Loving a Shadow
Author: Miru
( something I picked up from one of my dreams while sleeping)
It was a bustling morning as always in the town of Monarch, people travelling here and there someone looking for their goods
to arrive someone looking for travelling tickets , some opening up their stalls..
well my family owned a hotel hmmm can call it pretty luxurious with many rooms and floors
well furnished with eloquent ,antique and classy decorations etc and stuff ...😑 ..well I don't understand classics so I don't like to talk about it but my dad is crazy about them ...
I was standing outside the hotel's main door
while a little girl came running to me ... she was the cutest girl I ever saw with pure eyes and delicate body (im not a lolicin )...
when I asked her what did she wanted she replied " I'm here to reserve a floor for my family " and I was like ok come with me and then I was like 🤨 Reserve a floor ? " what a whole god damn floor !!! not just a room.!!"
well I always take my customers seriously so I asked her to wait for her parents..then from the back five figures were running towards the hotel the big looking husky man just held the little girl and started crying " Koi little girl where did you go papa was so worried (〒﹏〒)"...Then he looked at me like I was a wanted lolicin ....
OMG what the hell..!! .. why the hell is my heart beating so fast...!! reminding myself
" I like girls not men ..!! "
" I like girls not men ..!!"
" I like girls not men ..!!"
damn boooyy what the hell why does he look so handsome.!! me being like "so God you do have favourites ( ꈨຶ ˙̫̮ ꈨຶ )"
Then I explained to him that I help my dad run the hotel then his daggary eyes turned into a puppies eyes ... he said " I am sorry I hope my daughter didn't cause you troubles she's really smart but sometimes she just runs away to discover places ...😅 " and I was thinking in my mind " dman if you told me you were her brother I would still believe you "..
and he continued " I would like to rent a whole floor if you would like it to rent it to me "
damn I was going to say no but those eyes 😖..."
Then four figures came from the back
" honey where did you run off to don't be so naughty..!! your daughter is starting to learn form you.."
That was the time my eyes started shining filled with tears
" Is she a God ?"
" let me worship you "
....damn lady she was soooo beautiful..!! just like a Goddess..!!
Then there was a voice " dad where did you run to with little white ..? ( Nick name of the little girl) .....
" Damn boy what's up again why is he so good looking...( ꈨຶ ˙̫̮ ꈨຶ ) what's up with this family..!!! "
After him two figures followed
I was like
" oh God did you decent a set of your personal artwork collection ..??!!!!!! "
they were so mind blowingly beautiful young ladies ..! .. well what would you expect form the genes of those parents (╥﹏╥)...
when they came closer my heart was beating so fast I thought I was gonna burst and one of them loooked at me and gently smiled and I fainted with a nose bleed...
After I woke up I found out that they were really rich too dad reconstructed the whole floor (flat) for them, presumably they were important customers I guessed (and filthy rich too) ...well they were going live below our flat for quite some time I thought there was no need for rich people to live here without any reason ....well whatsoever everyone has their own reasons better not pry into them ..
My best days of life started ...!!! I used to hang out at their place after a month or so
they were really friendly tho both the parents acted like children well they were really good people after that we became really close and then a few months passed away in a blink of an eye ...
One day my mother fell I'll so dad had to take her to the medical capital of the country well after that all the damn responsibility of the hotel slammed into my head ...tho the manager did an excellent work I had to supervise sometimes..
During those times I used to take the kids of the family to various places in and around the town ...we became more closer my feelings for them stared to grow especially for those two sisters it was like I wished that this lasted forever ...cause I never used to have many friends .... there were people always either jealous or plotting against me , it was the first time I felt so free..
My parents returned after a month or so they brought various souvenirs and delicacies for everyone well our families were really close so ...we had dinner together that day it was really fun ..!!
At night after dinner when I was talking with my parents about their experience there they said that my mom simply had gastric due to eating some jungle Berry's and was healed in one day and I was like " these silly parents of mine ( ≧Д≦) 🤦" and then I asked them what were they doing for a whole month ?!!...they said
"well we visited various places had fun went to camping on the famous forest beside the city " ...well seems like they had quite a fun time I thought to myself..
then they continued to talk about their journey..blah ..blah..blah.... then they were suddenly excited
... " Hey kid you know while in the forest we got lost we came to a strange place it was really beautiful with beautiful flowers and trees full of lustrous fruits then there was a beautiful cottage it was soooooo beautiful..!! but it seemed like it was not maintained for some months or so ...later we got out of the forest we found out that where we were lost was a private land but there was no house or something there ...it was really strange ..but well it was really beautiful right honey..?"
