Bewitched His Soul

Logan was always up to some mischief and this time it was no different. A few weeks ago he had watched a Spiderman movie and he was fascinated by the superpower of the hero.

He very badly wanted to wear the Spiderman costume and who better than his uncle Gabe to fulfill his wish. Gabe wasted no time and had taken Logan shopping . After wearing the costume Logan was still not satisfied and felt something was amiss.

He wanted to do some tricks and started jumping from one sofa to another. It was kind of thrilling and seeing the mango tree in the garden he decided to climb it.

Now, it was lunch time and a few servants were gathered below the tree asking him to come down, but Logan refused to do so.

"Little master, please come down. Your father will be coming home soon, and he will not like what you are doing ," One of the maids tried to convince him.

"I am a Spiderman and I fear no one," Logan declared proudly. The tree was of medium height and if he fell he was surely going to get hurt very badly.

"Oh really?" A voice came and challenged him.

Enzo was returning from his footfall practice. He was wearing a t-shirt, white shorts, and a pair of sneakers.

He had sweated a lot and his hair was messy and wet, a few strands of hair were falling in his eyes. His tall and muscular figure could make any teenage girl blush. He did not how his younger brother can find so many ideas to torture everyone.

"Enzo, do you want to come up? It's really fun," Logan said with a cheeky grin.

"Sorry buddy, my definition of fun is surely different," Enzo rolled his eyes.

"Da went to the airport to pick mom up and if she is welcomed by this sight she will surely be pissed. You know dad never goes easy on anyone who troubles his wife, even if they are his children," Enzo continued.

Logan's eyes widened and asked,"You are lying right. Mom said her trip is for one week."

"Yesterday mom called me asking what gift I wanted," Enzo replied.

Logan looked hurt and accused, "Why didn't she talk with me. Will she not bring me a toy?"

"You were sleeping, don't worry I told her what type of toy you wanted." Enzo assured him.

Aurora had gone to another city to give a medical presentation. Her paper was chosen as one of the top five of the year. The trip's duration was one week but everything went smoothly and it ended in four days.

Aurora was so busy interacting with other doctors and discussing the current healthcare situation that she had no time to talk with her husband. Dimitri was missing his wife too much and personally went to the airport to pick her up.

Logan was relieved after hearing Enzo's response and replied,"Give me a little more time then I will come down."

"No, they are going to be here any moment, " Enzo came near the tree and extended his hand.

Loagn was stubborn as usual and refused to obey his brother. Both of them kept on arguing until they heard the horn of a car.

Dimitri was holding Aurora's hand and was slowly tracing each of her fingertips. He lifted her hand and placed them on his lips.

He placed light kisses on her palm which made Aurora turn red and turned her head towards the car window.

"What happened?"Dimitri frowned because a second later Aurora freed her hand.

"Look at Logan, I don't know what to do with him, " Aurora roared.

Dimitri looked out of the window and his temper rose. He put his hand around her shoulder and said,"Relax , I am here ."

"Mom, how are you, " Logan tried to act cute as his parents stood under the tree.

"Oh dear, I was fine until I saw you. What are you doing there? Come down this instant!" Aurora did not want to think what kind of trouble Logan had caused these past days.

"Mom, don't you know..," Enzo asked as if she couldn't even guess something so simple.

Well may be his mother was little bit dumb. He remembered his mother took two hours to assemble the Lego set whereas his father did it in half an hour.

At last he came to the conclusion that his mother is dim witted. Feeling sorry for her he decided to explain to her. He was not going to judge his mother as he loved her immensely.

"I am a Spiderman, I can jump, climb and run fast," Logan pointed towards his attire.

Aurora groaned and placed her hand on the forehead. "Logan baby, please come down. You cannot re-enact whatever they show in movies. Those stunts are done by professionals and sometimes edited on computer," Aurora explained in a soft voice.

He was trying to process what his mother said and did not move from his spot.

"Logan, did you not hear what your mother said?" Dimitri called harshly. Logan shivered seeing his father, he looked so scary, his eyes were narrowed and jaw clenching tightly.

"I will… will come down, " Logan gulped. When he decided to take a step further, he was paralyzed not knowing how to climb down.

"I will fall. I can't come down," Logan whined . He clutched the branch tightly, not knowing what to do. He realized he was scared of heights.

"Aren't you Spiderman? I thought nothing can scare you," Dimitri taunted him.

"Dad... please help me," Logan was petrified. How can his dad bully him during this time. He is so so bad.

Dimitri's eyes softened hearing his plea and he climbed the tree to carry his son down.

Aurora quickly took Logan in her arms and hugged him tightly.
