"That is our-" His dad was cut off by his mom.
"We don't know." She said flatly.
Hmmm. Based on the screaming that took place earlier, something tells me she'slying.
After about 30 seconds of an intense staring contest, my mom decided to punish me.
"You know what, just go to your room. Clearly, you have no intention of telling us why you moved this."
"Why the heck are you so mad when you don't even know what this is!" I retorted, knowing full well this comment would give me a few extra days of being grounded.
"We- Beca- gah... DON'T QUESTION US!!!" She stuttered.
I rolled my eyes. Whatever. As I walked back up the stair to my room, questions nagged me. What was in that chest? Why do they think I moved it? And what was that presence I felt down there? I hadn't mentioned it because I was already in enough trouble, but I couldn't help but feel like I was being watched.
I was back in my room, staring out at the sandy landscape I was trapped in. I always dreamed of getting out of this dump called Tatooine.
Back downstairs, I heard my mom and dad arguing. Hopefully not over me.
My dad always had my back. And I noticed he stayed quiet down in the basement. Maybe he disagreed? After a few hours of being stuck in my room gazing at the twin suns setting in the distance, I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. It was my dad.
"Hey Kit. Sorry about that earlier. Your mom really just doesn't want me to tell you."
"Tell me what?"
"You are... Force sensitive."
"I'm WHAT!?"
This explained so much. i often break things without touching them but I thought it was just a coincidence. I thought it had just fallen. But no. I was practically a jedi. My brain couldn't process this.
"You okay?" My dad asked.
"Okay? I'm great! This is awesome!"
But then a question dawned in my mind.
"Are you Force sensitive?"
"How about I show you?"
He lifted his hand and made my book stand open and close.
"Woah!" I said, not suppressing my astonishment whatsoever. "Will I be able to do that?"
"You already have."
A scream came from downstairs.
"KIT! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY MUG!!!"