I was like " hmm they must've been drunk so "...
well after that a few months passed it seemed like I was starting to fall for one of the sisters presumably the elder one well we became quite close too hehe as the elder brother seemed rather responsible he often stayed at home he said that he was into working from home so I would mostly spend time with the three sisters....as time went by I thought I should confess to her ..!!! and my brain was like
" the issue is not your feelings but your face ☺️ 🤧 "
( note : well actually this guy is quite hansome as well )
Well everyday was full of life and fun this became a way of living for me I was really blessed to have a life like this I thought
One day a huge earthquake hit suddenly it was really huge tho our place was protected by artifacts dad advice everyone one to go down , there was suddenly breakage of the light incantation of our hotel so there were glimmering lights ..
Then suddenly the whole place stared to shake more violently everyone was down in the pavilion dad said that it was because of some special frequently that passed the barrier so there were chances for the building to shake quite violently ... everyone was down except little white's family.....
I was sweating non stop thinking something happened to them .. without hesitation I rushed in crying their names I broke the door
I grabbed everyone and started dragging them down stairs for some reason they refused to leave and I was like " what the hell are you thinking you guys wanna die ?"
as I was pulling them down I looked back at them
In the flickering lights I saw something that I shouldn't have seen...I felt like I shouldn't have turned back ...my heart started swelling it started beating really fast then I fainted ..
when I opened my eyes I was in the warehouse surrounded by many people and when I looked up there was little white's family ,the dad of the family said little guy I know you have many questions but for now just rest a bit ...
The thing that I saw was not horrifing but it was more like it was like my mind and heart were muddled as I saw that their bodies disappeared along with the flickering lights they merged into the dark when there was no light as if there were shadows...
there were many questions like "were all those happy times just an illusion just like the fleeing wind in a storm ?" were all those happy moments and smile just an illusion or what was this ?"
"do they actually exist"
" why did their bodies disappear in low-light?"
" what was all that?"
" so is this some kind of twist in my love story which seemed like it finally started ?"
" did God add twist to my life cause it was on fourth season and started to go boring?"
There were many questions like this in my mind then they started to explain me everything they said that they were really famous alchemist of both medicine and artifacts and lived in a secluded land in a forest ...it hit my mind that maybe my parents were not drunk maybe that place was theirs ..
when I asked them what happened they answered " we had a happy life but suddenly one day someone came with a request to us it was to make an evil artifact we both refused but that person was consistent they started to pressure us ....one day it seemed like
it crossed their patients and with the help of an unknown artifact they sealed our bodies into our soul so our bodies disappeared in the dark and we started to travel from one place to another , but when we came here it seemd like effects of that artifact to lifted here for quite a bit so we decide to start a new life here ..."
"We wanted to pinpoint a reason why the effects lifted here but we never found out it seemed like it was closed in a illusionary space but still we continued to search "
"When you fainted your pulse started to grow dim so we had to give you a CPR it was an emergency so (๑•﹏•)...white's elder sister started to blush ..."
I was like " thankyou God for the earthquake I love you(≧▽≦)(≧▽≦) "
then they continued " I was afraid that I will not be able to touch your body in the dark and you might die but when I placed my hand in your heart our bodies started to appear back
but it was not permanent "
In a half serious and excited voice little white's dad started speaking " well it seems like there is an incomplete or rather a part of an artifact placed in your heart and it seems like it can reverse the effects of that evil artifact "
Well my mom used to say that my grandpa was an adventurer and an artifact collector so my mom has same hobbies as him but I never thought that he placed an artifact in my heart ..
Then they said " I'm sorry because of us your life drastically changed we will leave by tomorrow"
little white in a small voice said "help us "
I could not deny so now the adventures begins ....
(note : I'm sorry there are no names cause I forgot the names when I woke up this happens everytime )
