"You think? How can you not know how old you are?"

"I don't remember my human past, or well I choose not to."

I look at her with confusion. "What do you mean you don't remember your human past?"

I let out a small laugh, "I choose not to remember. I hated it and I don't want to remember."

"I'm still confused. I thought you were a mutant? Are you talking about before you found out you were a mutant?"

"Yes. I spent part of my lfe as a regular human. Most mutants do. Honestly It was about the first six years of my life."

"Well, I don't think your age has anything to do with your human past. And the way I look at it is you are always a mutant you just don't come into your powers until later in life. Even mutants celebrate their birthday."

"Not this mutant." I smiled. "We'll just guesstimate my age around 18. Keep it like that and drop the subject."

I shrug. "Okay."

"Sorry it's a touchy subject there."

"That's okay. I understand."
