immediately stood up and ignored my burnt hands. I grabbed her hands again and smiled gently."Angie, I know you're not a jinx.”
Hearing my words, Angie seemed like she was going to cry again, but in the end, she held it in. She held my hand and ran to her house as fast as she could. She took out the first aid kit and started bandaging me.
"I'm sorry, Lina. I…I really didn't expect to hurt you this time.”Angie whispered as she bandaged my hands.
"Then, Angie, do you know anything about your…power?”I probed.
Although Angie's hand didn't stop, I could feel her body tremble slightly. "I…don't know." she replied in a low voice.
"You actually don't understand your own talent. This can't do, Angie.”I said with a smile.
"You call this talent?" " But I don't see any other use for it other than making a mess of everything.”
"That's because you don't understand it.”I calmly replied," It's like this bottle of red potion. It's originally meant to treat external wounds, but if we use it without reading the instructions, the outcome might very well be a disaster.”
"Lina, do you think…I'm a disaster?”As expected, the fragile Angie had placed her attention on some strange things.
"No, you definitely aren't." I said with certainty," But first, you have to recognize and control your own power.”
At this time, my hand was already bandaged. It was only a small burn on half of my palm.
"But, Lina, I have a question.”Sighing, Angel said seriously,""I have such a strange ability. You just found out today, right? Why are you still so calm?”
"Strange ability?" I smiled." You're Angie Bratton, my friend and neighbor, right?”
"Yes." Although she didn't know why I asked, she still nodded.
"Then I'm still Lena Harvey, your friend and neighbor, right?”I asked.
"Yes." Angie seemed to know what I was going to say as she smiled and nodded.
"Isn't that enough?" I shrugged and left Angie's house.
When I got home, my parents, who had their own jobs outside, had not returned yet. I had to start preparing dinner for tonight, but this did not affect my good mood, because today I finally realized what kind of world I had come to. He hadn't noticed it at first. Although it was New York in the 1990s, it was missing one very important thing, and that was Marvel and DCComics! Adding on the abilities that Angie displayed today, I can almost be sure that this is the world of manga heroes.
However, I don't remember anyone named Angie. Her superpower is related to heat, but so what? I can't possibly remember all the superheroes. Besides, Angie and I are 12 years old now, and we're about to enter junior high school. However, there's no news about superheroes in the newspapers. Perhaps…the era of superheroes hasn't arrived yet?
Just like that, the day passed in my wild imagination. Before I went to bed, I thought about how to let Angel control her power. Well, I didn't know why I was so enthusiastic.
[Time: After school the next afternoon. Location: ] Under the slide in a nearby park. Character: Angie and I, event: discuss how to let Angie control her own power.
"You told me to control my power, but I have no idea.”Angie, who was sitting cross-legged like me, said dejectedly.
"Have you experienced this kind of thing before?”I suddenly asked.
"No, you're the first to know.”Angie replied matter-of-factly.
" That's it," I shrugged." So, we need to experiment and explore.”
As I spoke, I took out a stack of paper cups from my bag and placed them between the two of us. Then, I filled the paper cups with some tap water from the kettle and said to Angie,"According to yesterday's experience, you used your hands to generate the heat, but we don't know how to activate it. So, our practice today is to observe how you use your ability, and it's best to determine the activation conditions.”
"Activation conditions?" Angie was puzzled.
"Yes, the activation condition." I nodded." Although what I'm about to say might make you uncomfortable, I still have to say it. You're like a child holding a pistol. You don't know this pistol, let alone the danger it might cause. Therefore, we have to find the trigger and safety of this pistol first. This way, we can at least prevent you from hurting others unconsciously.”
Hearing my words, Angie lowered her head sadly. However, she quickly raised her head again and nodded firmly at me. She then picked up a paper cup and held it in her palm. She closed her eyes and began to use her ability. At the same time, I gently guided her.
"Abilities related to heat. Generally speaking, these abilities are activated due to emotions. Yesterday, you were very emotional, so you used your ability unconsciously. Although the following method is not recommended for you to use often, it can be used as an experiment. You can imagine what makes you angry. At the same time, think of the water in the cup. Think of the anger in your heart slowly flowing into the water through your arms, and the water will slowly heat up…"
" Gulp…"
"It's a success!" Angie opened her eyes and looked at the steaming water in the cup. She said excitedly.
"Yes, but... look outside the quilt.”I said regretfully.
Angie raised her hand and looked at the outside of the cup. Although it was only the cheapest paper cup, its firmness was still guaranteed. However, it seemed to be on the verge of being scrapped now because there were eight black marks on the outside of the blanket. These were burnt marks.
"Actually, this is already very rare.”I encouraged him with a smile." Remember what you felt just now, but don't use anger to activate your power. Although power is power, negative emotions can also make power negative. Therefore, try to activate it only through power. This is what you need to practice in the future.”
"Yes." Angel nodded and looked at me strangely."I'm curious, Lina. I feel like you're…very familiar with these things.”
"If I say that I am a reincarnated monk, would you believe me?”I happily gave an answer. Although it was made up, it was the most reliable answer. Moreover, I had to confess sooner or later. It was not easy for a knot to appear if I was happy.
"Woah-should I believe it?”" But since I have this strange ability…" Angie said exaggeratedly.
"It's talent. Everyone's ability is meaningful. There's nothing strange about it.”I interrupted Angie and corrected her.
"Alright, talent." Angel nodded and said,""Since I have this kind of talent, then my best friend is a reincarnated monk. This doesn't seem very exaggerated. However, I still want to see the evidence.”
" Monks are a group of explorers. They spend their entire lives, or even more than their entire lives, searching for a way to merge their spirit and body.”I replied," As for the evidence, you won't understand even if I explain it to you. Don't be angry. If anyone could understand this, then we wouldn't be needed. So..."
As I said that, I suddenly somersaulted under the slide. Then, I somersaulted to the park 50 meters away from the slide with my front hands. Then, I somersaulted back with my back hands. Under Angie's surprised gaze, I returned to my original position without blushing or panting.
"That's probably the only thing we can do now. Firstly, this body hasn't grown up yet, and random movements might hurt you. Secondly, some things are too destructive and aren't suitable for acting.”I smiled when I saw Angie's surprised expression.
"Alright, I believe you." Angie rolled her eyes and said,""Then, what should I call you? Grandma Lina?"
"Wretched girl! Stop it!" I replied in a bad mood," I don't know about others, but I can only keep some memory fragments because every reincarnation doesn't necessarily mean that I'll become a human. Therefore, no matter how many lives I or we reincarnate, it's all counted from this life. Therefore, I'm Leena Harvey. At most, I only have the memories of a reincarnated monk.”
"Or my friend and neighbor?" Angie suddenly asked.
"Of course."
