Sam's mom and I were having a conversation in our heads through the dinner.
Basic information. Where are you from and all that. It turns out her family and my family were one of the originals with the mind reading, Sam and I are not related. Thank god.
Sam knew something was up but he didn't ask. He only asked himself in his head about the awkward silence that was happening on the dinner table. He thinks me and his mom have tension. But really, her and I get along more then my mom and I get along.

After the dinner was over, I walked back home. Which was 30seconds walk.
I told my mom about Sam and his sister, how they're our new neighbors and go to my school.
She had an idea to invite them over this Saturday for a welcoming BBQ at our house. Inviting all of the neighbors.
I liked the idea. I wanted grandma to come too. To see people like us.
I called grandma before I went to bed. To tell her about Sam's mother and to invite her over this weekend.
''Hi nana! Guess what!?''
''Hey sweety...and what?'' I can imagine her smiling
''My new neighbor's mom reads people thoughts like us!'' I exclaimed myself. Happily...
''WHAT! Oh hunny. You can't . You can't . You have to move. You can't stay, they're bad people sweety...''
''.....Why nana?....I don't understand..aren't they like us...??'' I asked. Almost hyperventilating
''No...they're bad...''
''What do you mean ...aren't they original like us?''
''Is that what they told you..........Those liars. They always lie.'' She answered. With a grudge on on the corner of her words.
''But nana....I really don't understand...'' I said helplessly
''Sweet pumpkin, you'd never understand...''
''Well then explain to me! what happened that my neighbors are so bad!???''
''I can't tell you over the phone...I'm so sorry honey. I'll come down to Boston this weekend for this famous BBQ that your mother is having. And I'll tell you everything about the history of us and the history of...them.''She hissed at the last word.
''But I wanna know now...!'' I begged her, ''I can't wait 4 days nana!''
''4 days sweety! I promise!'' She said with a settle tone. ''Goodnight now...You have school tomorrow''
''uh....Okay...'' I gave in. ''Night''
''Wait, before you hang up. Promise me one thing!'' She demanded
''Yes nana?'' I asked.
''You'll stay away from their house! okay?''
''Why....'' I trailed off
''Let's just say you'd like to keep your powers and they'll try to.....''
''To what?????'' I anxiously asked
''They'll try to take it away from you.'' I was shocked with her answer ''No more questions! sweet dreams my lovely grandchild''
Click. She hung up.
I was speechless.
What does she mean by taking away my powers? Is that even possible?
I changed to my Pj's, drank some orange juice, brushed my teeth and climbed into my bed.
