Getting stuck in the future and being completely mute to the outside world. Would you want to get your Dad involved in that?" Once she had said it she completely regretted it. Her father was not something she wanted to bring up with him. She knew he was very sensitive to it as of late and she couldn't blame him- Brian James had just died.

Coughing to try to cover up her blunder she said, "Yeah it was about you. But I don't think that you want to know. It is nothing bad.. but if you want to know I'll tell you. Once I tell you though there is no going back."

Christopher took in a deep breath, still trying to understand her reasons for not telling her parents. Honestly, he thought that her decision would only hurt them AND her. "But they could help you learn to control your powers! It's
not like they'd try to take advantage of them! Selina, I think they should know. I mean, a family is the most important thing to a lot of people, and I don't think it's healthy to keep secrets from each other. Plus it could only hurt them and you, because keeping secrets can really hurt people," he said in that innocent little-kid way he spoke when he was being really genuine. His dad had some secrets too, but Christopher hadn't known this until after his Father's passing. Which was even more hurtful that he'd never been told about them.

The thirteen year old clenched his jaw and fixed his eyes back on the floor, pretending (doing a rather poor job of it) that he hadn't heard her. Though it was very clear by his face and Selina's rapid change of subject that he had.

"No, I don't want to know. I don't think I could handle it, quite honestly." He paused for a moment, thinking about the future and how Selina could see things that were about other people. "Does that mean you can see things about other people's private lives?" he asked in a more nervous tone.
