~~~(POV: Amelia Zern)~~~

~~~(Location: Flying, The Kingdom of Zenith)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:39 AM)~~~

Never have I had such fun traveling before! Flying is the best!

"So you travel everywhere like this?"

Radueriel smiles as he flaps his wings again to maintain our high speed. Since he\'s half-angel, flying comes as a natural instinct. It probably didn\'t take him long to get the hang of it when he first got his wings.

"For the most part. Sometimes, I travel by carriage or airship to keep a low profile. There are times I don\'t want to reveal who I am. People can get in the way from time to time."

I\'ll tell you what... If I could fly like this, I\'d be in the sky more than I\'d be on the ground. Being unbound from the world is something many people don\'t know about. Airships are the only way a normal person can experience flying.

And an airship isn\'t comparable to this. Not even close. But it\'s nice to have my son in my arms for a change. Hugging him as he flies isn\'t a good excuse to hug my son, but this is making up for all the hugs I\'ve missed out on.

"Since you know where we\'re going, you\'re the one that has to tell me when to turn or stop. All I know is a general direction."

I almost forgot that we\'re heading to the territory I\'m developing. It was one of the rare moments I was completely distracted from the stress in my life... Goes to show how free you feel when you\'re flying like this.

Unrestricted by any walls or windows. When you reach your hand out, the wind and clouds are at your fingertips. But Radueriel is waiting for me to respond, so I shouldn\'t keep him waiting.

"I\'ll let you know based on my map. Right now, we\'re heading in the right direction, but in about 150 miles, I want you to make about a 14-degree turn to the West. Then everything should be good."

He could turn now if he wanted, but he decides to stay on the current course. On a less technical note, there are some things I\'d like to ask Radueriel. Things that he wouldn\'t tell me on his own.

They\'re going to be uncomfortable for him to hear and more to answer. But I want to hear about the years I\'ve missed with my son. There are so many things he\'s been through... Events that have shaped the man I see now, and I can only hope he tells me.

I don\'t know where to start with the questions I have... Starting out with an easy one should be good... Anything about Earth can\'t be broached yet. Besides, I can\'t reveal the truth.

"Can I ask you a question?"

He doesn\'t respond at first, but he takes a breath and nods his head. He must sense that I\'m going to start digging into his personal life.

"Can you tell me what your childhood was like... Just some of the more prominent memories..."

This isn\'t something that I expect an honest answer from. He\'s been keeping secrets from me for a while now. And I don\'t blame him for that. He\'s a smart kid that knows when to lie and be honest. Well, he\'s not a kid anymore. But he\'ll always be my kid.

He\'s taking his time coming up with an answer. Probably trying to think of a good lie. I can\'t help blaming myself for the way his life turned out. If I could\'ve been stronger, maybe he could\'ve stayed... But Michael said it was unavoidable... It\'s his destiny...

"My earliest memories are seeing my friends... Most of them are dead now..."

That\'s a half-lie. The part about his friends dying is likely true, but his earliest memories would\'ve been with his parents on Earth. Even now, he\'s trying to protect me from the truth.

"I know the truth, Cera."

There is a second where he loses altitude, and he has to regain control. He\'s probably thinking of a different truth, but I need to make sure he knows something.

"Before you say anything, just listen... There are things that you don\'t know about yourself... Things your family from Earth don\'t know... Remember that you\'ll always be my son..."

That\'s all I can say without giving up the secret that we\'ve been hiding. He doesn\'t respond, but I can see a look of deep thought on his face as I lay my head on his shoulder.

Cera knows that I know now. And that shouldn\'t make things so hard for him to talk about.

"How did you know?"

I expected this. But I don\'t know how to answer it... I wish I knew how... But I\'m going to do something I shouldn\'t. I\'m going to talk about some of the things I know... Just the small things...

"A mother knows everything about her child... I know about Violet, Christian, Marcus, and Hailey... I\'ve known about them for a lot longer than you could possibly know... I knew you\'d tell me when you were ready, but I don\'t know the next time I\'ll get to see you after all this..."

The reason I\'m doing this is cause this is the last full day I\'ll have with my son. I don\'t know the next time I\'m going to see him after this. And if I did, I wouldn\'t be talking about this now.

"I\'m more confused now than I\'ve been in a long time... What aren\'t you telling me?"

It hurts more than I can describe being asked that... I wish so badly that I could tell my son everything. But all I can do now is keep the secrets and make sure nothing more comes out.

"Let\'s just enjoy the trip now, Cera... It\'s nice to call you that for a change... For you to know that I know... So, can you be honest about your childhood?"

This time, I won\'t get any lies from him. And I\'ll know what his life was like.

"We were poor... But my Mom and Dad did everything they could to give us a good life... My earliest childhood memory was seeing Mom crying at the kitchen table... I later learned it was from bills they could never pay back..."

Wow... That hurts on way more levels than I expected... I was praying that he was given a good life, but Michael wasn\'t lying when he said he\'d be prepared for a hard life. Hearing him call another woman Mom... Stung... But I can\'t stop it.

"There were times that I\'d try to help in any way I could... Give money and make things easier... I couldn\'t make a difference until this all came along... After that, our lives changed for the better..."

There is a lot of time in between now and back then. I\'d love to hear more about what his life was like growing up, but I can tell that he\'s not really in the mood to talk about these things. They bring him a lot of pain too.

"Mom... Why has everything turned out the way it has... I\'ve been searching for the answer for a long time... But I\'ve gotten nowhere... Maybe you know..."

My spirit cracks as I hear him say that... The worst feeling is having the answers but not being allowed to tell them... I feel like I\'m going to puke from having to do this... It hurts fucking bad...

I have to physically cover my mouth to stop myself from talking... My Motherly instincts are trying to take over, but I can\'t let them. Radueriel can\'t know the truth yet. I don\'t know the grand plan The Almighty Father has, but I know it\'s going to be terrible for Radueriel.
