The Girl In The Painting
The Painting
Looking at the painting, she was amaze, mesmerized by the beautiful details put on the painting.
It was called -hundred years of romance- featuring a woman inside the painting, with stiff face, and dry glare. Even though the painting showed happiness, it was never the same when looking at the model.
She was unhappy, and tired. That her face didn't look any better.
Hedy
Yeah, the details was so amazing.
Dinah
Oh, you don't say so. Actually this painting is a hundred year old, made by an artist in 15 bc.
Hedy
No wonder the painting felt stiff, and the quality had decreased.
Dinah
The museum maintain the paintings, and it is cleaned through lot of process but despite being careful, sometimes old paintings would give up on its own as well.
Hedy
Ah, you must be Dinah? Famous art instructor?
Hedy
I hardly notice you there, I am Hedy, I've worked for NBI.
Dinah
No, no it's fine. The museum pays my accommodation in exchange of being an art instructor at the Reihan University.
Dinah
Oh, nice to meet you as well, are you here for work?
Hedy
Lot of people had been missing and the suspect is mostly all inside of the museum.
Dinah
Is this all about that girl inside the painting again?
Hedy
This painting was a suspect. We don't know if it is a prank set by anyone, or that there is behind this to shake the investigation of the NBI.
Dinah
The painting should be innocent as it doesn't much do anything. I don't believe such thing, so I don't think that the witness are in their right mind.
Hedy
I know, some of our witness told us about what they see. So I wasn't even sure if being here is called working anymore, I mean this are paintings, and maybe those witness are having any illusions at all.
Dinah
The world is such a strange place.
Hedy
May I ask, you have worked here right?
Hedy
You might not believe me, but don't you think the painting is kinda messed up?
Unknowingly of what was in front of them, Dinah saw the blood painted on the painting which it never had before.
Dinah
No, the painting had been touched! It shouldn't have those stains, I should call the gaurds.
Dinah
Please wait a moment
Hedy continue watching the painting. The blood painted on the painting suddenly increase, and seeing the whole scenario made her looked back.
Noticing those paintings melting on the ground, she panicked.
Hedy
Dinah! Something is wrong with the painting hurry!
But it was to late for her to run. Once the melted paint reach her shoe, the painting sucked her up.
Blue
The passing remains as the time tickles. A tale had been dismantled in a place far from its own. When she woke up that morning, blurry thought burned her eyes.
The beginning of her existence. The girl inside the painting. Rosalie Evelyn.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Guhhhhhhhh*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Head shaking*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
A dog?
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Who are you? Ah, did you just talk?
Blue
Good morning, my name is Blue. I was responsible for messing the timeline between modern and old.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Ah, I don't understand...
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Eh, what happened to my voice?
Blue
Calm down first, Hedy. I will explain slowly and clear.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
I will try so.
Blue
Once again, my name is blue, and I am a fairy god. You might think I am messing with you, but I am not.
Blue
I manage most of every thing you considered. Including world, family, power and etcetera.
Blue
But I am not the Supreme Being. I am just a tiny god, a dog, who will help you adjust to this new world or your new world.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Wh---
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Ah, sorry.
Blue
The painting you have seen brought you here by mistake. This is why I will do my best to make sure you live up in this world.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Look around*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
I know
Blue
Yeah, this is kind of an old place. This place reside long ago, a bc had passed between your modern time and this time.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
So, I am basically in this same world but in a different timeline?
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
W-what!?
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Shake head*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
No, this can't be, I need to get back to my own world.
Blue
That's unfortunate, the painting is such a strong force, even I do not have the power to redo what has done.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
I can't, you must help me, I have many things left in my own time. I cannot stay here, I have jobs, I have my own family!
Blue
I'd like to help you, I am honest, but this I cannot undo what has done by the odds of the other time. I am a fairy god, not the time god itself, but I do not think there is a way as well.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Looked down in desperation*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
How the hell did this happen to me?
Blue
Like I told you, the time itself was corrupted, the painting of your timeline is made of magical crystals of spells and barriers.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
What? Magic? Barrier?
Blue
This timeline is which magic existence had been known by few since the privacy of magic is an important matter to this era.
Blue
The painting was made at this time, or this era perhaps. This is why it created fraction, and all magical things aren't made perfect.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
No, how can this be? Magic? is an illusion created by human mind.
Inside A Magical World
Blue
I told you didn't I, if god existence was known, then god's power exist even to the known being.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
God is metaphor created by human mind, I did not believe its existence even now.
Blue
Then what do you call this event? Hallucination?
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
Errr
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
What!
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
This can't be? How?
Blue
You are such a slow person, but I do not appreciate you insulting god as a metaphor.
Blue
Yes, indeed that god is an old folk myth, but god was more than a magical block of mist. What do you call me then? A talking crazy dog?
Blue
God is just someone that had guided humanity to its path, and they made there way by evolutionary development.
Blue
He didn't mean you would worship him, he meant you to respect him. You did that yourselves, but God is not a metaphor.
Blue
Do not deny his existence.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
I did not deny his existence since he doesn't have the evidence of his existence.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
And maybe this is just another one of those crazy dreams. I will probably wake up, this is not real anyway.
Blue
Child... I am not happy of seeing you like this, and I wish I could send you back however that will be against the law of the universe.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
T-then, what can I do here? I am do not know how to live here? If you spoke truth, then I am unable to live here.
Blue
I can only help you with that.
Blue
Why not try seeing things in a bigger picture?
Blue
Do not judge base on what you know.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
*Gripped her hands*
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
What will happen by then? Will I die in this time as well?
Blue
Yes, as someone of this time but that's oddly because you are a person of the future.
Blue
You have possessed a body, appearance, and personality same as yours in your time.
Blue
Oddly I think this phenomenon was created due to confliction.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
What do you mean? Confliction?
Blue
Yes, a certain paradox that due to your past life that brought you here. You must be connected of perhaps the one in the painting in your past life.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
That's impossible...
Blue
That's possible child, ask even the god of afterlife, he would answer the same.
Blue
The paradox interfere and mistakenly took the soul back to its former life.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
W-what for?
Blue
Maybe to correct the mistake that has happened in this life of yours. To correct the wrong of the past or maybe to live a life you cannot do in the future.
Rosalie Evelyn Eclair
This is insane...
