The lady

The shadow was of a lady. She had the whole environment shining. There appeared to a halo surrounding her. She literally looked like an angel. That's when it hit me, "Am I actually dead? Is this some afterlife?". But I was confident that I wasn't dead because there was no way that I would have been ended up in heaven. No offense but I was really a hell type of person even as a kid. Heaven is boring.

The lady was observing me very closely as if she was trying to figure out something. After

few moments she moved her hand and placed it on my cheeks. I felt a very warm feeling in my stomach as if am was her child.

She stood there without spouting a single word and the silence was making me more and more anxious so I decided to break the ice.

I tried my level best to be polite to her given her godly like apperance."Excuse me ma'am but can you explain me the situation? Who are you and how did I ended up here?". The lady took a deep breath and said" Child, I am just a wandering spirit who takes care of this realm but how did you end up here? This is not a place where a child such as you can come and go easily. What is your name dear?"

I was still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that a spirit was talking to me but I had to get out of here so I had to gather a much information as posible and she was the only source right now. " My name is Cindy Kennedy. I don't know how I came here. I am pretty sure that I slept and somehow I woke up here. Can you please guide me for a way back?" .I was really anxious about how I ended here and just wanted to escape this place because the environment around me now was giving me chills. I tried to sound eager and desperate. The lady who also was surprised to see me here said " This is a world that doesn't need anyone approval how to enter and leave it only depends on you. You were found near the spring of melancholy that means that you were hurt before you ended up here. Do you remember anything?"

"I was not hurt I don't see any scars and don't feel any pain anywhere"

The lady gave a faint forced smile and a sigh

" It's true that you are too young to understand this type pain. Not all the scars can be dear. There does exist the type of pain where you aren't hurt physically but still it will hurt you so much that you would wish that the physical pain would be less painful"

I really had no idea what she was saying I was only 13 and never in my life I had anyone said something to me like this. My mother and father were too busy earning money and I had no siblings so no one gave me such lessons. As a child I was always curious but had no one to talk to so today there was someone who was willing and had time to answer my questions so I fought the courage and asked her many questions and the lady also did answer the questions patiently.

"Where does all this invisible pain come from?" She replied "Heart".
