Chapter 4

Ianto glanced at his mum while she looked out of his bedroom’s window one more time, he could see how she twisted her hands with so much force that they were red from the effort, while her eyes were fixed in a point outside the window. He could almost swear that she hadn’t blinked for more than an hour and he tried to remember anything out of the ordinary that could have happened to get this reaction out if his mother, but the only thing that came to his mind was their neighbor’s house and nothing else.

He watched at the boy while he watched him, straight in the eye without blinking. Ianto couldn’t understand what his problem was, maybe the house had a strange effect on the people that lived there. And suddenly he remember her mother’s face after an encounter with Ms. Johnson or as his sister and him called her, ‘the telephone lady’ who could spent several hours at their phone sitting comfortable on his mums green chair, with her legs crossed tapping her foot against the floor; toc, toc ,toc.

He could remember his mum’s red face while his father put his hands over his ears with a smile on his face, he could see her mother passing from one side to the other of the room, he couldn’t hear her but he could see her lips moving and her arms flying around, pointing at their neighbor’s house. But his parents had taught him to be respectful, so he did just that, he extended his right hand and put a smile on his face.

'Hi, my name is Ianto, it’s a pleasure to meet you’ He kept his hand in front of him, waiting for the boy to decided what to do with his offer. Cai lowered his eyes and looked at the hand that was being offer to him and he took a decision, he grabbed Ianto Jones’ hand.

‘Hi, my name is Cai, it’s a pleasure to meet you,’ He repeated what the boy said to him a moment ago and smiled too. Not matter what Cameo could think or the changes that knew were going to came with the simple decision of taking Ianto’s hand. Because it was really easy for him, it had always been, if someone or something stood in his way, he just… made them disappear even a planet if it was necessary.

Suddenly he felt the other one presence, the person who had the same blood as Ianto Jones, he let go of Ianto’s hand and looked up at her with a smile on his face, and while she glanced at him with a confuse look on her face, he took the second decision of the day, he decided to scream, so he did it, he screamed in her little mind words she knew she was going to understand.

HE IS MINE

The screams sounded in every corner of her mind and without realizing what he was doing, he broke her mind a little in the process, papers started to scatter around with the wind that came with the boy’s voice and folders disappeared completely, losing parts of all the things she had been archiving over the years.

Ianto looked at her mum, while she looked with wide eyes at the boy who was in front of him.

‘Mum, are you all right?’ he asked, she took a second but she turned her head around to look at him and at seeing his worried face, she sighed and smiled at him.

‘I’m all right, why don’t we go home? I have to prepare dinner’ she said to him while she started to tap her fingers against her hip.

‘Okay’ but she just walked pass him without saying goodbye to the people who live in the house, she opened the door and she continued to walk without looking back. Forgetting every promise she had made to herself or him.

Ianto said goodbye to his new neighbors and ran after her mother.

Cameo looked at Cai and opened his mouth to speak but no sound came out of it and he grabbed his throat in surprise.  ‘I don’t want to hear what you have to say’ Cai said while he walked up to his room.

Ianto got up from his bed and walked over to where his mother was standing; he looked at her and grabbed her red hands between his fingers.  Meredith looked at their joint hands and squeezed his son’s fingers but she couldn’t forget what she had seen and she was scared, not only of the boy who lived in the house next to her but for the boy who was in front of her. Because for a moment when the scream ripped her mind and the papers flew without order, in the pure chaos, he had gave her a gift, an image of what it was going to come, one possibility of millions but it was enough.

The image of a man in a suit standing right next to a man with blue eyes in a long coat, looking at what she could only describe was the end of the world.
