"I don't have just one question, I have a thousand." Annoyance in your voice, you said. "Let's start with this 'magic book' I found with a note to me, from you in it."
You held up the book open for mom to see the note; she turned slightly pale then took the book from you and placed it onto her desk. "I am a witch, John." Softly, she said.
