"I don't know why Mr. Longborrow has always hated you." Old Jara said.

"I think it's because of the incident." I responded. 

"Oh. Right." Old Jara said. 

I think the reason why he's hated me so much is when I was little I accidently froze the healers tent and it took three months for me to undo the spell. I wasn't fully in control of my powers. Mr. Longborrow (Isla's dad.) never forgave me for that. The rest of the town did, but not Mr. Longborrow. I mean it's understandable. His family owned the healing hut for like 10 generations. I don't think I'll ever get off the hook. 

Old Jara fetched his cane. He's leaving somewhere. 

"I have to take Lilla and Amber to the healer's hut for their checkup. Pebble's checkup is next Tuesday. I figured you should stay and watch him because of y'know." Old Jara said. 

"Yeah. Yeah. I got ya." I muttered. 

Old Jara left with Lilla and Ambers, leaving me alone with Pebbles. I just continued my work which was sowing a blanket for the orphanage. 

"What happened to you and Mr. Longborrow? What's the incident?" Pebbles asked. 

"I accidently froze the entire healers hut." I replied. 

Pebbles burst out laughing. I thought he might.

"How did that happen?" Pebbles asked.

"I was practicing my powers and Mr. Longborrow had an idea. He asked me to make ice cubes for ice packs. I was thrilled. I began practicing. For the first few minutes I made good progress. But then I started to loose control. The ice was getting larger. I tried to do one for pack of ice cubes, but it went south. I  completely lost control. The ice spread too much. Even though I tried to stop the ice, my efforts went down in flames. The ice covered the entire tent. I was stuck in the tent with Mr. Longborrow. It took three months for me to melt the ice." I told. 

"That sucks." Pebbles said. 

"Yeah it did." I said. 

Pebbles yawned and I tucked him into his bed. I think I need to get some fresh air.
