“So, Mom, what spells are you the best at? I’ve been reading
through one of your journals and it mentioned dragons which is FREAKING
AWESOME! But, what’s your favorite spell?” Alyssa asked, hopping onto the couch
beside Victoria.
“Hey, I remember this book. I lost it somewhere in the
attic. I guess Derrick found it in the move,” Victoria said, turning the blue
notebook over in her hand as she thought for a moment. “Hmm, favorite spell…oh,
easy, it was a reflection spell ‘reflexio revelare.’ When your dad and I were
dating, he’d mentioned he hadn’t seen himself in centuries. So, one night while
standing in front of a mirror, I cast that spell and for a minute he got to see
his reflection again.”
“Wow! That’s so cool and very sweet. I’ll bet it made him
smile,” Alyssa said, looking over at her father.
“It did,” the Derricks replied simultaneously before sharing a laugh.
