Hi, I'm Wynzy. When I was born, I felt that something was weird in my life. Kids as young as four are all trained to guide and protect kids the same age as them or younger than them. We are born to guide and protect someone, and most of them can't remember us or even see us. I remember when I was five, they gave me this boy. A clumsy one who cries any minute any day.
One time, his babysitter took him to a playground. He excitedly runs to a swing and stops in front of it. I just look at him confused when he starts crying. I teleported beside him to fulfill my job as his guardian but I didn't see anything that could make him cry... Of course, his babysitter ran to him and asked him what made him cry. He continues to cry while pointing to the dirt on the swing.
What? Can a guardian kick his butt? He's too dramatic.
On that night, I go home and rant about how I don't want that child. Right, I was like that since I was a child. I even ask to change him, a girl perhaps but that's not even possible. We only guide the opposite gender and I don't even understand why. The only thing I want right now is to change him to anyone. Just don't him.
I have a low patient for a guardian yet I don't know why I was born to be one. Sometimes, I feel like I'm the one who needs a guardian. Funny but here I am as one of them.
Weeks had passed and my mind still don't change. I don't like that boy. I still rant every day and even please them to change it so bad. Until, one day, I heard a piece of good news. It is possible to change the boy and give me a new one. I celebrate and excitedly ask who I'm going to protect and guide now. Yet, they still gave me a whole night to say goodbye to the boy before I had a new one. I did so fast that I don't even turn around when I said goodbye.
I continue my life being a guardian to a new boy. He's far similar to the kid before. He's timid and can't even break a bone. He's too quiet that even a mosquito will be shy to make a noise. It feels like he doesn't need me as a guardian because he's far from getting into trouble.
Due to boredom, I decided to pay a visit to the kid I was guarding before. His house is not too far and I can easily teleport to it. I smile when I smell the familiar scent of his room. I'm confused to find the things around his room in the right place. Being him, it isn't near possible.
I teleport downstairs hoping that he's there playing. To my surprise, he is there but he isn't playing. He's sleeping peacefully in front of numerous people inside their house. Some of them are crying including his parents. I'm shocked and can't believe what I'm seeing.
What's happening? I'm not around just for a week and this happens.
"Wynzy, you shouldn't be here. Go back to the kid you're guarding now.", I look back to see our Head Angel. She's calm as always unlike me who already has tears all over my face.
"What happened to him? Why is he lying there? Tell me!", I ask her while crying pointing to the casket where the kid is lying.
"You're not his guardian now. You can't ask about him.", She said looking at the casket.
"I was his—", I stop when she looks at me. It feels like she's ready to eat my soul.
"Yes. You were his guardian. Yet the time you loosen the hold on him was also the time you let him face the end of his life. Hope you understand and remember that Wynzy.", She said.
In a splash of bright light, I find myself in a white room. I thought it was a myth, a place where they isolate the unstable guardian. Now, I can't do anything but cry and wonder what will happen to that timid kid that I am currently guarding.
I am hoping that he wouldn't end up like him.
I'm sorry, I failed as a guardian.
