CHAPTER 43: A MIRACLE

Back in Zlila, Julian was sad after sending off Juanita. He wanted to spend more time with her but too bad the girl after his heart left him here.

Since Juan was given the gifts to give his mother and himself, he felt better and drove his car back to the Pope’s mansion. At least his mom didn’t make fun of him and comforted him.

He gave his mother the sack of rice and the woman was elated, “I thought she was teasing me but I am glad that she wasn’t.”

When he took out the water, Eve raised her eyebrows, “is that the famous water you told me about?”

Julian chuckled as he looked at the funny expression on his mother’s face, “yes, the water is simply magical. You should have some and leave some for me.”

“Okay, I will take just 2 liters and you get the rest,” Eve negotiated.

Julian wasn’t someone who would say no to his mom but that also didn’t make him a momma’s boy as he was someone who would follow his heart on most things and she will let him do anything he wanted.

Julian went to his room and threw himself on the bed, he could only comfort himself with the photos others posted about Juan. The more he looked at that angel the more he felt that his body was burning.

This sensation was very familiar; he was not an innocent young man. Before he became impotent from nowhere, he used to tumble with several ladies in bed.

It was too bad that the person he wanted to make love with wasn’t with him and he couldn’t do it with her at the same time. But whenever he drank her water, something will always happen.

And he had been drinking this water for three days straight and now with 3 liters to himself, he wondered what more miracles will happen to him.

The maid brought his water to him and he looked at it as a ferocious wolf. He filled his water glass with water and gulped it all down. He felt his little brother reacting, he quickly stripped his bottom part and looked with a dumbfounded expression as that little brother of his that had not stood up for a very long time made its way up.

He was a man who rarely cried, even when he learned of the news that his little brother wasn’t working anymore and when that fiancée of his broke the engagement, he shed no tears.

He only cried that one time when he was sixteen, he lost something dearer to his heart but because he was young and a bit too late, he failed to get what he wanted.

He lost the battle before he even fought it. He cried and went clubbing that night. It took him a while to get back to himself but it was also at that time that he became a playboy.

To him, it no longer mattered which woman he has in his bed since he could no longer have the only woman he loved and wanted to be with. Losing that graceful crush of his changed his life completely and he became who he was but who knew that he will become impotent before he tasted a lot of women?

Anyway, that all didn’t matter now, since he has a chance to get better, he was going to take it. He was going to be loyal and give his heart to Juan and make sure that he cherishes her to the very end.

His little brother only stood up for a short while but that was enough for him. He put on his clothes and rushed outside, Eve who was busy instructing the chefs about the rice nearly got a heart attack seeing how in a rush her son was being.

“Darling, how many times did I tell you to take it easy and don’t rush?”

Julian flashed his mother a smile before dragging her to her private study where they couldn’t be disturbed.

“Mom, I need you to watch something,” he spoke excitedly as his one hand was holding a glass of water.

“What is it?” Eve asked anxiously seeing that her son was up to something.

Julian didn’t answer but drank the glass of water right in front of his mom. His eyes were closed and soon he felt it once more, he opened his eyes excitedly and took his mom’s hand.

Was he embarrassed doing what he was about to do? Yes, he was. But this woman was his mother who knew his body more than himself. Eve didn’t know what her son was up to but when her hand came into contact with that part of her son’s body, she flushed.

“You are an adult and yet you are acting like a hooligan!” Eve was so angry that she wanted to hit her son on the head.

“Mom, just stay still and wait,” Julian coaxed his mother who was red with fury.

“Fine,” with gritted teeth she said but deep down in her heart, she was crying.

Her son couldn’t even make his pengornis stand so why was he acting like this?

Was he trying to make her feel sad and cry because they failed to find someone who can treat him?

Her mind was making all sorts of conspiracies but when she felt her hand move, she froze and looked at that part of her son’s body. Her hand and that part were separated by clothes but she could feel it as it moved.

The two of them stood there as tears streamed down Eve’s cheeks. The little brother stood for a minute this time and it was a bit longer than before.

“Darling, what…..what is going on here?” Eve asked as she cried while holding both of her son’s hands.

“Mom…..at first I thought it was all a hallucination but now I am sure. It is this water….this happens every time I drink it. Isn’t this miraculous?” Julian was so happy that he didn’t even notice it when his tears streamed down his cheeks.

Even who knew and understood the struggle and pain her son went through and was in these past two years, hugged her son and comforted him. The two hugged each other for a long time until they were both numb while standing.

“I need you to tell me everything!” these were the words that James barked at Julian when he returned home after receiving the good news from Eve.

Julian retold everything to his dad and even stripped himself and showed his father the live proof and after taking another glass of water, it lasted longer than a minute and this made James, the steel man cry.

It was a happy day for the Pope’s family that called for a celebration party.
