My Reverse Life

As we fly through... I still keep wondering how is Lia able to fly if she is not an Esper.

"You seem to be wondering how am I able to fly..." I open my eyes wide stunned to hear what she just said.

"You can read minds after all... don't deny it... I know now for sure."

"As I said, I just know you well enough to guess what you are thinking. I can't read minds."

"Yeah yeah... I 'BELIEVE' you."

"If you don't believe me... then believe what you believe. I have no problem with that." Said Lia in nonchalant manner.

" I said I 'BELIEVE' you... So say... because you already know what I've been thinking. How do you fly if you are not an esper?."

"Magic." A simple answer.

"Seriously... are you joking?... Seems like you did not want to answer my question."

"No... I mean literal magic."

"Wait... a real magic exists?." I am surprised at the revelation.

To which Lia responded looking at me weirdly.

"Hey... why do you look at me like that?"

"I just can't believe how dumb you become."

"Excuse me... dumb?... me?..." I said angrily.

"Esper power is basically magic too... magic that already written then spread across to the people. Similar to a magic scroll, but the spell is engraved at their soul." She explains.

"I don't know that... to which that makes me dumb?." I said while frowning angrily at her.

"No... I called you dumb because you are surprised at the existence of magic. All the supernatural things around you, why did you never think of it might be caused by magic?." Lia said.

"Certainly... but why you called dumb just because of that."

"Is dumb for not even considering magic existed. I mean look at you... did you really have multiple power as Esper or casting magic without realizing it."

"Are you saying that I am not an Esper but a witch like you?."

She then looks at me for a while... I could clearly see her eyes twitching. She then says..." I will say yes for now." With a hint of annoyance in her tone.

"Why did you say it like that?..." I ask her.

"Shut up... you cheating b*tch."

This girl just keeps insulting. Seems like we know each other, but we are not friends?.

"What do you mean by that!!... Why do you keep insulting me? Do you have a grudge with me?."

"Yes... I have... in fact, we have a love-hate relationship."

Love-hate relationship?... seems like I have a complicated past with her.

"We have arrived... FINALLY." She said.

Wow... indeed, we have arrived. I didn't even notice it.

"Let's go to the mall plaza quickly, Irana probably has been waiting for a long time."

I simply nod at her word... and follow her descending toward the mall plaza. Conveniently, this mall plaza. When we were already near to the ground, I saw Irana. She's weirdly still wearing her Halloween costume. The Ice princess costume.
