In the land of Maldos, the birth of the fraternal twins Bernum and Malkia was considered as a sign of perfection. Perfectly balanced. Yin and yang. But the birth of their deformed younger brother, Dennik, and the death of their mother was considered the ultimate of curses and the child was regarded as a demon by all except for his father, brother, and sister. The twins vow to learn magic to find a cure for Dennik--but in Maldos the equality of yin and yang is a facade. Only boys are allowed to openly study magic--so while Bernum goes off to the magic school Malkia must secretly study under a witch posing as a midwife. All goes well until Malkia's letters cease--and Bernum must find out what has happend to her. For what can harm a witch can just as easily harm a magician.
This is about a women who in her life was successful, but couldnt help wonder if she was still in the same place at the age of thirty something as she was in her twenty's. Kids at a young age, parents who let the world teach her and family that was pulling her from left to right and eventually down like "crabs in a bucket.
" "Rubber ducky, you're the one.
You make bath time lots of fun.
Rubber ducky, I'm awfully fond of you.
Rubber ducky, joy of joy.
When I squeeze you, you make noise.
Rubber ducky, you're my very best friend
It's true,"
My little sister, Heather, would sing. She would splash around in the bath tub, a cheerful and sweet smile on her face. Her cute dimples would show as I washed her hair with shampoo. I miss the days where I would always give her a bath. I miss the days were I got her small rubber ducky out of her toy chest. Now, that rubber ducky is my only remembrance of sweet little Heather, the one I will never forget." - Jacob Adam Payne.
As 5 year old Heather's only older brother, will Jacob take care of her and keep her safe? Go along with them through their emotional, heartbreaking journey through their hard life.
Rubber Ducky.
[f]
I suffered because I cared too much for him.
I got hurt because I protected him.
I ignored my feelings because I wanted him to be happy.
In the end I got blamed for being egoistic because it became too much. But still I love him even if he hates me. Isn't that the curse of being family? Not telling them how much you suffered for his happiness and not tell him what you did even if he blames you? Isn't that what makes you family? Is it a gift or a curse? It depends on yourself and your family!
